Chapter 273: Chapter 272 Willing to Accept Losses in a Bet

"This person is indeed not simple!" The lady thought to herself in her heart.

Afterward, the lady spoke again: "Mr. Mu Yi, let me introduce myself first, my name is Li Jiaojiao, I am temporarily working here. Today, I will present you with the adventurer’s badge!"

While speaking, a token appeared in the lady’s hand, on which there was a fierce tiger that seemed to have come to life.

"Mr. Mu Yi, congratulations, from now on, you are an adventurer!"

Li Jiaojiao added.

"Thank you very much!"

Lin Fan unceremoniously accepted the adventurer’s badge.

Li Jiaojiao said: "Mr. Mu Yi, how about we go have a cup of tea together? To be honest, I quite admire you and would like to talk with you for a bit."

Lin Fan smiled and said: "No need, if there is a chance in the future, we can have tea together then, but today, I still have some important matters to attend to!"

After finishing speaking, Lin Fan floated down from the platform.

Li Jiaojiao, standing on the platform, couldn’t help but be stunned.

Because Li Jiaojiao never expected that Lin Fan would actually reject her outright.

At the same time, Li Jiaojiao felt somewhat annoyed in her heart, this was the first time she had been rejected!

"Hmph!"

Li Jiaojiao hummed in her heart, thinking to herself: "What a damned jerk!"

Meanwhile, below the platform, the members of the Hope Adventure Team, including the leader and the members, were present.

One of the members said to the leader: "Boss, what should we do? To think that guy obtained the adventurer’s badge in such a short time? Do we really have to relinquish the leader’s position?"

"We absolutely cannot give up the leader’s position, we don’t know his background. If we rashly give up the position, it would be very unfavorable for us!"

"Boss, why don’t we just kill him? After killing him, there won’t be any problem!"

"No, we can’t kill him. Besides, with that guy’s formidable strength, it’s impossible for us to kill him!"

Everyone was looking at the leader, waiting for him to make a decision.

At that moment, the leader stood there blankly, his expression looking very grim.

After a while, the leader pondered slightly and said: "Let’s go, we must leave immediately, and avoid that guy. If we can’t afford to provoke him, then we can only hide. Tonight, let’s find an opportunity to leave directly, that guy is simply terrifying!"

Soon after, the leader quickly led his members away.

Worried that Lin Fan might find them, they quickly found a very hidden place to hide after leaving.

One of the members couldn’t help but worryingly ask: "Boss, do you think he will find us? I don’t know why, but I always have this bad feeling!"

Another member also nodded and said: "Yeah, I also have a bad feeling, I always feel that he might be able to find us!"

In fact, the leader himself had this bad feeling as well.

However, in the current situation, the leader could not show disheartenment, as if he lacked confidence himself, let alone the others!

Eventually, the leader shook his head and said: "Don’t worry everyone, with the vast sea of people, it’s impossible for that guy to find us."

Everyone nodded, agreeing that the leader made sense.

The leader continued: "Anyway, from now on, let’s not go anywhere. Just stay here quietly. Tonight, we’ll take an opportunity to leave directly. Even if that guy is extremely capable, he won’t be able to find us!"

Finally, it was night time!

Seeing that Lin Fan hadn’t come, their hearts were finally relieved.

The leader said: "Alright, is everyone ready? Let’s set off now!"

Earlier, the leader had already contacted people to prepare the cargo to be transported. Now, what they needed to do was to pick up the cargo at the destination and then head directly to the Imperial City.

Normally, they would set off during the day, but today, due to the special circumstances and worried that Lin Fan might come, the Hope Adventure Team could only set off at night.

At the same time, they were very confident, believing that even if Lin Fan had extraordinary means, it would be impossible for him to come.

Soon, they reached the place with the cargo and loaded all the goods into the Flying Life.

Their Flying Life was quite impressive, surrounded by potent Arrays that could withstand ordinary attacks.

This Flying Life, which they had spent a lot of money on, was also what they relied on to make their living...

After loading the cargo, the leader said solemnly: "Alright, we are ready to set off now."

Everyone nodded.

At that moment, everyone was somewhat excited. To be honest, while loading the cargo, they always worried that Lin Fan might suddenly appear.

However, Lin Fan hadn’t appeared yet, which meant everything should be fine.

"Everyone, board the Flying Life quickly!"

The leader gave his final order.

Once everyone was aboard the Flying Life, they could set off for the Imperial City.

"Wait!"

Just at this moment, a faint voice rang out.

When the members of the Hope Adventure Team heard this voice, they were all stunned, and their facial expressions suddenly became very wonderful.

Is it him?

They were too familiar with this voice!

Could it actually be "Mu Yi’s" voice?

But soon they felt that they must have heard wrong just before. Considering how well hidden they were, how could that guy named Mu Yi possibly find them?

However, their hopes were quickly shattered!

Lin Fan walked out of the darkness at an unhurried pace.

In fact, Lin Fan knew everything about the movements of the Hope Adventure Team. Previously, he had set up tracking methods on them because he saw that there were no missions going to the Imperial City in the next two or three days. So, Lin Fan had no choice but to follow this adventure team.

Only under a desperate situation did Lin Fan resort to some unconventional methods.

"You... you..."

When they saw Lin Fan appear, their faces were terrified to the extreme.

They thought they had successfully avoided Lin Fan, but they didn’t expect that at this last moment, Lin Fan would actually show up?

Especially the team leader, who looked as if he had seen a ghost.

At the same time, the team leader also knew that Lin Fan’s appearance meant that he couldn’t keep his position as the leader!

"Hehe!"

While everyone was incredibly shocked, Lin Fan’s light smile rang out, and he said, "So? Are you surprised by my arrival?"

Nobody spoke!

It wasn’t until Lin Fan had approached them that the team leader finally said, "You... how did you find us?"

Lin Fan continued to smile and said, "How I found you, you don’t need to ask too much, just remember, thinking of avoiding me? That’s wishful thinking!"

The team leader remained silent.

At this time, the team leader was somewhat annoyed and didn’t know what to say.

Lin Fan’s eyes slowly swept over everyone’s bodies, and finally landed on the team leader, and continued saying: "By the way, team leader, I remember previously, if the adventurer badge was obtained within two two-hour periods, you planned to give me the leader’s position, now, isn’t it time to consider giving up the leader’s position? Hehe!"

At the end of the statement, Lin Fan gave a strange laugh.

The people present felt very uncomfortable after hearing Lin Fan’s strange laugh, but they also dared not say much.

"I..."

The team leader hesitated!

To be honest, he was really reluctant to give up the leader’s position, after all, he had put a lot of effort into building this adventure team.

But the team leader had no real reason to refuse!

It seemed that Lin Fan knew what the team leader was thinking, and after another smile, he asked, "What’s the matter, team leader? I say, you’re not thinking of going back on your word, are you? But actually, it’s understandable if you did, after all... you must be unwilling to give up the leader’s position!"

Lin Fan spoke in a mocking tone.

Upon hearing Lin Fan’s words, the team leader felt greatly uncomfortable!

Finally, the team leader clenched his teeth and said, "Okay, I will give you the leader’s position now!"

"Leader..."

Upon hearing the team leader’s words, all the members exclaimed.

They did not want Lin Fan to become their leader.

Knowing everyone’s thoughts, the team leader waved his hand and said, "There’s no need to say more, I accepted the bet and lost. From now on, Mr. Mu Yi is our team leader!"

Lin Fan looked at the team leader with a half-smile, asking, "Are you sure? Really giving me the leader’s position? Are you truly willing to hand over all your life’s hard work to someone else?"

The team leader said firmly, "Even if I’m unwilling, what can I do? I accepted the bet and lost!"

"Okay!"

Lin Fan gave the team leader a thumbs up and said, "Actually, I was just joking with you a moment ago. Team leader, you built this adventure team, how could I possibly take over halfway through?"

"I have no intention of being the team leader. Team leader, you remain the leader of the team, I just hope you will accept me and let us go to the Imperial City together, I would be very grateful!"

Lin Fan spoke in a very calm tone.

Upon hearing Lin Fan’s words, everyone was taken aback.

They didn’t expect Lin Fan to not take on the role of leader.

The team leader was pleasantly surprised and asked, "Really?"

Lin Fan stated, "A gentleman never jokes!"

The team leader was stunned.

He opened his mouth as if he wanted to say something, but ultimately, he said nothing.

In the end, the team leader bowed respectfully to Lin Fan and said, "Thank you, Mr. Mu Yi!"
