The kindhearted Holy Son Zu Pengpeng, the Death Spirit Flower, and the Corpse-Eating Earthworm Demon

Yun Che walked up to Leng Ding, who was shaking like a leaf, and asked, "Wasn't Zu Pengpeng the Divine Lotus Order's Holy Son? How did it become you?"

Leng Ding looked startled. He had not expected the other man to know about Zu Pengpeng.

"Talk. Where is he?"

Faced with Yun Che's questioning, Leng Ding, with no one to turn to, could only answer truthfully.

"Uncle De crippled Zu Pengpeng and dumped him at the mass grave outside the city. He might already be dead by now."

Yun Che nodded and casually ended his life with a slash of his sword.

"Ding! Congratulations on triggering an S-rank hidden quest. Accept?"

[Time limit: One hour]

[Quest rewards: Divine Lotus Order's Divine Lotus Petal x1, 100,000 experience points]

Yun Che froze briefly, not expecting another S-rank hidden quest.

He had sought out Zu Pengpeng mainly because this fat NPC was kindhearted. When Falling Moon Academy had been destroyed, this fatty had taken in those homeless students.

Although that had only been a scripted sequence played out by the program, a person's fundamental nature presumably would not change-his good big brother, for instance.

"One hour. That's a little tight!"

"I hope I can rescue this fat NPC, or this whole trip will have been for nothing."

After leaving a few instructions, Yun Che swiftly flew toward the mass grave on the outskirts of the city.

"The reward is actually a Divine Lotus Petal. That's quite a nice treasure."

The Divine Lotus Petals were the Divine Lotus Order's sacred treasures. There were nine in total, and each was said to possess an incredible ability. Each one used meant one fewer remained.

The Divine Lotus Order owed its enduring prosperity
