Chapter 3439: Xiao Zhizhi Shu: That's right, the president is hinting at me, Xiao Zhizhi Shu!

Su Han rolled his eyes, but then offered a suggestion to those participating in the mission.

Su Xiao Xiao: "Do any of you know a tech-side bigshot inside the guild that you're on good terms with? You could totally ask them for some powerful tech props."

Batman: "......"

Tony Is Not The Richest: "I think the president is hinting at......"

Xiao Zhizhi Shu: "That's right! It's me, Xiao Zhizhi Shu!"

Qian Shi Qianxun: ""

Niang Shanshan: "...... At first Tony Stark was trying to talk about himself, right?"

Seeing Tony Stark get slapped in the face, Niang Shanshan curled the corner of her mouth into a muddled smile, found it very interesting, and took another sip of wine.

Yato: "These flashy moves just threw out my back."

Minami Kotori: "But, this is pretty normal, right? Xiao Zhizhi Shu previously went to the Demon Slayer world and helped the people there deal with the demons...... You say her relationship with Kocho Shinobu is bad — do you believe that?"

Rick: "Real."

Su Xiao Xiao: "Let's end the chitchat here, get ready to join the mission."

Su Han pressed his lips together, then opened his eyes and looked over the Sect Leader and the old Hou Jue beside him.

"Then I'll head over there first."

Su Han paused briefly, looking at the two of them with some helplessness, "Can you two not make a move while I'm away?"

"Don't worry, sworn brother,"

Luo Cuilian said in a calm voice, "as long as that... overreaching fellow across from me doesn't provoke me.

I won't strike first either! After all, this world is my world too, and I don't want to see it destroyed at my hands."

"What big talk."

The old Hou Jue's face turned icy, and he sneered, "But this kind of sharp, venomous tongue is............ very fitting of your title as a heretic...... It's truly fortunate that Mr. President can put up with you.

Old hag!"

The gunpowder between the two was thick enough to explode at any moment.

Su Han's eye twitched, but he wasn't surprised.

When he had tea with the old Hou Jue earlier, the atmosphere on site had always been like this, so much so that he had even begun to wonder whether bringing the Sect Leader to meet the old Hou Jue had been a mistake.

Sighing softly, Su Han turned to look at the two girls attending the Sect Leader and the old Hou Jue, "Young Lady Erica, Young Lady Liliana, I hope you can step in to counsel them when their conflict reaches its peak."

The expressions of both knight-girls turned: stiff.

Even though they were the pride of the younger generation, and under the very occasional guidance of two God-Slayers had reached the true Great Knight rank, standing as the strongest beneath the God-Slayers, capable of fighting divine beasts...... the aura the two God-Slayers couldn't fully suppress while conversing was already suffocating them; if they truly tried to counsel...... should the two turn murderous toward them, they could just go.

After a brief silence, Erica's face set with resolve, "King! Please rest assured, I stake my very life...... I will never let the two Majesties fall into tangled conflict."

"Yes,"

Liliana bit down — the pressure was immense, but her words were firm, "We will definitely wait until you return."

Liliana, while nervous, also sighed inwardly.

Why was it that the other......... unruly God-Slayers didn't have personalities like the one before her... this Eastern Majesty — he could be considered the most approachable God-Slayer they had ever encountered.

More importantly, such a good-natured young newly-advanced God-Slayer could so easily keep the other two God-Slayers in check.

From this one could imagine this one's strength, breadth of mind, magnanimity, and even personal charisma.

"You two,"

Su Han, having heard both their thoughts, looked once more in speechless exasperation at the Sect Leader and the old Hou Jue, "don't make things too hard for them.

I'll be back soon!"

As his words fell, Su Han clicked submit on the mission; a streak of resplendent light coiled around his body, and when the light faded, Su Han's figure vanished from the spot as if it had never been.

After a brief silence, Luo Cuilian, her face icy, continued drinking tea, completely ignoring the old Hou Jue.

The old Hou Jue narrowed his eyes and sighed faintly, "Then I'll give the president some face......"

"Maybe giving him this face will improve my luck next time, and I'll draw a mission."

"...... Sworn brother already said long ago that the mission lottery has nothing to do with him."

Luo Cuilian's face was expressionless — if manipulating the lottery were something that could be done by manipulating it,

then she, Black Cat, and even Lei Muleimu's number of mission participations would absolutely not be limited to just these.............

"I know,"

The old Hou Jue nodded frankly, "so what I said was its surface meaning...... giving the president face will raise my luck!"

"......"

Although Luo Cuilian still felt the old Hou Jue was making a futile effort, she said nothing more.

The old Hou Jue's eyes shifted, suddenly thinking of something amusing; he turned his head toward Liliana beside him and said with a smile.

..........."Come to think of it, after knowing the president for so long, I haven't given him any gift...... The magic scrolls I gave before — thinking about it now, they feel too embarrassing."

"...... What do you mean?"

Luo Cuilian's brows knit.

Liliana also sensed something bad, but she could only look pitifully at the two Kings before her, not daring to say a word.

The old Hou Jue said unhurriedly, "Liliana, my knight...... I want to gift you to the president. Are you willing?"

"Me!"

Liliana's cheeks flushed bright red in an instant.

"You—"

Luo Cuilian thought for a moment, then suddenly laughed and didn't refuse, "If it were that fellow Wugeng Liuli, your words might seriously offend her."

"It doesn't matter,"

The old Hou Jue replied indifferently, "Although she is suspected of having stepped into the Second Tier, between Seconds there is still a gap."

Although the old Hou Jue wasn't in the first tier, he was the gatekeeper of the first tier.

In other words, if one could defeat the old Hou Jue, then one would at least be a quasi-first-tier existence.

As one of the earliest members to join the guild, he was... this powerful and terrifying.

"What if she drags her old father over here?"

Luo Cuilian stared at the old Hou Jue with a playful look.

Seeing the old Hou Jue choked for words, her mood instantly improved a great deal.

The old Hou Jue fell silent, his brows furrowing.
