Cai Ming had not expected that the mission she had been assigned would turn out like this. Originally when she had been assigned a mission by her mistress, she had rejoiced. It had been a long time since her mistress had looked to her other than sometimes at night, but now she was finally back in her eyes.
The mission was very simple. She merely had to spy on the mistress's younger brother. She even got the location where he was heading to and where he would likely head to after that.
While she didn't really have to do anything other than observing and recording the actions of the Mistress's Younger brother, the location that the target was going to was quite dangerous… The Dread Coil Marsh.
But of course, Cai Ming could not help but accept the mission given to her and went on it right away. Her mistress had even given her some life preserving treasures and spirit tools that would assist her.
And it was not as if she was weak. She was an Infant Soul stage Nascent Soul realm cultivator. Even her mistress was in the Nascent Soul realm, but she could not tell what stage she was in exactly.
The only thing Cai Ming knew for sure was that her mistress was far stronger than she was. Among the other subordinates of her mistress, Cai Ming ranked third and she had two more senior sisters that ranked higher than her.
Her strongest senior sister was at the Child Soul Stage of the Nascent Soul realm, but even she was no match for their mistress. All of them had been brought up by their mistress ever since they were little girls.
Her mistress had recognized their hidden talent and nurtured them to become the cultivators they were currently. Even back then, their mistress was at the Nascent Soul realm, so it showed just how powerful she would be right now.
After setting out on the journey, Cai Ming found it to be relatively smooth. Even when she entered the Dread Coil Marsh, she was not troubled by the beasts and the ghosts. The treasures that her mistress had given her were able to keep her hidden from the perception of the Marsh Ghosts and other beasts.
Even when she was within a hundred meter radius of the target, he could not see her. This, along with the unique conditions of the Dread Coil Marsh where the spirit sense was greatly suppressed, made it easy for Cai Ming to spy on the mistress's younger brother.
It was safe to say she got to see several secrets of the target. The biggest of them being the unique Crystal spear that the man used. He called it the Immortal Crystal Armament that could transform into multiple different forms of weapons.
Cai Ming had actually been injured a few times by the attacks of the weapon when she had been accidentally within the range of its attacks. The attacks of that Immortal Crystal Armament were fierce and hard to heal.
They contained a strange aura that could taint her flesh and make it harder to heal and for spirit Qi to flow. Had it not been for some of the good quality healing pills that her mistress had given her, Cai Ming may have been crippled a couple of times.
From that moment onwards, she had become greatly cautious and kept her distance from the target. She finally understood why her mistress had asked her to spy on her younger brother and given her this mission.
The mistress's younger brother was no less talented than her and could even be considered to be a bit more powerful. Cai Ming was sure that if they went to battle head to head, she would be unable to last long. She had already seen the Mistress's brother fighting multiple beasts and humans that were at the Nascent Soul realm together and win.
Even without the Immortal Crystal Armament, he was powerful. But then something unexpected had happened. She had to get away because of the large number of men that had appeared in strange garbs.
They could somehow detect her and were following her around. Not wanting to get caught, she decided to retreat for the time being. But that turned out to be a mistake and she lost her target.
But she had also felt a really strong spirit Qi fluctuations from the location of the target and Cai Ming knew something must have happened. Sadly, by the time she got there, the target had disappeared.
But the scene was quite disastrous. There were dead bodies lying around everywhere, with some of them being scorched to death. The area was greatly burned as well and had hardened into a rock.
There was the remnant of the temple there which she could see but did not know what it was exactly. Fearing that she may have failed her mission, she decided to search around the Dread Coil marsh more. But no matter where she went, she couldn't really find anything even after two days.
Finally, she understood that it was best she headed to the next location that the target was going to head to and wait there. And after having waited there for a few weeks, this is the situation that she ended up in.
Cai Ming's eyes were glazed over as blood spilled from her lips and nose. Half of her body was gone and half of it hanging out of the mouth of the crystal beast. The moment she had been stopped was the moment her fate was decided.
"Why… Forgive me, mistress… I failed you…" Cai Ming said her last words.
~CRUNCH~
Her entire body disappointed into Lin Wu's mouth as he finished eating. A rush of memories appeared a few seconds after he had eaten Cai Ming, and he learned of everything that she knew.
"Oh? Didn't expect this… a spy for Shirong's second sister, Ji Xiaolian. And she has been following us all this time without coming to my notice…"
