Chapter 167: Good News For Workers
Qin Feng recounted the events of the previous night to Cang Feilan once agai. Of course, with some artistic embellishments.
When Si Zheng heard that he was personally appointed by the Southern Domain Commander, even he, the Demon Slayer Chief, showed a hint of shock.
Despite being the Chief of Jinyang City Demon Slayer Department, officials like him were everywhere, and there was no chance for them to intersect with the Southern Domain Commander.
“Kid, if you make it big in the future, don’t forget about me.” Si Zheng joked.
“Of course, of course. Master Si takes such good care of me, so I will naturally never forget it.” Qin Feng replied with a smile.
He sneakily assessed Miss Cang, knowing that, compared to the reaction of a grown man, observing the reaction of a beautiful woman could give a man more satisfaction.
However, to Qin Feng’s disappointment, Cang Feilan showed no signs of shock but rather furrowed her brows slightly, a hint of displeasure and concern crossing her eyes.
Just when he was puzzled, Cang Feilan coldly asked, “You are clearly a scholar practicing Literature Siant. Why would you join a dangerous place such as the Demon Slayer’s Department? Even if it’s an appointment by the Southern Domain Commander, you should be able to refuse.”
“I…” Qin Feng didn’t know how to answer; her reaction was unexpected.
On the side, Lan Ningshuang’s expression was complicated. When Young Master sought her out earlier, she saw this jade token, and her concern was greater than her shock.
Seeing Miss Cang’s reaction now, she became more certain — this person also had Young Master in her heart.
After all, women always had more concerns for someone they cared about.
Si Zheng eased the situation, “The Demon Slayer’s Department in Qiyuan City also said that taking in this kid is just because they value his medical skills. They won’t send him to do the dangerous work of demon-slaying. By the way, kid, Lord Zhou has been waiting inside for a long time; you should go now.”
“Oh, right.” Qin Feng glanced at Cang Feilan, hesitated to speak, then led Lan Ningshuang towards the Demon Slayer’s Department hall.
Cang Feilan still stood in place, gazing at the black-clothed figure, lost in thought.
“If you really can’t rest assured, just accompany him on missions in the future. After all, I don’t have much restraint on subordinates here.” Si Zheng lightly said with a smile.
“I don’t understand what you’re talking about.” Cang Feilan responded lightly, then turned and left.
“Not understanding is best, but let me remind you, he is now a demon slayer holding the Green Jade Token. If you want to go on missions with him, at least you should be a demon slayer of the same level. Your Three-Star Wood Token falls a bit short.” Si Zheng suddenly reminded.
Cang Feilan paused at his words, “I’ve made some breakthroughs in strength recently and was just thinking of getting a new token for myself. What do I need to do to get the Green Jade Token?”
“Generally speaking, to get the Green Jade Token, both strength and achievements are indispensable. After all, it’s a proof equivalent to a Grade Six Military Officer in The Great Qian. Specifically, you can go and ask the recordkeeper.” Si Zheng said with a half-smile.
“Okay.”
Shi Ziming watched Cang Feilan walk into the hall, obviously going to find the recordkeeper, and couldn’t help but stroke his chin, murmuring, “I really envy that stinky kid.
So many beautiful women around him.
Hmm, no, I can’t neglect myself either. Tonight, I’ll go to the brothel and catch up with Xiao Ya.”
Entering the hall, when he saw Lord Zhou Kai, the formalities for the appointment were handled very quickly.
Qin Feng even had a kind of illusion that the efficiency of the other party was so high because he was afraid he might change his mind.
With everything settled, Zhou Kai said, “Kid, drop a drop of blood onto your Jade Green token.”
Seeing the other’s confusion, he explained, “To prevent someone from impersonating others and infiltrating the Demon Slayer Department.
Each Demon Slayer token requires the holder to drop blood to acknowledge ownership.”
Qin Feng nodded understandingly, then gathered a drop of blood on the tip of his right finger and cut a small opening.
The blood dripped onto the Green Jade token, and it seemed as if it had fallen into the water, creating a faint ripple of blue light.
Qin Feng vaguely felt a special connection with this Green Jade token.
“That’s it.” Zhou Kai smiled and said, “Because you are a scholar of the Literature Saint Dao Lineage and your strength is weak, you don’t need to intervene if there are demons causing trouble in the area on ordinary days; someone else will take care of it.
But if a colleague is injured and needs treatment, you will be responsible.”
“No problem.” Qin Feng then asked, “So, I don’t need to stay in the Demon Slayer Department on regular days?”
“Just come to the Demon Slayer Department once a day; you can arrange the rest of your time yourself.” Zhou Kai replied.
In other words, as long as you come to check in, you can do whatever you want. If it were the previous life, it would be a celebration for the working class.
Qin Feng felt a sigh in his heart, thinking of those days in 1996, his eyes were a little moist.
“Also, you were personally appointed by the Southern Domain Commader, so there is no need to test your strength and achievements. You directly obtained the Green Jade token.
In the Demon Slayer Department, the higher the level of the token you hold, the more attention and cultivation you will receive.
You should know that there are quite a few high-ranking martial warriors and ghost practitioners in the Demon Slayer Department.
If you have a need for cultivation resources or encounter problems in your practice, you can get help.
So work hard, the Demon Slayer Department won’t let you down.” Zhou Kai, as usual when a newcomer entered the Demon Slayer Department, skillfully painted a rosy picture for the other party.
Qin Feng nodded slightly, then seemed to think of something, “But I practice the Way of the Literature Saint Dao Lineage, and there are also high-ranking Literature Saints in the Demon Slayer Department. Can they guide my practice and enlighten me?”
Zhou Kai fell into contemplation and looked to the sides.
Yang He turned his head away, while Zhang Tiannan did not look sideways.
This question was really hard to answer.
So Zhou Kai ignored it and chose the easy way out, “Of course, if you don’t need guidance in your practice, you can also exchange for treasures or gold and silver through merits.”
“Hmm?” Qin Feng was a bit confused. I didn’t say I didn’t need it.
“Lord Zhou, actually…”
Before Qin Feng could finish speaking, Zhou Kai interrupted, “Alright, the current situation in Jinyang City is complicated, and there’s much work to be done. If you have any questions, ask Yang He and Zhang Tiannan; they will guide you.”
Yang He and Zhang Tiannan were dumbfounded upon hearing this.
“What are you two standing there for? Take him downstairs and get familiar with the environment of the Demon Slayer Department,” Zhou Kai said in a stern voice.
“Yes.”
Cursing the shameless old man in their hearts, Yang He and Zhang Tiannan led Qin Feng and Lan Ningshuang out of the hall.
“Brother Qin, don’t expect to get guidance in the Demon Slayer Department, especially in the way of the Literary Saint. As far as I know, among the Demon Slayer Departments in the Southern Region, you are the only one practicing the Literary Saint’s path.” Yang He truthfully stated.
Zhang Tiannan nodded beside him.
Qin Feng had long guessed this outcome. He knew there were few Literary Saints in the Demon Slayer Department, but there was still a trace of hope in his heart.
“It seems that if I want guidance, the only way is through the Grand Literature Academy in Imperial City,” Qin Feng thought with a sigh.
“By the way, I heard that the elder of the Divine Workshop is also in the Demon Slayer Department. I have a task commissioned by someone, and I need him to handle it. Can you take me to see him?”
Yang He and Zhang Tiannan looked at each other before saying, “Follow us.”
