[Ding! Congratulations! Obtained a Heaven Immortal realm Pegasus!]

Ah well…

It was a mount, but it was useless to him.

If he really wanted a mount, Wang Mang could capture a Taiyi Golden Immortal realm demon as his mount. After all, he still believed himself to be invincible within the same realm. However, he did not need a mount.

Wang Mang was in a good mood after the wonderful harvest, so he took out the Myriad Fruits Immortal Wine. A jar of wine appeared in Wang Mang’s hand. After removing the lid, the rich fragrance of the wine made Wang Mang feel a little dizzy.

After raising his head and taking a sip, Wang Mang felt as if his entire body was on fire. Vast and pure energy surged wildly within his body. From this, it was obvious why this jar of wine was worth a million energy points.

With this thought, Wang Mang raised his head and drank all of the wine in one go-

This made Wang Mang’s face flush.

This wine was too strong, and even as a Taiyi Golden Immortal realm expert, he felt a little tipsy.

At the same time, the system’s voice rang out.

[Ding! Congratulations! The host has finished drinking the Myriad Fruits Immortal Wine! Obtained 1 million energy points!]

[Ding! Evolution requirements met. Begin evolution?]

“No!”

Wang Mang was elated as he now had 18 million energy points.

All in all, the rewards he had obtained this time were much more bountiful than he had imagined, and he hoped that it would be enough for three evolutions.

All in all, Wang Mang was in a surprisingly good mood.

On the morning of the third day, Wang Mang once again headed to the appointment tent. Unfortunately, while there were more people waiting outside, they were nowhere as strong and imposing on the ones who had shown up on the previous two days.

This did not bode well for today’s appointments.

Sure enough, after entering the tent, Wang Mang found out about the positions up for approval today, which were six centurions and six captains.

Seeing this, Wang Mang became somewhat disinterested.

It could not be helped. After all, the gap in the benefits he would receive for these small fry positions would only be a fraction of what he received before this.

This is why it was said that it was easy to go from poor to rich, but difficult to go from rich to poor.

At this moment, at his desk, Wang Mang slowly opened the wooden box and looked at the half-piece of an immortal peach with a little disgust.

However, the other party was, after all, only applying to be a captain, so being able to take out half a piece of an immortal peach that was 13,000 years old was quite admirable.

Therefore, Wang Mang immediately took the peach and started eating it. While eating, he waved his hand and said, “Leave the documents here!”

Hearing this, the young soldier was overjoyed. He quickly cupped his hands and bowed respectfully. “Yes, Milord.”

After saying that, the Earth Immortal realm soldier left the tent happily.

At the same time, the system’s voice rang out in Wang Mang’s mind.

[Ding! Congratulations! Devoured half of a 13,000-year-old immortal peach. Obtained 20,000 energy points.]

Wang Mang spat out the peach pit in his mouth in disgust. Captain appointments were really a waste of his time.

However, the appointments still had to go on, so he quickly dealt with the appointment positions that he had been given, and managed to obtain 200,000 energy points worth of treasures.

After that, he left the tent dejectedly. He had to work more for less, which was not something he wanted to do. Furthermore, today’s profits were miniscule.

Sigh, forget it. There were bound to be ups and downs in jobs like these.

On the fourth day, after reaching the tent, Wang Mang was even more disappointed in the positions on offer. There were only nine positions, and he only managed to secure 300,000 energy points for the three positions allocated to him,

After Wang Mang left the tent and returned to his manor, he decided to have his substitute puppet take over his job, after which he would be able to leave the Heavenly Court and explore the world.

It was also safer for him to evolve outside the Heavenly Court, so it made sense. In any case, if his puppet could handle things here, he probably would not need to return for some time.

He would allow the puppet to accumulate more treasures for him in the meantime.

Thinking this, Wang Mang muttered, “System, use the Substitute Puppet!”

[Ding! Congratulations! Successfully used the Substitute Puppet!]

As soon as the system finished speaking, a figure suddenly appeared in front of Wang Mang; one that was identical to him, and practically indistinguishable from him.

Furthermore, it exuded an aura and possessed strength similar to his!

Wang Mang was stunned by this.

Moments later, the figure turned to Wang Mang and grinned.

“Greetings, venerable self.”

Wang Mang hurriedly asked, “System, does this substitute puppet possess the same level of strength as me?”

The next moment, the system’s voice rang out.

[Warm Reminder: Yes!]

[Remarks: It possesses all of the host’s divine powers and abilities, and will also never betray the host! The host can issue commands to the puppet, and even control the puppet with the host’s mind!]

[The puppet also has its own consciousness, personality, etc. At the same time, it can also cultivate on its own!]
