Today's first update: Chapter 2421! 1/4!
Xu Kun really wanted to kick up his heels and quit, but when he recalled that glance he had exchanged with the White Tiger Divine Statue, he held himself back.
Not understanding why the other party kept harping on this subject, he simply gave up and said, "Yes. So what?"

Shanjun was not angered by his attitude. Instead, he shifted the topic. "Our race has always upheld democratic co-governance.
