C1817 Refuse Recruitment

2Guo Yingjie quickly agreed to save his own life, which was already an act of mercy for him.    

    

Everyone from the Divine Feathers Sect left dejectedly.    

    

This was the might of the Governor Luo Shui.    

    

He didn't make a move. With just a single sentence, he had forced Guo Yingjie to cripple his cultivation level.    

    

After Guo Yingjie left, Li Longqing shifted his gaze to Lu Yu.    

    

"Which army are you from?" Li Longqing asked patiently, but his eyes were looking at Lu Yu from head to toe, shining brightly.    

    

Lu Yu had just experienced two big battles, and his body was extremely weak. He couldn't even circulate a trace of his magic power. Even an ordinary cultivator could take Lu Yu's life.    

    

But even so, Lu Yu still straightened his back, and didn't bow to him because of his status as the governor.    

    

"This subordinate is the hundred-man commander under the command of the Thunderwhale, Desolate Yang!" Lu Yu's voice was neither servile nor overbearing.    

    

"Centurion? So it was Xiahou Li's subordinate. Looking at your strength, I'm afraid you can be compared to the Great General. Under the Thunder Whale Earl, there are indeed hidden dragons and crouching tigers."    

    

Li Longqing directly said," You are merely a small Centurion under his command. Why don't you follow me? This official can request merits from the Imperial Court and confer you the title of Great General. What do you think? "    

    

This temptation was simply irresistible.    

    

If Lu Yu really agreed, he would very likely become the youngest Great General in Great Yu's Imperial Court.    

    

Even some of the surrounding soldiers looked at Lu Yu with envy.    

    

One should know that the criteria for judging people were famous for their strictness.    

    

The fact that he was able to make such an exception and promote Lu Yu showed how much he valued Lu Yu.    

    

Lu Yu thought for a moment, cupped his hands, and said, "Uncle Thunderwhale owes me a debt of gratitude for my knowledge. I will not go back on my word. Lord Governor, you should ask someone else."    

    

What?    

    

Everyone present was stunned. They had never expected Lu Yu to give such an answer.    

    

If he was being modest on purpose, it would be better to decline the offer. However, Lu Yu's words didn't leave any chance for them to survive.    

    

This was the personal invitation of a governor, and Lu Yu had actually rejected it.    

    

Li Longqing shook his head and sighed. "It's a pity that I still do not have the fortune to do so."    

    

Pei Tianguang also felt that it was a pity. "Xiao Yang, could it be that you don't want to think about it anymore? This opportunity is extraordinary to you. "    

    

Lu Yu said, "I've made up my mind. Lord, it's better not to say anymore."    

    

Lu Yu had considered many things before rejecting the offer.    

    

However, the most crucial point was that although the governor of Luo Shui was strong enough, in Lu Yu's opinion, it was not a place he could rely on.    

    

Although the governor seemed to have a high position, he was only a Rank Two official.    

    

As for the Divine Might Marquis, he was a Rank One military official of the Imperial Court. Not only did he hold military power, but his status was also much higher than that of a Provincial Governor.    

    

If Lu Yu really followed the Provincial Governor, his final achievements would not be higher than the Provincial Governor.    

    

What Lu Yu wanted to do was make Shen Linglong and Xu Guizong pay the price. A corner was not what he wanted.    

    

"Fine. You have killed an Earth Immortal expert this time. I will send someone to report this battle credit to the Ministry of War. This battle credit is enough for you to be promoted to general. I believe that the Ministry of War will send an official document soon." Li Longqing said in a deep voice.    

    

Lu Yu cupped his fists and said, "Thank you, sir!"    

    

With the Governor personally guaranteeing the election, he believed that his identity as a general would be established very quickly.
