"Hall Master …" Mo Heng hurriedly stepped forward.
Song Chengzhi waved his hand and said in a deep voice, "Let them go."
"What about Chu Li …?" Mo Heng hurriedly asked.
Song Chengzhi said, "Chu Li will follow them too."
"Clan Leader?!" Mo Heng cried out involuntarily, "Chu Li was transferred to the Front Palace Division?"
"Yes." Song Chengzhi gritted his teeth and nodded slowly.
Chu Li frowned. "Clan Leader, did you fight with someone?"
Song Chengzhi waved his hand and said irritatedly, "It's just a fight, it's no big deal … Chu Li, you should go to the Front Palace Department!"
Chu Li frowned and looked at him. "Clan Leader, what's going on?"
"The two Deputy Palace Masters personally gave the order. I can't stop them." Song Chengzhi shook his head and said, "It's useless even if I argue. I can't refuse the Main Palace Master's transfer order."
"Even I can't reject it?" Chu Li frowned. "Do I have to listen to the main hall?"
Song Chengzhi revealed a mocking sneer. "In the past, when the White Dew Hall hadn't declined, we could still bargain. But now, when a tiger falls to the plains, it will be bullied by dogs. Do you understand?"
Mo Heng said, "Hall Master, isn't the Main Hall being too much of a bully? We fought with the Asuras and ended up in this state, but not only did the Headquarter not pity our sacrifice, he even added insult to injury. This is too much! "
"The one with the surname Zhu is playing tricks!" Song Chengzhi sneered, "Despicable and shameless villain!"
He gritted his teeth so hard that they creaked, his cheeks bulged, and his eyes shot out a cold light.
"He was the one who injured the Clan Leader?" Chu Li asked.
Song Chengzhi said, "I can't beat him now!"
Chu Li said, "Clan Leader, it seems like I'm destined to be a member of the Front Palace Division?"
"You won't be able to escape unless you betray the Rain Master Palace!" Song Chengzhi patted him on the shoulder, shook his head and sighed, "But with your ability, you can shine everywhere, no one can hide you … Besides, the Front Hall Department is a good place to go, better than our White Dew Hall!"
Chu Li shook his head and said, "Clan Leader, if I join the Front Palace Division, won't I become a deserter of the White Dew Clan?"
"It's not that you want to escape, it's that you've been transferred." Song Chengzhi waved his hand and said, "I will explain to the brothers in the hall clearly. Everyone has seen your contributions and is grateful to you!"
If it were not for Chu Li's formation, the White Dew Clan might not even have a few people left. Without Chu Li restraining the Great Asura, the White Dew Clan would have been annihilated a long time ago. All the disciples were grateful to Chu Li, which was why Mo Heng was confident that everyone would elect Chu Li as the Deputy Clan Leader.
Chu Li frowned and looked at him. "Clan Leader, how did you change your mind so quickly?"
Song Chengzhi sighed and said, "In the end, I still can't change the Main Hall's mind. I can only follow orders obediently. I can't disobey orders, and neither can you. This is the reality!"
He made a big scene and even fought with Zhu Zhengfeng, the Commander of the Front Palace Department. In the end, he was not able to defeat Zhu Zhengfeng. Instead, he was taught a good lesson by Zhu Zhengfeng and reprimanded for being selfish and holding up Chu Li's future.
The White Dew Clan had received enough favors from Chu Li, but not only did they not repay him, they kept asking for more. If they had even a shred of conscience, they should have let Chu Li join the Front Palace Department. Everyone knew that joining the Front Palace Department would bring them limitless opportunities.
He was angry but helpless. Zhu Zhengfeng had exposed his inner thoughts, but his martial arts was not as good as Zhu Zhengfeng's. He could not win, so he could only accept his fate.
The three young men in white had been standing quietly at the side. At this time, one of them said gently, "Brother Chu, the Front Palace Department is responsible for a higher level of fighting and killing. The enemies they face are stronger, so they need a top-notch master like Brother Chu. You staying in the White Dew Clan may be considerate, but it's a great waste. Your martial arts should be used to deal with stronger enemies!"
Chu Li frowned and looked at them.
The three young men in white looked at him with sincerity.
Chu Li shook his head and smiled bitterly. "The White Dew Clan is my home. I'm really unwilling to leave at this time."
"Brother Chu, you can come back often." The young man in white who spoke earlier said, "The Front Palace Department is usually very free. You can come and go as you please and cultivate. No one cares. They only gather when there's a mission."
"… Alright." Chu Li nodded slowly and looked at Song Chengzhi and Mo Heng. "Clan Leader, Clan Leader Mo, I'll go!"
"Mm." Song Chengzhi forced a smile. "Come back often. Everyone will miss you."
Chu Li nodded.
The young man in white fist saluted and smiled. "I'm Wen Yi. Brother Chu, let's go."
"Please — —!" Chu Li fist saluted.
The three of them led him out of the main hall slowly. The disciples of the White Dew Clan in the martial arts field outside stopped and opened up a path. They looked at Chu Li and Wen Yi quietly.
Chu Li nodded slightly and did not say much.
After passing through the crowd and exiting the main door, Chu Li suddenly stopped and turned his head to look back.
The White Dew Clan was still magnificent under the sun. It did not look weak, but it was a little cold.
He sighed faintly and shook his head as he followed Wen Yi and the others.
Wen Yi smiled. "Brother Chu, you don't have to worry. You can return to the White Dew Clan whenever you want. You can even stay here. You'll only return to the Front Palace Division when you're summoned."
Chu Li asked, "That much freedom?"
"Brother Chu, there are many situations like yours." Wen Yi's footsteps gradually quickened. He shuttled through the bustling crowd like a fish and quickly rushed forward. He spoke in a gentle and refined manner. "They're all selected from the various clans. They treat the clans as their roots. It's more comfortable to stay in their original clans. The Front Palace Division won't force anyone as long as it doesn't interfere with their cultivation and official business."
Chu Li nodded slowly.
Wen Yi said, "But there's one thing you can't change. You can't fight for the clans and you can't participate in their operations."
Chu Li smiled. "Interesting."
Wen Yi smiled. "That's why the Front Palace Division has more freedom than before. As long as you're capable and perform meritorious deeds, you'll be rewarded handsomely. Slowly, you'll be promoted to Deputy Commander or Commander."
Chu Li said, "I'm not that ambitious. I just want to stand firm in the Outland and not be ostracized by it."
"Before this, everyone was wary of you. But now, you've proven your innocence." Wen Yi smiled. "This time, you've killed so many Great Asuras and Asuras. Who would have the cheek to say anything?"
Chu Li nodded slowly.
The four of them quickly passed through the main street and left the White Dew Clan. They headed north and walked for a thousand miles before they arrived at another towering city. It was much bigger than the White Dew Clan and more prosperous and lively.
This was the Drizzle City where the Front Palace Division was located.
They entered the Drizzle City from the south gate and headed north. They passed through the bustling main street until they arrived at the majestic basilica built halfway up the mountain.
The four of them stopped in front of the basilica's steps.
A yellow-bearded, thin elder stood at the entrance of the basilica on the forty-ninth step. He was dozing off with his eyes closed. When he heard Wen Yi's cough, he opened his eyes and saw them. He quickly turned around and went in to report.
A moment later, the yellow-bearded elder waved his hand. "Come in."
Wen Yi and the other two led Chu Li up the steps and entered the basilica. They saw two middle-aged men in the spacious basilica. One of them was of medium build, with thick eyebrows and big eyes. He gave off a rustic vibe while the other was slender and handsome.
