Now, Chen Yuan was their immediate superior!

Their positions were now different.

Yue Shan, on the other hand, was sincerely happy for Chen Yuan, feeling that he had not recommended the wrong person. He had shone brightly as soon as he entered the Sky Survey Division. First, he recovered the dirty silver, showing his mettle, and then he was promoted to the Core Forging Realm, becoming a Sky Surveyor.

Entering the Sky Survey Division was where he could truly display his ambitions.

"I will have to rely on everyone in the future..."

Chen Yuan said with a smile.

This time, he did not establish his authority like when he took office as a constable before. Yue Shan and the others knew him, and although their relationship was not very close, it was definitely not distant. Moreover, Mo Donghe, according to Zhang Xuan, was a very prudent person.

He was only devoted to martial arts and had never had any other thoughts.

Of course, whether this was the case would have to be determined by time.

After Zhang Xuan gave some more instructions, he left alone, leaving the place to Chen Yuan.

From then on, the official office here would no longer be named Zhang but Chen.

As soon as Zhang Xuan left, Yue Shan and others immediately stepped forward to greet and congratulate him. Chen Yuan replied with a smile, without the condescending attitude, which relieved Yang Feng and others.

Before long, Chen Yuan's rewards were delivered to him.

Five Xuanling Pills, five hundred taels of silver, ten bolts of brocade...

After he took over, the things were put down, and Yue Shan and the others crowded around him and went outside to drink. According to his intention, how could such a happy event not be celebrated with a big drunk?

During this period, Chen Yuan called Mo Donghe, and after hesitating for a while, he agreed.

Chen Yuan had just become a Sky Surveyor and didn't want to refuse him.

......

......

Three days had passed since Chen Yuan became a Sky Surveyor. During these three days, the Sky Survey Division had been very calm, but there were many speculations about him outside.

His name also began to spread in Nanling Prefecture City for the first time.

Of course, it only caused some waves. There were not many Core Forging Realm experts in Nanling Prefecture, but there were definitely not few. For example, in the counties below, each county commander was a Core Forging Realm expert.

Adding up the five major forces of Nanling Prefecture and the numerous forces of all sizes, there were at least dozens of Core Forging martial artists. Chen Yuan was able to attract attention because

The first was because of his identity as a Sky Surveyor, and the second was because of his close relationship with Zhang Xuan.

Taking over all of Zhang Xuan's team could not help but make people imagine.

Inside the Sky Survey Division's council hall.

Sky Surveyor Tao Qingyuan stood with his hands behind his back, looking quietly into the distance, as if waiting for someone to arrive. Before long, a figure quickly brought up a faint afterimage,

Arriving inside the hall.

It was Zhang Xuan.

"You're here?" Tao Qingyuan smiled faintly.

"Yeah."

"When are you leaving?"

Zhang Xuan had handed over all his responsibilities to Chen Yuan, so it was almost time for him to leave. That was why Tao Qingyuan was waiting here.

He had calculated the time accurately.

He seemed to be living in seclusion in the Sky Survey Division, but he had many eyes and ears.

He had been the Nanling Prefecture Sky Surveyor for more than ten years, and he was not so simple.

"Today, I guess..."

Zhang Xuan smiled with his hands behind his back.

After resigning, there was no distinction between superiors and subordinates between him and Tao Qingyuan, and he could be more casual.

"Alright."

"After returning, I will report to my father and transfer you to the capital to take up a leisurely position, so that you can slowly recover from your injuries..." Zhang Xuan suddenly said.

"Then thank you..."

Tao Qingyuan smiled. He was tolerant of Zhang Xuan, not only because of his talent and strength, but also because he had something to ask of his father. His injuries could not be healed in a short time.

He even needed extremely precious spiritual objects of heaven and earth, which he could not obtain.

Only Zhang Xuan's father, the strong man standing at the top of the Sky Survey Division, had this ability. Of course, what he needed to offer was loyalty, and from then on, he joined the Zhang family faction.

And this was something that many people wanted but could not get.

"There's nothing to thank. Tao Qingyuan, you have taken good care of me, and your own strength is extraordinary. It's not difficult to transfer to the capital. What's difficult is that no one speaks for you."

"That's right..."

The imperial court valued qualifications and background. Without these, it would be difficult to climb up unless you had extraordinary talent and strength.

This was still within the Sky Survey Division. If it was in the officialdom, it would be even more difficult...

Many county magistrates and prefects could not take up positions in the capital for the rest of their lives.

"I'm afraid I won't be leaving for a short time this time. Perhaps there will be other things that will delay me. Please help me take care of Chen Yuan..."

Zhang Xuan whispered.

"Does this Chen Yuan also have some background? Why are you taking care of him so much?"

Tao Qingyuan was a little confused. Zhang Xuan seemed to be a little too good to this Chen Yuan.

Not only did he help him to the top, but he also gave him his team intact. Now that he thought about it, it seemed that what Nie Qiyun said was not unreasonable.

Chen Yuan was able to make that contribution, and Zhang Xuan might have helped him behind the scenes.

Zhang Xuan: "Tao Qingyuan, you are simply thinking too much. Chen Yuan's background is clearly stated on the dossier. What background can he have? The reason why I asked you to take care of him is because he may be implicated because of me."

"You mean..."

"I have been in Nanling Prefecture for a long time, and I have made a lot of enemies. Some people may have guessed that I have a background, and some people are afraid of my strength and have been enduring it.

When I am here, it is easy to say. Once I leave, Chen Yuan will definitely be retaliated against by some people who have grudges against me."

"The reason why I let him become a Sky Surveyor first is that I don't want anyone to obstruct him..."

As Zhang Xuan spoke, he glanced at Tao Qingyuan, making him a little embarrassed.

"Of course, there is another reason. Chen Yuan's character suits my taste, and his own talent and strength are also rare. It is only a matter of time before he makes it to the Potential Dragon List."

"My father often taught me that we should be sincere when making friends. I can't help him much, but I will try my best to help him. If he achieves something in the future, he will repay me tenfold or a hundredfold..."

"If he doesn't become talented and dies halfway... then I won't lose much."

Tao Qingyuan sighed:

"I have long heard that Lord Zhang has a sharp eye and has promoted several strong men with one hand. I wonder if Zhang Xuan, you have such an eye. I will help this Chen Yuan as much as I can.

But if I want to take action because of him, I need to see if he can arouse my interest."

"As for Nie Qiyun's bullying, sometimes, it is a good thing for young people to experience more."

He was not Zhang Xuan's subordinate. He would do what he said. At least, Chen Yuan's potential had to attract his attention before he would help.

"I have said everything I need to say, Lord Tao, I will take my leave!"

"Alright."

......

......

Inside the mansion where Chen Yuan lived in the east of the city.

Chen Yuan and Zhang Xuan sat opposite each other, with two cups of clear tea on the table, steaming in the gentle breeze.

"Leaving today?"

Chen Yuan asked, raising an eyebrow.

"There's nothing to delay. It's better to leave sooner."

Zhang Xuan nodded.

"I wish you a smooth journey, sir."

"Yeah, I came here this time, first, to let you know that my departure will not alarm anyone. You can tell Yue Shan and the others."

"Second, to tell you that after I leave, some people may implicate you because of me. You must be careful. The Sky Survey Division seems to have a great reputation,

But there are still many people who dare to kill."

"As long as things are handled cleanly, no one will find evidence, and Tao Qingyuan will not retaliate in a big way because of your death."

"In recent years, there have been quite a few Sky Surveyors who have died..."

Zhang Xuan warned with a very serious expression.

"Don't worry, sir, I understand."

"Yeah... If anyone bullies others by virtue of their power, there is no need to back down. I have already greeted Tao Qingyuan, and he will help you as much as possible."

"Of course, even if I don't say hello, you are his subordinate, and he will protect you. Otherwise, no one will work for him in the future."

Zhang Xuan chuckled.

"Putting hope on others is not a very good choice."

Chen Yuan picked up the tea and took a sip.

"Hehe, you're right. Martial artists cultivate themselves!"

"Accumulate merit points, the Qi Refining level is just a transition. The real strength of a Core Forging martial artist increases greatly, but you still need to condense the Fiend Qi. If you have accumulated enough merit points,

It is best to condense the Fiend Qi in a top-grade Fiend Qi land."

"The better the Fiend Qi, the faster the speed of condensing Gang Qi..."

Chen Yuan nodded, learning another point of knowledge.

"Will the lord return to Nanling Prefecture to take office after breaking through the Profound realm?" Chen Yuan asked.

He had asked this question before, but Zhang Xuan glossed over it, saying that it was arranged by his superiors.

But Chen Yuan felt that with Zhang Xuan's background, it should not be difficult to decide these things.

Sure enough, Zhang Xuan was silent for a while and said:

"If there are no accidents, when I return, the position of Nanling Green Envoy will be mine."

"If you want to be promoted quickly, it is most appropriate to take office in one place..."

"Then I will wait for the lord to return and make great achievements." Chen Yuan curled the corner of his mouth.

If there was a superior who supported him, Chen Yuan's power in Nanling Prefecture would be even greater.

After that, the two chatted about some situations, and Zhang Xuan revealed some of the situations in the Jianghu, which added to Chen Yuan's experience.

Many of the things Zhang Xuan said were not recorded in the Sky Survey Division's files.

Before long, Zhang Xuan said goodbye and secretly left Nanling Prefecture City alone. No one knew except Chen Yuan and Tao Qingyuan.

......

......

In this way, another nearly ten days passed. Chen Yuan diligently cultivated every day, refining all five Xuanling Pills, and his cultivation improved further.

The Tai Xuan Sutra was indeed as he had expected. As long as he cultivated wholeheartedly, it was equivalent to twice the cultivation speed. Even when he was sleeping and resting, his body would slowly absorb the wandering Heaven and Earth vitality.

The vitality vortex in the dantian was gradually getting bigger.

And the vitality that was absorbed into the body was also gradually washing away Chen Yuan's internal organs.

On this day,

Chen Yuan, who was cultivating, was interrupted. Green Envoy Tao Qingyuan suddenly summoned him to the council hall. He knew that if there were no accidents, his mission should be coming...
