Chapter 79 I have a feeling that you seem to have a great affinity with Yuzhao Temple
Luyang Prefecture, East City Gate.

A large notice was posted.

Many passers-by gathered around.

"Is this the announcement about what happened in the city last night? That killing was really brutal last night."

"Let's see if martial law is going to be implemented. If it is, we'll have to find a way to run our business."

A group of people gathered around, and those who could read read out the words on the notice while shaking their heads.

"This is a letter to the people."

"To deter evildoers and protect the peace of Luyang."

"The Wuwei Yamen has been expanded, with a lieutenant and a military supervisor."

"Recruiting two hundred ninth-rank guards from the Wuwei Yamen..."

Those who were well-informed had already known that the Wuwei Yamen was going to expand.

But this matter is just a conversation after dinner and has nothing to do with most people.

Looking at the notice now, it turned out that the entire Luyang Prefecture was recruiting soldiers, regardless of household registration.

"Tsk, it seems the Wuwei Yamen is really short of people. With a salary of one tael and five coins, who is going to be the Zaoyi Guard?"

"That's right, if you wear that black dog skin, you will be under someone's control."

The person who spoke looked around, but his feet were moving towards the city.

More people's eyes flashed.

In any case, one tael and five cents of silver a month is enough to live a good life in Luyang Prefecture.

Moreover, the Wuwei Yamen of Luyang Prefecture has become quite influential recently. It has handled several major cases and has accumulated a lot of reputation.

The blood from the killing last night hasn't dried yet.

Luyang Prefecture Government Office.

Zhang Yuan, wearing the black robe of a sixth-rank military officer, stood in the lobby. Next to him was the smiling judge He Jin and several government officials.

The prefect Yu Hualin, who was sitting at the top, was flipping through a book with a smile on his face.

"I originally wanted to expand the Wuwei Yamen. With so much shortage of supplies and armor, how will the county government handle it?"

"Look now, with this military achievement, the county government should remain silent."

"If they dare to hold up the supplies, I will personally challenge them."

Closing the book, the prefect looked at Zhang Yuan.

"Captain Zhang, neither I nor the others from the government office were present last night. Are we a little disappointed with the credit for commanding the battlefield and making strategic plans?"

Following Zhao Yu's instructions, Zhang Yuan included the names of the prefect, the judge, and several other officials who could be involved in the report on his military achievements.

Sure enough, the prefect's expression and attitude now tell it all.

"Your Excellency, we captured 37 spies from Northern Yan who entered the city. This kind of case would be unacceptable if it weren't for the strategic planning of you gentlemen."

"I, Zhang Yuan, dare not bear the responsibility for acting on my own, and you gentlemen do not want to be blamed for an oversight for no reason."

Zhang Yuan's words made everyone stunned at first, and then they all smiled and nodded.

If Zhang Yuan took all the credit for such a big case to the Wuwei Yamen, he would have no answer when the censor asked him how he could guarantee that the spy could be wiped out without casualties.

If the government officials do not share the credit, they will be held accountable if spies from Northern Yan sneak into the city.

Now, with the endorsement of the city officials, all the credit for the action belongs to everyone.

All are happy.

"No wonder Captain Zhang has the reputation of being righteous and upright. He did a great job..."

After Zhang Yuan left, a fifty-year-old man in a gray martial arts robe in the lobby chuckled and sighed.

"Sir He, with such a person under your command, your future advancement will be a piece of cake." On the other side, someone looked at He Jin and spoke with a smile.

He Jin waved his hand and clasped his fists towards the prefect who sat above him. "Having Zhang Yuan in charge of the Wuwei Yamen will perhaps benefit even our Luyang Prefecture." The prefect chuckled and nodded, stamping the two volumes before him with his seal. "Send them to the county government, expedited."

------------

Dingjia Lane, Zhangjia Courtyard.

In the backyard, a faint golden light flowed around Zhang Yuan, and a golden light curtain appeared in his mind.

【Zhang Yuan】

Identity: Zhang Yuan, Acting Captain of the Wuwei Yamen of Luyang Prefecture, Great Qin; Black Tiger, Captain of the Black Armor of the Black Ice Platform; Black Tiger, the Bounty Hunter; Red Fox, the Commander of the Red Fox Caravan; Zhang Erhe, the Lord of the Eighteen Villages of Qingshan
Cultivation: Late Xiantian Realm, upgrading requires 823 Qi and Blood Pearls, 340 Zhen Yuan Pearls, Grandmaster Tribulation, and Heavenly Opportunity
Martial Arts Practice: Great Perfection of Moving Mountains and Rivers, Great Perfection of Golden Body Kung Fu
Battle Formation: Wolf Formation Great Perfection, Tiger Formation Great Perfection

Chaos Space: 5,100 Qi and Blood Beads, 1,630 Perception Beads, 1,020 True Essence Beads, 220 Demonic Energy Beads, and 35 Buddha Essence Beads
Chaos Support: Not enabled

Killing a powerful warrior in the late stage of the Innate Realm brought Zhang Yuan a huge amount of resources.

The number of Qi and Blood beads, Comprehension beads, and True Essence beads has all increased greatly.

Even the relics in the Dantian emitted a layer of hazy light and shadow, as if they had been purified to a certain level.

The most important thing is that he killed a late-stage Xiantian realm cultivator with just three moves, and he was also a strong man on the Dragon and Tiger List. Zhang Yuan had a clearer understanding of his own strength.

Cultivation, strength, martial arts techniques, martial arts skills, combat experience, all of these combined together are the true personal combat power.

Although Bai Hexing had reached the late stage of the Xiantian realm, the skills he practiced did not do much to enhance and refine his strength.

The martial arts he mastered were also martial arts techniques, which were restrained by Zhang Yuan's powerful sword techniques.

In addition, in terms of combat experience, Bai Hexing's killing experience is far inferior to Zhang Yuan's.

On the other hand, Zhang Yuan's strength training and his own combat experience, with the help of chaos, have reached a terrifying level.

Among all the martial arts masters he had met, none could combine the two like himself, tempering his body to the extreme and cultivating his martial arts to perfection.

"Comprehensive mastery, no weaknesses, coupled with the strongest physical body, this is the limit of combat power..."

The golden light in his mind dissipated, and Zhang Yuan whispered.

Although he did not study martial arts and did not read the classics on cultivation, Zhang Yuan felt that the path he was exploring was correct.

Walking out of the courtyard, the Buddhist girl Yuhuan stepped forward and whispered, "Little Buddha, my senior brother from Yuzhao Temple has come to Luyang Prefecture and wants to see you."

"Don't worry, I didn't reveal your identity, which means you took us in."

A disciple of Yuzhao Temple?

Zhang Yuan is now interested in the Golden Body Technique and the use of the power of relics.

The Golden Body has the power to be invulnerable to swords and guns, and immune to all poisons. If this skill is further improved, to what extent can it reach?
Yuzhao Temple was once a major sect in Liangyuan area, so it must have a lot of skills in its collection.

The disciple from Yuzhao Temple who wanted to see Zhang Yuan was named Ding Yuan.

Among the younger generations in Yuzhao Temple, Ding Yuan has the highest level of cultivation and the most profound research on Buddhism.

This time, Yuzhao Temple sent Ding Yuan to Qin with the intention of letting him gain experience and insights.

When Zhang Yuan saw Ding Yuan in a farmyard outside the city, he saw that his face was a little pale.

However, he is only in his early twenties, with delicate features and a cultivation level of the late acquired realm. He is indeed a rare elite among the younger generation.

"Brother was ambushed by the monks from the White Dragon Temple and fought with a Xiantian realm monk, sustaining some injuries."

Yuhuan stood beside Zhang Yuan and spoke in a low voice.

"I am Ding Yuan, a humble monk. Thank you, Benefactor Zhang, for saving my disciples from Yuzhao Temple."

Ding Yuan clasped his hands together and bowed to Zhang Yuan.

The two middle-aged monks beside him also bowed.

Ding Yuan stood up and looked at Zhang Yuan.

"Donor Zhang, I have a feeling that you seem to have a great affinity with Yuzhao Temple."

As soon as he finished speaking, he took a step forward and slapped Zhang Yuan in the chest.
