Chapter 923: Chapter 921: External Envoy
Only Chu Hao didn’t kneel; he was a bit puzzled. Is General Nanweng Wafu really that powerful?
White Impermanence tugged at Chu Hao and said, "Hurry and kneel, this is the Myriarch’s command."
Chu Hao finally got down on one knee.
"Chu Hao of the Yang Realm, you have made meritorious achievements in the Manggu Battlefield and are hereby appointed as External Envoy."
Everyone was startled!
Chu Hao was stunned.
This is the rhythm of getting an official position!
White Impermanence exclaimed in delight, "External Envoy, quickly thank Lord Miao."
Chu Hao said, "Thank you, Lord."
Lord Miao took out a token and gave it to Chu Hao, saying, "This is the appointment token for External Envoy."
Chu Hao accepted it, a black ink stone token, with golden letters, looking very high-end and atmospheric, with the words ’External Envoy’ on it.
Seeing the envious expressions of the ghost cultivators and other Netherworld soldiers around him, Chu Hao thought,
Could it be that my official position is very high!
Chu Hao laughed heartily and said, "Small Netherworld soldiers, you dare to touch me? I’m now an External Envoy, just try to touch me!"
"Ding... Host reverses pretentiousness, gains 7000 Pretentiousness Points."
The group of ghost cultivators sighed; the reversal was so quick they all thought Chu Hao was doomed.
Chu Hao was full of swagger, and Lǚ Bù’s personal guards were torn; they really didn’t dare to touch him now.
They could only retreat and leave.
Chu Hao, even more smug, said, "Scram! Don’t let me see you again. Tell that brat Lǚ Bù Fengxian that I’ll come to trouble him sooner or later."
White Impermanence was speechless, covering his forehead.
The moment Chu Hao spoke, Lǚ Bù’s personal guards turned around angrily and yelled, "Bold! How dare a mere External Envoy disrespect General Fengxian."
Chu Hao was stunned; how did they turn against me?
Chu Hao cautiously asked White Impermanence, "Brother Bai, is this External Envoy official position very high?"
White Impermanence was speechless and said softly, "Every one of General Fengxian’s guards is ranked higher than you."
Oh, damn it!
Lǚ Bù’s guards outrank me by one level!
This, what am I supposed to do now!
"Everyone disperse," said Lord Miao.
Helplessly, Lǚ Bù’s guards had to retreat.
"Chu, External Envoy," Lord Miao said.
Chu Hao replied, "Present."
Lord Miao admired him and said, "You’re quite good, keep it up."
Chu Hao looked conflicted.
Lord Miao asked in confusion, "What’s the matter? Any dissatisfaction?"
Chu Hao said, "Well, my Lord, I’ve killed so many necromancer corpses, isn’t the External Envoy position kind of ... lacking?"
He really wanted to say, being even lower ranked than Lǚ Bù’s personal guards is too disappointing.
Lord Miao snorted coldly, "You don’t want it? Then I’ll withdraw the appointment."
White Impermanence hurriedly said, "Lord Miao, don’t listen to his nonsense; this boy is clueless, I’ll teach him when we go back."
"Alright, from now on, Chu the External Envoy will follow you, and teach him well."
"Yes."
Lord Miao also left.
Chu Hao then grumbled, "How annoying."
White Impermanence’s lip twitched and said, "You ought to be content; this is a great opportunity. With this official position, you can freely come and go in the Underworld."
Chu Hao said, "Didn’t I already go in and out before?"
White Impermanence slapped his forehead and said helplessly, "This is different. Your official position may seem small, but you are the first living person appointed by Lord Myriarch Nanweng Wafu."
Chu Hao curiously asked, "Is this Myriarch very powerful?"
White Impermanence said, "Not just powerful, in Fengdu, Nanjing, we have a total of twenty Myriarchs. Other Myriarchs can only command ten to a hundred thousand Netherworld soldiers."
Chu Hao said, "That’s not a lot!"
White Impermanence rolled his eyes and said, "I haven’t finished. Myriarch Nanweng Wafu is one of the few who commands a million Netherworld soldiers. Other Myriarchs are not on the same level."
A million Netherworld soldiers, now that’s impressive.
White Impermanence continued, "Lǚ Bù is also a Myriarch, but his rank is far below Myriarch Nanweng Wafu. Now you understand why his guards didn’t dare to touch you?"
Chu Hao understood; he was appointed personally by Myriarch Nanweng Wafu, and an official rank higher suppresses ghosts—same principle.
Should Lǚ Bù dare to touch him, he would have to watch Myriarch Nanweng Wafu’s expression.
Chu Hao was still unwilling and said, "Is the External Envoy’s position really small? What use does it have?"
White Impermanence said, "Honestly, it’s not of much use, similar to Yang Realm, uh! Like city management."
WTF!
The greater the expectation, the greater the disappointment.
Turns out it’s just a city manager!
Chu Hao was speechless and questioned the heavens.
White Impermanence said, "Be content; the Underworld is huge, with so many districts. Many ghost cultivators aspire for an official position but can’t achieve it. Many ghosts become Netherworld soldiers but haven’t become an External Envoy; you got the position upon arrival, and it was granted by a Myriarch, your future is bright."
Chu Hao sighed.
White Impermanence continued, "Let me see your appointment token."
Chu Hao took out the token.
After examining it for a while, White Impermanence said in surprise, "Indeed, only people from the Yang Realm can use this token; you’ve hit the jackpot."
"How so?"
White Impermanence said, "People from the Yang Realm can’t stay in the Underworld for too long. Once your physical body descends, it cannot withstand the order of the Yin Realm; you will lose your soul intelligence after seven days. With this token, you can ignore the order and stay in the Underworld indefinitely."
Finally, some consolation.
This time, he didn’t return to Impermanence Palace; White Impermanence told Chu Hao many things, saying, "An External Envoy’s specific task is to manage the Fengdu hierarchy. I’ll arrange your accommodation."
Chu Hao said, "Brother Bai, when does the Ghost Gate Pass open? It’s not quite right for me, being from the Yang Realm, to stay here."
White Impermanence said, "There are smaller paths; if you wish to leave, you naturally can."
"Thank you, Brother Bai."
White Impermanence chuckled and said, "You’re welcome; just don’t forget your Brother Bai when you’re successful in the future."
Then, Chu Hao was arranged to the Fengdu First District, a place close to the Ghost Gate Pass.
It was a tall building, also home to External Envoys, located near the edge of District One.
He was arranged into a fifty-square-meter room, not too big or small.
The facilities were relatively complete, and there was a TV in the living room.
A TV in the Underworld, how refreshing!
People from the Yang Realm probably haven’t seen this!
White Impermanence left first, planning to find Chu Hao tomorrow.
With this, when Chu Hao comes to the Underworld, he at least has a place to stay.
There are many districts in Fengdu.
District One is said to be very large, and the housing prices are absurdly expensive, similar to geographical locations akin to the capital of the Yang Realm.
Chu Hao lay on the bed; after a big battle, he was also quite exhausted.
This time, the harvest was fairly good.

Chu Hao rubbed his hands and said, "System, open the Silver Diamond Treasure Chest."
"Ding... Congratulations to the Host for acquiring the Yin-Yang Door to Anywhere."
Chu Hao was overjoyed.
This item is precisely what he most needed.
