The male immortal acted as though they were old acquaintances as he introduced it to Xu Chunniang.
"Becoming a Commission Hunter is simple. You only need to sign a contract with the Commission Hall and pay a sum of immortal crystals."
Xu Chunniang pondered briefly. "Those conditions do sound quite simple. But what exactly does the contract say?"
"Hehe, it seems the fairy does not know much about Commission Hunters. The contract basically states that you are becoming a Commission Hunter voluntarily, and if any accident occurs while completing a commission, the Commission Hall bears no responsibility whatsoever."
Some commissions were extremely dangerous. Commission Hunters were often injured, and some even died. Once this agreement was signed, any accident that occurred would have nothing to do with the Commission Hall.
"I see. Before accepting a commission, one ought to understand the dangers involved in the task. It is only natural that the Commission Hall requires every Commission Hunter to sign a contract."
The male immortal chuckled and gave Xu Chunniang an approving look.
"The fairy is indeed a sensible person. As the saying goes, eat as much rice as your abilities can carry. Some people overestimate their own strength and accept commissions far beyond their capabilities, only to lose their lives because of it.
Then their families come knocking, taking out their anger on the Commission Hall and demanding compensation at sky-high prices. To avoid such trouble, this is a measure born of necessity. Those who do not accept it need not sign."
Xu Chunniang nodded lightly. "You said earlier that, aside from signing the contract, I would also need to pay immortal crystals. How many immortal crystals must I pay to become a Commission Hunter?"
The male immortal beamed. "Not much, not much. Just one thousand immortal crystals."
