134: Chapter 134 He said, he doesn't want to join you!

"Huh??"

The Fatty was stunned on the spot, but quickly exerted all his effort to continue acting aggrieved, "Wuwuwu! Lord Song! What's wrong with you! Are you still okay or not?"

Lin Tianyi and Wang Shan, who followed behind, looked at Song Yiqing's exhausted state and also revealed a look of helplessness. 'No matter how strong one is, there will still be a moment of exhaustion.'

Lin Tianyi let out a deep breath. Song Yiqing, who was usually invincible and seemed like a small sun that would never run dry, could also have moments where he was exhausted to the point of collapse.

However, he was also secretly relieved. At least Song Yiqing was not an immortal deity and still had times when he needed them. Otherwise, they would truly become abandoned pawns.

Lin Tianyi put away his thoughts and immediately looked at Wang Shan, who was to the side, and whispered a reminder: "Pay more attention to the surroundings. Song Yiqing has overexerted himself and it will be difficult for him to detect danger in advance."

"Got it." Wang Shan nodded slightly while tightening her grip on the long blade in her hand. As for Zhe Ningchuan and the others who were about to arrive, she had absolutely no defenses against them. After all, they were all 'comrades-in-arms' fighting against monsters, so there shouldn't be any problems.

At this moment, Lu Ziliang walked up a step ahead.

He first nodded to Lin Tianyi, Zhang Qilin, and the others, then looked at the 'extremely weak' Song Yiqing. After thinking for a moment, he finally spoke, "Mr. Song, if possible, I would like to represent the Forbidden Land Exploration Official and invite you to join us!"

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone in the Archaeological Team became quite excited. Ding Sixing said excitedly, "With Song Yiqing here, we will definitely be able to solve the secret of the Forbidden Land's formation!! No! It's not about solving the secret anymore; it's that we will definitely be able to resolve the Black Mountain Great Buddha Temple Forbidden Land!"

However, Shi Yao, who was on the side, frowned slightly, looking slightly displeased.

But considering that this was Lu Ziliang's recruitment, he ultimately gave up on speaking. After all, Song Yiqing's combat power was indeed quite impressive; having him would be like adding wings to a tiger.

...

In the bullet comment section, [This counts as a relatively formal recruitment! Previously, the Flying Tiger Archaeological Expedition Team only used the live stream bullet comments to recruit. It was understandable that they were rejected, after all, they hadn't even met in person.]

[Yeah! This face-to-face communication definitely brings a different effect. Lord Song has no reason to refuse. Being with the official personnel, generally speaking, there is strength in numbers!]

[Especially since Song Yiqing's consumption this time is indeed a bit high. With consecutive major battles, even a superman would be exhausted to death. Following the official personnel, along with the three martial artists on the official side, the safety will be much higher. Being able to buy time to recover physical strength and Qi is very critical.]

The viewers kept discussing and analyzing all the advantages, but just at this moment, Song Yiqing 'struggled' to raise his head and said, "I'm used to being free and undisciplined; I don't like being constrained. I didn't like it before, and I won't like it in the future. So, thank you for your kindness, Professor."

As he spoke, he put all his body weight onto Zhang Qilin, as if he had completely collapsed. His answer left Lu Ziliang slightly stunned, "What? You..."

"Professor, this kind of person is not worth our recruitment!" Shi Yao stood out and said sternly,

"We have already given him the utmost respect. It is clear that he has collapsed into a dead weight now. Following us only benefits him. If he is unwilling even then, there is no need for us to stick our hot faces to his cold buttocks."

"Shi Yao, you've gone too far with those words," Lu Ziliang frowned and criticized him, and the latter lowered his head without retorting.

Then Lu Ziliang began to speak, "Mr. Song, we..."

Clang———— Suddenly, a sword was drawn by Wang Xianzhi and placed directly on Lu Ziliang's shoulder.

"He said he doesn't want to join you!!"

"..." Lu Ziliang did not speak, just stared tightly at Song Yiqing. He wanted to say something, but ultimately decided against it. However, Wang Xianzhi's sudden drawing of her sword caused the atmosphere at the scene to become quite tense.

"What are you doing! Are you trying to fight us?" Shi Yao said as he stepped forward, wanting to push the sword away, but he immediately recalled the powerful strength the other party had displayed during the battle just now, and immediately withdrew his hand.

"Let me tell you! Don't think that just because you killed some monsters, you can be arrogant and look down on everyone, or even think that we, the official team, are useless! I..."

"That is a fact," Wang Xianzhi interrupted him unceremoniously and retorted, "Without us, you would all be dead here today!"

"You, you, you!!" Shi Yao was so angry at her words that his lungs were about to explode, but it just so happened to be the truth. Ding Sixing quickly stepped forward to pull him away, repeatedly saying "Professor, calm down," before finally pulling him back.

And it was at this moment that Zhe Ningchuan, who had remained silent all along, spoke up, "Everyone has their own path; everyone has their own habits."

As he spoke, he raised his hand to guide the sword blade away from Lu Ziliang's shoulder. "Professor Lu, those with different paths cannot make plans together. Let's go."

"Okay." Lu Ziliang nodded slightly, but after walking only three steps, he looked back at Song Yiqing again, then looked away, feeling quite regretful.

Wang Xianzhi curled her lips and muttered, "I hate official people the most; they are all hypocritical to death."

"..." "..." "..." Everyone at the scene looked at Wang Xianzhi with helplessness, and then one after another looked away.

At this time, the Fatty lowered his voice to offer a reminder, "Um, Lord Song came out of the Kyoto University of Archaeology, so he can be considered half an official person."

"?" Wang Xianzhi raised her willow eyebrows. "And then? I wasn't talking about him."

"..." The Fatty nodded, thinking to himself that having strong strength really makes one tough.

However, when he looked at Song Yiqing, he was somewhat unable to understand what the "good show is about to begin" that the other party mentioned meant. But since everyone was pretending to sleep right now, he couldn't ask more.

He cast his gaze toward Lin Tianyi, "Old Lin, what do we do now? Which way do we go?"

"This way!" Before Lin Tianyi could speak, Zhang Qilin pointed directly in one direction and said.

The Fatty was confused at first, but after looking at Song Yiqing, he instantly understood. Talk about committing to the act!

...

Meanwhile, within the Mad Wolf Archaeological Expedition Team, Shi Yao was still somewhat indignant, "This Song Yiqing really doesn't know what's good for him, and that Wang Xianzhi is too arrogant. Does she really think that a cultivator can be lawless? To actually place a sword on someone like Elder Lu, a titan of the archaeological world!"

"Alright, alright," Lu Ziliang shook his head slightly, "Say less. This kind of thing, in itself, cannot be blamed on him. After all, if it weren't for that matter with Kyoto University of Archaeology, Song Yiqing should have been a member of our Archaeological Team."
