Chapter 289: The Legend of Fall

"What's wrong?"

Su Ming, who was dozing off in his seat, woke up involuntarily when he heard the noise.

He wiped his eyes, looked like he had just woken up, and yawned. He didn't look like he was here to recruit anyone at all.

However, like the people around him, he was attracted by the figure at the first moment.

There's no way. The other person has such an extraordinary temperament and such charming curves, but her face is disfigured and her hands are broken. It really makes people feel a little sympathetic, and I can't help but be led by her.

Judging from the reactions of the people around him, this person seems to be quite famous.

Su Ming asked someone from the recruitment office next door.

"Brother, who is that woman?"

Su Ming's question made the other party glance at him, seemingly a little surprised.

"What? You don't even know her?"

The man was really surprised.

"I just got here." Su Ming didn't explain too much and asked bluntly: "Tell me about it. I think that woman is quite famous. I'm a little curious."

"Somewhat famous?" The man immediately laughed and said, "Brother, that woman is not just a little famous, but extremely famous. Almost everyone in the industry knows her."

"Oh?" Su Ming raised his eyebrows and asked, "So powerful?"

"Of course." The man said in amazement, "After all, he was once a legend in Tianfeng City. If you had come here a year earlier, I can guarantee you that you would have heard his name from other people every day."

After hearing what his neighbor said, Su Ming also became curious.

In this case, the other party explained to Su Ming.

"Her name is Chi Qian. She is a native of Tianfeng City. She was born in an ordinary family. She is not a descendant of any aristocratic family, nor does she have an awakened spiritual physique. She is just an ordinary person."

"But Chi Qian seemed unwilling to be an ordinary person. She started to teach herself various fighting techniques since she was young. The techniques that can be easily found on the Internet are very superficial, but she has practiced them quite well. When she was twelve years old, she was able to beat off several adult thugs who were targeting her. When she was fifteen years old, she used the contribution points she had accumulated with great difficulty to buy some alchemical bullets and a gun that could be used to deal with phantom demons, and then she headed out of the dangerous area in the wilderness."

"It turns out that this woman is really capable. She returned to Tianfeng City a week later with a bottle of phantom demon blood in her hand. She found an alchemist and somehow convinced him to help her make a phantom demon potion."

"So, this woman became a hunter."

At this point, the man was still marveling at the thought.

“After that, the legend of Chi Qian began.”

"She rose to prominence and was not afraid of any difficulties. Like a workaholic, she took on difficult tasks every day, accumulating contribution points one after another and exchanging them for a lot of resources."

"Although her bloodline is not of high level, she managed to improve herself to three stars in just three years through hard training and accumulation of resources. At the age of twenty, she reached the limit of three stars, and her strength is much stronger than many geniuses from big families."

"Many big families were moved by Chi Qian's fighting spirit and hard work, and eventually extended olive branches to her, wanting to sponsor her and recruit her."

"But Chi Qian is also very bold. Faced with so many family forces recruiting him, he actually put forward a condition, which is that he must perform a blood replacement ceremony for her and prepare a blood of the upper level phantom demon for her."

Obviously, Chi Qian realized that his bloodline level was too low. Even if he tried harder, it would still be difficult to break through and become a high-level professional.

It is not impossible for a lower-level phantom demon bloodline to break through and become a higher-level professional, but the probability is extremely low. Even if it does not reach the outrageous level of becoming a dual-professional, it will definitely not be that high.

In addition, Chi Qian’s goal was obviously not just to become a high-level professional or a four-star hunter, but to climb higher, so replacing his bloodline became an extremely important matter.

Unfortunately, who would be willing to give up the blood of a higher-level phantom demon and perform a blood replacement ceremony for a three-star hunter who has the blood of a lower-level phantom demon?

You know, the blood replacement ceremony also has a success rate issue. Once it fails, all the money will be lost. What's more, Chi Qian's own value is not even as good as the blood of a superior phantom demon.

Just like that, Chi Qian's request made all those who extended an olive branch to her retreat.

But the woman did not give up.

"No one sponsored her, no one helped her replace her bloodline, she just wanted to do it all on her own, just like before."

"She trained hard, completed missions, and accumulated contribution points. She struggled to improve her own strength, trying to have the slim chance of using the blood of a lower-level phantom demon to break through and become a higher-level professional."

"Guess what happened?"

When the man said this, he exclaimed in amazement.

"She actually succeeded."

That’s right, Chi Qian succeeded.

It took a full eight years, and at the age of 28, Chi Qian successfully broke through himself, awakened his demonic ability, and became a senior professional.

This time, all the major forces in Tianfeng City could no longer sit still.

Being able to rely on his own abilities and break through to become a high-level professional even though his bloodline is only at the low-level phantom demon level is enough to prove that Chi Qian's abilities are extraordinary.

Giving such a genius the bloodline of a superior phantom demon will surely allow him to get value for money and grow again.

Maybe it is impossible to grow to the seven-star level, but it is still very possible to become a five-star professional, or even a six-star professional.

In other words, investing in it is definitely a sure win.

However, just when the major families were preparing to invest in Chi Qian and to win him over by offering the bloodline of a high-level phantom demon, Chi Qian suddenly disappeared.

She left Tianfeng City and entered the Chaos Demon Cave.

Two years later, Chi Qian, who was already thirty years old, returned to Tianfeng City again, but his blood had been replaced with that of an advanced phantom demon.

Chi Qian himself also broke through again and became a five-star hunter.

And her legend has just begun.

"After returning to Tianfeng City, Chi Qian did not accept funding from any family forces. Instead, he formed a team on his own and only recruited female members."

"In the next two years, Chi Qian led the team to rapid development, and the team was promoted to Class B in just two years."

"At that time, Chi Qian was simply the most popular. She was determined, hardworking, and daring to think and act. In addition, she became more and more beautiful, and she immediately became one of the most popular goddesses in Tianfeng City."

I have to say that the brother was really good at telling stories. He told them with a clear rhythm and just the right tone, which made Su Ming listen with great interest.

It's such a waste for this person not to write a novel.

At the same time, Su Ming also realized how powerful this woman named Chi Qian was.

“It’s really hard work.”

Thinking of this man's life experience, Su Ming could only sigh in this way.

Just by listening to it, Su Ming could imagine how many setbacks and difficulties Chi Qian had encountered, including some extremely dangerous experiences. If he was not careful, he might die at any time.

But Chi Qian overcame all the difficulties, so success is inevitable.

What a pity. "It was because she loved to fight and dared to fight that she ended up causing trouble."

The brother who told the story sighed with regret.

"What happened?"

Su Ming's heart moved, and he glanced at the big scar on the face of the female hunter named Chi Qian and the broken palm.

In this situation, the storyteller spoke up.

"Just one year ago, Chi Qian and his team accepted an S-level mission and went deep into the Chaos Demon Cave."

"But this trip would be a disaster."

"It is said that they encountered unimaginable dangers. Not only did almost all the members of the group die, but even Chi Qian himself was fatally injured and became what he is now."

After saying this, the brother said something with emotion.

“So, people, especially professionals like us, should never think that as long as we work hard, we can achieve anything.”

"Our enemies are phantom demons, monsters that see us as food and want to suck our blood and gnaw our flesh. We must be extremely careful in dealing with them."

"If it weren't for safety, for surviving the hands of the phantom demon, who would be willing to come here and recruit new members for the team all day long? Isn't it all for the sake of sticking together, becoming stronger, being able to go on missions more safely, and coming back safely?"

The brother shook his head and stopped talking.

Su Ming was left alone, staring at the woman named Chi Qian and fell into silence.

At this time, Chi Qian also found a seat and sat down.

As luck would have it, this woman was sitting next to Su Ming and became Su Ming's other neighbor.

However, there was no place to set up a recruitment office next to Su Ming.

Chi Qian didn't seem to be here to recruit new members for his already destroyed team. Instead, he took out a board and, imitating what Su Ming had done a few days ago, stuck it directly there.

Su Ming was the first to see what was written on the board.

That turned out to be Chi Qian’s resume.

"Name: Chi Qian."

"Gender: Female."

"Age: 33."

"Occupation: Hunter."

"Star rating: five stars."

"Introduction: Come to join the team, no limit on team level, no compensation or salary required, no food and accommodation required, and you can sign a lifetime contract."

"The only requirement: four drops of dragon demon saliva."

After reading this, how could Su Ming not understand?

This legendary woman named Chi Qian did not come to recruit new members for the team, but instead came to join someone else's team.

She even doesn't need any compensation or salary, and doesn't care about the team level. It seems that she would be willing to join even an E-level team.

This is nothing. The most important thing is that this woman is willing to sign a lifetime contract.

What does this mean? It means that she is willing to join any team for free, with no time limit, and work for the team she joins for her whole life without asking for anything in return, not even a meal.

This is no longer about seeking team members to join, but about selling oneself.

As long as one condition is met, anyone can get this woman named Chi Qian and a five-star hunter that they can use for a lifetime.

"this"

Su Ming frowned tightly.

Needless to say, this is a piece of cake.

As long as one of the other party's conditions is met, one can gain the lifelong loyalty of a five-star hunter. If the eight major families saw this, they would probably be delighted.

Especially since this person is Chi Qian, a woman who once achieved some legendary success. If one is willing to train her, it is very likely that she will be able to go a step further and be promoted to six stars in the future.

The lifelong loyalty of a future six-star professional?

Who could refuse this? If Chi Qian had not been disfigured and had her hands broken, I am afraid that with her former figure and status as one of the most popular goddesses, such a condition would definitely drive countless men crazy.

But faced with such a fatal temptation, the people present kept shaking their heads.

"Sure enough, Chi Qian is here to ask for the Dragon Demon Saliva again."

"Still four full drops."

"Who can give this?"

People were whispering like this.

Su Ming was slightly startled when he heard this, and couldn't help but turn to the brother next to him.

"Isn't this the first time she's submitted a resume like this?"

Su Ming called Chi Qian's behavior "submitting a resume."

Although the brother was speechless after hearing this, he still nodded.

"Ever since the incident a year ago, she has been coming here every now and then to submit her resume."

Hearing this, Su Ming fell silent.

Has it been like this for a whole year?

"It seems that this dragon demon saliva is very important to her."

But Su Ming also knew why no one had been able to take this legendary woman away even after submitting resumes for a whole year.

The reason is simple: Dragon Demon Saliva is too rare and too precious.

That is a material that only appears from a kind of phantom demon called Dragon Demon.

The dragon demon, as the name suggests, is a kind of dragon-shaped phantom demon.

Although it is not the divine dragon of the East, but the evil dragon of the West, this dragon demon is almost exactly the same as the dragon mentioned in Western legends.

Not only are they similar in appearance, but their levels of ferocity and terror are also almost the same as the legendary dragons. They are dangerous species from birth, and become high-level phantom demons when they grow up. Even the chance of successfully evolving into a nightmare species is more than ten times that of other types of phantom demons, making this kind of dragon demon one of the most terrifying phantom demon clans in the Spirit Demon Prison, and is deeply feared by humans.

Of course, as a price to pay for such a terrifying race, its numbers seem to be extremely small, and the difficulty of reproduction is also hundreds or thousands of times that of other phantom demon races, making it not only the most terrifying phantom demon in the Spirit Demon Prison, but also the rarest phantom demon in the Spirit Demon Prison.

At least, there have been only three records of the Dragon Demon appearing in human history throughout history. It seems that the human world has not yet seen the fourth Dragon Demon appear. The most recent record of a Dragon Demon appearing in modern times was more than a hundred years ago.

From this we can see that it is not easy to find the Dragon Demon, let alone get the Dragon Demon Saliva from its body.

This dragon demon saliva is not as simple as the saliva of a dragon demon. It is a precious material that a dragon demon will only secrete one drop in its lifetime.

The pool is shallow, but it requires four drops of Dragon Demon Saliva.

No one can meet this condition.
