(Chapter 439 onward: Immortal Emperor breaks through apocalypse in a frozen world)
Li Mu cultivated for tens of thousands of years, finally becoming the number one Immortal Emperor in the Imm...
Cao Quan's residence was not far from the station, and the three of them arrived in half an hour's walk.
This is a dilapidated courtyard that looks very simple from the outside, but once you go inside, it is a completely different scene. It is not only kept clean, but also decorated extremely luxuriously.
"You old thing seem to be enjoying yourself so much that you made your doghouse so luxurious! Aren't you afraid of people getting jealous?" Bai Tao exclaimed in amazement.
"Hmph~ This is the money I saved after begging for 1,300 years. Who can say anything?" Cao Quan snorted coldly. However, although he said this, it did not mean that he had no concerns, otherwise he would not have made the exterior so shabby.
"You are really determined. If it were me, I would rather use the money to enjoy myself than spend it in vain. This money can allow me to lie down at home for hundreds of years." Bai Tao said.
"Everyone has their own aspirations." Cao Quan said calmly, "Do you still think that the 50 yuan is a waste? If you stay in an inn, you can't live in such a nice house even if you spend 5,000, let alone 50."
"Hehe, that's it, that's it." Bai Tao said with a smile.
Of course, Li Mu didn't feel anything about these. After all, he had just arrived in this world today. Compared with his palace in the fairyland, Cao Quan's residence was not even as good as a doghouse.
"Do you want to have a midnight snack? I'll give you some." Cao Quan said.
"Okay, hehe." Bai Tao nodded repeatedly.
Li Mu felt a little hungry at this time. After all, he didn't touch the meal in the afternoon. So he nodded and said, "Thank you, Brother Cao."
After dinner, Cao Quan arranged rooms for the two of them and they went back to their rooms to sleep.
No words were spoken that night.
The next morning, after breakfast, the three of them went to the begging union.
On the way, Bai Tao said in a bad tone: "Lao Cao, what do you mean? I found this new guy. I took him to the union to register. Why are you following me?"
"I'm a board member of the Jianyang City branch. Why can't I go to the union to handle official business?" Cao Quan said calmly.
"That's better!" Bai Tao snorted coldly and took Li Mu onto the bus. Cao Quan naturally followed.
Jianyang has a permanent population of 80 million, and people in this world are not very willing to live in high-rise buildings. Basically, they live in small courtyards for each family. Therefore, the city is very large. Fortunately, Cao Quan's residence is not far from the trade union. They took two buses and arrived at the trade union in 2 hours.
The union is also located in a simple courtyard with a plaque hanging outside with the words "Beggars' Union Jianyang City Branch" inscribed on it. This is also the residence of the president, who does not work here on weekdays because the president also needs to go out begging and is not allowed to use other sources of income, such as paying his salary from union dues. Otherwise, it would violate the regulations that fifth-class citizens are not allowed to engage in industry, agriculture, politics or business.
Fortunately, Bai Tao called the president early in the morning, so the president did not go out to beg today, but waited in the yard early for the arrival of several people.
This was an old man who looked very old. When he saw Li Mu and his friends coming in, he came forward and said, "Haha~ Welcome, little brother, to join our big family! Are you adapting well in this new world?"
Li Mu smiled bitterly. This was obviously a sad thing, but why did it seem like it was worth being happy about? He was not here for tourism.
"President, I just came here to inquire about some things. I have no intention of joining your union yet." Li Mu said.
"Brother Li Mu, that's not what we said before. I told you that we have to accept our fate when we come here. Why are you so persistent? Do you have to get yourself beaten to a bloody pulp before you give up?" Bai Tao was a little anxious, as this was related to his bonus.
"Maybe, but I still want to try it." Li Mu said.
"You little brat..."
"It's okay. I understand. Every newcomer needs some time to adapt. Just register first. By the way, this is a communication tool in this world. It is provided free of charge to newcomers by the union. It contains my contact information. When you feel more open-minded one day, you can just call me directly." The old man smiled. He was not unhappy because of Li Mu's direct refusal. As he spoke, he handed Li Mu something similar to a mobile phone.
"Oh~ Forget it, President, then you should first pay for my hospitality and travel expenses." Bai Tao said helplessly. In fact, he didn't have much hope that Li Mu would join the union today. After all, who among those who came from the Qiongzu Universe was not a superpower? It was impossible to make them accept reality in one day. He just wanted to fight for it, but as long as Li Mu registered, he would officially join sooner or later, and the bonus he deserved as the recommender would naturally be given to him at that time.
"Xiao Cao, please go and get me our roster so that this young man can register first." The president said to Cao Quan.
Li Mu did not stop the president's proposal. After all, he came here to ask questions and he couldn't be too disrespectful to him. It was just a registration anyway and he was not asked to join now. It was also a good opportunity to see the strength of this union.
After a while, Cao Quan went to an office and took out a thick book.
Li Mu filled in the form directly according to the format above.
"Little brother, you only need to fill in your name and your mobile phone number. As for the rest, we will assign them to you when you have figured it out." The president reminded.
Li Mu looked at the few spaces at the back, which were a number and a begging location.
"Don't I need to fill in my cultivation level for this?" Li Mu was puzzled. He was still thinking about seeing the strength of the members of the Beggars' Union.
"Haha, little brother, you're joking. A hero doesn't brag about his past achievements. We are now in the present, what's the point of mentioning our past achievements? Of course, if you want to hold a position in the union, your previous achievements are still very important. After all, only in this way can you win the support of the people." The president said with a smile.
"Brother Li Mu, you'd better forget about it. Lao Cao was once the God of Chaos and he was just a member of the board of directors of our Jianyang City branch. You'd better forget about being the Immortal Ancestor of Heaven." Bai Tao said with a smile.
"What about President, what realm have you been in?" Li Mu asked curiously.
"Our president's surname is Geng and his name is Xian. He used to be the Chaos Immortal Ancestor and the 135th elder of the Juling Sect!" said Bai Tao.
When Li Mu heard this, his heart started pounding. The Juling Sect was one of the six powerful forces in the Qiongzu Universe. This president was definitely a big shot in the Chaos Sea. He was also a vested interest group and an absolute enemy of himself. If his Qiongzu Universe met him, he would probably not be able to escape. But now, he was chatting and laughing with the other party!
"Haha~ These are all old things, let's not talk about them!" Geng Xian stroked his beard and smiled, but a hint of pride appeared on his face.
