Chapter 168: Invitation_3

The greater the hidden secret, the more likely it is that the risks behind it multiply; before seizing an opportunity, it's better to ask yourself if you truly have the strength.

As for Fang Hong, he clearly believed he lacked such strength.

Moreover, there was another important task line he had to consider—the task line of the Dragon's Witch, which, unless he had lost his mind, he could tell was intricately linked to the so-called arrival of the third Star of Calamity.

But about this task, he approached it with the attitude of understanding more yet intervening less.

Of course, avoidance was meaningless; when he left Traveler's Rest, the task he took over from Mazak might have still had a chance to turn back, since at that time he was merely an insignificant messenger.

But after the trip to Dolifen, having met the Dragon's Witch face to face, and after the Phantom Realm vanished, he wouldn't naively think her threats were just bedtime stories to lull him to sleep.
