Lin Wan Er thought for a long time before saying, "Me, you, as well as Dong Cheng Yue. The three of us will start this quest together. Let's clear all the beginning quests such as entering the quest zone, and then we'll get the rest of them."

"Ok then, it's up to you. Oh yea, what about Yuzi Chengshuo, can we trust her?"

Lin Wan Er couldn't help but laugh, "Don't worry about her. She was one of the top Healers in < >, and definitely the strongest Healer right now. So instead of worrying about her, why not just hope that your guild members have enough strength to endure. Hurry up and join my party. We'll start the quest now."

"Sure!"
......

I accepted the invitation and saw that the party was in Fan Shu City. Lin Wan Er and Dong Cheng Yue's location indicators pointed toward the west which was the direction of Fan Shu City.

"Hehe, I can finally meet Li Xiao Yao again in game." Dong Cheng Yue was happy as she started moving.

Lin Wan Er was silent as she quickly opened the Ran Wei Provision Order. The next moment, the system prompted: Congratulations, you accepted the SS rank quest [Five Barbarians Barren Hills]!

Quest information: First, in Fan Shu City, look for a man named Ran Lin, one of Ran Min's descendants. He is one of Fan Shu City's storytellers. Learn from him the exact location of Hero Ran Min's crypt, and then search for it in the Five Barbarians Barren Hills. Then, in Ba Huang City, find a blacksmith named Feng Ye. Have him build a giant key using the quest map. This will open the Emperor's tomb. Only upon finishing these, one can take the true journey. Please bring your friends as death will always be around the corner.

"This quest information." I muttered loudly, "Five Barbarian's invasion. Sigh, it's about this."

Dong Cheng Yue wondered, "What is Five Barbarian's invasion?"

Lin Wan Er asked, "Li Xiao Yao, you also know what Five Barbarian's invasion is?"

I smiled, "Ah, yes. I do know about its history, but it is quite heart-wrenching."

Dong Cheng Yue asked, "So, what is its history?"

Giving the history an air of mystery, I said, "During the ancient Eastern Jin Dynasty, the Barbarian tribes invaded the Central Plains. They spread bloodshed in the Han's lands, causing its population to be reduced by 75%. Those Barbarian tribes were very savage; they grabbed tens of thousands of Chinese women. Also, 50,000 innocent Chinese people were cooked in just one winter by those animals for food. That period was one of the most horrible parts of Chinese history."

Dong Cheng Yue opened her eyes wide, "What ... what happened next?"

I continued, "This was one of Hero Ran Min's greatest humiliations, hence he created an army to punish the Five Barbarian tribes. Fighting for justice and peace, he was a famous war figure and made a path of blood towards the lands of the Barbarian tribes as he obtained a series of victories against those savages. Even the Five Barbarian tribes trembled upon hearing of his arrival. It is said that his army massacred over 50,000 barbarians, however..."

"However what?" Dong Cheng Yue was somewhat excited.

I said in a low voice, "However, the Five Barbarian tribes combined their forces to strike at Ran Wei's lands. One day, Ran Min led 10,000 people out of the city to collect grain taxes. But he was suddenly surrounded by 150,000 tribesmen led by Mu Rong Jun of Xian Bei, one of the Five Barbarian tribes. He was eventually captured, but before he died, he said some words to Mu Rong Jun."
