Chapter 1726 1726: I Want Them All
"Damn! Fearless really has no shame at all..."
Upon hearing Fearless's words, Dawn's First Ray didn't react much, but the members of the Quan Zhen Sect began to whisper among themselves.
Damn it, while others might not know what kind of person Fearless is, this group from Quan Zhen Sect certainly has a better understanding. With his temperament, just looking at him on the street might result in someone being swindled out of money, let alone asking him for help. And he actually claims to be warm-hearted?
"Oh? When did they want any face?" Quan Zhen Sect's Spring Halo Ming and the elders all turned to look at Boson.
Boson shook his head and said, "It seems they really haven't..."
"Impressive!" Upon hearing this, everyone exclaimed in unison.
It's not difficult for one person to be shameless, but to maintain that shamelessness for over twenty years is quite commendable. Although Fearless has a vile nature, he still has his merits.
"Help me?"
At this moment, hearing Fearless's words, Dawn's First Ray was slightly taken aback and raised an eyebrow, questioning, "What kind of trick are you trying to pull this time?"
Having been tricked by Fearless once, Dawn's First Ray had learned his lesson and was naturally on guard against him. Seeing Fearless's smug demeanor made Dawn's First Ray's heart skip a beat.
"I truly want to help you!" Fearless smirked and said, "I think you're a smart person, so this time your task should definitely require our assistance."
"Task?" Dawn's First Ray scanned the surroundings warily and asked, "What task?"
"Stop pretending!" Fearless chuckled, "Of course, it's a remedial task!"
"You!!" Dawn's First Ray and Young Master Beijing simultaneously widened their eyes, pointing at Fearless and asking, "Did you send someone to follow me?"
"Haha!" Fearless laughed cheerfully, "In the game, what can you call following? I'm merely sharing resources with you."
"Stop with the nonsense!"
Dawn's First Ray said irritably, "There's nothing to discuss with someone like you, hurry up and get lost, or don't blame me for being rude!"
As he spoke, Dawn's First Ray drew his staff and pointed it at Fearless's nose.
"Just you?" Fearless smiled faintly, casually pushing the staff aside, and said, "You don't understand the strength of our Quan Zhen Sect. You should have seen Old Bull's power; do you think you can complete your task without us?"
"This..."
Upon hearing this, the originally furious Dawn's First Ray was taken aback and showed a hesitant expression.
Although Fearless is annoying, he is very clever, and his words are sharp and to the point. This sentence struck a chord with Dawn's First Ray.
Indeed, what Dawn's First Ray was most worried about now was the remedial task he had just received.
After all, the task was messed up by Dawn's First Ray himself. Even though Young Master Beijing didn't say anything, Dawn's First Ray still felt quite guilty. He had seen how difficult this remedial task was, and if he couldn't fix this failure for Young Master Beijing in time, he would probably carry the guilt for a long time.
Matters of human relationships are far more difficult to repay than money.
Whether it's Wang Yu or the other members of Quan Zhen Sect, Dawn's First Ray has never doubted their strength. After all, this group was able to easily deal with the Holy Soul Child Reyes, so dealing with the Demon Soul Lord Jamil would also be a piece of cake. Fearless's calm and casual words directly hit Dawn's First Ray's soft spot.
At this moment, Dawn's First Ray faced two choices.
First, choose to trust Fearless. However, given Fearless's previous actions, this trust comes with risks, and there's a high chance that this group would sell him out and keep the money. But if they really could help him, then the task would definitely be completed.
Second, choose not to trust Fearless. Not trusting Fearless means not having to bear the risks, but beyond Quan Zhen Sect, Dawn's First Ray really couldn't think of anyone else who could help him complete this task.
Dawn's First Ray didn't want to be tricked, and he didn't want to fail the task. Now, both choices left him feeling overwhelmed, and for a moment he began to waver.
"Hehe!"
Seeing Dawn's First Ray hesitate, Fearless smiled and said, "If it were any other time, I wouldn't care about your life or death, but I can't stand our Old Bull being upright and not wanting to take your money while making things difficult for you, so I'm helping you. If you don't want to, we won't force it."
"Old Bull..."
Hearing this, Dawn's First Ray looked up at Wang Yu, who was also looking at him with a calm expression.
Wang Yu still had that honest demeanor. Looking at Wang Yu, Dawn's First Ray couldn't help but feel that he couldn't hate this guy who had tricked him.
After pondering for a moment, Dawn's First Ray finally nodded and said, "Alright, you tell me, how can you help us?"
Dawn's First Ray certainly wasn't choosing to cooperate with Fearless just because he trusted Wang Yu, but because he really had no other option. In any case, the worst outcome would still be the same. Rather than being helpless, he might as well take a risk.
Moreover, Dawn's First Ray had interacted with Wang Yu before and had a deep impression of his character. Although Wang Yu had tricked him this time, it couldn't be called a trick in a mutual task; anyone would have done the same.
Thus, Dawn's First Ray decided to give the Quan Zhen Sect a chance and also give himself a chance.
"Chen Shao, are you crazy!"
Seeing Dawn's First Ray being easily swayed by Fearless, Young Master Beijing anxiously shouted, "These bastards are surely plotting to trick us again. Collaborating with them is like seeking skin from a tiger!"
"So what?" Dawn's First Ray replied helplessly, "If we don't cooperate with them, can we complete this task?"
"This..." Hearing Dawn's First Ray's words, Young Master Beijing was instantly speechless.
"Helping you isn't difficult, but you also need to help yourselves."
Fearless responded.
"What do you mean?" Dawn's First Ray said coldly, "Don't beat around the bush; I know the gist of it."
"Hehe!"
Fearless chuckled and said without changing his expression, "We can help you kill the Demon Soul Lord, but you also need to contribute something."
"Oh? How much do you want this time? Do we pay upfront?" Dawn's First Ray asked irritably.
"Hehe, money is just an external thing", Fearless said with a smile, "This time we want people."
"People?" Dawn's First Ray frowned and asked, "How many?"
Dawn's First Ray was quite surprised by Fearless's request. After all, when they killed the Holy Soul Child, Quan Zhen Sect completed the task with just their dozen or so members. This time, however, they were asking for manpower. Could the Demon Soul Lord be much stronger than the Holy Soul Child?
"How many people do you have?" Fearless asked.
"About seven or eight thousand", Dawn's First Ray thought for a moment and said.
"Good!" Fearless clenched his fist and said decisively, "I want them all!"
