Chapter 484: The Grand Commander's Soft Heart (Combined)
Chapter 484: The Grand Commander’s Soft Heart (Combined)
Now...
Dong Yun Yu’s father, Dong Menzhi, anxiously watched his son's door, fearing that the brat would put on his medal and go out again, causing him nothing but distress.
Son, it’s fine if you want to be a scoundrel, but once you leave, I’ll be the one to suffer...
Finally, the door creaked open.
Dong Yun Yu emerged, dressed neatly and spotless.
Refined and impeccable.
Dong Menzhi nearly fainted.
He’s out, he’s out... My heavens...
“Father, you’re standing here again. I was just about to go out for a stroll...” Dong Yun Yu said.
“Son... Ancestor... Don’t stroll anymore...”
Dong Menzhi pleaded, then suddenly paused: “Hey, is that a commission?”
“Yeah.”
Dong Yun Yu stood tall and proud, his hands behind his back, and said calmly, “From today on, I will be a high-ranking inspector at the Southeast Guardian Headquarters.”
“T-That’s... That’s wonderful!”
Dong Menzhi’s voice changed pitch!
“You’re... going to wear this... for a stroll?”
“Sure.”
Dong Menzhi quickly moved aside, personally opening the door for his son: “Go on, go quickly, everyone is waiting for you...”
Dong Yun Yu laughed, “Let them envy me. Who else could become an inspector at the Southeast Headquarters at such a young age but your son?”
“You’re right, go quickly!”
Dong Yun Yu stepped out onto the street.
At first, everyone avoided him, but then they all saw clearly.
Oh.
A commission!
Southeast Headquarters Inspector.
My heavens, what a great piece of news... This scoundrel is finally leaving to go to work.
The news spread like the wind throughout the entire Dong family.
Suddenly, the streets were filled with people.
Everyone came out, cheering and smiling, blessing Dong Yun Yu, praising him as a young prodigy and a pillar of the family... Now that he has a job, he should leave quickly and not stay at home, focusing on his career...
Dong Yun Yu smiled.
Then, when the crowd was at its largest, he stood on the highest point, stood tall and proud with his hands behind his back, facing the sunlight, and took out the commission from his chest.
Revealing the radiant medal on his chest. Ahem!
The Dong family members: “......”
Damn it!
The Dong family collectively collapsed.
Especially when they learned that Dong Yun Yu still had a whole month before he had to report to the Southeast Guardian Headquarters, the Dong family was even more devastated!
“How can it be so long!”
During this time, the young people of the Dong family were all extremely frustrated.
“With his despicable nature, Dong Yun Yu actually managed to earn such glory!”
“Really...”
But the elders of each household shouted angrily: “If Dong Yun Yu, that scoundrel, can earn glory and bring honor to the family, what about you, who think yourselves gentlemen?”
“He’s despicable and not liked, but he did something right!”
“What about you!”
“Instead of complaining, you should hurry up and practice, and earn merit!”
“In the next few years, when Dong Yun Yu comes to show off, our family should also have someone wearing a medal, blocking him at the door!”
“So we don’t have to bow to him!”
The young and middle-aged members of the Dong family were all fired up.
They left home one after another, embarking on the path of merit.
Meanwhile, the Dong family members already in the Guardian Hall and Guardian ranks all received news from home.
“Step up your game! Work hard!”
“The glory of the Dong family can’t rely on just one Dong Yun Yu! Otherwise, what is the meaning of the Dong family’s thousands of years of traditions and rules?!”
“If Dong Yun Yu can strive, what are you lacking?”
“......”
The Dong family experienced a catalytic effect.
One Dong Yun Yu suddenly ignited the passion of the entire Dong family, making everyone feel ashamed!
When did the family’s glory need to rely on a rogue?
At the same time.
Guardian Headquarters.
The Dong family’s Elder Ancestor had already arrived.
“Is Lord Snow here?”
“Lord Snow just returned, he should be here.”
At that moment, Xue Fuxiao had just returned and coincidentally, Dongfang Sansan had also come back, calling Xue Fuxiao over to scold him!
Xue Fuxiao was stunned by the scolding.
You called me back in such a hurry just to scold me?
But he had no temper to argue.
Because the news was indeed leaked by him.
Ningxue Jian still hadn’t given up, clinging to Dongfang Sansan: “Brother Nine, let me see the uncut version.”
“There isn’t one; only the abridged version, a few thousand words, which I expanded.”
“That’s not right. Snow Brother said there was a lot, and you simplified it.”
“Do you believe him?”
“Yes!”
“So you’ve been tricked... Get lost!”
Dongfang Sansan, tired of the harassment, now that the culprit Xue Fuxiao had returned, couldn’t help but call him over for a thorough scolding.
While scolding him.
Someone reported: “Dong Yiming, the Dong family’s Elder Ancestor, requests to see Lord Snow.”
Dongfang Sansan’s eyes twinkled, “Lord Snow is here. Have Dong Yiming come directly to my room.”
Dong Yiming arrived.
Seeing Dongfang Sansan and Xue Fuxiao, Dong Yiming was very respectful and cautious.
But after a few words, under Dongfang Sansan’s skillful soothing, Dong Yiming relaxed.
Dong Yimin began to complain, "Snow Lord, you've really put our Dong Clan in a difficult situation..."
Xue Fu Xiao was taken aback, confused by his words, "What did I do?"
"You rewarded Dong Yun Yu, which is commendable, but... why did you have to give him a medal? This medal... sigh, it's hard to explain."
"You'll never understand. Giving this Continental Hero Medal to such a despicable person will have severe consequences..."
"It's so tragic, so tragic... our Dong Clan is suffering greatly..."
Once Dong Yimin started, he couldn't stop.
His face showed a sense of victimization, and he spoke endlessly.
Xue Fu Xiao was completely stunned.
As he listened, he felt as if he had done something that angered both heaven and earth.
Turning his head, he saw Dongfang Sansan sitting in a chair, looking at him sympathetically.
He couldn't hold it in any longer and exploded.
No wonder you kept bringing up this matter as if it were your own... Now I understand! But that medal was added by you, Dongfang Sansan.
I, Xue Fu Xiao, only agreed to the banner, but you... now you're enjoying the show?
"Snow Lord... our Dong Clan is in a predicament now. Let me tell you about this situation. Wherever Dong Yun Yu goes, people generally flee. The critical issue is that he can directly barge into the family's meeting hall with that medal... This, this, this..."
"It's said that Dong Yun Yu has started visiting each household with the medal, holding a few pastries and rushing into people's homes with the medal on display..."
Xue Fu Xiao wanted to say something, but Dongfang Sansan's stern warning gaze landed on his face.
He realized he had just made a mistake.
If he were to expose Sansan now, he feared his situation would become even worse.
But clearly, this was a matter involving two people, yet only he was taking the blame, while the other was enjoying his misfortune.
Xue Fu Xiao became depressed.
He was purely framed, but facing Dong Yimin's endless complaints and grievances, Xue Fu Xiao could only endure it with a sullen face.
After all, this was indeed his doing...
Dong Yimin ranted for nearly half an hour.
Finally, he stopped to drink some tea.
Dongfang Sansan smiled, "Yimin, you came here with a big request. Now that you've finished complaining, what is it that you want? Snow Lord has endured your complaints, so just state your request directly."
Dong Yimin sighed, "It's true that Snow Lord has put our family in a difficult situation... Sigh, let's not talk about it anymore. Since our family is in this state, we should at least gain some glory and honor..."
His face twisted in embarrassment, "We can't let this despicable person's achievements overshadow our entire family. What will become of our family's reputation in the future..."
Dongfang Sansan sympathized, "Yes, Old Snow handled this matter without much consideration. Don't worry, I'll take care of it. Recently, there have been many battles across the land, and your family's children are the backbone. It's a good opportunity for them to gain some experience."
"Thank you, Uncle Nine."
"But during the training... Yimin, there might be sacrifices. Your family should be prepared for that."
"Uncle Nine, rest assured. For the continent and our family, our Dong Clan can bear any losses."
"Excellent!"
After comforting him, Dongfang Sansan provided several specific policy measures and then managed to send Dong Yimin away.
As Dong Yimin left, he sighed, looking at Xue Fu Xiao, "Snow Lord... this... sigh... Farewell..."
Finally, Dong Yimin departed.
Xue Fu Xiao's anger was about to burst.
He stood up abruptly, ready to confront Dongfang Sansan.
Dongfang Sansan hummed, "Just tell me about the matter with Rui Qian. He insists on seeing the original manuscript, but can we always provide it? You've caused this trouble, and now Rui Qian won't let it go. He's like a pest to me... This is a matter concerning the entire continent and its education for thousands of years! What are you trying to do, Xue Fu Xiao?"
"It's not easy to have the 'Jun Lin' autobiography, and all the young martial artists on the continent have their idol. Yet, on the first day, you want to destroy this role model?"
Xue Fu Xiao felt his anger suddenly turn into guilt.
"I just..."
"Just what? Just want to destroy Jun Lin?"
"How could I possibly destroy..."
"So, you went around talking about it?"
"I didn't go around talking..."
"What's the difference between telling that despicable person and going around talking? Why can't you change this bad habit of yours? Can't you keep a secret? And that time two thousand years ago, it was because of you... and the last time..."
Dongfang Sansan's face showed frustration, "When will you ever let me worry less..."
Xue Fu Xiao was at a loss for words, "I... I'm sorry."
"Go, go."
Dongfang Sansan sighed, "You need to quickly resolve the Dong Clan's issue. Why are you standing there in a daze? At least do something for me!"
"Okay, okay, I'll go and make arrangements."
Xue Fu Xiao agreed hastily and left to work.
After finishing his task, Fang Che suddenly realized something: "Hmm... something feels off..."
He hurriedly went to find Dongfang Sansan: "Sansan, something's not right about what just happened..."
Dongfang Sansan was speechless: "I thought this matter was resolved. Why are you acting like a woman, constantly bringing up old issues?"
It was absolutely unacceptable to act like a woman.
Xue Fumiao, feeling awkward, said, "I came to tell you that the task is completed."
"That's great. Now get out, I'm busy. Oh, and by the way, go teach Ruishan a lesson while you're at it."
"Okay, then you take care of it."
Xue Fumiao scratched his head and left.
Fang Che still looked perplexed: "Damn, something still feels off..."
...
Fang Che woke up.
It was undeniable that Dongfang Sansan's seven cups of tea had an incredible effect on Fang Che, enhancing all his six senses and causing his spiritual power to surge within him.
When he opened his eyes upon waking, he couldn't control himself, and a 'pfft' sound escaped his mouth.
Pure spiritual energy gushed out from all ten of his orifices.
The Emperor Rank barrier suddenly shattered, and his spiritual energy began to erupt from his body. As he opened his mouth, a misty breath escaped, carrying a faint scent of tea.
As soon as Ye Meng entered the room, he was pushed back by the powerful energy.
The spiritual energy in the heavens and earth rushed into Fang Che's body.
Fang Che became a vortex, continuously devouring the spiritual energy of the world...
"I've broken through..."
After a long while, Fang Che stood up, his body trembling. Countless flakes of skin fell from his body.
He shook himself, and from within his pants, a swishing sound was heard as a clump of powdery substance fell out.
"I've become an Emperor Rank too!"
Fang Che was very pleased with himself.
He went to the bathroom to bathe.
Ye Meng, pinching his nose, entered the room to straighten the bedsheets and take the clothes outside.
After shaking the clothes, a large amount of skin flakes fell into a flowerpot containing a Red Jade Flower.
Fang Che, feeling refreshed, walked out of the room. He began to adapt to his increased cultivation in the courtyard by practicing with his sword.
"Are you alright?" Ye Meng asked with concern.
"I'm fine," Fang Che replied, his tone light. "It's not the first time, and I've recovered. It's not a big deal, it's a good challenge for me, and I'm quite satisfied with it."
Ye Meng pouted.
The arrogance in his words was almost palpable.
So Ye Meng ignored him and continued tidying up the room.
"Song Dian, you're about to take up the position in the Southeast. Should we sell this house?"
"Why should we sell it?"
Fang Che grabbed a handful of money and said, "We're not short on cash. We can buy a new one when we get there. This house is staying put, we're not selling it. In the future, this will all be our family's assets!"
"That's fine too."
"Pack up some things, but don't pack too much. Just bring the essentials, and we can buy whatever we need when we get there. We should keep this place in a state where we can return and stay anytime."
"Okay..."
Ye Meng sighed.
Such a large house was now going to be left unused. What a waste.
But Fang Che, now filthy rich, didn't care about that at all.
Now free from official duties, he could focus on his martial arts training.
In his own courtyard, he worked up a sweat, feeling the sudden surge in his cultivation.
Only then did he finally stop, but it was already evening.
After dinner, Fang Che went into his study.
He took out the spatial ring and couldn't contain his excitement.
"This is a good thing."
He hurriedly cut his finger and carefully smeared his blood on it three times, then began to communicate with his divine sense, refining it for his own use.
This process wasn't complicated, and it was effortless.
In less than a quarter of an hour, he had completed the refinement, and he specifically found some silk from a divine silkworm to make a rope. He tested it by hanging several thousand pounds without any effort, confirming its safety. Then he hung the spatial ring around his neck, placing it inside his protective treasure garment.
He thought, what if I get punched? So he moved it down a bit, but it didn't seem safe in my pants either...
After much consideration, he decided to keep it on his chest for now.
"Store!"
The teacup disappeared, entering the spatial ring.
"Come out!"
The teacup reappeared.
"Hahaha, this is so fun..."
Fang Che couldn't stop laughing.
Then, without wasting any time, he stored all his cultivation resources in the spatial ring, finally feeling at ease!
As for the divine metal, he stored it as well, deciding to refine it further for a few days before beginning blood refinement.
But this matter, he decided, could wait.
The current work at hand was indeed not little.
In the middle of the night, Fang Che once again transformed into the Starlight Commander, the General Escort Agency's Yin Xiu, the Grand Commander.
During this month, he would constantly appear as the Grand Commander.
He was preparing for his transfer.
Then, at the Guardian Hall, he would also frequently appear, making a show of handing over his work.
"I truly am a man of many talents."
First and foremost, he sent a message to the Seal Deity Palace:
"Master, your disciple has awakened. I thought this time was very serious, but it turned out to be like this. It was very easy, and I only fell unconscious for two days before waking up. Moreover, when my divine sense recovered, due to the extreme pressure, I unexpectedly broke through to the Emperor Rank!"
"Master, I too have become an Emperor Rank."
In the White Cloud Continent, I feel that besides a few individuals, I can walk with my head held high.
The Yinshen Palace was both amused and exasperated, but he also felt relieved. "Look at you, now that you're awake, it's time to focus on your Heavenly Escort Agency. You don't have much time left."
"I know, I'm just waiting for the people Master sent. If they don't arrive soon, it'll be too late."
"They've already set off. Qian Sanjiang is leading the team. They should reach the White Cloud Continent by tonight."
"That's good."
"Quickly handle the aftermath here, arrange for a successor, and then leave as soon as possible."
"Master, I'm a bit upset. Isn't the Heavenly Escort Agency part of our Only Righteous Sect? Why is the headquarters directly appointing someone now? Isn't this taking credit for our work?"
"Put your mind at ease. Many subordinate sects would love to have the headquarters take the credit."
"Alright then."
"Get lost, and make sure your cultivation and combat strength don't fall behind."
"Master, I..."
"Scram!"
Fang Che left.
"Not even letting me finish my sentence, truly rude. No wonder you're the demon of the Only Righteous Sect."
That night, Qian Sanjiang indeed arrived with a thousand men at the Heavenly Escort Agency.
Seeing this thousand-strong force, Fang Che was overwhelmed by their intimidating appearances, each with a face full of stubborn flesh.
"Third Master, can you stay here for a few more days? It'll be a good opportunity to observe how I discipline these fellows."
"I'm not interested."
Qian Sanjiang was in a hurry, "The headquarters is making moves to absorb the Night Demon Sect and the Heaven God Sect, and everyone is extremely busy. I won't be able to return to headquarters from here; instead, I'll be heading directly into the mountains. I don't have time to waste here with you."
Qian Sanjiang handed Fang Che several secret manuals, "These are the bottom-line techniques of me and your Wood Master. Take a look. If you're interested, practice them; if not, forget about it."
"Okay, then you should rest and have some water..."
"Forget it. With your Starlight face... I feel like I've lost out on life just by looking at you once more..."
With those final words, Qian Sanjiang turned into a shadow in the night and disappeared.
"This face... it's not even my doing..."
Fang Che touched his face and muttered to himself before returning to the escort agency.
As he turned, his gentle expression transformed into a ferocious one.
"Hang up the sign! Heavenly Escort Agency is closed for business for the next seven days and will not accept any new assignments."
"Yes, sir!"
"Everyone, gather before me at once!"
A roar echoed through the agency.
The entire Heavenly Escort Agency trembled with the force of a tiger's roar.
All the veteran employees immediately rushed out and formed neat lines.
However, the new recruits from the Only Righteous Sect were still adjusting to the pace and created a chaotic scene, not knowing what to do.
Zhao Wushang bellowed, "Why are you all standing there? Line up! Quick, quick!"
The Starlight Commander began counting.
"Ten, nine, eight, seven... three, two, one! Halt! No one is allowed to move!"
Another roar reverberated.
Everyone froze in place as if struck by a paralyzing spell.
A torrent of malevolent aura suddenly engulfed the entire agency.
Under this aura's baptism, everyone fell silent, not daring to move a muscle.
They all had the same feeling: One wrong move meant death!
"Zhao Wushang!"
"Present!"
"Come out and report to the Grand Commander according to the rules!"
"Yes, sir!"
"Reporting to the Grand Commander, the Heavenly Escort Agency currently has a total of 1,348 personnel. Within the specified time, 1,118 personnel formed proper lines, while 230 personnel failed to join the formation!"
"According to the rules, bind these 230 people!"
"But we didn't know about this rule."
"But now you do. Bind them!"
"Grand Commander, we object!"
"Are you objecting, or are they?" The Starlight Commander's eyes instantly turned wolf-like.
They glinted with a faint light in the darkness.
"I object!"
A man with bushy sideburns stepped forward, his eyes filled with defiance.
"I object too!"
Another person joined him.
"Me as well!"
"I also..."
Within a short time, forty-five people stepped forward.
Although the rest didn't join them, their eyes gleamed with mockery.
Zhao Wushang and Zheng Yunqi's faces contorted, and they lowered their heads.
The Starlight Commander's wolf-like eyes scanned the forty-five dissenters, "Are there any others who object? If so, step forward. Our Grand Commander has always been kind and soft-hearted."
