Tree King no longer wanted to keep a low profile. He had never been a low-key person to begin with, and now he had nothing to fear. His goal was to obtain the Lord of Gods, and he did not want to waste any more time here.
Everyone was startled, their eyes widening as they stared at Tree King. They had never expected to encounter a Saint Son from legend. No wonder he was so terrifying—and there was no need for him to lie.
Some people immediately began currying favor with him.
"Greetings, Lord Saint Son. Lord Saint Son is indeed extraordinary and heroic, filling us with boundless admiration."
"To be fortunate enough to meet the legendary Saint Son today has made me truly overjoyed. Lord Saint Son, I will respect you forever."
"Lord Saint Son, I am so happy to meet you. I am willing to do anything for you. Might Lord Saint Son be willing to take me in?"
"Yes! Lord Saint Son, is there anything we can do for you? Though our strength is weak in your eyes, with your noble status, we can still help you handle some matters."
"Lord Saint Son, you are the most noble person I have ever seen in my life. No other imperial son or royal prince is as noble as you. You are a Saint born of heaven; no one else in this secret realm can compare to you."
Hearing those words, the smile on Tree King's face deepened. He said, "Seeing that you people still have some use to me, this Saint Son will accept you. If you perform well, I will give you a few benefits."
Everyone was ecstatic and hurriedly kowtowed in thanks to Tree King. Becoming a Saint Son's subordinate would be an enormous blessing,
