"Your Majesty, I have something to say." He walked forward and bowed to Wuhan. Seeing Wuhan nodding his head, he continued, "I would like to resign from my post effective immediately!"
Everyone was shocked to hear the selfless words of the elder. The first ones to react were none other than Zhang Er's two brothers who were standing behind him.
"What?! Little Er, do you have any idea what you are saying?"
"Your Majesty, please ignore Big Brother's words. He is not thinking clearly."
"Big brother, Little San, I know what I am doing. If the empire loses the chance to recruit such talent because of my old bones, I cannot bear the weight of such a sin."
Facing his brothers who tried to persuade him, Zhang Er simply smiled bitterly and shook his head.
He did not show any dissatisfaction towards the young man. After all, in the cultivation world, only those with talent are given preference.
