Unfortunate Hero's Retirement Life

Chapter 84: Ceremony and Offer (2)

Recruiting the new-rising hero was normal to a big family and in fact, another purpose of the ceremony was to introduce an upper society to the new hero.

Why? The purpose was to help the new hero to grow stronger. A big family would provide enough resources for the hero to grow strong. Just like drugs that could make one grow stronger, a secret technique, or even equipment.

All heroes without the background would join a big force and now, Bai Xin Yue represented Bai Family showing their intention to recruit Sun Zhou Yi.

Sun Zhou Yi's potential was enormous and in fact, people secretly thought Sun Zhou Yi was on par with Emperor Class Hero.

If not Sun Zhou Yu was lacking in achievement, everyone believed Sun Zhou Yi would be promoted to Emperor Class by now. With such a huge potential, the Bai Family was the first force to make a move.

The surrounding people shifted their eyes between Sun Zhou Yi and Bai Xin Yue. These people came to the ceremony had the same notion, it was to recruit Sun Zhou Yi into their forces.

Before Sun Zhou Yi could give his answer, the sound of shoes clashed against the floor was heard amidst the silence. Bai Xin Yue's eyes peered toward Sun Zhou Yi's back and a slight frown appeared on her smooth forehead.

Sun Zhou Yi turned around and found a sharp-looking man in a dark red suit on his way toward him. The man had his black hair doned neatly to one side and wore a slight smile.

This man appeared to be in his mid-twenties and he gave off a strong aura, but also friendliness with his smile. As the man in a red suit arrived in front of Sun Zhou Yi, he extended his hand, "Hello, I am Yang Mushen, pleased to meet you."

Yang Mushen, Gold Class Hero - Rank 6 and hailed from one of the big families, Yang Family. He was quite famous as a high ranking hero and Sun Zhou Yi recognized this man.

"Sun Zhou Yi, nice to meet you as well," Sun Zhou Yu responded politely as he reached Yang Mushen's hand.

As they had a handshake, Yang Mushed continued in an excited tone, "Hah, I could finally meet my idol. Brother Sun, you have become my idol, the way you stopped the horde was amazing that made my blood boil!"

Sun Zhou Yi did not know how to return it, but he took it as a compliment and replied in the same manner as before, "Thanks, you are overpraising me, but I only did what I can to stop the horde"

After an exchange of greetings, Yang Mushen leered at Sun Zhou Yi's back and smiled ear to ear as he spotted Bai Xin Yue.

"Hello, sister-in-law~ You made move so fast that force me to make my move as well," Yang Mushen greeted Bai Xin Yue gleefully. The sharp look he showed Sun Zhou Yi changed when he faced Bai Xin Yue.

The frown on her forehead was getting deeper, but Bai Xin Yue gave a cold shoulder to Yang Mushen. She ignored him and the frosty look of her was back.

Meanwhile, Sun Zhou Yi was surprised by the way of Yang Mushen addressed Bai Xin Yue. Sister-in-law, which also meant Bai Xin Yue already married. Xiao Xi who stood next to Sun Zhou Yi also surprised.

Bai Xin Yue could be said was an idol to a woman like. She knew that Bai Xin Yue had not married yet. At least, there was no issue telling Bai Xin Yue already married.

Yang Mushen's arrival turned the atmosphere a bit awkward to Sun Zhou Yi. He just did not know how to continue the conversation with these two elites with him. Xiao Xi also felt uncomfortable with Yang Mushen around.

"Yo, Young Master Mushen, but it's a pity that your big brother's dream to marry my sister will never come true. My sister has set a man to be her partner and it's not your big brother!" a cheerful voice chimed in.

Not only Sun Zhou Yi, but Yang Mushen also turned at the voice. A girl in the green dress came into Sun Zhou Yi's sight and he recognized this girl. She was the attendant he met when he reported Yuan Chang.

Even though he knew this girl's identity, but he did not know her name yet. As another one joined the convo, Sun Zhou Yi was getting more headaches to handle this. Moreover, he perceived a great dislike from Bai Xin Yue and her sister toward the man called Yang Mushen.

Yang Mushen had a distressed look upon finding Bai Xin Yue's sister. It was as if he met his archenemy that he could not defeat.

However, Yang Mushen's expression only made Bai Xin Yue's little sister grin wider as she continued gleefully, "And my grandpa also agrees No, instead it was my grandpa's decision to marry my sister to that man,"

Hearing this, Yang Mushen face-palmed as he could not believe what he heard. He peered at Bai Xin Yue, what he found was a helpless look on Bai Xin Yue's face. It told him that what Bai Xin Yue's sister was telling the truth.

"Brother must know about this"

After a moment of silence, Yang Mushen turned away from Bai Xin Yue had his eyes on toward Sun Zhou Yi. For now, he had to prioritize his task and ignored the little imp.

"Brother Sun, I come here to invite you to join my family. Yang Family welcomes you and we will help you with everything you need. Also" Yang Mushen came closer to Sun Zhou Yi and whispered something.

Bai Xin Yue narrowed her eyes. Somehow, she did not like where this would go.

After a while, Yang Mushen stepped back and a victorious smile emerged on his lips as he noticed the surprise on Sun Zhou Yi's face. He thought everything was going as he planned.

"If you are interested, we can exchange a contact now and let's meet on another day~" Yang Mushen brought his smartwatch, but to his surprise, Sun Zhou Yi returned his offer with a shake of his head.

"I'm sorry and thank you, Brother Yang, but I have to reject your offer," After that, he turned around to Bai Xin Yue, "Miss Bai, Thank you and I am sorry, I can't join your family as well."

While refusing Yang Mushen's offer, Sun Zhou Yi took this chance to say his refusal to Bai Xin Yue as well. This earned Bai Xin Yue and Yang Mushen's surprise.

"Brother Sun, you don't have to refuse hastily like this. You can think over for a few days and then you can make your decision afterward." Yang Mushen had not given up yet.

At this time, Bai Xin Yue could not help but agree with Yang Mushen. She also nodded her head. Hero with big potential like Sun Zhou Yi needed support from a big family. Without the support of the big family, Sun Zhou Yi would not be able to grow as fast as before.

Bai Xin Yue and Yang Mushen believed this fact as many heroes had done that and ended up joining the big faction. Moreover, if Sun Zhou Yi wanted to reach Emperor Class safely and smoothly, he had to join a faction.

"No, my decision will remain the same. I can't join any faction because" Sun Zhou Yi paused here. He wanted to say that he was in his Master's faction and would not join other factions. However, he did not know if he could tell about his Master to them without Heero's consent.

"Because?" Bai Xin Yue and Yang Mushen blurted out simultaneously.

"Because of I already part of other faction, so I can't join yours," Sun Zhou Yi continued and then, he looked down at his smartwatch, "Ah, it's almost twelve already, I have to go back now,"

With that being said, Sun Zhou Yu looked back at Bai Xin Yue and Yang Mushen, "Excuse me, Brother Yang, Miss Bai, I have to go now,"

After that, Sun Zhou Yi walked toward the direction where the Xing District's people gathered. The Hero League set a special place at the corner of the banquet hall for them and had a few guards watched over them.

Even though the Hero League's HQ and the scene in the core region left them in awe, but not the people. They could feel clear discrimination even from the Hero League's people. They could tell that there were unwelcomed here.

It left them a bad impression rather than an enjoyable experience from visiting the core region which they dreamed of.

Sun Zhou Yi also clear about this, that was why he wanted to go back as soon as possible. He attended the banquet was merely giving a face to Bai Xian Ming who invited him

Moreover, today was his Master's special day. He had to go back and celebrated it with his master.

Butcher Wang noticed Sun Zhou Yi coming toward him. Amongst the group, Butcher Wang was the one most impatient. Being despising everywhere he went, it pissed him off.

However, he could not just leave this place. He came with Sun Zhou Yi and the people who watched them won't him go back without Sun Zhou Yi.

"Finally, you are back," Butcher Wang said it in a relieved tone and added in an annoyed tone, "It's unbearable here, let's go back!"

Sun Zhou Yi nodded apologetically as he was not expected even the heroes would view the people of the outer region the same as the others.

"Good, we will go back now,"

Just as Sun Zhou Yi wanted to leave with the others, Bai Xian Ming walked toward him.

"Yo, Little Sun, where are you going?" despite his old age, Bai Xian Ming appeared quite energetic.

"Hello, Executive Bai. I have another matter to attend to, I have to go back now," Sun Zhou Yi politely replied.

Hearing this, Bai Xian Ming astonished. How could the main character leave the banquet as soon as it started? He frowned in displeasure at Sun Zhou Yi.

"Why do you leave? The Banquet just started!" unconsciously, Bai Xian Ming raised his voice. He said it in a questioning tone as He did not bother to hide his anger at the ignorant young'un.

This banquet was for Sun Zhou Yi, but he did not appreciate it and intended to leave as soon as the banquet started. Bai Xian Ming was angry at this, introducing Sun Zhou Yi to the upper society would benefit him, but Sun Zhou Yi appeared did not care about this.
