章 2657: Liyu Zhen Does Not Believe It

"Yes." The old man knew what Liyu Zhen was thinking. After a brief pause, he said, "Han Sen did a better job than you. Therefore, he is better suited for looking after the star tree."

"That is impossible! I bet he didn't even kill 1000 King star beetles. How can you claim he did a better job than me?" Liyu Zhen demanded. He simply couldn't believe this.

He knew Han Sen had been chased by a deified star beetle the whole time. There was no way he could still have done a better job than one of the Very High.

"Go take a look. You can find out for yourself." Instead of explaining, the old man gestured absently up at the tree.

Liyu Zhen had received a recommendation for this job. The old man didn't really care about Liyu Zhen's personal feelings, but he still owed the young man an explanation. Otherwise, others would question the choice. Han Sen wouldn't earn the job properly, and people would speak ill of the events of the day.
