Old man Wang took note of Lin Feng's entrance and greeted him cheerfully causing a bit of a sting to Lin Feng's heart. 'Hello young man, it's good to see that you have finally gotten rid of your demons and gotten back to your old self'
Lin Feng let out a nervous chuckle, 'Haha! thank you but I was fine even then and I'm fine now'
'I was just out to experience the beauty of nature'
'Oh! That you would do that at your age is commendable. To live at the lowest possible point to comprehend your heart is a profound state'
Lin Feng guffawed , his bullshit was taken in stride. He wasn't sure if old man Wang was pulling his leg. Without wasting anymore time , he reached out for a basket of buns and held them at his side. 'Sorry old man Wang but I'll be stealing these' he said while smirking to spite the old man.
Old man Wang was dumbfounded by the sudden change of atmosphere and didn't know how to react for a while. 'You little piece of shit' his tone immediately changed. 'Come back here! ' he shouted while rushing to the door.
Lin Feng was prepared to run and had already escaped to let the news spread a bit. The mission conditions didn't explicitly imply that getting caught entailed going to jail so he only planned to be seen stealing rather than getting caught and lynched. In two hour with Old man Wang's incitement the news had spread to all nearby shops. 'This kid has unfortunately gone mad for sure'
'I was a bit skeptical at first but it seems highly likely, to be thiefing despite not needing to is indeed a bit worrying'
'Maybe we should contact the sect to come and detain him'
Such whispers reached Lin Feng making him sweat a little. If the sect members came for him he couldn't be sure if they would get rid of him to maintain their reputation or if he would be detained. Detaining him would lock him out of completing further missions and he couldn't be sure when this crazy system would change for another.
'I have to rush and complete this mission at least before the sect comes for me so that I can at least have a foundation if I'm locked up'
Lin Feng immediately put his plan to action and for the next 30 minutes shouts could be heard in the surrounding areas as a crowd had formed behind him and was chasing him as he went ahead and completed his mission.
Most of the shop owners were mortals and thus were unable to catch up to him despite their maximum efforts. After completing the mission, he ran into the dark forest outside the town to hide.
[Mission reward: darkness sword intent, wind sword intent]
'I'm in trouble this time around, the mission rewards at least seem decent though'
[darkness sword intent: rudimentary sword intent aligned to the darkness law]
[wind sword intent: rudimentary sword intent aligned to the wind law]
'Sword intent sounds powerful. From basic knowledge it's only possible to master two due to time and cultivation talents so I'm already ahead of many'
The swords of the hidden sword were given their monikers depending on the type of sword intent they were most proficient in but that didn't mean it was the only one they had.
