"No matter how often I turn around, it's always another title."
Gu Qingshan watched the lines of glowing text appear one by one, feeling utterly unimpressed.
By comparison, the five monsters he had to kill for the "Void God of War" were all among the mightiest beings in the Void Turbulence, while "Demon King of Fear" was merely a title granted by a powerful being.
Weighed against that, "Void God of War" was far more exciting.
As if sensing his mood, Gu Qingshan suddenly felt an itch in his left eye.
An itch?
No, it wasn't an itch. It was conveying some kind of emotion.
