This martial artist just wants to be an official

Chapter 340: Promotion.

After Lu Yuanzhi finished cleaning up, he changed into a brand new official uniform and walked towards the Yinwu Hall.

Along the way, I also met many people from Pei Yinlang who greeted him and saluted him.

He naturally responded with a smile.

After staying in Peiyinlang Yamen for so long, Lu Yuanzhi's reputation has already spread throughout the Yamen.

After arriving at Yinwu Hall, Lu Yuanzhi went up to the top floor without hesitation and was about to knock on the door.

"come in."

Ji Xuan's elegant voice sounded.

Lu Yuanzhi pushed the door open and saw Cai Ji Xuan sitting leisurely at the table, still holding a teapot, brewing fragrant tea.

"I have met Mr. Ji. Happy New Year."

Lu Yuanzhi smiled and saluted Ji Xuan.

"sit down."

Ji Xuan looked up at him and continued to make tea with his head down.

Lu Yuanzhi was not restrained and sat down generously. He flipped through the book and pulled out a box of tea leaves from his scripture space.

"Ji Gong, try this? This is good stuff."

Ji Xuan glanced at him while he was focusing on making tea, and a smile flashed in his eyes:
"That old tea tree on Wuqi Mountain?"

Then he reached out and opened the box. After seeing the tea leaves inside, he nodded with satisfaction and said:
"Excellent Wuqi Laocha, the people from the Taoist sect are very generous to you."

Lu Yuanzhi scratched his head sheepishly and smiled:
"The Taoist Holy Son left it with me when he came to see me. He didn't ask me for it afterwards, and I didn't mention giving it back to him."

"hehe."

Ji Xuan opened the tea leaves in the box with a wooden handle, gently picked up about half of them, and put them into the boiled teapot.

"I haven't tasted it for a long time. Let's try it today."

Lu Yuanzhi groaned and pushed the whole box of tea to Ji Xuandao:
"My subordinates don't understand tea either. Letting me drink it is like a cow chewing peonies. If people know that I have such good tea, it will cause trouble. Please just put aside this trouble."

Hearing Lu Yuanzhi's words, a smile flashed in Ji Xuan's eyes:
"You boy."

"hey-hey."

Of course Lu Yuanzhi knew that Ji Gong could see the bribery in his words, but based on his understanding of Ji Gong, what he sent would definitely not embarrass him.

Ji Xuan gently closed the lid of the tea box, placed the tea box side by side with his teapot, and looked up at Lu Yuanzhi:
“Things went well in this competition.”

Lu Yuan was stunned, thinking that I haven't reported to you yet...

"You know everything?"

Lu Yuanzhi asked with a smile.

Ji Xuan nonchalantly cleared the tea foam from the pot and said casually:
"The son of the demon emperor was killed with his sword, and he overpowered Song Yu, the chief of things. The sword was pointed at the neck of Taoist Lu Ziyu. How could I not receive such important news?"

"It's just a pity that I didn't come to the scene in person and couldn't see Lu Yunpei's style."

Hearing Ji Xuan's words, Lu Yuanzhi's pupils shrank sharply.

He and his men, Pei Yinlang, rushed back as soon as the competition ended. They were definitely the first group of people to come from the foot of Wuqi Mountain.

From what Ji Gong meant, he must have received the news in advance.

Who can convey the news to Ji Gong before he arrives? ?

It seems that Pei Yinlang's power is definitely not as simple as he imagined.

There are also people of Ji Gong in Wuqi Mountain.

Thinking of this, Lu Yuanzhi no longer hesitated. He knelt on the ground and clasped his fist at Ji Xuan:
"You can also ask Duke Ji for forgiveness."

Hearing Lu Yuanzhi's words, Ji Xuan raised his eyes slightly and asked with a flashing smile:

"Oh? What are you guilty of?"

Lu Yuanzhi lowered his head in shame:
"Without the consent of my manager, I went on stage without authorization and killed the demon prince Chao Yue with all his will..."

Ji Xuan's smile became even stronger:
"The one who killed him was not me, Peiyin Lang Yunpei and Lu Yuanzhi, but Qinghe Academy Hai Wuyan's cousin Lu Yuanzhi."

Hearing Ji Xuan's words, cold sweat broke out on Lu Yuanzhi's back.

Unexpectedly, Ji Gong even knew this. Fortunately, he apologized in advance and did not brush the matter over.

"Please Ji Gong punish your subordinates for leaving their posts without permission and dereliction of duty."

Lu Yuanzhi's face was full of sincerity.

"Dereliction of duty is not a serious crime."

Ji Xuan shook his head lightly, picked up two cups, placed one in front of himself and the other in front of where Lu Yuanzhi was sitting just now, picked up the kettle and filled both cups at the same time.

After hearing Ji Xuan's words, Lu Yuanzhi's hanging heart was secretly relieved.

"sit down."

"Thank you Jigong."

Lu Yuanzhi stood up and sat back down.

Ji Xuan expressionlessly placed the cup that he poured tea for Lu Yuanzhi in front of him and said calmly:
"I just beheaded the demon clan's envoy without permission and seriously injured him, but I committed a crime of misconduct."

Hearing this, Lu Yuanzhi, who was taking the cup, suddenly trembled.

The next moment, he looked at Ji Xuan with a horrified face and said in silence:

"Seriously injured??!"

He did not forget that after he expanded the time domain, he chopped off all five limbs and head of Chaoyue.

How could it be just a serious injury? ?
"Yes, it's a serious injury."

After Ji Xuan put the tea in the cup to his mouth and took a sip, his face became much more relaxed and he sighed slowly:
"It's really good tea."

"Ji Gong, that Chao Yue was clearly captured by me..."

Lu Yuanzhi was not in the mood to drink tea at this time. He looked at Ji Xuan in confusion.

Ji Xuan shook his head and smiled. He looked at Lu Yuanzhi and said:

"You don't know much about the demon emperor's body of the demon clan. Then Chaoyue comes from the demon clan's orthodox royal bloodline. How can the demon emperor's body be that simple?"

When Lu Yuanzhi heard this, he calmed down and said solemnly:

"Please ask Mr. Ji to clear up my doubts."

"Haha, it's actually not a secret."

Ji Xuan's eyes held a hint of memory:
"The demon emperor's body has the power of regeneration. I think you must have experienced it when you fought with it."

Lu Yuanzhi nodded solemnly:
"At that time, my subordinate cut off his arm, and he took advantage of my unpreparedness and swallowed the arm back into his stomach. It grew back again within a moment."

"Haha, this is the uniqueness of the Demon Emperor's body."

Ji Xuan looked at Lu Yuanzhi and slowly explained:
"The demon emperor's body has no cover. Even if its head is cut off, as long as it is given enough time, it can recover. Although its vitality is severely damaged, its weirdness makes others frightened."

Hearing Ji Xuan's words, Lu Yuanzhi took a deep breath.

"The third level of martial arts is inspired by the body of the Demon Emperor of the Demon Clan."

Ji Xuan's eyes became a little dazed.

This was the first time Lu Yuanzhi heard Ji Xuan explain martial arts to him.

Now that the words have reached this point, there is no reason not to ask for advice.

"Third grade martial arts..."

Lu Yuanzhi murmured, then bowed to Ji Xuan seriously and said:
"Ji Gong, I have been to the fourth rank for a long time, but I still have no clue about the third rank above the fourth rank. Please give me some advice."

Ji Xuan looked at Lu Yuanzhi with a half-smile:
"How long has it been since you reached the fourth level?"

Lu Yuanzhi said seriously:

"It has been three months since I was fully satisfied. This state has troubled my subordinates for the longest time since entering the first grade."

…………

Three months...

Ji Xuan took a deep breath, resisting the urge to hit someone, and said expressionlessly:

"The most important thing to avoid when entering the martial arts is to rush too far. After only three months, I'm afraid I haven't even fully mastered the power of the domain, and I'm still talking about the third level..."

Lu Yuanzhi looked at Ji Xuandi doubtfully and said:
"With the power of the domain, my subordinates have no way to advance... When used in the extreme cold domain, compared to the cold... it is even worse than Shangguan Yunpei." Ji Xuan frowned, thinking that Lu Yuanzhi had seen it before. The most talented martial arts prodigy suppressed the twitching in his heart and said calmly:

"Just do it."

Lu Yuanzhi hummed, his eyes extremely serious:

"Thousands of miles of ice!"

As he spoke, an extremely biting chill spread throughout Ji Xuan's sex room.

Feeling the coldness, Ji Xuan's eyes flashed with surprise.

An expert knows the way.

As Dayong's only third-grade martial artist, Ji Xuan's eyesight is much higher than Lu Yuanzhi's.

Although it was just a simple expansion of the field, he could tell at a glance that the follow-up of this field was no worse than Shangguan's.

It has even exceeded a lot.

"Shangguan has been practicing hard for ten years, but he can't compare to this kid's few months of hard work?"

Ji Xuan thought to himself.

Although this was not the first time he was shocked by Lu Yuanzhi's talent, his eyes were opened by this extremely skilled ice field.

"How is it? Mr. Ji, my subordinate didn't lie, did he?"

After Lu Yuanzhi took over the domain, he looked at Ji Xuan cautiously and asked.

After hearing Lu Yuanzhi's words, Ji Xuan took a deep breath and said expressionlessly:

"The progress is indeed not small."

"hey-hey."

Lu Yuanzhi smiled and waited quietly for Ji Xuan to continue.

"However, crossing the fourth grade to the third grade is not that easy to cross."

Ji Xuan's voice became deeper, and he looked out the window, his eyes shining brightly:

"The difficulties and obstacles involved are more than just words. It requires not only great perseverance, but also unparalleled luck."

Lu Yuanzhi respectfully pays homage:
"Please also ask Mr. Ji to clear up my subordinates' doubts."

"Do you know the difference between the third grade and the fourth grade?"

Ji Xuan looked at Lu Yuanzhi indifferently.

Lu Yuanzhi muttered without hesitation:

"Ji Gong just said that the inspiration for the third level of martial arts was found in the body of the demon emperor of the demon clan. My subordinates have also fought against Chao Yue, who has the body of the demon emperor, and I know how difficult it is."

"I guess it's about resilience?"

At the same time, Lu Yuanzhi thought that in Hangzhou that day, King Yu recovered his true form with just a drop of blood from the Sword of Dayong's Fortune...

"Rebirth with blood..."

Lu Yuanzhi murmured softly.

Hearing Lu Yuanzhi's words, Ji Xuan's eyes narrowed, then he nodded lightly and said:
"Exactly, if a fourth-grade warrior wants to advance to third-grade, what he needs is to completely control every part of the human body, including your blood."

Having said this, Ji Xuan paused and continued slowly:

"Unlike the fifth-level breath gathering realm, which requires you to master the power of every part of the body, the third-level realm requires you not only to master the power, but every drop of blood, every inch of skin, and every hair in the body."

Hearing this, Lu Yuanzhi felt like he was listening to a book from heaven.

Master your own blood? ?

And skin?

Hair? ?
This sounds almost like nonsense.

"Before you can master these, you need the assistance of extremely huge life force."

Ji Xuan looked at Lu Yuan's approach:

"The reason why I was promoted to the third level is because of my luck. During the battle of Yumen Pass twenty years ago, I obtained the treasure of the leader of Southern Xinjiang. After refining it, I slowly broke through."

Hearing this, Lu Yuanzhi sighed secretly. He looked up at Ji Xuan and asked:

"If my subordinate's guess is correct, the great luck you mentioned, Ji Gong, is to obtain a treasure related to the power of life, or a spiritual root?"

A trace of surprise flashed in Ji Xuan's eyes, then he nodded and said:

"Of course."

That's fine.

Lu Yuanzhi sighed secretly, how could such a treasure be so easy to obtain?

Ordinary people may never see it once in their lifetime.

"Then just wait for the opportunity..."

Lu Yuanzhi sighed, but he quickly suppressed his depression, looked up at Ji Xuando and said:
"Ji Gong, that day you Black Eagle sent a message to your subordinates to win the Dao Sect Competition. They fulfilled their mission, but they don't know the reason..."

Ji Xuan slowly poured himself another cup of tea. After taking a sip, he nodded and said:
"I think you got the Jade-Eyed Eagle's egg?"

Lu Yuanzhi did not hesitate, and took out the three treasures obtained during the competition that were placed in his scripture space, and placed them on Ji Xuan's table one by one.

They are Jing Qin Sword.

Green-eyed eagle eggs.

And that Chiyan lotus seed.

Seeing these three treasures, Ji Xuan did not move, but looked at Lu Yuanzhi:

"The imperial court wants this blue-eyed golden eagle's egg to be of great use."

Hearing Ji Xuan's explanation, Lu Yuanzhi frowned slightly. Although he knew that Ji Gong's decision to win the first prize was probably related to these three treasures, he had thought about everything except why Ji Gong only wanted these three treasures. The most useless looking egg...

Of course he knew that after the egg of the blue-eyed golden eagle hatched, it would not be long before he would get a partner with fifth-level combat power.

But how can the imperial court lack the combat power of a martial arts master?
Look at Lu Yuanzhi's doubtful eyes.

Ji Xuan smiled lightly and said casually:
"The demon clan comes to envoy Dayong. If I, Dayong, don't return the gift, wouldn't it be disrespectful?"

With that said, he put the egg on the table into his mustard space.

Although it was just a faint sentence, Lu Yuanzhi's pupils immediately shrank.

Of course he understood.

I think this egg is a relatively important part of Ji Gong's plan...

He didn't dare to ask any more questions and just nodded silently.

Ji Xuan continued to laugh:

"You can take the remaining two things back. They are your own things originally. This Jingqin Sword is not as simple as it seems. If you go back and explore it, you may not be surprised."

Lu Yuanzhi nodded solemnly and took it back into his scripture space.

"Of course the imperial court won't ask for your egg in vain, so I'll give it to you."

Ji Xuan casually took out a document from his sleeve.

Lu Yuanzhi took it with a blank expression, looked at the content on it, and his hand suddenly shook.

"This……"

Lu Yuanzhi looked at Ji Xuan in shock.

"Haha, I fought for you."

The corners of Ji Xuan's mouth curled up slightly, and it was obvious that he benefited from the shocked expression on Lu Yuanzhi's face.

It is written clearly on the document:

"This is to confer the title of County Count to Lu Yuan, the son of Qinghe County, with a real title of 800 cities."

If there is no mistake in the above document.

Then he, Lu Yuanzhi, was promoted again? ?
