"I can't stay in the Zhen Wu Dynasty forever. I'm getting closer and closer to breaking through to the Earth Grade God Ancestor Realm. With the support of the Zhen Wu Dynasty, I should be able to break through within half a year. After that, I should return to the Octagon Territory as soon as possible after I kill Dongfang Yuqing!"
"I don't know how chaotic the Octagon Territory is, but with the support of the two ancient overlords and the Earth Ancestor, plus Ni Huang's control, I should be able to get through this difficult period." Lin Feng had mixed feelings as he walked.
Lin Feng did not know that his most valued son, Lin Zu, had disappeared. He also did not know that Zhan Qian had died protecting Lin Zu. If he had known, he would have rushed back without hesitation to give Lin Feng the position of Great Ancestor.
Lin Feng wanted to break through to the Earth Grade God Ancestor Realm as soon as possible. There were no good opportunities in the Octagon Territory, but it was different in the Zhen Wu Dynasty. If he grasped the opportunity, he could break through to the Earth Grade God Ancestor Realm. In this way, Zhuang Lingyun's prediction that he would become an overlord within five years was no longer a joke.
Lin Feng did not forget the three-year agreement with Ni Huang. If one year had passed and there were two years left, he would continue to work hard and become an overlord as soon as possible.
Lin Feng opened the door and entered a room in the palace. It was a very luxurious place to live. The room was very big and there was a lot of light. The sun was shining on both sides of the room. Although it was luxurious, it didn't seem to have lost its ancient charm.
"My lord, can I come in?"
Just as Lin Feng was about to rest, a woman's voice came from outside. Lin Feng was stunned, but after thinking about it carefully, he realized that he had saved a father and a daughter, so it must be the girl outside.
"Come in." Lin Feng sat up and saw the door being pushed open. Then, a girl walked in.
At this moment, the girl was no longer wearing simple and old clothes. Instead, she had changed into a more luxurious floral dress. Because she was taking a bath, the girl's temperament was completely reflected. It couldn't be said that she was a peerless beauty, but at least she was a delicate girl.
The girl stood in front of Lin Feng and bowed to him politely. She had the temperament of a lady from a noble family, not an ordinary girl. This made Lin Feng very confused.
"Sir, thank you for standing up for us father and daughter today. You are the first special official I have ever seen!" The woman pursed her lips and smiled. Her smile was very natural and sincere. It was a smile that came from the bottom of her heart. She didn't know how long it had been since she felt so relieved.
Lin Feng shook his head. He didn't care about what had happened that day. It didn't matter if the person he had met was a woman, an old man or a beggar, he wouldn't stand by and watch them die.
"You don't have to thank me. I'm just doing what I'm supposed to do. You can work in my mansion from now on. There aren't many people in my mansion, but there are still about 20 of them. Maybe after the Criminal Army is established, there will be more people. So, you just have to take care of us stinky men!" Said Lin Feng while smiling in a friendly manner. The first time he saw the girl, he knew that she was a shy girl. He had to ask for her opinion.
The girl shyly lowered her head and smiled, but she still nodded, "My lord, you saved this little girl and this little girl's father. We will definitely assist you. If you want us to do it, I will do it."
"Alright, from now on, you can live in the right side palace. Your father also lives there." Lin Feng nodded and indicated that the girl could leave. The girl didn't continue wasting Lin Feng's time. She knew that such a powerful person wasn't someone that a little girl like her could deal with. The saying that she would marry him was a joke.
The girl didn't have the courage to say such a thing. She could only silently remember that Lin Feng was a hero. She remembered that it was this man who had saved her life. It was this man who had given her hope to continue living. It was this man who had protected her reputation and prevented the Benevolent Prince from humiliating her.
Creak. The girl left the room and closed the door. At that moment, the room became quiet again. There was a special fragrance in the air, it was the fragrance of water after a bath.
Lin Feng frowned and sat on the bed. Now that the great ancestor had removed the seal, Bing Ling could come out whenever she wanted. Lin Feng could also go back to his spirit's world whenever he wanted. However, that wasn't the solution. Bing Ling couldn't do much in the Zhen Wu Dynasty. The great ancestor of the Zhen Wu Dynasty could easily subdue her.
Lin Feng didn't want to drag Bing Ling down just to escape. It was better to take one step at a time and carry out his plan step by step.
Going back to the spirit's world was meaningless. He would be escaping from the Zhen Wu Dynasty, but when he came out of the spirit's world, he would still be in the territory of the Zhen Wu Dynasty. Therefore, it was meaningless.
Lin Feng didn't want to think about it anymore. The more he thought about it, the more his head hurt. Lin Feng lay on the bed and gradually fell asleep.
The selection of the criminal army was going well. The next morning, the Supervisory Department, the Chief Minister, and all the criminal system were busy spreading the news of the criminal army's recruitment. Then, they waited for the registration and the assessment.
At the same time, Dongfang Yuqing's army was also recruiting people. There was a sea of people. Almost all the Spirit and Holy Ancestors of the Zhen Wu Dynasty heard the news and rushed over. Some officials who didn't have any real power also chose to join.
Dongfang Yuqing's face was full of smiles. The Minister of War followed closely behind him. Once the War Department was formed, Dongfang Yuqing would hand over this important department to Li Pin. The Minister of War was the most suitable person to manage the War Department.
"I'll go to the court later. You don't have to go. Stay here and take the assessment." Dongfang Yuqing ordered Li Pin. Li Pin didn't dare to say anything and nodded.
"Prime Minister, I heard that Lin Feng and the Benevolent Prince had a conflict yesterday. Haha, there's going to be a good show. You can sit on the mountain and watch the tigers fight, haha." Li Pin laughed. He had heard about it yesterday. At first, he couldn't believe that Lin Feng had dared to offend the Benevolent Prince. But after getting used to it, he started to mourn for Lin Feng.
Dongfang Yuqing smiled. He was going to sit on the mountain and watch the tigers fight. At this time, he didn't need to do anything. The Benevolent Prince wouldn't let Lin Feng go.
"Don't worry about that. You just need to test these experts. Our army can't be weaker than the criminal army! We must make the army a thorn in the ancestor's side! "Dongfang Yuqing shouted fiercely. He clenched his teeth and clenched his fists.
Li Pin, the Minister of War, was surprised. He asked, "Why should it be a thorn in the ancestor's side? Shouldn't it be a sword for the ancestor? "
"Haha, that's just on the surface. I want the army to be my own army. Do you understand?" Dongfang Yuqing looked ferocious. His eyes were filled with killing intent.
At this moment, Li Pin was scared. He didn't think that his master would have such a rebellious idea. Was he thinking about the army?
Li Pin didn't say anything because he was scared. Dongfang Yuqing smiled. He tidied his robe and prepared to go to the court.
After Lin Feng left the room, Lu Zhan rushed in and reported to him about the recruitment of the criminal army. Lin Feng couldn't help but frown.
"Sir, the criminal army is recruiting very few people. There are only a few hundred Spirit God Ancestors and only two Saint God Ancestors!"
"What's the reason?" Lin Feng knew that there must be something fishy, and most of it was related to Dongfang Yuqing's army.
"You should be able to guess that it was Dongfang Yuqing's army that attracted everyone's attention. The True Martial Dynasty's experts don't dare to disrespect Dongfang Yuqing, and you righteously forbade the relatives of the officials from joining, so no one came to participate." Lu Zhan didn't want to say it, but now that the recruitment was blocked, he had to report it.
Lin Feng frowned. He didn't expect that the upright and plainspoken recruitment of the criminal army with real fighting ability would be one of the main reasons for the recruitment. Besides, Dongfang Yuqing had a strong network, which he couldn't compare with.
"Sir, what should we do? If it goes on like this, the criminal army will be far behind the army. " Lu Zhan was a little anxious. It was clear that once the army was established, Li Pin, the Minister of War, would be in charge of it. When he followed Dongfang Yuqing, he was Li Pin's enemy. Now that they were on different sides, the conflict would intensify.
Therefore, whether the criminal army could be established or not was closely related to Lu Zhan. He was confident that once the criminal army was established, Lin Feng would let him be in charge.
"What do the strong cultivators of the Zhen Wu Dynasty care about the most?" Lin Feng didn't understand what the strong cultivators of the Zhen Wu Dynasty needed. In the Zhen Wu Dynasty, fighting skills were the most important thing, but in the Zhen Wu Dynasty, they only cared about power.
"Of course, they care about official positions and extravagance!" Replied Lu Zhan without hesitation. Everybody, including himself, cared about these things.
"I see." Lin Feng nodded. He was even more certain now. After thinking for a while, he couldn't help but smile. Lu Zhan was surprised.
"Go and tell the people that on the day the criminal army is established, the Founding Emperor will give them medals."
"Medals?" Lu Zhan was surprised. He didn't understand what medals Lin Feng was talking about.
"The Founding Emperor will give ten medals to the criminal army. Ordinary people can't get that kind of honor." Said Lin Feng jokingly. He patted Lu Zhan's shoulder and left the palace. He was ready to go to the Imperial Court.
After solving the recruitment problem, Lin Feng knew that there was a bigger problem waiting for him. The Benevolent Prince would definitely complain about him in front of the Founding Emperor.
After Lin Feng left, Lu Zhan was astonished. He didn't know if it was true or not. If it was true, all the strong cultivators of the Zhen Wu Dynasty would go crazy, but if it wasn't true, all the strong cultivators of the Zhen Wu Dynasty would become furious.
But since Lin Feng was so confident, Lu Zhan could only spread the news to solve the practical problem of recruitment.
As expected, when the news spread, many strong cultivators who were waiting for the exam left and went to the criminal army.
