As soon as Qin Jiuge finished speaking, everyone around him was stunned. Even Xu Li, Chu Wentian, and the others were dumbfounded, as though they simply could not believe what Qin Jiuge had just said.
After coming to their senses, Big Baldy gave a bitter smile and shook his head. "Brother, are you all right? Everyone knows that the path of cultivation has long been sealed off in every respect by the Tannan Dynasty's imperial family. Yet you still dare to bring it up—you truly don't know whether you're dead or alive. The Tannan Dynasty has only this much tolerance.
If you want to cultivate now, you must enter officialdom. A civil post will do, as will becoming a military officer, but you must become one of their own before you can receive this honor.
Otherwise, even if you set foot on the path of cultivation, their people will hunt you down at every moment. Not many people can endure such circumstances."
"What a nuisance."
Qin Jiuge frowned slightly, then flicked his right hand. Several streaks of pale purple light flashed past.
Then, the very next moment.
Big Baldy, Chu Wentian, and the four or five lackeys around them were all nearly struck dumb.
They stared straight at Qin Jiuge as if they were looking upon a living god.
"I'll say it again: whoever can find this sort of map will receive the reward they deserve. This map is of utmost importance to me. There absolutely cannot be the slightest mistake, or I will be very unhappy."
Qin Jiuge's expression darkened slightly.
If they had not learned of his identity on the Immortal Path, of his identity as the Qin Family Divine Son, perhaps Big Baldy and the others—mere mortals who practiced martial arts—might still have barely held themselves together.
