After reassuring Shi Zhen and telling him not to entertain any thoughts of lifting the curse, Manager Ying went to find the Former President.
"What-"
The Former President was also astonished after hearing Manager Ying out.
"How did I get dragged into this?"
"Old man, you don't look very happy," Manager Ying said in surprise. His reaction was the complete opposite of Shi Zhen's!
Wasn't an opportunity this tremendous... something to be thrilled about?!
"I've had enough," the Former President said helplessly. "I've had enough of being a Beast Tamer. I was already planning to retire after the World War."
"I just wanted to do whatever I felt like afterward. Now you want me to work for a Legendary Lifeform?"

"What's one more position?"
"Didn't he say I would just be lending my name, with no obligations?"

Manager Ying silently grumbled to herself.
"No problem! You can just lend your name to Divine Turtle too. Whenever Divine Turtle has a task, just ping Lu Ran and me, and we'll do it for you. When Divine Turtle pays you, we'll split it thirty-thirty-forty! All you have to do is sit back and collect your pay."

"You two... really are talents of Xia Country..."
