Qing Xue nudged Xu Bai and gave him a meaningful look.
It seemed like he really wanted Xu Bai to agree.
To be able to become a subordinate of King Sheng You, that was really soaring to the sky. Moreover, he was even given the position of deputy general. He was not an ordinary soldier.
If there were people from the martial arts world here, they would definitely fight for this position. After all, this was a good thing.
Xu Bai actually directly rejected the offer. He rejected it very decisively.
In the eyes of others, this was an opportunity that could allow one to soar into the sky. However, in Xu Baits eyes, it was not worth mentioning.
Ridiculous!
It was not just Qing Xue. The others also looked over. Their intentions were similar to Qing Xue’s.
This was King Shengyou!
He was truly below one person and above ten thousand people.
This was an opportunity that he could not even dream of!
However, none of them said anything. After all, this was Xu Bails own idea, and they couldn’t interfere.
“Rank-8?” King Sheng You smiled and said meaningfully,””The one this king has his eyes on is you, a Rank-8. Your companions added together probably won’t be enough for you to fight with one hand. Don’t be modest first.” Xu Bai wasn’t being humble, but he was still unwilling.
‘Whatever you want, this king can give it to you. Divine weapons, pills, secret manuals, you can take them from the treasury.”Sheng You King continued.
When this condition was stated, everyone present widened their eyes.
If the previous condition could cause the players in the game to fight until their heads bled, then the current condition would probably cause a huge shock in the game.
The martial world was forever the martial world. Whether it was the strongest Confucianism, Buddhism, or Taoism in Great Chu, or the various famous families, they had to lower their noble heads in front of the royal family. The royal treasury was a sacred land that one could only dream of.
The most important thing was to casually take them.
This condition was hard to refuse, but Xu Bai still shook his head.
“There should be people stronger than me. Why don’t I use this kind of treatment to recruit stronger people?”Xu Bai slowly said, “I yearn for other lives, Your Highness, don’t force me.””
When this sentence was said, everyone present did the same thing. They touched their foreheads with their hands, looking very uncomfortable.
They all knew Xu Bai’s personality, but they never thought that he would be so jumpy.
To be honest, Xu Bai was really tempted when he heard this condition. Don’t forget that the cultivation technique manuals in the royal family’s treasure vault could very likely trigger the progress bar.
However, after thinking about it, he gave up on this idea and finally shook his head and refused.
The reason was simple.
Firstly, with his current strength, he did not want to get involved in things that were beyond his strength. Otherwise, it was very likely that he would not be able to spend his money.
Secondly, and most importantly, there were many people with special abilities in this world, and experts were like carps crossing the river.
If he grew up alone, he would be able to preserve the secret of his cheat to the greatest extent. However, if he went out and interacted with more complicated people, there was a risk that his secret would be discovered.
The golden finger was his everything, the source of his true development.
Looking at the Emperor, the plans he had seen in the video gave people the impression that he was extremely shrewd and farsighted.
If one didn’t have strong hardware conditions to fight with such an old fox, it was very likely that they would become someone else’s chess piece and expose their own situation.
Lord Shengyou was overbearing and seemed to have spent his entire life in the army. His personality seemed very simple on the surface.
However, when he communicated with the Emperor, it was obvious that he was very meticulous.
Xu Bai felt that it was still too dangerous to come into contact with these things now.
“Sigh, one is hard to find.” King You Sheng sighed.” What I value is your potential. It has nothing to do with your strength. It’s a pity that you’re unwilling.
As he spoke, Sheng You King didn’t seem to want to talk too much about this, so he took out a jade token from his waist and threw it into Xu Bai’s hand.
Xu Bai took it and looked at it carefully.
It was as smooth as jade, and there were all kinds of complicated patterns carved on it.
“If you change your mind, take this jade token and go to the capital to find the emperor. The doors of my army are open for you. “King Sheng You said boldly.
Xu Bai was slightly surprised.
This action had increased his impression of him by quite a bit.
He thought that King You Sheng would at least appear angry, but he didn’t think that he didn’t care at all and even gave him such generous conditions. “Do you think this king will get angry?” King Sheng You looked at what Xu Bai was thinking and laughed, ‘”‘This king is very open-minded about talents. If you can’t be used by this king, as long as you don’t do anything to harm Great Chu, this king won’t mind at all.”
“Thank you, Your Highness.” Xu Bai put away the jade token in his hand and cupped his hands.
No matter what, the King’s magnanimity was commendable.
King Sheng You stopped talking and looked up, his gaze gradually converging.
“Alright, that’s enough. Now, it’s time to go up and meet that old friend. She has been waiting for a long time.”
Old friend?
After saying this, everyone present was very confused.
“In a while, you can watch from the side. The battle between us will be of great benefit to you.”
King Sheng You said slowly and waved his sleeves around..
