The Peerless Beauty Stuck With Me

Xiao Yun didn't believe it. She chased after Tang Rao and stared closely at Tang Rao's face, forcing him to look into her eyes.

"No, I clearly heard your voice. I know you still care about me. There's no way you wouldn't care about me. You were trying to save me, weren't you?"

She had complete confidence in Tang Rao's character.

Tang Rao was definitely not someone who would watch someone die without helping.

"Unfortunately, you really guessed wrong. I didn't save you, nor do I want to save you."

Tang Rao was very decisive when he left.

No!

Xiao Yun just woke up; she was definitely dreaming. How could the usually considerate Tang Rao brother leave so heartlessly?

Thinking back, Tang Rao brother even gave Xiao Yun chocolates to eat.

"Tang Rao brother, are you really the Tang Rao brother who gave me chocolates and lollipops?"

Xiao Yun stared at Tang Rao's departing back, feeling a chill down her spine.

"He's gone now, and you've gone through so much hardship, barely surviving. Don't you want to rest a bit?"

Liu Mingyue had been staying with Xiao Yun, afraid that Xiao Yun might do something foolish again.

Tang Rao's chest was filled with a surge of anger.

Luckily, Xiao Yun's life was spared. Otherwise, he would have chopped up Corpse Emperor to feed the dogs.

What kind of demon technique did Corpse Emperor cultivate to think of eating children's flesh, drinking their blood, and torturing them to the point where life was worse than death?

It seems that every place has its heroes and villains. When there are too many people playing heroes, people will mistakenly think that there are no more villains, but villains always exist. It just depends on whether you, as a hero, can suppress them.

Tang Rao spent a lot of effort to accept that Corpse Emperor was indeed a villain character.

Xiao Huo and the others all said that Tang Rao was not a match for Corpse Emperor. Inside the sect, they had even started betting on the outcome. Of course, the number of votes for Corpse Emperor was increasing, and Tang Rao's chances of winning were dwindling.

Tang Rao clearly felt that he needed to recruit more people.

At this bottleneck period of his, wanting to completely overthrow Corpse Emperor, as Chen Tuan and the others said, was no small feat.

In this way, Illusion City became a good place for Tang Rao to recruit.

He edited a piece of text and had Yan Wei post it. In less than ten minutes, the clicks had exceeded ten thousand, with a steady upward trend.

Recruitment:

As My Mountain Sect is expanding, we are now sending out invitations to anyone with great strength who wishes to join. Starting today, register and receive ten Immortal Stones. We select the best candidates, requiring Seventh Level Immortal Monarchs or higher, with no bad habits or enmities. Interested parties contact Illusion City account…

"The recruitment ad I wrote is great, isn't it? The clicks went over ten thousand in no time. Yan Wei, see how many people have registered. How about I sift through them first?"

Tang Rao was already getting impatient.

He urged Yan Wei for results. After waiting about ten minutes and being repeatedly asked to double-check, Yan Wei finally told Tang Rao the truth.

"Only one person meets the requirements and registered, but this person said he's out of Immortal Stones and needs a year's advance in order to come for an interview."

"Wow, he's got quite the audacity. Did he say anything else? Besides Immortal Stones, what else does he want?"

Such greedy people surely expect more than just Immortal Stones.

"He said he's quite capable and wants to come to My Mountain Sect as the Sect Master or Deputy Sect Master."

What arrogance!

"Tang Rao, actually, you can't blame these people for being arrogant. With the high standards you set, it's easy for people to find backing in other sects. Expecting an Eighth Layer Immortal Monarch to join My Mountain Sect and still be a junior…who would agree to that?"

Yan Wei was merely stating the facts without belittling anyone.

If he were an Eighth Layer Immortal Monarch, he probably wouldn't even click on this information.

"Really? Is the Land of Immortals this realistic now? Do they not care about sentiment as promised?"

Do they not value living, chatting, and building businesses together with the Immortal Emperor?

My Mountain Sect has such great benefits, and yet no one is interested?

It's as if he created a fake sect.

"Don't even talk about it being posted for a day; unless someone has something wrong with their head, no one will apply, you know?"

Yan Wei's warning jolted Tang Rao awake.

"But I urgently need at least an Eighth Layer Immortal Monarch or higher to help me handle Corpse Emperor. There are some unclear ties between my Grandmaster and Corpse Emperor, and I can't rely on him. I can only count on you and find some more people myself."

Yan Wei had heard Tang Rao talk about Corpse Emperor before; this vile creature had enough power to make people hate him.

People tried every possible way to kill him.

"You could ask Xu Ruofei about these things. He has such a wide network; introducing some people to join My Mountain Sect should be easy for him."

Xu Ruofei?

"I can't ask Xu Ruofei. He's my grandmaster's brother, the type to share everything with him. If I consult him, he would immediately report to my grandmaster."

Who knows if Chen Tuan and Corpse Emperor have such a good relationship that they would inform each other?

"This doesn't work, that doesn't work; tell me what we should do. I can't just go bare-handed and carve a blue sky, can I?"

Tang Rao wasn't giving up yet. He stared at the announcement on Illusion City without daring to blink.

"Can you help me refresh it and see if anyone's willing to join me out of sentiment? For those people, I might increase the Immortal Stones a bit."

Buddy, this is not about sentiment; it's clearly about giving yourself a way out and by the way, 'generously' hiring a few talents over.

Following Tang Rao's instructions, Yan Wei refreshed, but still, no one registered.

When did Eighth Layer Immortal Monarchs become this scarce?

"In the entire Land of Immortals, Eighth Layer Immortal Monarchs are not many. Don't think you can catch a big fish in one go. We can look for those less powerful and use Immortal Crystals to stimulate them to grow gradually. Using promotion as an attraction can bring in people even easier than Immortal Stones."

This was not a bad idea. Tang Rao acted immediately, pulling up the previous announcement, clicked modify, and quickly changed the entry level to a Sixth Layer Immortal Monarch, two steps lower, on his computer.

The number of registrations suddenly increased.

Who would have thought that just lowering it by two levels and promising quick promotions would nearly crash the server with applicants?

"Quick, see how many have registered. Hurry and sift through them for me; with so many people, I don't know where to start."

Looking at the barrage on Illusion City, Tang Rao was quite excited.

"Don't rush, don't rush. I've checked the info, and many of them are registering as Third Layer Immortal Monarchs. Let me eliminate those who aren't up to standards first, then weed out those who are underpowered or not good-looking."
