More children, more blessings, starting from marrying a wife to fight for world hegemony

The capital city, the Fan residence.

The Fan residence was unusually lively today.

A man dressed in a black robe led a group of high-ranking officials from the Zhengui Division to the Fan residence.

After entering the Fan residence, the group went straight to the room of the male master of the house. Fan Yaodong was lying on the bed with a pale face, looking like he was on the verge of death.

He Dongqi frowned when he saw Fan Yaodong's appearance.

Just then, Fan Yaodong started coughing violently. His son quickly supported him, saying, "Dad, are you alright? I'll go get a doctor right away."

Fan Yaodong quickly raised his hand to stop him, saying, "It's alright, I can still manage."

At this point, Fan Yaodong looked up and glanced at He Dongqi and the other high-ranking members of the Zhengui Division.

At this moment, He Dongqi and a group of high-ranking officials from the Zhengui Division saluted Fan Yaodong, saying, "Greetings, Commander!"

Fan Yaodong covered his chest and slightly raised his hand, indicating that they should dispense with formalities.

At this moment, He Dongqi walked to the bedside and asked, "Lord Fan, how did you get so badly injured?"

Fan Yaodong said, "The wolf demon that attacked the Liu residence last night was at least at the mid-stage of the Earth Realm. If I hadn't sensed something was wrong and quickly burned my blood and qi, you probably wouldn't be seeing me now."

Upon hearing this, the faces of the high-ranking members of the Zhengui Division turned solemn. They had also heard from the Zhengui Guards who returned last night that the wolf demon had knocked down all the commanders who had besieged it last night with a single blow.

After Fan Yaodong made his move, he fought the wolf demon to a standstill. If Fan Yaodong hadn't burned his life force at the end, the Zhengui Guards who went to Liu's mansion last night would probably have been wiped out.

Hearing Fan Yaodong's words, He Dongqi's expression was extremely serious, but he felt very fortunate. He was supposed to lead the team to Liu's residence last night, but Fan Yaodong said he hadn't stretched his muscles in a long time, so Fan Yaodong personally led the team to Liu's residence instead.

Unexpectedly, the casualties of the Zhengui Division were so severe this time.

Most importantly, not only did the Zhengui Division suffer heavy casualties, but Fan Yaodong also failed to capture the wolf demon, allowing it to escape.

That wolf demon is capable of harming beings at the Earth Realm level. If we just let it get away like that, who knows what shocking crimes it will commit in the capital next.

Allowing such a strange and evil spirit to commit such a serious crime in the capital is a dereliction of duty by the Bureau of Suppression of Evil Spirits and by Commander Fan Yaodong. Soon, someone in the court will impeach Fan Yaodong, and he will probably lose his position as commander.

Thinking of this, He Dongqi felt a little smug. However, at this moment, Fan Yaodong looked at He Dongqi and took the initiative to say, "Deputy Commander He, I am seriously injured. However, the Zhengui Division cannot be without a leader for a day. Moreover, that wolf demon is still causing trouble in the capital. Therefore, the Zhengui Division will be temporarily handed over to you."

He Dongqi immediately said, "Lord Fan, rest assured, I will definitely lead the Zhengui Division to kill that wolf demon as soon as possible and avenge Lord Fan and all my colleagues."

"Lord Fan, please rest assured and recover from your injuries. We hope you can recover soon and return to the Zhengui Division to take charge of the overall situation."

As soon as He Dongqi finished speaking, Fan Yaodong sighed deeply and said, "Deputy Commander He, I am responsible for such a serious incident. In addition, I am seriously injured and the spiritual energy in my body is showing signs of backlash. Therefore, I have already submitted a memorial to His Majesty, intending to resign from my position as Commander of the Zhengui Division. I entrust the Zhengui Division to you and your colleagues from now on."

This……

Upon hearing Fan Yaodong's words, He Dongqi and the high-ranking officials of the Zhengui Division present were stunned. They did not expect that Fan Yaodong would voluntarily resign from his position as commander of the Zhengui Division.

It's important to know that the position of Deputy Commander of the Town of Demons and Ghosts wields immense power, making it a coveted position among various factions in the capital. A hint of suspicion flashed across He Dongqi's face. He suspected Fan Yaodong was testing him, deliberately saying these words to see if he coveted the position.

After regaining his senses, He Dongqi quickly said, "Lord Fan, you mustn't! The Zhen Gui Si has achieved its current scale and strength entirely because of Lord Fan's wise leadership. Without Lord Fan, the Zhen Gui Si would probably soon become like before, unable to shoulder great responsibilities."

As soon as He Dongqi finished speaking, the other high-ranking officials of the Zhengui Division also offered their advice.

"Lord Fan, this incident is not your fault. No one could have imagined that evil spirits from the Earth Realm would intrude into the capital."

"Yes, Lord Fan, you don't need to blame yourself. As long as our Zhengui Division can kill that wolf demon as soon as possible, I believe no one in the court will say anything."

"My lord, the Bureau of Demon Suppression cannot do without you!"

"My lord, please reconsider!"

……

Hearing these people's advice, He Dongqi's face darkened. He knew that most of the people in the Zhen Gui Si were now loyal to Fan Yaodong, since most of the current high-ranking officials in the Zhen Gui Si were promoted by Fan Yaodong.

Just when He Dongqi thought Fan Yaodong was unlikely to resign, Fan Yaodong interrupted everyone's advice, "Gentlemen, you don't need to persuade me anymore. My mind is made up. Someone has to take responsibility for this matter, and I personally led the team to suppress the wolf demons, so naturally I will be in charge."

"I have already submitted my resignation to His Majesty, and I believe the imperial decree will be issued soon. In addition, I have recommended Deputy Commander He to His Majesty as the new Commander of the Zhengui Division. From now on, everyone should assist Deputy Commander He well."

Seeing Fan Yaodong's resolute attitude, He Dongqi and the other high-ranking members of the Zhengui Division were stunned again, especially He Dongqi, who could hardly believe what he was hearing.

Over the years, he had been engaged in a power struggle with Fan Yaodong, and he had always wanted to bring Fan Yaodong down. However, he did not expect that Fan Yaodong would take the initiative to resign from his position as commander.

Is Fan Yaodong really that good?
With such great power as the Commander of the Town Deception Bureau, would Fan Yaodong really just give it up so easily?

He Dongqi glanced at Fan Yaodong with suspicion. Seeing Fan Yaodong's near-death appearance, He Dongqi wondered if the wolf demon last night had really seriously injured Fan Yaodong, making Fan Yaodong feel that the Zhengui Division was too dangerous, so he wanted to step down.

The position of Commander of the Town of Demons and Monsters indeed has great power, but it also carries great responsibility. For example, if an evil spirit from the underworld were to infiltrate the capital, Fan Yaodong would certainly be punished. Of course, even if he were punished, it wouldn't be by stripping him of his official robes.

While He Dongqi was lost in thought, Fan Yaodong suddenly said, "Except for Deputy Commander He, all of you may leave first. I have a few words to say to Deputy Commander He."

Upon hearing this, the higher-ups of the Zhengui Division looked at each other, and finally they all bowed to Fan Yaodong before leaving the room.

After everyone else had left, Fan Yaodong looked at He Dongqi and said, "Deputy Commander He, I know you've been eyeing this position for a long time."

He Dongqi quickly asked, "What does Lord Fan mean by this?"

Fan Yaodong said with a smile, "You don't need to deny it. People always strive for higher positions, and I don't see anything wrong with that."

"I have been in this position for so many years and I am already tired of it. I only hope that after I leave, you will treat my old subordinates well, after all, they are the backbone of the Zhengui Division."

Seeing that Fan Yaodong had said such things, He Dongqi was basically certain that Fan Yaodong really wanted to leave the Zhengui Division. So he immediately said, "Lord Fan, I am not a narrow-minded person. Besides, as Lord Fan said, they are the backbone of the Zhengui Division. The Zhengui Division will need to rely on them to suppress the strange and evil spirits that are causing trouble in the Great Zhou in the future."

Fan Yaodong smiled slightly. "With your words, I am relieved. Then I congratulate Lord He on becoming the new commander of the Zhengui Division." (End of Chapter)
