Chapter 3068 — Hiring a Guardian
The Blossom Guardian · Page 2 of 2
"That..." Feng Tianqi knew a hundred million really was not much to a Heaven-rank expert, but his own private savings were not much either—surely he could not have the ancient Feng family foot the bill? So, after a moment's hesitation, he said, "How about one hundred and fifty million?"
"Fine, one hundred and fifty million. But add some cultivation resources—whatever I need, you must do your utmost to help me find." The other party thought it over and agreed.
"That's no problem. As long as you do your utmost to protect my daughter, finding some cultivation resources will be no trouble," Feng Tianqi agreed readily. To him, hunting down cultivation resources was easier than coughing up another fifty million.
"Then it's settled. I'll take your job right now," the other party said.
"Wait—how do I trust you? Are you a Heaven-rank expert?" Feng Tianqi asked hesitantly. It was not that he was overly suspicious; the matter had simply gone too smoothly. He had barely posted the job when someone applied, and moreover met the conditions!
After all, what Feng Tianqi was looking for was a Heaven-rank expert, not some common assassin—and he had found one just like that? It struck him as somewhat unbelievable.
"I am not a Heaven-rank expert, but the person I send will be an early-stage Heaven-rank expert," the other party said.
"Oh? That works. But let's be clear: if it's not an early-stage Heaven-rank expert, I won't honor the agreement!" Feng Tianqi, fearing a swindler, declared this in advance. Feng Sanmang, though hardly a formidable expert, could tell a Heaven-rank expert when he saw one. If the other party was an impostor and Feng Sanmang did not confirm it, Feng Tianqi would not transfer a cent.
"Agreed. Payment upon meeting will do," the other party said with utmost readiness.
"Good. Then how do we get in touch?" Feng Tianqi asked.
"I'll have him call you to arrange a place," the other party said. "All right, I've taken your job!"
With that, the other party hung up. Feng Tianqi saw on the computer that his posted commission had indeed been accepted by someone! Instinctively he clicked on the taker's rank and credit rating—and what he saw gave him a start.
The completion rate was a full hundred percent, and the taker was a Crown-level assassin, the highest rank on the commission network!
Could it be real? Though Feng Tianqi found it a little hard to believe that a Heaven-rank expert could turn up on a secular-world commission network, this person did not look like a swindler—such a high rank, a hundred-percent completion rate. There was no reason to ruin such a reputation over a job like his.
After all, one hundred and fifty million was not small, but neither was it all that large. Plenty of assassination jobs here could fetch ten million in fees. Since this person had such a high completion rate, he was surely no stranger to money. So Feng Tianqi was instantly filled with confidence in this guardian.
With such a major matter settled, Feng Tianqi meant to discuss it further with Feng Shihua.
