The Great Martial Saint!

Chapter 549 Appointment and Reward, Ten Thousand Demons Cast the Body (asking for monthly tickets~)

"I leave early and come back late every day. I wonder what I am busy with!?"

In the room, Li Xiangjun looked at the scenery outside the window boredly.

Outside the window, there is a green pond and green lotus. The water ripples gently in the breeze, creating sparkling water.

After that day, Chen Pingan never touched her again. He went out early and came back late every day, and even when he came back, he spent most of his time in the room.

Chen Ping'an has reached the level of Yuheng Grandmaster. She dare not investigate rashly and can only guess secretly.

She lurked beside Chen Pingan, shouldering an important mission to obtain more information for the Holy Church. But since Chen Pingan came back, she has not obtained any more effective clues.

In order to avoid suspicion, she could only stay in the house most of the time. The channels for obtaining information were limited, and as the biggest source of information, Chen Pingan was no longer close to her.

This made her lose a lot of opportunities!

She wanted to be able to stay with Chen Ping'an and get involved in more affairs, but now she has lost this opportunity, which makes her feel inexplicably depressed.

It was a good thing that Chen Ping'an didn't touch her.

But if she lost the source of the news, she would be doomed. This meant that all her previous efforts had turned into the cost of silence.

"Do you want to take the initiative to seduce me again?"

Li Xiangjun clenched her teeth, feeling quite conflicted.

It wasn't a question of whether to seduce or not, but that she had tried to seduce once before, but failed.

This dealt a heavy blow to her self-confidence.

A mixture of feelings of loss, reluctance, and relief made her doubt herself.

"Is he tired of it? But..." Li Xiangjun lowered her eyes and bit her lip, her eyes moving: "He only played it once!"

She glanced at the room not far away again, making a final hesitation in her heart.

"Do you want to take advantage of today's opportunity and try again?"

hum~
In the room, the spiritual light between Chen Pingan's eyebrows gradually dimmed, and the true energy flowing in his body gradually gathered and hid in the Dantian Qi Sea.

"After more than a month of hard training, we are finally approaching the pass!"

Chen Pingan slowly opened his eyes, his gaze slightly focused, and then a gold finger panel appeared in front of him.

Name: Chen Pingan
Realm: Late Yuheng - Spiritual Patterns and Spiritual Fruits (six patterns)
武学：七杀天罡拳入门（0/1440）、霸刀小成（0/1280）、七绝神功大成（0/4800）、万魔铸身诀大成（3075/3200）、游龙身法圆满、金刚不坏神功圆满、龙象霸体诀圆满、三分人劫指圆满
"125 points left!"

A hint of satisfaction appeared on Chen Ping'an's face.

After many days of hard work, the results are finally coming.

125 points of training experience, according to the current progress, there are roughly three days left!

Three days later, the Ten Thousand Demons Body Forging Technique was cultivated to perfection!
Since returning from the important town of Long'an, apart from occasionally learning about some news about Long'an events, he has spent the rest of his time on cultivation, biography, and sculpture.

As a result, he never paid much attention to Li Xiangjun.

Judging from his cultivation level, Li Xiangjun was not worth his attention.

However, the spiritual restriction between Li Xiangjun's eyebrows had changed, which meant that she had come into contact with a great master in the past. Interacting with the great master, it was clear that Li Xiangjun's identity was not that simple.

He should have some status in the Tianluo Sect!
With a person like this lurking around him, it was obvious that the Tianluo Cult had no good intentions.

However, he had observed for a long time in the past few days, but he didn't catch anything. As time went by, his attention gradually relaxed.

After all, there may be a big fish behind Li Xiangjun, but no matter how big the fish is, it cannot compare to his own practice.

Even if he found the clues to the big fish, he would be helpless at the critical moment if he didn't have enough strength. Even if he shared the clues with others, he would have to have enough strength to back it up!
Judging from the changes in the spiritual restrictions on Li Xiangjun's eyebrows, there must be a great master who is proficient in spirituality behind her, and he is definitely not an ordinary person.

In addition, the Tianluo Sect was a powerful force, and it was not necessarily as simple as having just one Grand Master. He did not know whether there was a series of conspiracies behind it.

As the situation was unclear and there were no key clues, Chen Pingan chose to stay put and develop quietly.

And now, his development is about to bear fruit.

Once the Ten Thousand Demons Body Forging Technique is perfected, he will be able to use the help of the Gold Finger Panel to engrave the seventh spiritual pattern in one fell swoop. Perhaps he can also use the foundation of previous insights to take a big step forward in engraving the eighth spiritual pattern!

Seven-pattern Grandmaster, the True Body of Ten Thousand Demons
With the addition of many magical weapons and skills, and relying on the perfect perception given by his golden finger panel, his combat power is enough to rival the Grandmaster Fengyun! Even if there is still a gap between him and the real Grandmaster Fengyun, it is definitely insignificant.

When they fought, they were evenly matched.

With the strength comparable to that of Grandmaster Fengyun, Chen Pingan undoubtedly has the basic conditions to dominate the Long'an business road.

The Daqian Ranking of the Most Powerful, which lists seventy-two great masters, has not been updated for a long time!
Looking across the dynasty’s territory, there may be many practitioners who are comparable to Grandmaster Fengyun, but the number is definitely not as many as one might imagine!

It is said that during the time when Chen Pingan was practicing hard, the rookie list was updated once.

Although Chen Ping'an didn't pay special attention to it, his subordinates still sent him a copy.

On the list, Wanjun's ranking did not change much. Perhaps because she did not have the latest results to show, she was still ranked 13th on the rookie list.

Since Chen Ping'an has already achieved Grandmaster status and is listed on the Hidden Dragon List, Gu Qingcheng is still at the top of the Rookie List this time.

Speaking of which, Gu Qingcheng has always been at the top of the list since she appeared on the list!
Like the previous update of the rookie list, Chen Pingan happened to be ranked second on the rookie list just because he did not show his master's strength.

As for his breakthrough in the small market and his cross-border counterattack, the Rookie List had already been updated. When it was updated this time, he was included in the Potential Dragon List, creating a perfect gap.

As a result, Gu Qingcheng's top spot on the rookie list has never been challenged!

"This is truly a son of luck!" Chen Pingan joked with a smile at the time.

The two of them have already been engaged and each has a marriage certificate in hand. Gu Qingcheng is considered his wife in name, so Chen Pingan still pays some attention to her.

When seeing Gu Qingcheng's ranking on the rookie list, Chen Ping'an's mind unconsciously emerged the day of farewell when he saw a strange vision from Gu Qingcheng.

Golden wheel, rosy clouds, bright moon, ancient sword, divine sky
If this miracle is not an illusion, then
Chen Pingan pursed his lips, a hint of caution appearing in his eyes.

His so-called wife is far more mysterious than people imagine!

"Wang Lingzhi, the special investigator of the Canglongzhou Pacification Office, has performed his duties conscientiously, worked diligently, and was loyal. He has repeatedly made extraordinary achievements in encircling and suppressing the strongholds of the evil extreme. In order to maintain the peace of the trade route and remove obstacles, he is hereby promoted to the candidate for the head of the Canglongzhou Pacification Office, and serves as the deputy inspector of the Long'an trade route, and concurrently as the deputy garrison commander of the important town of Beicang. He will be included in the review committee of the joint office and enjoy the treatment of a counselor."

"This is a special award for the investigation team of the State Pacification Division for their diligence in their duties."

"Here is Ma Yuanbang, the chief official of the Beicang Pacification Office."

After many days, the final commendation and appointment from the Canglongzhou Pacification Office was finally issued.

This appointment and commendation was reviewed many times by the Canglongzhou Pacification Office, which triggered a series of heated discussions. In the end, the powerful deputy director Zhang Tianyuan made the final decision, set the regulations, and issued them to the Beicang Pacification Office.

As the coordinator of the provincial pacification department's investigation team, Wang Lingzhi became the biggest winner of this appointment.

Not only was he promoted to the position of candidate for the position of Director of the Canglong Prefecture Pacification Office, he also held a position of real power, serving as deputy inspector of the Long'an commercial route and concurrently as deputy governor of the important town of Beicang.

In terms of power, there is obviously a world of difference between this and the ordinary sacrificial position in the previous provincial pacification office.

The most important thing is that, thanks to this achievement, Wang Lingzhi joined the review committee of the Long'an important town joint office and enjoyed the treatment of a consultant.

This also means that even in the important town of Longan, Wang Lingzhi has a say.

Being able to achieve this, in addition to Wang Lingzhi's own contribution, is also inseparable from the operation of the Wang family in the Canglongzhou Pacification Office.

Wang Lingzhi served as the deputy envoy of the trade route inspection and concurrently as the deputy governor of the important town of Beicang. In addition, he had a seat on the joint government review committee, which meant that he had a say in several aspects.

His influence can be said to have basically covered the Longan business route. Although he is not the one who has the final say, he has the right to know, attend meetings and deliberate on any important matters!
One can imagine how much effort the Wang family put in to achieve this effect. The favors and costs spent behind the scenes must have been quite a lot.

It can be said that Wang Lingzhi was promoted to this position thanks to his contribution this time.

Otherwise, even if Wang Lingzhi had merits in the encirclement and suppression, and in investigating Xue Kun's life and death, he would not have received so many awards. Normally, he would be promoted to a deputy chief officer, and at most he would be given a powerful position, but it would definitely not be a lucrative position like the deputy inspector of the Long'an Commercial Route.

Wang Lingzhi's promotion also means that the Wang family can take this opportunity to expand the family's influence.

The Wang family already has a share of interests in Long'an Commercial Road, Long'an is an important town, and there are many factions stationed here. With the support of Wang Lingzhi, I think it can go further on the original basis.

In addition, with the Wang family as his support, Wang Lingzhi was also able to gain great help in handling some official business and relationships. With the influence of the Wang family and the old team of the Wang family, he could easily open up the situation, which was difficult for a new official to do.

The only difficult town in Beicang was prepared by Wang Lingzhi for several months because of Xue Kunsheng's incident. Now it would be much easier to start the situation.

In addition, there is another wonderful thing about this matter. Although Wang Lingzhi serves as the deputy governor of Beicang, this position is a concurrent one. His real main job is still patrolling the Long'an business route.

This concurrent position is very flexible. Without this concurrent position, Chen Pingan would be Wang Lingzhi's superior. But with this concurrent position, more often than not, the subordinate relationship is not so clear.

When he needs to use his power, he can talk to the deputy governor of Beicang, and when he needs to assume responsibilities, he can shirk his responsibilities by saying that his main job is to inspect the Long'an commercial route.

If you have connections, you can make full use of these two relationships and do something amazing!
In addition, there is also the review meeting of the Long'an Joint Office. With this treatment, Wang Lingzhi's flexibility will be much higher. If he is smart, he can even use this privileged treatment to suppress the Northern Cang Guard.

but
The position guarding Beicang belongs to Chen Pingan, and neither Wang Lingzhi nor the Wang family have such high expectations. They are more hoping that when exerting the influence of the Wang family in the important town of Beicang, they will not encounter too many constraints from Chen Pingan.

After receiving the appointment, Wang Lingzhi looked excited and full of energy.

This was a big step for him in the Canglongzhou Pacification Office.

After years of hard work, this day finally came!
In addition to the appointment to the Canglongzhou Pacification Office, he also received letters from his family in the past two days.

Have a more thorough understanding of the matter.

Such a good game result was achieved not only with the full efforts of the family and the exchange of chips, but also with the contribution of the deputy director of the State Pacification Office, Jueyin Zhangli Wusheng.

According to the family's judgment, Li Wusheng was pinning his hopes on the Wang family to cause some trouble for Chen Pingan, the Rough Blade. However, given Li Wusheng's character, it seems that he was just following the trend and making his move casually, without fantasizing about causing a major blow to Chen Pingan.

But no matter which one it is, the Wang family is not that stupid and they are more inclined to wait and see about this matter.

Mang Dao Chen Pingan is a man of extraordinary talent, and he is also a member of the Northern Border Pacification Division. No one should offend him unless necessary. Even though they did not get off to a good start before, all parties did not want to go any further.

Therefore, the family's instructions to him in the letter were to spread the family's influence in the important town of Beicang as much as possible without a direct conflict with Chen Ping'an, the Rough Blade. In addition, by taking advantage of the privilege of a seat on the Joint Office Review Committee of the important town of Long'an, he could coordinate with other forces of the family to seek greater benefits for the family.

"Master Chen." Wang Lingzhi's joy was evident in his words: "I hope Master Chen will take good care of me in the future!"

Although he and Chen Pingan are at the same level, in the important town of Beicang, he also serves as the deputy governor, and is nominally Chen Pingan's subordinate.

However, these words were just polite talk. Except for the most lowly people with limited vision, no one would really regard him as a subordinate of Chen Ping'an, the Rough Blade.

Apart from anything else, just the one seat on the Joint Office Review Committee would allow him to sit on an equal footing with Chen Pingan.

"You're too polite, Lord Wang." Chen Ping'an had a calm expression and his eyes were peaceful, without any other emotions.

In addition to Wang Lingzhi, Chen Pingan also received a lot of praise from the Canglongzhou Pacification Office.

If Wang Lingzhi is considered the biggest winner in this commendation appointment, then he is the second biggest winner in this commendation process.

Previously, he was the second person in charge of the encirclement and suppression of the evil stronghold. After the encirclement and suppression was successful, he naturally wanted to share a very generous share of the credit.

Strictly speaking, he did not put much effort into this matter. He just dispatched people to assist Wang Lingzhi in the encirclement and suppression.

But as the head of the Beicang Pacification Office and the chief officer of the important town of Beicang, if the people below do their jobs well, it means that he has good overall planning.

In addition, in this game, the Wang family sought benefits for Wang Lingzhi. Similarly, in the Canglongzhou Zhenfu Division, the Gu family also made efforts to obtain a lot of benefits for Chen Pingan, the Gu family's direct son-in-law.

Mang Dao Chen Ping'an has made great contributions in leading the Beicang Pacification Office. He has coordinated all parties and assisted in the encirclement and suppression of the evil strongholds. He has made outstanding contributions to defending Beicang and ensuring the peace of the trade routes.

The Canglongzhou Pacification Office not only bestowed him with an extremely generous merit, but also gave him an excellent review in his registered file, in addition to accumulating qualifications for outstanding merit.

Seniority determines the entry, transfer and departure within the Canglongzhou Zhenfu Division. At Chen Ping'an's level, it is unlikely to be promoted based on this seniority alone. But it is definitely an extremely generous sum, which is equivalent to the daily accumulation of others for 20 to 30 years.

Same years of service, different qualifications.

The amount of seniority depends on daily performance, accumulation of merits, and evaluation results.

With this achievement, although Chen Ping'an has just taken office, he is already equivalent to a candidate for chief who has been working diligently for twenty or thirty years.

In addition, the merits bestowed this time, plus his previous accumulation, made his merits extremely rich. According to the merit exchange system within the State Pacification Division, he could basically customize a special magic weapon.

However, the specific exchange still needs to be determined based on the customization requirements and some details.

Chen Pingan now has a lot of forging materials in his hands, such as the high-level ice crystal stone given by Gu Qingchan, the blazing stone obtained from Zhongli Sheng, and the gifts given by various families in Canglongzhou City before. Some of them he kept include forging materials such as Frost Wind Feather and Blood Yang Iron.

Considering his current accumulation, if he could find another core material for forging, then the treasures needed to forge divine weapons would basically be complete. Even if there were any missing, they would only be those secondary auxiliary materials and some less important ordinary materials.

However, Chen Pingan now has enough magic weapons on him, and he has no intention of forging new magic weapons.

Even if it is to be forged, it must at least be a powerful divine weapon. Otherwise, it is meaningless.

As for ordinary magic weapons, he can hardly keep up with them even now, let alone in the future.

Therefore, Chen Pingan mainly wanted to exchange the merits in the State Pacification Office for a martial arts inheritance.

The martial arts he secretly inherited were basically complete, but there were still many shortcomings in the open.

Wandering Dragon Body Skill, Soul-Breaking Sword Skill, Tyrant Sword
When fighting, I mainly rely on these three magical skills. I have both body skills and attack skills, but I still lack one for defense. As for spirituality, it is not needed in the short term.

The Tyrant Will of the Tyrant Sword also involves some spiritual uses. Although it is not as direct as the spiritual secrets, when you comprehend it, you can also change and improve your spiritual defense through the Tyrant Will. In addition, if you can cultivate the Tyrant Sword to a high level, when you use the secret techniques, the attack will also involve killing the spiritual level.

"Protective skills!" A hint of calculation emerged in the depths of Chen Ping'an's eyes.

His current accumulated merits can be exchanged for a complete version of the top-level protective magic, but.
With his current martial arts realm, practicing top-level magic skills would still be of great help. But it can be foreseen that after practicing for a period of time, as his martial arts realm improves, the help from top-level magic skills will become ineffective and gradually disappear.

Just like practicing ordinary magic skills now, even if you practice from the entry level to perfection, it is difficult to engrave a spiritual pattern.

At his current level of strength, what he really needs is supreme magical power!
Even later on, ordinary supreme magical skills can hardly provide effective assistance, and will gradually become higher-level requirements.

"hold on."

Chen Ping'an thought for a while and made a decision.

His progress in martial arts was beyond the imagination of ordinary people. To say that he made rapid progress was too slow.

Instead of just exchanging for a top-notch magical skill now, it is better to accumulate more merits and exchange for an unparalleled magical skill in the future.

Besides, the strength he has shown now is sufficient.

Even if there is an emergency, the Domineering Sword of the Minor Success Level is enough to deal with many troubles.

"Sir~"

Chen Ping'an had just returned to his own house and was about to go into his room to practice when he saw Li Xiangjun walking towards him in a graceful manner.

Li Xiangjun today is very different from the past. She is wearing a light pink Confucian skirt and a gauze dress as thin as a cicada's wing. Her makeup is gorgeous, like a peach blossom blooming in spring, revealing shyness and charm.

"What's the matter?"

Chen Pingan turned his head slightly and looked at Li Xiangjun calmly.

"My lord~" Li Xiangjun walked closer with light steps: "You have been working hard for many days, why don't I help you relax."

Before Chen Ping'an could react, Li Xiangjun gently stroked his chest.

Sniffing the subtle fragrance of Li Xiangjun, Chen Pingan said calmly: "I still have important matters to deal with in this town, so I'll talk about it another day!"

"Sir, I won't disturb you." Li Xiangjun tilted her head slightly, her big watery eyes making people feel pity.

"No need."

Chen Pingan remained unmoved and left.

Li Xiangjun's watery eyes suddenly widened, her eyes were full of surprise, the smile on her face froze, and she looked at Chen Ping'an's back in disbelief.

Is this... a failure?
Li Xiangjun felt a little ashamed and angry, her cheeks flushed, and she felt inexplicably embarrassed and angry.

Chen Pingan was unmoved by her carefully prepared seduction.

For her, it was not only a failure of her plan, but also a serious blow to her self-confidence.

Are you really tired of it?

But it was only once!

Li Xiangjun began to doubt her life.

The Ten Thousand Demons Body Forging Technique was about to be perfected, and Chen Pingan had no intention of playing with Li Xiangjun.

Li Xiangjun came to him on her own initiative, obviously with other purposes.

But it doesn’t matter what the purpose is. The most urgent task is to cultivate the true body of Ten Thousand Demons as soon as possible.

With the true body of Ten Thousand Demons, he finally had the confidence to lead the charge. Even if the battle was unfavorable and he could not defeat the opponent, he still had the ability to save his life.

"There's no secret meditation room, and the conditions are still a bit rudimentary!"

Chen Pingan glanced around the room and sighed slightly in his heart.

Without much delay, he sat down cross-legged.

The next moment, the spiritual light between the eyebrows began to flicker.

hum~
As the true essence circulates, it is pulled and transported by spiritual power.

In the next two days, Wang Lingzhi, who also served as the deputy commander of Beicang, behaved quite arrogantly.

After a brief meeting with Chen Ping'an, he began to summon the top leaders of various government offices.

He seems to be very familiar with the official duties of the Beicang Pacification Office!
The commendation from the provincial pacification office, the promotion in rank, the praise from his family, and his reputation in the business world all made him feel a little flattered.

Despite the reminders and suggestions from his family, Wang Lingzhi still insisted on doing things his own way when Chen Pingan did not express his opinion.

Although Wang Lingzhi acted a bit arrogant, Chen Pingan had no intention of paying attention to Wang Lingzhi for the time being.

Firstly, although Wang Lingzhi was floating, he still had nominal procedures and regulations to rely on. Secondly, in the past few days, Chen Pingan was concentrating on the Ten Thousand Demons Body Forging Technique, and he could put aside other non-important matters.

Of course, the most critical point is that Wang Lingzhi did not really touch Chen Ping'an's bottom line. What he did now was to rely on the title of deputy garrison commander to familiarize himself with the official duties of the Beicang Pacification Division and the operation and cooperation between the various offices.

The interests and power of the important town of Beicang are still in the hands of Chen Pingan.

Holding all the power is not just an empty talk.

Wang Lingzhi won't be able to survive for many days.

In the room, Chen Pingan sat cross-legged.

With the circulation of his true energy, he looked like a dream.

The Ten Thousand Demons Body Forging Technique, which was perfectly comprehended by the golden finger panel, did not have the overwhelming demonic energy and bloody evil that would occur in normal practice. Instead, it had an extremely special calming effect.

+1!

A trace of cultivation experience flashed before him.

hum~
The light trembled, the spiritual light dimmed, and Chen Pingan slowly opened his eyes.

His eyes focused slightly, and a golden finger panel appeared.

Name: Chen Pingan
Realm: Late Yuheng - Spiritual Patterns and Spiritual Fruits (six patterns)
武学：七杀天罡拳入门（0/1440）、霸刀小成（0/1280）、七绝神功大成（0/4800）、万魔铸身诀大成（3200/3200）、游龙身法圆满、金刚不坏神功圆满、龙象霸体诀圆满、三分人劫指圆满
"The Ten Thousand Demons Body Forging Technique is complete, only today!"

Chen Ping'an's expression was calm, with a hint of excitement flickering in his eyes.

(End of this chapter)
