There was no influential faction these days that did not know who Jiang Man was.
Not only was his talent astonishing, but the Immortal Gate also paid particular attention to him.
Probably only people like Water God had the nerve to kill him.
Other factions either lacked the strength to kill him or would have to stake their entire extended families on it.
The Heavenly Demon Clan was one such faction.
The Heavenly Demon Clan had a fixed area of activity, some distance from the Immortal Gate Great Governance Area.
For now, things were still fairly peaceful.
But if they killed Jiang Man, forget resting and recuperating-the Heavenly Demon Clan would probably soon face the Immortal Gate's assault.
Even moving elsewhere to eke out a miserable existence would be a luxury.
"Then do we still take it?" Liu Li asked.
Hei Li shook his head. "The assignment has already been handed down. All we can do now is watch. Don't bother with anything else."
They were here to make money, not seek death.
Only someone who no longer wanted to live and intended to drag the Heavenly Demon Clan down with them would undertake such a mission.
Jiang Man was now the brightest representative to emerge since the Immortal Gate Great Governance began.
Liu Li was still curious about the source of the assignment.
"I don't know. It's anonymous. But there are only so many people who want Jiang Man dead-either evil gods or restless elements within the Immortal Gate," Hei Li said calmly. "Our clan has entertained the idea too, but ideas need strength to support them. Our clan can't support that idea, so that leaves the evil gods and people within the Immortal Gate Territory.
"Ancient Cultivators either have no interest in such things or are too weak."
