Chapter 1075 Phoenix Perch House (2/2)

In the middle of the three figures was a graceful man with hair tied up and a strand of golden braid flowed down his back. He wore a calm expression, but the slight tilt in the corners of his lips showed hidden arrogance.

He was Han Jinhe.

Left of Han Jinhe sat a beautiful woman. The woman had short, dry hair and was dressed in a loose training robe, but that couldn’t hide her fiery curvaceous body.

She was Xue Qingmei.

The man on the right was burly, dark and hairy, and his bronze-like eyes were filled with fiendish aura that would terrify one to the core.

He was Wang Su.

The three were strongest experts recruited by the Tianyuan Region.

”It is said the people chosen from the nine regions in Hunyuan Heaven will soon meet each other,” said Han Jinhe indifferently.

“Has the Tianyuan Region still not given us an answer?” Xue Qingmei said, frowning.

”We aren’t asking for much. Just a captain position. We don't want to be commanded.”

As unaffiliated cultivators, they had witnessed too many underhanded means, and some commanders even used their teammates as cannon fodder and sacrificed them as they wished.

Wang Su said angrily, “I can accept Qin Lian being captain but if grand elder Zhou Yuan is forced to command because of his identity, he will cause many casualties. How can I let down the brothers I brought with me?”

Han Jinhe whispered, ”Today is the deadline. If they don't give us a response, I plan to leave the Tianyuan Region.”

”Wherever Brother Han goes, we will follow!” Voices rang behind Han Jinhe.

Xue Qingmei and Wang Su also nodded.

When the three expressed their stance, almost half the unaffiliated cultivators in the building immediately echoed their words, while the other half exchanged worried and hesitated glances with one another.

While the inside of the building was in chaos, a Heavenly Sun expert from the Tianyuan Region appeared and said to Han Jinhe and the others, ”Elder Qin Lian would like to see you.”

Han Jinhe and the others exchanged glances, a trace of a smile on their lips. It seemed the Tianyuan Region couldn't bear the pressure and gave in.

They stood up and followed the Heavenly Sun expert upstairs. They pushed open a door and entered a spacious hall.

The tall and elegant Qin Lian caught their attention as soon as they stepped into the hall.

But to their surprise, Qin Lian wasn’t seated in the main seat.

They puzzledly stared at the young man who was. The young man watched them enter the hall without a ripple of expression.

Han Jinhe narrowed his eyes, and his mind raced, as he tried to figure out the young man’s identity.

“This must be the Tianyuan Regions’s grand elder Zhou Yuan, isn’t that right?”

He paused, but before waiting for Zhou Yuan's answer, he said, ”Since grand elder Zhou Yuan is here, the matter can be dealt with much easier. Has the Tianyuan Region agreed to our request?”

Zhou Yuan’s eyelid fluttered. “You three applied to be captain?”

Han Jinhe nodded lightly.

Xue Qingmei and Wang Su stared calmly at Zhou Yuan.

Zhou Yuan similarly stared at the three, and after a while, he smiled and set down the tea cup in his hand.

”I'm sorry, I declined your request.”
