To be honest, when Chen An first arrived in this place, he was still somewhat not used to the atmosphere here.

 

But after trying it twice, he found that Bai Changyue was right.

 

This is really a good place!

 

No need to worry about status, no need to consider position and think about other things, as long as you have enough strength, you can accomplish many things.

 

This is the most suitable for Chen An.

 

At least when doing things, he doesn't have to be as restrained as he was under Bai Qing.

 

Many people envy Chen An's position under Bai Qing.

 

This point Chen An admits.

 

Doing things for rich women does have its benefits, everything will not be lacking.

 

But the only downside is that there is too much to consider when doing things.

 

No way.

 

The situation in the Bai family is too complicated, many things are not as simple as they appear on the surface, there are many complex relationship networks behind them, and even other things.

 

In this place, if you want to do something, it not only takes physical effort, but also requires brainpower.

 

It's very troublesome.

 

This place is different again.

 

Everything is laid out in the open, just do whatever you want to do.

 

In normal circumstances, no one will investigate your background.

 

This is just right for Chen An.

 

Walking to the front desk, casually throwing down two heads, Chen An's voice was hoarse as he casually asked, "Are there any new jobs?"

 

People around him looked at him, their pupils contracting as they saw the two heads on the front desk.

 

Because many people in the room recognized those two heads.

 

Not only did they recognize them, but many people had even thought about targeting them before.

 

They were two warriors with a little reputation in the nearby area, probably both had the strength of internal energy cultivation.

 

They camped together in the vicinity, combining with a group of bandits to specifically rob passersby, very tough to deal with.

 

The reason they were tough to deal with was because of the complex terrain in the mountains and their large number.

 

Ordinary internal energy warriors had to not only face them alone, but also be constantly vigilant against attacks from others around them, which naturally made things troublesome.

 

It's not impossible to handle, it's just not worth the silver they were offering.

 

Unexpectedly, someone took on the job this time.

 

"One head for five hundred taels, equivalent to a thousand in silver."

 

The person at the front desk was also a little surprised, but still nodded, then took out a new silver note and handed it to Chen An.

 

Chen An took the silver note, counted it roughly, and was quite satisfied with it.

 

This was the third job he had done in the past seven or eight days.

 

The efficiency was okay, at least the debt he owed Bai Changyue before had now been repaid.

 

And if he continues at this rate, becoming rich might not be the goal, but it could be used to supplement himself.

 

"Is there a suitable job?"

 

He thought for a moment, put away the silver note, and took out another one from several banknotes, secretly handing it to the person in front of him.

 

The old man quietly took the silver note, looked at the amount on it, and a smile appeared on his face, "Yes, of course."

 

"The tasks for this month have already been arranged, young master, whatever you want to do, just come to me and let me know."

 

His expression seemed very sincere, as bright as it could be after receiving money, the service had to be a bit better.

 

"Mm."

 

Chen An nodded, took the list handed to him, and went to a corner to read it directly.

 

Before long, Chen An had eliminated most of the tasks on the list.

 

Although he had relative freedom here, Chen An didn't accept every job.

 

Adhering to the principle of being cautious like sailing a thousand-year-old ship, Chen An had his own principles for accepting jobs.

 

He wouldn't take on tasks that exceeded the strength of internal energy cultivation, those too far away, tasks with vague descriptions, and those with complex backgrounds.

 

All for safety reasons.

 

Chen An had decent strength himself, with his internal power surpassing the stage of internal energy cultivation, even without knowledge of any advanced martial arts, he could simply overpower a few internal energy cultivators of the small stage.

 

After looking around, Chen An's eyes lit up.

 

"Grim."

 

His gaze settled on a task.

 

It was a task to eliminate something sinister, apparently somewhere in the outskirts there was a sinister presence that ordinary warriors couldn't match.

 

According to the intelligence, this sinister entity's strength was at the level of internal energy cultivation.

 

"It's worth trying."

 

When it came to sinister entities, Chen An was excited.

 

This was another way he differed from others.

 

Most people targeted those with high status, so that after a successful mission, not only could they get a commission, but also make a fortune from the bodies.

 

As for sinister entities, few were willing to get involved.

 

They were not only mysterious, but also didn't offer much in terms of rewards.

 

Killing people meant you could loot from them, but what could you get from a sinister entity?

Just its corpse.

 

And although sinister entities were not difficult to deal with compared to warriors of the same level, sometimes they could be quite troublesome.

 

This trouble wasn't about strength, but rather about being hard to find.

 

But for Chen An, it was the opposite.

 

While it was regrettable that there was little gain, for Chen An, it was not about the money, but the energy he could gain after defeating a sinister entity.

 

That was the truly valuable thing.

 

And unlike humans, sinister entities didn't have complicated backgrounds, lifestyle habits, or martial arts skills to worry about.

 

Even if there was no task, Chen An would probably go after sinister entities sooner or later, and now he could make some money by completing the task and getting a reward, a win-win situation.

 

He quickly glanced over the list, jotting down most of the tasks above, ready to ask the person in charge for relevant information.

 

Of course, this was not free, it came with a fee.

 

This place did this kind of business, not only acting as a platform for task publishing and taking a cut from completed tasks, but also selling information, operating as information traffickers.

 

Even if you took on a task from them and wanted to buy relevant information later, you would have to pay for it, to some extent, it was like a black market.

 

The only fortunate thing was that this kind of information about sinister entities was generally not expensive, after all, there wasn't much attention to pay to it.

 

Sinister entities were not like humans, they didn't need to know their family background, their martial arts skills, or their habits.

 

All Chen An needed was the strength and location of the sinister entity.

 

After taking on the task, Chen An immediately set off towards the described location.
