Versatile Mage:I have 999 Talent

Chapter 8 Qingtian Hunting Agency's Entrustment, Xinxia's Birthday Gift

  "Little girl, does your hunting agency only look at age and not strength?" Wang Feng asked back.

  "At your age, what strength can you have? Don't make trouble." The little girl waved her hand, her tone full of disdain.

  Wang Feng couldn't help but twitch his mouth when he heard the little girl's words.

  He had imagined countless possibilities, but he never expected that he would be disliked by a little girl who looked only nine years old for being "too young".

  At this moment, an old but full-bodied voice came from the stairs: "Lingling, here for a commission?"

  As soon as the voice fell, an old man with a slightly hunched figure slowly walked down the stairs.

  He held an old pipe in his hand, with a kind smile on his face, but his eyes revealed an unfathomable sharpness.

  "Grandpa, it's not a commission, it's an application. But at his age, I'm afraid he's just a high school kid, how can he have any strength." Lingling curled her lips, her tone full of disdain.

  Song Qiming walked slowly to Wang Feng, took a puff of his pipe, exhaled a circle of smoke, then said with a smile:

  "It's good to be young, as the saying goes, a newborn calf is not afraid of a tiger, it's not afraid of anything. It's just a pity if you die, you haven't enjoyed life yet."

  Song Qiming looked at him with a smile, and asked slowly: "Young man, what's your name? Where are you from? What is magic?"

  Wang Feng took a deep breath, suppressed the helplessness in his heart, and answered concisely: "My name is Wang Feng, from Bo City, and I'm a healing mage."

  "Bo City?"

  "Healing?"

  The grandfather and grandson showed surprised expressions at the same time and said in unison.

  Song Qiming shook his head, with a bit of regret in his tone:

  "Wang Feng, although the healing system is rare, in our Qingtian Hunting Ground, hunters usually work in teams of two, and the use of healing mages is not very large. Otherwise, you can go to other hunting grounds to have a look?"

  Wang Feng smiled slightly, and then said:

  "I am not only a healing mage, but also a summoner, and I have a general-level summoned beast."

  "General-level?!" Lingling widened her eyes and looked at Wang Feng in disbelief.

  Song Qiming also showed an interested look and touched his chin: "Intermediate mage? That's not impossible."

  After he finished speaking, he turned around and took out a commission from the counter and put it on the counter:

  "Since you have a general-level summoned beast, this commission is perfect for you. Just right, just treat it as your entry assessment."

  Wang Feng picked up the commission curiously and read it carefully.

  [Commission content: Clear a nest of cave demon slaves located at the border of Anjie outside the suburbs of the Demon City. 】

  【Commission: Five million】

  【Client: Modu Mu Family】

  Seeing the content of the commission, Wang Feng's eyes flashed with surprise: "Is this... a commission from a noble family?"

  Lingling crossed her arms and said as if she had seen through everything: "I know what you are thinking. As a noble family, you don't have the manpower to eliminate a mere nest of demons, right?"

  "Isn't it?" Wang Feng asked back.

  "Of course not." Lingling snatched the commission, with a bit of sarcasm in her tone:

  "Common people will never understand what these stupid noble families are thinking. They always come up with some tests for their juniors, and arrange a project that is not very profitable for them to handle, under the euphemism of 'exercise their abilities'."

  Lingling paused and continued: "Of course, these young masters and young ladies of noble families are not short of money. They basically spend money to hire an elite hunter team to protect themselves."

  She curled her lips, with a bit of sarcasm in her tone: "To put it bluntly, it's just a formality to 'see' it. And this commission is one of them!"

  After listening to Wang Feng, he suddenly realized it and couldn't help shaking his head and laughing: "Sure enough, I, a commoner who started from scratch, will not understand the thoughts of the dog rich."

  However, understanding is understanding, which does not prevent him from making this money.

  A gleam of light flashed in Wang Feng's eyes, and he said decisively: "Okay, I'll take this commission!"   

  Song Qiming nodded and smiled with satisfaction:

  "Okay, then I will help you contact the client. Tomorrow morning, come here again, and I will tell you the specific task details and the meeting place."

  Wang Feng responded, then turned and left Qingtian Hunting House.

  ...

  Wang Feng returned to the apartment, opened the door and saw Ye Xinxia sitting on the sofa in the living room with her phone in her hand.

  Her little face was flushed, and her eyes were a little shy and hesitant, as if she was struggling with something.

  "Xinxia, what are you looking at?" Wang Feng asked with a smile.

  Ye Xinxia was startled by the sudden voice and hurriedly hid the phone behind her.

  She stammered, "Nothing! Brother Wang Feng, isn't your birthday coming up in a month? I'm picking out a gift! Yes, picking out a gift!"

  Wang Feng raised his eyebrows and deliberately showed a sly smile, "It's just picking out a gift, why is your face so red? Are you looking at something weird?"

  "No, no! I'm really picking out a gift!" Ye Xinxia's face became even more rosy, like a ripe apple.

  Wang Feng couldn't help laughing when he saw this. He walked to Ye Xinxia and gently rubbed her hair.

  He said gently, "Okay, pick it. I'm looking forward to the birthday gift you prepared for me, Xinxia~"

  After that, he kissed Ye Xinxia's forehead gently, then turned back to the room and began to practice.

  When Wang Feng's door was closed, Ye Xinxia breathed a sigh of relief and quietly took out her phone.

  On the screen, there was a search record: [How can I make myself into a 'cake'].

  Her face instantly turned redder, and her fingers unconsciously twisted together, feeling shy and expectant.

  "Is this...really possible?" Ye Xinxia whispered to herself, with a complex light flashing in her eyes.

  Then Ye Xinxia clicked on the link again and started to study.

  ...

  The next day, Wang Feng set out on the road to the million-dollar commission early.

  However, there was a little loli with twin ponytails beside him - Lingling.

  Lingling held a cup of freshly squeezed juice from "Shanghai Young Lady" in her hand, sucking on the straw happily, and occasionally making a satisfied "gulp" sound.

  Originally, Wang Feng thought that the five million commission would be firmly in his pocket, but he didn't expect Lingling to show up halfway and ask for half of the commission as soon as they met.

  What made him most depressed was that he couldn't refuse, because the rule of Qingtian Hunting House was to act in groups of two.

  "One day, I will take back everything that belongs to me (the commission)!" Wang Feng raised his head, his eyes a little wet.

  ...

  After going around in circles, the two finally arrived at the border of the Demon City Anjie.

  This is an uncultivated wilderness, and lush forests come into view.

  At the entrance of the forest, there were two women standing. They looked 50% similar, but their temperaments were completely different.

  One of the women was wearing clothes in the style of the Han and Tang Dynasties, with long hair draped behind her. She was as gentle as water, as if she was a beauty from an ancient painting.

  However, there was a hint of shrewdness in her eyes, and it was obvious that she was not as simple as she seemed.

  The other woman was wearing a neat outfit, with her wine-red hair tied up high, looking very heroic.

  But there was a bit of softness between her eyebrows, which formed a sharp contrast with her neat dress.
