Chapter 161: Appointment Letter of the Southern Domain Commander

Qin Feng and his companion walked on the way to The Listen To Rain Pavilion. Suddenly, they heard a noisy commotion behind them.

Turning to look, they saw that the common people had been pushed aside by soldiers wearing armor and demon slayers in demon slaying uniform.

Demon slaying uniform were standard issue for the Heavenly Cities Demon Slaying Department, indicating that these people were likely from Heavenly City, but it was unclear which city they specifically came from.

Qin Feng glanced over and suddenly widened his eyes.

It was because he saw two familiar faces!

Leading the guards at the front of the team were two men in blue demon-slaying attire, none other than Yang He and Zhang Tiannan, who had interacted with him during the visit to Qiyuan City.

“How did they end up in the procession? Are all these people from Qiyuan City?” Qin Feng wondered.

Continuing to look towards the center of the procession, Qin Feng was even more surprised.

In the protected center, there was none other than Qiyuan City’s governor Li Mingxuan and the Demon Slaying Department’s chief Zhou Kai!

Following them were the group of artisans who had previously come to Jinyang City—the Divine Workshops!

However, this time, the members of the Divine Workshop were more numerous than the night Qin Feng met them, with many unfamiliar faces among them.

Among them, an old man with white hair stood out prominently, indicating a high status.

He held a smoking pipe in his mouth, hands behind his back, walking almost shoulder to shoulder with Li Mingxuan and Zhou Kai.

The white-haired man wore the distinctive red attire of the Divine Workshop, with his chest exposed.

The muscles revealed were even more impressive than those of the young people!

Qin Feng lowered his head to glance at his own somewhat lackluster chest muscles and then reexamined the white-haired man. He felt the world had a deep malice towards scholars.

“Truly deserving of being the workshop that produces Divine Engravers. Even an old man maintains such good physique,” Qin Feng smirked.

Seeing the procession approaching, he instinctively held Lan Ningshaung’s hand and pulled her aside.

Lan Ningshaung was initially puzzled, but then a blush quickly spread across her face, full of tenderness and joy.This chapter was first shared on the Ñøv€lß1n platform.

This action naturally attracted the attention of some people.

Yang He was the first to look over, catching sight of the clasped hands and casting an envious glance, his expression sour.

Zhang Tiannan nodded in greeting, considering it a form of acknowledgment.

They were still on guard duty, so casual conversation was not allowed.

Then Li Governor and Zhou Kai noticed Qin Feng, offering a smile.

The procession continued forward and disappeared at the end of the street.

Qin Feng followed with his gaze and muttered, “That seems to be the direction of the Lord’s Mansion.”

After some thought, he speculated on a possibility.

After the calamity in the city, there were no survivors in the Lord’s Mansion.

Zhou Kai was the first to speak, “I believe everyone is aware of the recent turmoil in Jinyang City.

With the revelation of the dragon vein, it is inevitable that various demons and monsters will covet it.

Five days ago, the imperial decree ordered us to deal with this matter.

Lord Li, what are your thoughts?”

Li Mingxuan, as the Governor of Heavenly City, demonstrated outstanding governance skills.

He eloquently explained the management and reconstruction of Jinyang City.

Some seemingly complicated matters became clear in his words, showing great organization.

The others nodded in agreement.

The Divine Workshop group didn’t understand, but they also nodded along.

The white-haired old man sitting in his chair seemed to be dozing off with a pipe in his mouth.

As time passed, many issues were settled.

Next, the discussion revolved around appointments.

The Governor’s Mansion and the Demon Slaying Department were two separate institutions, one responsible for governance and the other for security.

Their appointments did not clash significantly.

Until Governor Li suddenly spoke, “To better manage a place, one must be familiar with it.

However, I know little about Jinyang City. Besides the previously mentioned appointments, I want to select someone extra here.

That person is—”

Before he could finish, Zhou Kai immediately interrupted, “Lord Li and I seem to be thinking the same. I also plan to select someone from here to join the Demon Slaying Department.”

“That person is Qin Feng from the Qin family!”

As soon as this statement was made, Li Mingxuan and Zhou Kai looked at each other across a table, both expressionless.

Governor Li spoke, “If I remember correctly, the troubles in Jinyang City led to chaos, but the Demon Slaying Department here is intact. Why does Lord Zhou need to recruit additional people? However, the Lord’s mansion in this city is now without survivors. I am currently in need of personnel, so I ask Lord Zhou to be generous.”

Zhou Kai immediately showed a troubled expression, “If Governor Li says so, I can’t really refute you.”

Except for the group from the Divine Workshop, everyone who heard this statement was greatly surprised.

When did the strict and petty Lord Zhou become so accommodating?

Even Li Mingxuan frowned, sensing that things were not so simple.

Sure enough, as he expected, after a pause, Zhou Kai placed an appointment letter on the table and pushed it in front of everyone.

“However, including Qin Feng in the Demon Slaying Department is an order from our boss. Even if I want to refuse, I can’t.” Zhou Lord shook his head with a sigh, but his eyebrows lifted.

Li Mingxuan looked at the appointment letter on the table and saw the seal in the lower right corner. His expression shook.

“Commander Of the Southern Region, Yan Zhou!”
