"Vice State Lord?"
At first glance, he spotted Vice State Lord Jiang Cheng.
"And, the State Lord."
Following Jiang Cheng's gaze, to his surprise, the State Lord had also arrived.
"Young man, could you tell me what's going on here?"
"Why are both the State Lord and Vice State Lord here?"
Master Mu asked, puzzled.
"Oh, you haven't heard? There was a massive battle at the city gates yesterday. A supreme expert stepped in and turned the tide. With just a single breath, he killed over a dozen Sun and Moon Immortal Realm experts."
"His cultivation is even higher than the State Lord's. That's why the State Lord and Vice State Lord have come personally to recruit him."
A young man next to Master Mu explained.
However, no sooner had he finished speaking than someone began to refute him.
"You're wrong. I clearly heard that the expert waved his hand and killed over a dozen Sun and Moon Immortal Realm experts. Your version is incorrect."
"Both of you are wrong. The truth is, the expert killed over a dozen Sun and Moon Immortal Realm experts with just a glance."
"You're wrong..."
"You're wrong."
...
A few people nearby began to argue loudly, creating a chaotic scene.
Master Mu, upon hearing this, couldn't help but light up with excitement.
"Such a terrifyingly powerful expert! I must see what kind of person he is!"
Excitedly, he pushed his way through the crowd, raising his eyes to catch a glimpse of this so-called expert.
However.
That one glance nearly stopped his heart.
"Su Yanjin?"
"How is that possible? He's just an Earth Immortal."
"How could he possibly kill over a dozen Sun and Moon Immortal Realm experts?"
Master Mu said incredulously.
The person next to him rolled his eyes and said, "You don't know? Obviously, the expert doesn't want to reveal his true cultivation!"
Hearing this, Master Mu's legs went weak, and he collapsed to the ground with a thud. His head spun, and he felt as if his heart was bleeding.
"Smack!"
In an instant, he slapped himself across the face. One slap wasn't enough, and he followed it with a series of slaps. The sound of slapping echoed continuously.
He was filled with regret!
"Why did I chase Su Yanjin away just because I thought he was an Earth Immortal?"
"Someone who can kill several Golden Immortals, how could he be an Earth Immortal? My brain is truly like a pig's!"
"If my daughter had caught his eye, wouldn't I have soared to greatness?"
"Waaah..."
Master Mu sat on the ground, filled with remorse, slapping himself repeatedly. He laughed and cried alternately, appearing almost insane.
His regret had reached its peak.
Now that Su Yanjin was about to become the Vice State Lord, he was far beyond Master Mu's reach.
In the end, Master Mu was so overwhelmed with regret that he fainted, and his servants had to carry him away.
"Brother Su, truly, when I, Xiang Tiannan, make a promise, I never go back on my word. All the conditions I've promised you, I will fulfill them all."
"Otherwise, may I be struck down by five thunderbolts and die!"
Xiang Tiannan swore by his dao heart.
Jiang Cheng also nodded in agreement.
After Xiang Tiannan finished speaking, Su Yanjin remained expressionless.
Then, he muttered a few numbers, as if waiting for something.
"Ten..."
...
"One."
Upon hearing this, both Xiang Tiannan and Jiang Cheng were overjoyed. Could it be that Su Yanjin was planning to accept the offer after ten breaths?
It was very possible!
So, the two hurriedly prepared the top-tier immortal artifacts and held them in their hands.
When Su Yanjin reached "one," the two were ecstatic and immediately presented the artifacts to him.
They waited with beaming smiles, anticipating that Su Yanjin would become the Vice State Lord.
The Star Immortal State was about to usher in a bright future.
But unexpectedly, Su Yanjin did not take the top-tier immortal artifacts.
"The time is just right. I should go eat. You two, please help yourselves."
With that, Su Yanjin walked past them, expressionless, as if nothing had happened, and headed straight toward the small tavern.
Xiang Tiannan: ???
Jiang Cheng: ???
Everyone present: ???
In an instant, countless faces were frozen in shock.
Watching Su Yanjin's back, both Xiang Tiannan and Jiang Cheng could only sigh helplessly.
Yet, they still did not give up.
"Let's go back and think of another way."
Meanwhile, the crowd remained rooted to the spot, stunned.
"Aren't top-tier immortal artifacts appealing?"
"Isn't the position of Vice State Lord appealing?"
Countless questions floated above their heads.

Shouldn't she be fawning over the male lead at this point?] [Zhou Qiaoqiao, are you sick? Weren't you supposed to break off your engagement today?] [Damn it!

't think I'm that capable, I'm just trying my best to stay alive. I've been kind all my life, never did anything bad, yet worldly suffering spared me not one bit. The human world is a nice place, but I won't come back in my next life. A kind young man, who wanted to just get by singing, but through repeated deceits and betrayals, has gone down an irredeemable path.
