Chapter 1649 - Whoever Accepts, Dies
Chen Fan reclined against the wall beside a second-floor window, gaze drifting outside as his thoughts wandered.
Suddenly, furious shouting erupted from the floor below.
“Damn, what bad luck!”
“How many times now? Every single time we confirm an early-stage Immortal King demon nearby, and by the time we arrive, someone’s already beaten us to it and killed it. Fuck. Let me find that bastard, and I’ll skin them alive.”
“We moved fast enough, Boss, but they were still quicker. And they took down an early Immortal King demon before we even got there. Whoever it was, they definitely aren’t weak.”
Amid the shouting, two men entered.
The leader appeared very young, in his mid-twenties, with a look of viciousness. Behind him was a man with an honest, kind appearance who looked to be in his thirties.
What drew Chen Fan’s attention was the fact that both of them were in the early-level Immortal King realm.
However, he could tell from their murderous qi that they were used to killing experts in the same cultivation level.
“Oh, right, Boss, the Sky Fire Merchant Guild sent us an invitation. Do you want to go?”
“Go my ass! Fucking hell! Do you want me to die early?” The man who looked to be in his twenties cursed, “Don’t you know? That woman’s invitations are like the Grim Reaper’s death warrant. Anyone who goes will die. How many Immortal Kings have died recently? If you want to die, then you go. Becoming their revered elder? Hmph, hmph, is that seat that easy?”
“Then I’ll decline it for you. We haven’t been back in a long time, Boss. Do you want to try challenging the Stone of Chaos? If you can get a high enough rank, you’ll have no trouble getting missions. We’ll have plenty of missions waiting for us then.”
