One person: plays Wendy, the most carefree director of Nadu.

No?

Chen Duo stared at Su Mu, completely dumbfounded.

What do you mean you all have to join Biyou Village?

Aren't you people who know everything?

Aren't you here to hunt me down?

Should everyone join Biyou Village?

Are you kidding me?

Not only Chen Duo, but all the temporary workers behind her were also stunned.

No child?

When did I ever say I wanted to join Biyou Village?

Zhang Chulan leaned forward and whispered, "Brother Su, is it feasible for us all to join Biyou Village?"

"That Divine Craftsmanship is nothing more than a sugar-coated bullet thrown out by the other side!"

"Don't worry," Su Mu replied softly, "This is called feigning surrender, understand?"

"Let's get our hands on the Divine Machine Hundred Refinements first!"

"My usual approach to dealing with sugar-coated bullets is to eat the sugar first, and then fire the bullets back."

Hearing him say that, Zhang Chulan's lips twitched.

That's what they say, but the problem is, which family's feigned surrender involves everyone surrendering at the same time?

Even if this is a feigned surrender, if the news gets out, will the company believe it?

If the company doesn't believe us, can we still clear our name?

This feigned surrender plan sounds utterly unreliable!

[Ding! Host's strategy seems unreliable. Role-playing progress +1]

Current progress: 60/100

[Unlock Ability - Thousand Winds Laws: Seclusion!]

【Thousand Winds Laws - Reclusion: If you disappear into the wind, no lock in the world can hold you back.】

The host can use a large amount of wind element to blow themselves or their target into a secluded state.

In this state, the outside world cannot touch, perceive, or influence it.

The goal of escapism itself is to be unaffected by time, unable to interact with the outside world, unable to observe or perceive the outside world, and unable to interact with other escapist individuals.

The host can observe and perceive the outside world and interact with other reclusive individuals.

The escapist effect lasts indefinitely until the host cancels it.

This ability can affect up to two units simultaneously.

hiss--

Hearing the system notification in his ear, Su Mu couldn't help but gasp.

Good guy!

This is supposed to be about escaping the world, but in reality, isn't it just exile?

Moreover, in this state, one cannot contact or perceive the outside world, nor can one interact with it. One is unaffected by time, yet can perceive the flow of time...

Isn't this just an enhanced version of the paradise on Nathan Island, Joaquinna?

Eternal torment!

Moreover, I don't have many constraints.

In a state of seclusion, one can interact with other objects and perceive and observe the outside world.

If you lock someone up yourself, wouldn't you torture them to death?

No wonder the system said that when the role-playing progress reaches 60, a qualitative change will occur. It was absolutely true!

The only downside is that this ability can only affect two people at a time, and it seems that although the target in the secluded state is not subject to time restrictions, it is synchronized with the outside timeline.

Therefore, to achieve the effect of Hua Jinna Tianguo, one also needs to enter a state of seclusion and then use the Thousand Winds Decree to accelerate the other party's time changes.

However, it's normal for there to be limitations. Such a divine skill that combines self-preservation and control is already beyond the limit.

Thinking of this, Su Mu smiled at Chen Duo.

"Alright, I told you, we'll join Biyou Village together. Ask Ma Xianhong if he agrees."

He said this and turned to look at the crowd.

"You'll listen to me, right?"

The group looked at each other, and finally nodded.

"Okay, whatever you say."

Seeing this, Chen Duo had no choice but to pick up her phone and make a call.

On the other side, Ma Xianhong was sitting on a large rock in the stream of Biyou Village, admiring the moon.

Hearing his phone ring, he picked it up—

"Hmm? Is it Chen Duo?"

"Why did she call?"

Ma Xianhong was somewhat puzzled.

He had just contacted Qiu Rang, but Qiu Rang hadn't arrived yet.

In other words, Chen Duo is still in a situation where she is taking care of three children on her own.

Under these circumstances, facing pursuit by Su Mu and his group, she would never have had time to make a phone call.

Unless... something unexpected happens.

Could it be that Su Mu has really betrayed them?

The more Ma Xianhong thought about it, the more likely it seemed.

As the owner of the Divine Machine Hundred Refinements, he knew all too well what it felt like to possess the Eight Extraordinary Skills.

Honestly, even someone like me, after learning the Divine Refinement Technique, looked down on all other weapon refiners in the world, believing myself to be a god in the art of weapon refinement.

Su Mu possessed two of the Eight Extraordinary Skills and, being a young man, was naturally even more arrogant.

It's perfectly normal to feel rebellious after being suppressed or warned by the company.

Thinking of this, Ma Xianhong answered the phone with a smile.

"Feed?"

"Hey, village chief, I've delivered your message."

"Well, how did it go?"

Although he asked that question, hearing Chen Duo's calm voice, Ma Xianhong became even more certain of his thoughts.

Su Mu has definitely betrayed us.

Sure enough, Chen Duo's voice came from the other end of the phone—

"Su Mu said he was willing to join Biyou Village."

"Heh, I knew it. He's a smart man; he knows what he wants. I..."

"Village chief, I haven't finished speaking yet."

"He meant he was willing to join Biyou Village, but not alone; he would join all the temporary workers."

"What?!"

Ma Xianhong's eyes suddenly widened.

No?

Did Su Mu bring all the company's temporary workers to Biyou Village?

What kind of international joke is this?

"Hello, can you hear me?"

Su Mu's voice came from the other end of the phone.

Ma Xianhong snapped out of his daze and said, "You must be Su Mu, right?"

"Yes, it's me."

"Village Chief Ma, I am very satisfied with the conditions you offered for me to join Biyou Village, so I plan to bring my brothers with me."

"Village Chief Ma, you won't refuse, will you?"

After a moment's hesitation, Ma Xianhong said, "Of course I won't refuse."

"The new Jie Sect welcomes all those who are willing to change."

"Alright! See you at Biyou Village then!"

"Alright, I'll wait for you to arrive."

After hanging up the phone, Ma Xianhong's grip on the phone tightened slightly.

Just now, it seemed like Su Mu was asking for his opinion, but he knew that he didn't have much of a choice.

He established the New Jie Sect, and its external slogan was "education for all."

If I refuse Su Mu and the others, I'll definitely be the subject of gossip.

Don't be fooled by how respectful these people in Biyou Village are to themselves or the chosen high-potential individuals.

But that's because I gave them magical artifacts, granting them the power of superhumans.

It's like an office worker who has just received a bonus.

If these people truly feel that they are hypocritical, that they are the boss in the company making empty promises, they will definitely leave at any time, just like the employees.

Most importantly, her older sister, Qu Tong, had explicitly told her that she desperately wanted the two Eight Extraordinary Techniques that Su Mu possessed.

If possible, it's best to cultivate a good relationship with Su Mu at all costs.

"Divine strategy and skillful craftsmanship" is essentially a pledge of allegiance.

Going forward, as long as Su Mu is willing, he can even exchange it for one of the other eight extraordinary skills.

Thinking of this, Ma Xianhong took a deep breath.

Well, it's certain that these people have ulterior motives.

However, with their own crafted magical artifacts and the presence of those with superior spiritual potential monitoring them in the village, they are unlikely to cause any trouble!
