"Invite me to join Quanxing?"

Wu An glanced around the room and repeated it calmly.

"That's right!"

"I've laid out all the terms!"

Lv Liang fixed his gaze on Wu An, confidence appearing on his face.

He believed Wu An could not refuse this temptation!

If it had been an older-generation supreme expert like the Old Heavenly Master,

Lv Liang truly would not have had such confidence!

Experts of that level possessed unwavering minds and could not be swayed by external things!

Moreover, they had already achieved both success and fame, standing at the pinnacle of the world!

The mere position of Quanxing's leader could not move them!

But Wu An was different!

Judging by his appearance, he was not even twenty!

He was practically just starting out!

At that age, one's energy was at its peak!

It was precisely when one wanted to accomplish something earth-shaking!

And the Quanxing organization suited their tastes perfectly!

Otherwise, why would Liu Yanyan leave the Liu Family in Xiangxi and come join Quanxing?

Wasn't it because she truly liked Quanxing's principles?

"Brother Wu An, please think carefully..."

Xu San stared intently at Wu An, his tone somewhat despairing!

To be fair, if he had been in Wu An's position, he probably would not have been able to refuse Lv Liang's offer either!

But after pondering for a moment, Wu An slowly spoke:

"Quanxing's leader?"

"Forget it. I'm not interested!"

What?!

The moment those words came out, everyone was dumbfounded!

Th-this was impossible, wasn't it?

They were so shocked their jaws nearly dropped!

Especially Lv Liang!

His eyes widened!

He almost thought he had misheard!

This was too unbelievable!

This was the position of Quanxing's leader!

How could any young person in this world refuse the temptation of becoming Quanxing's leader?

Once one became Quanxing's leader!

Not only would one's status soar, reaching the level of a prestigious sect's leader in one stroke!

One could also command a large group of powerful Outsiders!

Xu San was equally stunned!

He had not expected Wu An to refuse so decisively!

Feng Baobao, on the other hand, showed no reaction!

In her eyes, very few things could draw her attention!

"Brother Wu An, I support your choice!"

"This Quanxing doesn't sound like anything good!"

"Why join them?"

Zhang Chulan said carelessly!

"How could you..."

Lv Liang's pupils contracted as disbelief filled his face!

"Must I join Quanxing?"

Wu An smiled calmly!

After all, he came from a modern urban world!

Even if he gained enormous power and status in the world of The Outcast!

What use was it if he could not take it back with him?

For Wu An!

His future stage lay in the myriad heavens and worlds!

Not in a mere single world!

Once he understood this, Wu An immediately began to radiate a vast and majestic aura!

Not far away, Liu Yanyan and Xia He both stared at Wu An in shock!

What was going on?

Why had this aura suddenly appeared around Wu An?

Before that aura, both women felt as tiny as ants!

Looking at Wu An was like gazing upon the myriad heavens and worlds!

They were completely stunned!

"Alright, enough about that!"

"If you Quanxing people don't leave now, it'll be too late!"

Wu An glanced at Lv Liang and Xia He and spoke flatly!

In just a little while, Xu San's people from the relevant department would arrive!

By then, even if Lv Liang and Xia He could escape,

they would still have to pay a price! "Could it be that you still want to make a move on Zhang Chulan?"

Wu An narrowed his eyes:

"Zhang Chulan is my friend. If you Quanxing continue to harbor designs on him, you'll be making an enemy of me!"

Wu An's tone was very calm!

Yet everyone present felt a chill in their hearts!

"Brother Wu An, I..."

Zhang Chulan looked at Wu An with immense gratitude!

Including this time, Wu An had already saved him twice!

Although Zhang Chulan usually acted frivolous and carefree, he was extremely loyal!

At this moment, Zhang Chulan had already regarded Wu An as a true friend!

"Fine! We're leaving!"

"But Quanxing's doors will always remain open for you!"

After leaving those words behind, Lv Liang turned and left!

"Take me with you!"

"I'm one of Quanxing too..."

"We're partners!"

Liu Yanyan cried out loudly!

But neither Lv Liang nor Xia He paid Liu Yanyan any attention!

In the end, Lv Liang cast Liu Yanyan a cold glance!

"Take you with us?"

"You don't understand what true Quanxing is at all!"

After saying that, Lv Liang strode away!

Without the slightest hesitation!

Leaving behind only Liu Yanyan, her face filled with despair!

Xu San and Feng Baobao did not go after them either!

First, with only the two of them, even if they caught up, they might not be able to keep them there!

Second, they worried that other Quanxing members might be waiting to assist them!

In any case, the primary objective of their trip had been to rescue Zhang Chulan!

"You little brat, still thinking of running?"

"Come back with me obediently!"

Xu San pushed up his glasses and blocked Liu Yanyan's path!

"Baobao, take her back!"

After giving the order, Xu San turned to Wu An!

"Brother Wu An, how about coming back with me?"

"Can we talk in detail?"

Xu San asked carefully!

"No need!"

"I'll leave Zhang Chulan to you!"

Wu An shook his head with a faint smile and refused outright!

Now that Zhang Chulan was safe, the main quest issued by the system had naturally been completed!

As for the remaining side quest...

Defeat Zhang Lingyu!

According to the anime's plot, Quanxing would next spread word about Zhang Chulan!

When that happened, the Celestial Master Mansion on Mount Longhu should be the first to send someone over!

Zhang Lingyu would be among them!

Judging by the time!

It should be tonight!

At that thought, Wu An immediately relaxed!

He would not need to remain in this world for too long!

Then, he turned and left as well!

Xu San blankly watched Wu An's retreating figure!

After a long while, he let out a soft sigh!

"Zhang Chulan, just where did this friend of yours come from?"

"He rejected Quanxing's invitation, yet he also dismisses the relevant department!"

"This person gives me a very strange feeling!"

"It's as if his ambitions lie elsewhere!"

Xu San looked astonished!

"But the world is only so big!"

"There are only a few major powers in the entire Outsider World!"

"Quanxing and the relevant department are already considered the very top!"

Xu San could not make sense of it!

To him, Wu An was like an immortal above the nine heavens!

As though he might ascend into the sky and depart at any moment!

But how could that be possible?

In this world!

Did immortals truly exist?

"I told you, I can't see through that person!"

Feng Baobao added!

"I don't know either!"

"But Wu An is my friend!"

Zhang Chulan said without caring!

In his heart, he had already accepted Wu An!

Time passed!

On the rooftop of Zhang Chulan's university dormitory building, a figure sat cross-legged!

It was Wu An!

"For now, all I can do is wait!"

Wu An raised his head and looked up at the starry sky!

"I wonder whether, after my interference, Quanxing will still spread the news about Zhang Chulan?"

Wu An silently thought!

Just then!

In the dense woods not far from Wu An!

A pillar of golden light shot into the sky!

"They're here!"

Wu An looked down!
