After receiving the position of commander of the Immortal Slaying Platform, Zhou Tianjun happily brought Yang Chen back to the Heavenly Lord Residence. Then, the whole family set off. Zhou Tianjun and Madam Heavenly Lord brought Yang Chen, Zhou Xianying, and the other four women to the Heavenly Court's most famous Merit Market. Yang Chen and the others were new here, so there must be a lot of useful things to exchange.
Yang Chen was very satisfied, so was Zhou Tianjun. The official on duty in the Ministry of Personnel was also very satisfied. This was because Yang Chen was very filial and gave him a few Barrier Dispelling Pills that Yang Chen had personally refined.
When she saw the merit value on Yang Chen's Merit Ring, the eyes of the Madam of the Heavenly Lord stared directly like a copper bell, and her mouth directly uttered a scream.
"The executioner of the Immortal Slaying Platform!" The official in charge of receiving Yang Chen couldn't help but feel a subconscious rejection. It was as if interacting with such a low-level servant would lower his character. If Yang Chen hadn't been personally brought here by Zhou Tianjun, the official on duty wouldn't have paid any attention to Yang Chen.
"Didn't the higher-ups arrange a new position for Yang Chen?" Zhou Tianjun smiled as he watched the official on duty finish all this.
As for the previous commander, he didn't even know that Yang Chen had left the Immortal Slaying Platform. What right did he have to be a commander? When Yang Chen's news reached the higher-ups, he was stripped of his commander title.
However, when the official from the Ministry of Rites picked up the name list and started to check on Yang Chen, he suddenly realized that Yang Chen's new position had already been arranged. Furthermore, it was personally arranged by one of the six assistant ministers. This seemed a little interesting.
However, to Yang Chen, this so-called salary really didn't mean much. The salary of the Heavenly Court was directly the merit, which was directly transferred from the Heavenly Court to Yang Chen's merit ring. It was not a large amount, but it was not a small amount either. There were at least ten million merit points. However, such a small amount of merit points was nothing to Yang Chen.
Yang Chen was very famous in the Spirit Realm. Almost everyone knew about him. However, in the Immortal Realm, only a few people who paid attention to him knew about him. Most cultivators did not know about Yang Chen. Even in the Ministry of Personnel, if it weren't for Yang Chen's special status as the executioner of the Immortal Slaying Platform, the officials of the Ministry of Personnel probably wouldn't even know that there was such a cultivator in the Heavenly Court.
It was perfectly normal for him to get the salary he deserved from the Heavenly Court, and no one could say anything strange about it. Heavenly Lord Zhou personally brought the son-in-law he had just approved to the Ministry of Appointments of the Heavenly Court to work for Yang Chen.
Which one of the wily old foxes in the Ministry of Personnel wasn't a smart person? Seeing this, the smile on his face became even more cordial, and his tone became much more polite. Even Heavenly Lord Zhou was surprised by Yang Chen's change from arrogance to humility.
The officials on duty in the Ministry of Personnel immediately looked gloomy. Every radish in the Heavenly Court had its own pit now. How could there be extra pits for a new radish like Yang Chen? Moreover, Yang Chen was only a Golden Immortal. There were many Infinite-tribulation True Immortals waiting in line for the Heavenly Court to make arrangements for them. How could a junior like Yang Chen dare to ask such a question?
Yang Chen's new position was handled as quickly as possible, and the grade of his merit ring was directly changed. Originally, Yang Chen was the executioner of the Immortal Slaying Platform, but now he was the commander of the entire Immortal Slaying Platform. In other words, from selecting the executioner to managing the group of Heavenly Soldiers guarding the entrance of the Immortal Slaying Platform, it was all Yang Chen's responsibility.
"Yang Chen, if you don't have enough merit points, just take them from me." Madam of Heavenly Lord Zhou kindly paid for all the expenses of Yang Chen's family, and asked them to look around to see if there was anything they wanted.
Of course, Madam of Heavenly Lord Zhou had enough face. Not only did she let this reluctant official see Yang Chen with a smile on his face, but she also gave Yang Chen a salary according to the number of years Yang Chen had served on the Immortal Slaying Platform. Not only that, she also took the initiative to pay Yang Chen interest according to the number of years Yang Chen had served on the Immortal Slaying Platform.
Since it was Heavenly Lord Zhou's face, the official of the Ministry of Personnel gave Heavenly Lord Zhou face, and began to take out the name list of the officials of the Heavenly Court, trying to squeeze out a place for Yang Chen.
Many innumerable Tribulation True Immortals queuing up in the Ministry of Personnel were surprised to see the official on duty send Heavenly Lord Zhou and Yang Chen out of the door with an apologetic smile, and did not forget to say a very melodramatic farewell. The main person who was sending them off was a junior Golden Immortal, which made many people's jaws drop.
"Auntie, I still have some merit points." Yang Chen hurriedly refused. What a joke! It was not kind of him to spend his mother-in-law's money as soon as he arrived. As he spoke, Yang Chen took out his Merit Ring and pointed at the number on it for Madam of Heavenly Lord to see.
Whether the effect Yang Chen said was true or not, the fact that he followed Heavenly Lord Zhou here and did not forget to show filial piety showed that this junior was worthy of training and was a talent.
Judging from Heavenly Lord Zhou's words, he did not know about this arrangement, otherwise, he would not have used his face to urge this matter. But how could Yang Chen, this little guy, make such a big figure personally arrange a new direction for him?
But it was not Yang Chen who asked this question, but Heavenly Lord Zhou. Heavenly Lord Zhou, one of the four marshals, was not someone to be trifled with. Moreover, the whole capital of the Heavenly Court was saying that Heavenly Lord Zhou's daughter had ascended from the Spiritual Realm and brought back a son-in-law. If he guessed correctly, this Yang Chen should be Heavenly Lord Zhou's son-in-law.
"You have a position in the Heavenly Court, but you haven't done it for many years. Since you've ascended to the Immortal Realm, you should get your salary back no matter what." Heavenly Lord Zhou quite approved of this son-in-law of his, so he tried to fight for benefits for Yang Chen in all aspects.
Yang Chen finally returned to Heavenly Lord Zhou's mansion. During these months, no one in the mansion, including Heavenly Lord Zhou, asked what Yang Chen did when he went out.
At least, Heavenly Lord Zhou had vaguely discovered that Yang Chen had undergone some good changes. Although his cultivation did not increase, his strength had increased a lot. This must be the change after Yang Chen went out, so there was nothing to be curious about.
This was in line with Yang Chen's previous duties as an executioner. Even the most dissatisfied cultivators had to admit that Yang Chen was definitely qualified to be the commander after seeing this arrangement.
Cultivators had their own Dao. Some things couldn't be said to other outsiders, even if it was his own wife, sometimes he would hide it. This was a common thing, so Yang Chen was very natural about it.
Fortunately, Yang Chen was just an executioner before. No matter how much he improved, he could not rise to the top in a single step. At most, he was just a servant or a strong man in the Heavenly Court. Heavenly Lord Zhou should also know the rules, so it was easy to satisfy him.
If Yang Chen asked the question himself, he would definitely be spat at by the official on duty in the Ministry of Personnel. Who do you think you are? How dare you be so arrogant? Although the official on duty in the Ministry of Personnel was a civil servant, he was still an Infinite-tribulation True Immortal. He could throw Yang Chen out of the Southern Heavenly Gate with one finger.
Yang Chen was an executioner, but now that he had come out of the Immortal Beheading Platform, it seemed that it would not be convenient for him to be an executioner again. Even if Yang Chen was willing, Heavenly Lord Zhou did not want his daughter to be a widow, so it was inevitable that he would give Yang Chen a new position.
