However, as soon as he raised his head, he saw Qian Wudang looking at him with a smile. The distance between them was quickly closing.
Lu Ye had no choice but to fly over. He cupped his fists and said, "Greetings, milord!"
Qian Wudang stood ten meters away from Lu Ye with his hands behind his back. He glanced at Lu Ye and nodded. "Not bad. You're really here. Why are you here?"
"I have some personal matters to deal with," Lu Ye replied casually without explaining too much.
Qian Wudang smiled and said, "When you get back to Cangyan Mountain Pass, send my regards to your Pass Master. She came and left in a hurry a month ago and didn't even want to see me."
"A month ago?" Lu Ye was stunned. Qian Wudang smiled meaningfully. "That's when you were locked up in the prison. How else do you think you got to Cangyan Mountain Pass?"
Lu Ye didn't know about this.
However, Qian Wudang didn't want to explain too much. He just said a few words and flew away from Lu Ye.
Lu Ye was left alone to think.
According to Qian Wudang's words, Lu Ye's trip to Cangyan Mountain was directly related to Nian Yue Xian's visit to Haotian City.
It seemed that Nian Yue Xian had asked for him from the Recruitment Department.
There were numerous mountain passes on the defensive line of the Military Province, yet he just so happened to head to such a special place like Azureflame Mountain Pass. Moreover, Yearning Moon Immortal had been guarding it all by herself for a few tens of years before that.
Perhaps Second Senior Sister had contributed to it.
The two women had a good relationship. There was no one on the front line to take care of Lu Ye, so Nian Yue Xian, the Pass Master who had a relationship with the Blue Blood Sect, took care of him.
In an instant, Lu Ye had already thought through most of the cause and effect of the matter. However, it was impossible for him to know that for the sake of fighting over him, Moon Thought Immortal had completely offended another Divine Sea Realm cultivator, and had even attacked him in public.
Cultivators from the Official Department came and went frequently. They were all cultivators who had rushed back from various places. Like Lu Ye, they all had the same idea: to get promoted as soon as possible so that they could get more monthly pay.
In the front line, military merits were often accumulated over time. The conflicts and battles with the Demons Ridge weren't as frequent as expected.
However, there were exceptions. The battles were extremely fierce. Both sides kept sending new people into the battlefield. In those places, military merits were increased, but there were also many people who died.
After waiting for a moment in the Official Department, it was her turn. Lu Ye stepped forward and handed the guard token to the petite, round-faced female cultivator in charge of this matter.
The female cultivator had promoted the ranks of countless cultivators every day, so she was naturally familiar with the process. She took the Guard Token and asked about Lu Ye's background. After checking the information in the Guard Token and confirming that there was no mistake, she asked Lu Ye to place the hand with the battlefield imprint on the battle merit plate to check how many battle merits he had accumulated.
Just like last time, the colors on the Battle Merit Plate constantly changed, and the female cultivator's calm expression also changed.
........
.............
The light that came out was yellow, which corresponded to the Wei Wei. This time, it was purple, which corresponded to the Senior Captain!
. It seemed that his calculations were correct. The military merits he accumulated were enough for him to get promoted.
When he looked up, the beautiful eyes of the female cultivator who was handling this for him were filled with shock and admiration.
In Grand Heaven Alliance, there were many cultivators with the rank of Commandant. She had been handling military promotions here for a long time. Not to mention Commandants, she had even seen some guards of higher ranks.
But how could there be such a young Commandant in this world?
Because Lu Ye had been running around for a long time and had experienced many battles, he looked older than his actual age. But no matter how old he was, he was only about twenty years old.
A twenty-year-old Commandant, let alone seeing one, she had never even heard of one.
And his cultivation was only at the First-Order True Lake Realm!
Generally speaking, in order to be promoted to the rank of Senior Captain, one would have to be at the late stage of the True Lake Stage at the earliest. As for the ranks of Army Protector and Battalion Commander, they were all reserved for Spirit Ocean Stage cultivators. There was no mention of any True Lake Stage general being promoted to the rank of Army Protector.
Because for this rank, it was not only the amount of military merits accumulated, but also the amount of military merits.
Perhaps a True Lake Realm cultivator could rely on his monthly salary to accumulate enough military merits. But if his military merits were not great enough, he would not be promoted to a guard or camp leader.
A Commandant who was not even twenty years old and was only at the First-Order True Lake Realm. The female cultivator had been here for so many years, but this was the first time she saw Lu Ye. It was inevitable that she was shocked and puzzled.
She could not understand what Lu Ye had done to accumulate so many military merits.
"Senior Sister?"
Lu Ye saw that she was in a daze and could not help but call out.
The female cultivator came back to her senses and said apologetically, "I'll be done soon."
Then, she took Lu Ye's Guard Token and quickly returned it to him, "Junior Brother Lu, check it and make sure there are no mistakes."
Lu Ye took his Guard Token and poured his spirit energy into it. After confirming that the Guard Token was emitting a purple glow, he kept it and nodded to the female cultivator, "Thank you, Senior Sister."
Under the shocked gazes of the nearby cultivators, he left leisurely.
It wasn't until he left that the female cultivator revealed a vexed expression. Just now, she had been so shocked that she had forgotten to add her imprint to Lu Ye's. Such a handsome young talent, if she had some of the beautiful junior sisters in the sect come into contact with him more, perhaps she would be able to obtain some benefits.
As for herself, she was already married and had someone to protect, so naturally, she did not have any other thoughts.
The sky was already dark, so Lu Ye did not plan to continue his journey.
He took a day off from Nian Yue Xian, and Nian Yue Xian also told him not to rush back. Anyway, there was no war in Blue Flame Mountain Pass for a long time, so he could stay in Grand Sky City for a few more days, or even go back to Blue Blood Sect to take a look.
Grand Sky City was not only the center of Grand Sky Alliance in the War Province, but there were also many restaurants, teahouses, and even various shops in the city, mainly for the convenience of the cultivators who came and went.
Moreover, the prices here were quite cheap, about half of what they were outside.
Although Lu Ye did not come and go in a hurry last time, he was locked up in the prison for a few days, so he did not have the chance to walk around Grand Sky City. Now, he could take advantage of the night to look around.
Hu Po squatted on his shoulder, and the man and tiger walked around Grand Sky City at night.
After a while, Lu Ye stopped in front of a shop that specialized in selling demonic beast meat.
The two flood dragons in the War Merit Pavilion were big eaters, so Lu Ye spent ten to twenty thousand merit points each time he went in and out, so he might as well buy some demonic beast meat as backup. When he and Hu Po needed it, they could feed it to the two flood dragons.
He rarely used spirit stones, so he had accumulated a lot in his storage space.
After spending nearly a hundred thousand mid-grade spirit stones and almost emptying the stock of the shop, Lu Ye left with satisfaction, leaving the cultivator guarding the shop with a melancholic expression.
He entered another restaurant, ordered a table of good dishes, sat by the window, and ate heartily.
After eating and drinking to his heart's content, he continued to stroll around, and when he passed by a spirit tool shop, he entered.
The encounter during the day reminded him of one thing, and that was, the Mountain Pan Saber was recently upgrading, so he had to find another long saber to temporarily replace it.
Although it wouldn't take long for the Mountain Pan Saber to be completely repaired, if he needed to face an enemy during this period of time and didn't have a suitable weapon, it would be inconvenient for him to display his strength.
The situation during the day was like that, if it wasn't for the sudden collapse of his long saber, his opponent wouldn't have been able to catch his breath.
In the future, the Mountain Pan Saber might not be by his side, so having a backup would be more than enough to deal with emergencies.
However, he was now in the True Lake Stage, so spiritual weapons were no longer suitable for him, so he could only choose a magic weapon.
Weapons of this grade were naturally not cheap.
After a brief search in this spirit tool shop, he found a few magic tool long sabers. However, only one of them barely met his requirements.
He spent another large sum of spirit stones to buy this saber.
Compared to the Mountain Pan Saber, this saber was more than sharp, but not heavy enough, so Lu Ye didn't feel comfortable using it. Moreover, the Mountain Pan Saber had been with him for many years, and it was already imprinted with him, which was something that other weapons couldn't replace.
Realistically speaking, even if this saber wasn't inferior to the Mountain Pan Saber in terms of quality, Lu Ye could only display 90% of his usual strength.
Weapon cultivators relied too much on their weapons, which was an undeniable disadvantage of weapon cultivators.
After buying the demonic beast meat and the magic saber, Lu Ye didn't have the mood to continue shopping, afraid that he wouldn't be able to resist the urge to buy something.
Although he had a lot of spoils of war, he couldn't afford to spend so extravagantly.
He found an ownerless house nearby, opened the restrictions on the house, and went in to rest.
Yi Yi could finally come out to take a breather.
After a while, a man, a spirit, and a tiger sat together. Lu Ye's heart moved, borrowing the power of heaven's secrets to cultivate, and at the same time, urging the Talent Tree to continuously devour the power of the Fire Spirit Rock in his hand.
The Talent Tree's transformation hadn't been completed, and he didn't know how much energy it needed to absorb. Anyway, as long as Lu Ye had the time, he would take out the Fire Spirit Rock and let the Talent Tree devour it.
After a peaceful night, Lu Ye got up, packed his things, opened the door, and prepared to return to Cang Yan Mountain.
However, just as he was about to move, a person descended from the sky and landed in front of him.
The person who came was a tall and sturdy man with a full beard. He had a square face and looked very forthright.
The two of them looked at each other.
The sturdy man asked, "Junior Brother, do you have any military duties?"
Lu Ye shook his head, "No."
The sturdy man showed his guard order to Lu Ye, "This one is from the Law Division's Law Enforcement Hall, A3 Squad Captain Geng Wu Yu.
We are temporarily recruiting Junior Brother to follow us on a mission. If Junior Brother doesn't have any military duties, you can't disobey orders! "
As he spoke, the sturdy man urged his guard order, which emitted a rich yellow light. At the same time, his spirit energy surged, revealing his powerful Ninth Order True Lake Realm cultivation.
Lu Ye was stunned by his words, but he quickly reacted. Was he being recruited?
But … was it possible to recruit him on a temporary basis?
As if he had misunderstood something, King Geng Wu Yu said, "Junior Brother, don't worry. This mission isn't too risky, and it won't take too long. At most, it will take three to five days, so it won't take up too much of your time. Moreover, if you follow us on this mission, you will also be able to earn merits. “
