Chapter 207.
This Buddha bead was the root of the secret method, and it was also Zhiyuan’s greatest defense.
The Empty Dust Monastery had a terrifying secret method, which was to raise the Buddha bead.
The first thing that every disciple who entered the Empty Dust Temple had to do was to constantly raise the Buddha bead with the Dharma from the first day.
With the gradual refinement of the Dharma, the Buddha bead would also rise and become more and more powerful.
In times of crisis, the disciple can stimulate the power of the Buddha beads to fight.
Just think about it, the Buddha beads that have been raised from childhood to adulthood, when inspired, that kind of terrifying strength, will make people tremble.
In fact it was true, after Zhiyuan had inspired this Buddha bead, although his strength was still in the innate realm, it was enough to decapitate a normal Tongling realm.
But the price was high, that is, the Buddha bead that was previously raised would be used up in an instant.
The Buddha beads could still be used, but the follow up would need to be raised again with the Buddha Dharma.
Therefore, it was almost a one-time occurrence.
If it wasn’t for Monk Empty Wink allowing him to use it, Zhiyuan wouldn’t have used it at all.
This was the bottom card.
But now, not only was this bottom card useless to Zhou An, but in this instant, it had all shattered.
The Buddha beads that had been raised since childhood, not to mention anything else, under the blessing of the Buddha Dharma, the sturdiness naturally did not need to be mentioned.
Even if one was in the Realm of Tongling, they would not necessarily be able to destroy them.
But now with just a single slash from Zhou An, this slash hadn’t even cut down yet, and the Buddha bead was completely gone.
“This …… this is impossible!” Zhiyuan’s heart was shaken and he subconsciously shouted out.
He could now feel a wave of despair.
The place of despair came from the knife in Zhou An’s hand.
This knife, it hadn’t fallen yet.
At this moment, not only Zhi Yuan, but the Celestial Pride below the stands had the same shocked expression.
Even underneath the stands, even with the protection of the formation, at this moment, the terrifyingly oppressive aura, as well as the danger between life and death, made the heavenly prides present find it difficult to breathe.
They had never thought that there would be such a terrifying person.
“How the hell did he …… cultivate?”
“It’s too terrifying, I feel like, I’m going crazy with repression right now!”
“He’s only in his twenties! This kind of strength, is he really in the younger generation?”
The group of Great Yue Country’s prides who had started clamoring were sweating profusely at the moment.
Zhou An didn’t seem to have any intention of letting go at all.
His blade didn’t fall, but instead, he looked around in a circle.
All of the Great Yue Country’s Celestial Pride that he saw were all silent at this moment.
Zhou An narrowed his eyes and spoke slowly, like he was recounting a trivial matter of no consequence.
“Zhiyuan, are you ready?”
When these words left his mouth, Zhiyuan, who was still in shock, finally reacted.
He subconsciously asked, “Ready for what?”
Zhou An laughed in a cloudy manner, “Receive my blade.”
As the words fell, the long blade fell with it.
The moment the long blade fell, above the sky, the huge Holy Spirit Demon Body repeated Zhou An’s actions.
The knife …… fell.
Two knives, two different kinds of might.
This time, there was no ebony-blue colored blade light that covered the sky, it was merely a single blade.
This knife, like a mountain, was unstoppable.
Zhiyuan raised both of his palms under the crisis of life and death.
He knew that he had already lost, but at this moment, everything was done by instinct.
Above both palms, a Buddhist light emerged.
But this Buddha light fell on the sword light and crumbled in a split second.
It was like ice meeting fire, fragile beyond words.
Ka-ching!
There seemed to be the sound of an eggshell breaking.
The Buddha light in Zhiyuan’s hand was completely annihilated.
The aftermath began to reverberate.
This martial arts arena made by a great person of the Tongling realm’s formations unexpectedly began to chafe in this instant.
Cracks appeared on the ground and the grand formation shook.
Tangible cracks suddenly appeared in the intangible grand formation.
Zhiyuan felt a surge of pain in his hands.
When he looked down, they were already a bloody mess.
“Dying!” This thought suddenly popped up in Zhiyuan’s mind.
This was simply not something that the younger generation could resist.
Just then, a voice rang out.
“The killing nature is too much, it’s excessive!”
Monk Empty Wink, who was on the stage, suddenly moved.
He flicked out a Buddha light that enveloped Zhiyuan.
The blade light that chopped at the Buddha light dissipated in an instant.
Zhiyuan sat paralyzed on the ground, at this time covered in sweat, his face extremely pale.
Between life and death, he had traveled a cycle, as if countless years had passed.
This martial arts arena, had been completely destroyed.
The formation that that group of Celestial Pride could not break, in front of Zhou An, it was just a wave of the hand that could be broken.
Zhou An turned his gaze, not even bothering to look at Zhiyuan for a second, but instead looked at Monk Empty Wen and sneered, “There is no way to stop a match, what, does Master Empty Wen want to go down personally?”
Monk Empty Wins was filled with anger: “Zhou An, you strike too much without knowing the measure, if I didn’t strike with this blade, Zhi Yuan would only have been left with no bones left.”
He thought he was in the right.
However, before the words were finished, Zhou An spoke again.
“Huh.”
“I didn’t have the heart to compete in the first place, yet you’re stirring up right and wrong.”
“The one who wants to compete is you, the one who is afraid of death is also you, what, everything is taken up by you, do you want to go to heaven?”
When these words came out, the whole room was silent.
Monk Empty Wink could be considered a top-notch existence among the older generation.
Even if it could only be considered the weakest of the top-notch, it was still top-notch.
The senior brother of the Abbot of the Empty Dust Temple, this identity was enough.
But right now, Zhou An did not give Monk Empty Dust a bit of face.
Beside him, Daoist Xuanxin of the Great Yue Country spoke up and rounded off the conversation.
“Lord Zhou, you’ve already won, so why be aggressive?”
Zhou An laughed coldly, “If I ended it hastily every time, wouldn’t the Jianghu think that I, Zhou An, am a bully?”
Monk Empty Wen gasped, “Then what do you want?”
Zhou An faintly said, “Back then, when the Great Chu Kingdom’s Heavenly Pride challenged me, the result was that everyone knelt down and admitted their faults, and now, when you come to make trouble, it’s the same, otherwise if word gets out, won’t it be said that I, Zhou An, am not being fair?”
Monk Empyrean froze, Daoist Xuanxin froze, and even the King of the Far West was confused.
They did not expect that Zhou An would be so rigid.
In fact, Zhou An was right in his words.
Since you are in the ring, the competition of people in the lineage is naturally life and death.
You can’t just tie your hands for fear of death, so what’s the need for a competition?
As a result, Monk Empty Wen stepped in and kind of broke the rules.
There is no fault here.
Monk Empty Wink was out of his mind with anger at this point, saying, “Zhou An, don’t bully people too much!”
“Fine, fine!” Zhou An looked around in a circle, “Relying on your age, Old Biden, it’s really nothing more than that.”
Monk Empty Wen’s face was gloomy and did not answer.
“If you do not kneel today, in another day, I, Zhou An, shall personally go to the Empty Dust Temple.” Zhou An said indifferently.
Monk Empty Wins couldn’t help but laugh, “Zhou An, do you really think that being invincible amongst the younger generation makes you arrogant amongst the older generation?”
Zhou An was about to reply.
But right at this moment, Eunuch Wei, who had been standing next to Emperor Xingwu, moved.
The speed was extremely fast, making people unable to react.
Under a body full of Yin Qi, when Eunuch Wei’s figure reappeared, he was already carrying Monk Empty Wen’s neck.
Monk Empty Wink was filled with horror: “Old thief Wei, in public, what do you want to do!”
Next to him, Daoist Xuanxin stood up.
But before he could react, the State Master sitting in his seat took out a piece of talisman paper.
The talisman paper was ordinary, but it made Daoist Xuanxin extremely fearful.
Between the two sides, there seemed to be a stalemate.
The King of the Far West witnessed everything and sighed, “Your Majesty, why do you have to be like this, we are neighboring countries no matter what.”
He truly did not expect that Monk Empyrean would pull such a stunt.
To be honest, both he and Daoist Xuanxin, were not used to seeing Monk Empty Wisdom.
But no matter what, Monk Empty Wins came together, if something happened, there was no way to deliver.
Emperor Xingwu faintly said, “Emotionally and rationally, Empty Wen did not do the right thing, King of the Far West, have you forgotten the things we did when we were young?”
“When we were young, which one of us didn’t walk out in blood and fire, every match was both a division of highs and lows as well as life and death, protectors, we don’t have any.”
“If every match, there is someone here to protect, then what’s the point?”
“The most incorrect point that Airwing did was to go down to the arena himself.”
The Far West King lapsed into silence.
He gave Daoist Xuanxin a wink.
Daoist Xuanxin immediately sat down.
The Far West King was well aware of the style of the Great Chu Kingdom.
To be honest, those who were able to build a country in those times couldn’t do so without a few ruthless people.
The Great Chu Kingdom’s heritage wasn’t as high as other countries, but if they really wanted to play hard to get, they would wait to weaken their side of the country.
Sometimes, the barefoot is not afraid of the shoe wearer, this is the truth.
When Daoist Xuanxin sat down, at the same time, the State Master also put away the talisman paper.
Eunuch Wei pinched Monk Kongwen’s neck, his tone cold: “Back then, we personally went to the Empty Dust Temple, your Ten Golden Bodies, Four Great Vajra, Black and White Twin Buddhas, and that abbot blocked us, and we still got in and out of the temple.”
“You’re a little Empty Dust, you dare to bully the little ones with the big ones?”
“We have never been a double standard person, we said, similar age, even if you kill Zhou An, we do not care, that is not as skilled as others.”
“But to big bully small, is dead, but also have to pull out the people peeled skin.”
Empty Wen gritted his teeth, “Is it hard for you to dare to take a shot at me in front of everyone?”
He still had a few thoughts.
No matter what, he was an envoy of the Great Yue Country, and Eunuch Wei definitely wouldn’t dare to do anything about it.
But next, Eunuch Wei took out a piece of incense, causing Empty Wen to reveal a look of fear.
The incense burned without wind and was very thick, perfect for burning ring scars.
“If you are not willing to kneel, just suffer this humiliation in a different way, we will burn you symmetrically.” Eunuch Wei sneered.
The incense began to approach the top of Monk Empty Wen’s head.
Monk Empty Wen’s forehead began to sweat.
If he was scalded with a ring scar in front of so many people, then he didn’t need to mix anymore.
Monk Empty Wins clenched his teeth, although he was being choked by Eunuch Wei, he was still able to speak.
“Your Majesty, do you really want me to suffer this humiliation?”
The King of the Far West sighed, “Zhou An, I would like to give you a treasure to make up for this time how about it?”
Zhou An frowned, “What does Your Highness intend to use to make up for this?”
The King of the Far West took out a waist plate and threw it towards Zhou An.
Zhou An received it in his hands and carefully examined it.
He realized that the waist plate looked plain and unimpressive, but there was a Far West character engraved on it.
Before he could ask, the Far Western King gave an explanation.
“This is this king’s waist plate, in the future, if you come to the Great Yue Country, with this waist plate, you can pass through unhindered.”
This was the most practical thing he could give.
At their level, to be able to give this waist plate, I don’t know how many people would be envious.
But …… Zhou An was different.
Zhou An threw the waist plate back.
Seeing this, the King of the Far West frowned slightly, “What do you mean by this?”
“Your Highness, this thing is of no use to me.” Zhou An shook his head.
This thing was indeed useless, to be honest, the hardest thing these days was still one’s own strength.
To make a very simple analogy, let’s say this token, whether it can be used or not is a matter of people’s words.
When people say it can’t be used, it’s just broken brass.
King of the Far West asked, “Then what do you want?”
To be reasonable, Monk Empty Wen really couldn’t kneel.
If this is kneeling, where is the face of the Great Yue Kingdom.
And what Monk Empty Wisdom did was really not fair.
The competition was arranged by you, and the interference was also done by you, how can you have both sides?
So the King of the Far West also intended to engage in a compromise.
Zhou An laughed, “For something like a shekel, I don’t think one is quite enough.”
As the words fell, Monk Empty Wen, who was being held by the neck, froze.
What do you mean one is not quite enough?
Is this thing rice, can you get it out anytime?
The way this was said, it was simply outrageous.
Eunuch Wei narrowed his eyes, “We also feel that one is not quite enough.”
When these words came out, Monk Empty Wen almost didn’t spit out a mouthful of blood.
These two guys, are they carved out of the same mold?
How come they are both so shameless?
“Two huh, good!”
Although he felt that these two people were shameless, Monk Empty Wen still agreed.
There was no way out if he didn’t agree.
This belonged to the category of having a knife on your neck.
Eunuch Wei let go of his hand.
Monk Empty Wins landed on the ground and looked at Eunuch Wei with a face full of grudges, then took out two sherds from his arms.
This was indeed a treasure, but Monk Empty Wen still had it.
Zhou An’s eyes glowed when he saw the two sherds.
This thing was of little use to him, but it should be useful to Black Jade.
Just now, Black Jade had directly asked him for it.
Zhou An felt that it would be good to get one more in case it could work wonders.
The Sherry Son was thrown over by Monk Kongwen.
Zhou An received it in his hands and did not even look at Zhiyuan as he went straight down to the ring.
Coming and going quickly.
But the Zhou An at this moment, in the hearts of the crowd, had already left a deep impression.
Not to mention anything else, it was that astonishing blade that all the heavenly pride present had to die.
Zhiyuan had a bitter face.
There was a saying that described it well, how arrogant you were in the beginning, how difficult it was at this moment.
When he thought of the harsh words he had let out earlier, he now hated to find a crack in the ground.
Monk Empty Wink also returned to his seat, but at this moment, his mood was like eating rat droppings.
Only Eunuch Wei had some regrets.
His regret lay in the fact that he hadn’t been able to take this incense and pestle it on Monk Empty Wisdom’s head.
This match, from the anticipation and then Zhou An’s hanging, ended very quickly.
After it ended, the crowd naturally did not continue to stay here for long.
At noon, there was a new banquet, but it was still early.
Emperor Xingwu had gone back, and it was not at all interesting for the crowd to stay here.
Zhou An also planned to go back to liver proficiency, so naturally, he led Black Jade away.
On the way back, the journey was uneventful.
When he took Black Jade and returned to his residence, he couldn’t wait to close the door.
The black jade was full of confusion and very dull.
But Zhou An was clear that some times the Black Jade was witty as hell.
Only when the door to the room was closed did Zhou An then take out the two Sherri Sons from the pink money bag.
The Sherri Sons carried a hazy light that was unusually soft in the room.
Zhou An waved the Sherri Sons in front of Black Jade and asked, “What do you want this for?”
In fact, he still had some expectations.
After all, Black Jade’s identity was not ordinary.
This was also the first time Black Jade had taken the initiative to ask for something, and Zhou An was curious to know what would happen next.
Black Jade stretched out her small white hand and took the two shekels in her hands.
With a clear and foolish look, she carefully observed them.
Soon, the Sherri Sons were grasped in Black Jade’s hands, and surprisingly, they began to gradually dissolve.
The process was slow, but Zhou An was certain that this Sherri Son was the one that disappeared in Black Jade’s hands.
Next, as Zhou An waited, there was no storm at all.
Black Jade just stared blankly at Zhou An, holding Zhou An’s hand.
Zhou An asked, “It’s gone?”
Black Jade nodded, “No more.”
Zhou An: “……”
He had thought that there would be some commotion, but now it seemed as if there was nothing.
Zhou An said breathlessly, “You melted this thing, and now you’re telling me there’s nothing, isn’t that bullshit?”
The black jade tilted its head, meaning to say, “It can …… refresh your mind!”
Zhou An’s face was full of questions, “What is refreshing the mind?”
Black Jade’s little face quickly wrinkled, then walked back and forth as if organizing his language.
After a few moments, Black Jade grabbed Zhou An’s hand and placed it on her own white forehead.
“There, where it can’t be touched, it can be communicated and then …… briefly awake.”
Zhou An: “?”
He almost suspected that Black Jade was driving.
To be reasonable, Zhou An had stayed with Black Jade for such a long time, and he could understand many of Black Jade’s words.
Only this time, he couldn’t quite understand it.
“Speak in detail.” Zhou An continued.
By now, after the Black Fish had gone through the constant scrubbing of the Holy Spirit Demon Body, she was able to speak more and more languages on the premise of becoming smarter.
However, in terms of language organization, she still had some flaws.
Black Jade looked sad and seemed to be at a loss as to how to explain.
After a while, her wit got the better of her.
Black Jade closed her eyes, and immediately afterward, an eerie aura echoed in the room.
In the next moment, Zhou An suddenly realized that this bizarre aura seemed very familiar.
This was the Guile Gathering, and it was the Guile Gathering in its heyday!
Back then, when he was in the Nether Cloud Sect, Zhou An had once encountered the Guile Gathering.
But the Guile Assembly at that time was actually a much weaker version.
The Creepy Gathering at that time had come across space, hardening the original Creepy Gathering and squeezing it out.
It was also because of the weakness that it was cut in half by Zhou An.
But the current breath was different.
It was in its full fucking vigor.
Even the Wind and Rain Building Owner, who was proficient in the art of Tongtian arithmetic, was beaten by this full bloom Creepy Gathering to the point of vomiting blood.
Zhou An could feel that the air around him froze.
For the first time, he felt a crisis of life and death.
“Stop!” Zhou An raised his hand and said.
Black Jade immediately stopped and stood obediently beside Zhou An.
Only then did Zhou An breathe a sigh of relief.
He looked back and forth at Black Jade and suddenly asked, “You can make the Guile Gathering in its heyday descend?”
Black Jade nodded honestly.
Back then, when the Prime Minister struck out at Zhou An, if not for Eunuch Wei coming, Black Jade would have greeted the Guile Assembly.
She would not let Zhou An be in danger, just like Zhou An usually never let her be alone.
Black Jade didn’t know how she was able to summon it, and she could feel that she had an innate closeness to the Guile Gathering.
Of course, this closeness was no match for Zhou An.
Zhou An was unaware of Black Jade’s thoughts, or else she would definitely be laughing at this moment.
The hall was filled with great filial piety, family members.
At this moment, Zhou An thought carefully about what Black Jade had just said and suddenly had an idea.
“Are you saying that the Sherpa can keep the Trickster Gathering awake for a short period of time?”
After rationalizing, Zhou An came to this conclusion.
Black Jade nodded foolishly, indicating that Zhou An was right.
Zhou An fell into deep thought.
He didn’t know the principle either, but …… it seemed like this thing could work wonders.
Zhou An didn’t think to experiment with it.
This thing couldn’t be experimented with casually, or else his life would have to be taken in.
However, it did not prevent him from using it as a backhand.
For example, in the future, when you encounter a strong enemy that you can not win, there is really no way out, so let Black Jade call her mother out, and then use the Sherpa.
Wouldn’t that be the meaning of carrying around a top-notch fighter?
Zhou An felt that there were risks involved, but it could also be used as a last resort.
“Well well well, that’s good.” Zhou An thought.
He felt that it was worth it to take these two shekels.
Black Jade looked at Zhou An’s expression and didn’t know why Zhou An was so happy.
But at this moment, she started to skin again.
Black Jade reached out her hand and touched towards Zhou An’s head.
“Dang!”
A crisp sound rang out.
Black Jade covered her head with an aggrieved face and muttered while running to the corner to face the wall.
Zhou An withdrew his hand and didn’t care about Black Jade’s, grasping at straws and trying to liver proficiency.
As for what to liver, Zhou An’s liver is naturally Bagua Arithmetic.
In fact, he wanted to liver Butcher’s Knife, but Butcher’s Knife Technique needed to try a different way in order to increase proficiency.
Now the time is not long, Zhou An has no intention to try.
Anyway, there was still the endpoint of the air body villain that could store proficiency.
When he was free in the future, he would definitely prioritize the Butchering Knife Technique, after all, he already had 40,000 points of proficiency.
Thinking about this, Zhou An began to liver up.
The morning passed quickly.
—————–
Time gradually came to noon.
Today was the second day of the birthday banquet.
Although there were some interruptions in the morning, something like a birthday banquet could not stop there.
There was no difference between the luncheon and the dinner.
It was all a bout of eating and drinking, and in the meantime, watching the Yeji dance.
Some of the processes that were to be done today were pushed to the evening because of the change in the morning’s competition.
In the evening, there would be a reward ceremony, and there would also be Emperor Xingwu’s encouragement and goals for these people.
Due to Zhou An’s toss, the three troubles that Eunuch Wei had said were actually all gone.
Smoothly, the banquet was over.
Zhou An returned to his room as usual and began to liver proficiency.
It wasn’t until the evening that he came out.
In fact, Zhou An was still somewhat looking forward to what Emperor Xingwu would arrange for some kind of reward.
Outside the door, as usual, Zhou An was led by the eunuch towards the grand hall.
When Zhou An arrived, the main hall had already gathered quite a few people.
Seemingly sensing Zhou An’s gaze, these people all turned their eyes over.
Zhou An’s scenery was too high in the morning, and it could be said that ever since Zhou An had appeared, he had been in a state of high light.
That stunning slash that stunned the entire audience, as well as the words that followed it, lingered in the ears of the crowd at all times.
It was like a heavy hammer, leaving countless Celestial Pride breathless.
Zhou An, on the contrary, felt indifferent.
He yawned and sat down with Yu Hang and the others.
“Old Zhou, you really amazed the entire audience yesterday.” Yu Hang smiled and joked.
Only Zhou An’s few friends were able to act as if nothing had happened in front of Zhou An.
Zhou An was bored and said, “Quite boring.”
Seriously, it was still Liver Proficiency that brought the fun.
Ye Frost said coldly, “I heard the teacher say that yesterday, His Majesty seemed to have a headache, and even late into the night, he was still picking at the lamp.”
Zhou An strangely said, “Why the headache?”
He found it a little strange, what else was there that could give Emperor Xingwu a headache.
Ye Frost did not answer.
Gongsun Yun on the side lazily said.
“It’s not because of you, again helping the Foundry Sect get back the treasures, and giving face to the Great Chu Kingdom, His Majesty doesn’t even know what to give you now.”
Zhou An sniffed, the corner of his mouth twitching slightly.
It was said as if it made sense.
Not long ago when he was in the Imperial Study Room, Emperor Xingwu had said this matter, and Zhou An had not taken it seriously.
Now, it seemed like Emperor Xingwu had a real headache.
Next to him, Shi Xi Yuan has come to spirit.
As a fisherman, it is very difficult to have no fish to catch.
But there are always more solutions than difficulties.
Shi Xi Yuan is holding a tree branch with a line tied to it.
The branch was only the size of a palm, and the other end of the line was connected to a teacup, which still had water in it.
Zhou An wondered, “There are no fish, what are you fishing for, Master Shi?”
Shi Xi Yuan concentrated and said, “Practicing pole technique.”
Zhou An’s head was filled with black lines.
Truly, if you really can’t catch any fish, it’s useless to practice anyhow.
It was as if Shi Xi Yuan had a magic spell, it was impossible to fish at all.
The few people chatted for a while longer.
During this time, Zhou An sensed Monk Empty Wen’s gaze and disliked him back very directly.
Monk Empty Wins was filled with gloom and said nothing.
Not long after, Emperor Xingwu and Eunuch Wei came out.
Next, it was the same as always, and the crowd ate and drank again.
However, halfway through the meal, Eunuch Wei cleared his throat and stood out.
When Eunuch Wei came out, the crowd knew that the reward had come.
Next, with Eunuch Wei holding the imperial decree in his hands, he began to read it out.
Everyone was rewarded, with possessions, as well as additional titles.
Zhou An originally thought that Yu Hang would be mentioned to the state, but he did not expect that to be the case.
In addition to continuing to be a Prefectural Order, Yu Hang was also given the title of an envoy.
The authority of this title is not small, it is responsible for going to the neighboring places, to implement some of Yu Hang’s law of governance.
Zhou An was aware of the fact that Yu Hang had done a lot of things in the Tiancheng Prefecture, the most awesome of which was to punish some of the corrupt people.
Judging from this one order from Emperor Xingwu, Emperor Xingwu should want to punish those corrupt people.
In this regard, Zhou An felt that it was also right.
Although the people of the Great Chu Kingdom were doing alright nowadays, there were always nooks and crannies.
This order coming out would at least make a lot of people’s hearts palpitate.
Next, there was another round of rewards.
Each to their own, let’s leave it aside for now.
Only on Zhou An’s side, there had been none.
It wasn’t until the time was approaching noon that Eunuch Wei made a slight pause.
Immediately afterward, regarding Zhou An’s reward, it finally came.
“Fenglin State Craftsmanship Supervisor Zhou An, during his term of office, he has worked diligently and repeatedly cracked the plots of the Jianghu Demons, he is rewarded with a hundred taels of gold, and his official position is to be the Supervisor of the Craftsmanship Supervisors of HuaiXiJing.”
Supervisor, is the first hand of the Crafting Supervisor.
Huaixi Jing was the superior city of Maple Forest State.
This reward was considered a rise.
However, when this reward came out, everyone present looked over with puzzled gazes.
There was no way for them not to be puzzled.
Because according to what Zhou An did, this reward …… is too low.
Raising an official is raising an official, but it is too low.
Zhou An did not care, he even felt that the emperor still understood him.
After all, he only needs such an idle position, if busy he really can not stand.
Not only was he promoted, but he was also able to touch the fish liver proficiency.
Simply don’t be too cool.
As everyone knows, everyone likes to have more money and less work close to home.
Zhou An was the same.
He followed the etiquette and prepared to stand up to say thank you.
However, before he could finish this action, he saw Eunuch Wei giving him a wink.
This meant that the matter was not yet finished, so don’t get up yet.
Zhou An froze, his heart suddenly having a bad premonition.
Is it hard …… for Emperor Xingwu to give him a whole outrageous reward?
Zhou An thought so in his heart.
Afterward, Eunuch Wei paused for a slight moment and began to read again.
“Now that the Great Chu State has been established for ten years, Zhou An has risen from the grassroots and gradually flourished in the Jianghu, I am deeply gratified, and in addition to the above rewards, there are additional rewards.”
When the crowd heard this, they were all puzzled and curious as to what exactly was in this additional reward.
Eunuch Wei, after all, was the one who did this, and had long since become familiar with it, and was even very good at hanging on to it.
He paused here for a long time.
After a while, Eunuch Wei waited until everyone’s eyes all looked over, and only then continued.
“In addition to Zhou An’s position as the supervisor of the Craftsman’s Supervisor, Zhou An will be rewarded as the Secretary of the Department of Guile of the Huaixi Jing Town, Chin Chin!”
This word out, the whole field is silent.
The scene was silent.
Everyone’s face showed a stunned look.
Zhen Gui Si Si Jing!
And it was a Jing level Secretary Jing!
Everyone looked at Zhou An, and their eyes immediately became incomparably reverent.
This reverence came from Zhou An’s identity at this moment.
If it was the hand of the Crafting Supervisor, then everything was fine.
But now, Zhou An was not only the hand of the Crafting Supervisor, but also the Secretary of the Zhen Gui Si Jing.
What is a secretary of the capital, that is a real position of real power.
With this position, it could be said that in a capital level city, one could have unimpeded access and run amok.
Zhou An frowned as he suddenly felt that this reward did not have much benefit for him.
He was aware of how busy the Zhen Gui Si was.
If it really came next, then the wait would be impossible to salvage.
“Something’s not right, how did the Emperor arrange this position for me?” Zhou An thought strangely.
At first, he had explained it to the Emperor, and the Emperor understood that he really did not want to be in a very busy position.
To suddenly give this position now, it was likely to have other meanings.
Thinking this way, Zhou An saw Eunuch Wei cast his eyes towards him.
That look he understood represented a moment of peace.
Zhou An understood, there was something else here, and the follow-up himself might be able to know.
