Three days of busy time passed quickly.
During these three days, even Chen Xiao stayed in the Patrolling Hall to help sort out all the incoming messages.
Some of this information was useless, others useful, and needed to be separated and passed on.
Previously, Class Chang was busy with this matter. Fortunately, with Chen Xiao's help, it was a lot easier for him.
This was Chen Xiao's first time doing all these things. Fortunately, it was easy for him to get started. It was just that the task was too busy. It took him a full two to three days to get things done.
On the third day, class led a group of people to clean themselves up before hurriedly heading to the Heavenly Palace.
When they reached the entrance of the Heavenly Palace, the morning assembly had already begun inside. Class Chang brought Chen Xiao and the others and waited outside.
They, the members of the Patrol Hall, had special privileges and did not need to attend the Imperial Court. Otherwise, with their status, they would have made it into the Imperial Court.
This time, they were going to wait outside for a period of time. After the morning assembly was over, it would be time for the people from the Patrol Hall to enter.
Everyone waited outside for nearly an hour before they saw the general director slowly walking towards them.
Arriving before the crowd, the general director smiled and said, "His Majesty is waiting in the great hall. Ladies and gentlemen, please!"
"Thank you, general director!" The class smiled and cupped their hands, then called for Chen Xiao and the others to follow.
The general director looked at the people behind Ban Chang. He smiled and nodded towards Chen Xiao before leading the way. Chen Xiao and the rest naturally followed quickly.
In a short period of time, everyone arrived at the main hall. The Celestial Emperor was currently seated majestically atop a dragon throne, with over a hundred ministers standing on either side of him.
When Chen Xiao entered, his gaze sized up both sides. He had basically seen them before, and even Yan Hui was present.
However, what surprised Chen Xiao was that the one standing with Yan Hui was no longer the four Heavenly Kings, but the other four Chen Xiao had never seen before.
However, to be able to stand so close to the front and be on the same level as Yan Hui, it was likely that the four newly conferred Heavenly Kings were on the same level!
Chen Xiao deliberately sized up the four of them and noticed that they seemed to all be very strong and vigorous people, and their eyes were all shining with a bright light. Although they did not release their cultivation, they were at least in the late stage of the Divine Soul Realm, obviously not ordinary people.
"Subordinate Chang, Chen Xiao …" "We pay our respects to Your Majesty!" Ban Chang Chang Chang and the rest cupped their hands and bowed to the Celestial Emperor.
"No need for formalities!" The imposing voice of the Celestial Emperor slowly echoed out.
Only then did everyone raise their heads, but they didn't dare to look directly at the Celestial Emperor. They could only look around from the corner of their eyes.
The Heavenly Emperor said: "Ban Chang, in recent years, under your management, the Patrol Hall has been progressing increasingly, which can be considered as a meritorious deed for our Emperor. This time, there is nothing else for you to do but to move your position, I wonder if you are willing?"
Ben Chang stood by Chen Xiao's side, and upon hearing the words of the Celestial Emperor, he became excited for a split-second. He immediately cupped his fists and bowed, "I will do whatever I have to do for His Majesty!"
"Alright, now that the four new kings have just been established, they have so many things to do, so they lack people to help them. So, I want to send you to become the next general of the army, to be redeployed to the king, what do you think?" The Celestial Emperor smiled as he looked at Ban Chang, waiting quietly.
Although Ben Chang's cultivation was only at the peak of Borderless Stage, he was deeply trusted by the Heavenly Emperor. Otherwise, he wouldn't be in charge of such an important matter like the Patrol Hall in the Heavenly Court, and he would be the right-hand man.
Now that the Heavenly Emperor had sent him to be a general under the royal helmet, although his position seemed far inferior to the twelve Great Generals, it was still half a rank higher than his current position. More importantly, he could only manage a few tens of thousands of people in the Patrol Hall, but if he were to be placed under the royal helmet, he would immediately become the right-hand man of a marquis.
As a result, when Ban Chang Zai heard these words, he was extremely excited, and quickly cupped his hands in response: "This official shall take over, in the future I will definitely assist you in your plans!"
"Alright!" The Heavenly Emperor smiled and nodded. As he stroked the goatee, he turned to look at the four Heavenly Kings below, and said to a slightly skinny guy: "My King, you were looking for me earlier, but now I can be considered to have appointed a capable person for you. Although Ban Chang is usually the one in charge of inspecting the left division, he is born in close guard, and his battle prowess is similarly valiant, but do not underestimate him, are you willing?"
"Since Your Majesty has sent the orders, this subject would be satisfied. How could this subject be unwilling?" Xiang Wang quickly responded with a smile, then turned to look at Class Chang Zai and laughed out loud: "Brother Ben, from today onwards, you and I are considered colleagues, I hope you and I will work together to help His Majesty!"
"Yes to the king, do your best!" Ban Chang smiled and nodded.
After the two of them chatted for a while, the overlord's gaze swept past the two of them and landed on Chen Xiao.
Chen Xiao, who was about to step down, felt his heart skip a beat as he knew that something had happened.
As expected, the Celestial Emperor said slowly: "Chen Xiao, do you remember I asked you before what position you wanted?"
"This subject remembers!" Chen Xiao replied immediately, "This subject is willing to listen to His Majesty's orders!"
Compared to before, Chen Xiao didn't want to sink too deep into the quagmire. Now, he was completely stuck in the quagmire. Even if he wanted to leave, he couldn't. The only way was to subvert the Heavenly Court!
Therefore, even if he really wanted to join the Heavenly Court, even if he did go to court every day, Chen Xiao could only accept it.
This was because only then would he be able to provide more accurate information to Lin Wang and the others, and only then would he be able to bring out a sufficient amount of benefits in the current chaotic situation.
The Celestial Emperor was very satisfied with Chen Xiao's answer.
However, the people around them started to whisper to each other. Many of them didn't know that the Celestial Emperor had previously seen Chen Xiao alone. Now that they heard Chen Xiao, they were curious.
The Heavenly Emperor knew of these people's curiosity, so he simply continued: "Your cultivation has already reached the level of Divine Soul Realm, and you're now a Grade Eight Pill King. I intend to transfer you to be a vice general under Duan Wang Helian, what do you think?"
"Vice General?" The crowd looked at each other in dismay.
Without waiting for Chen Xiao to speak, someone suddenly spoke: "Your Majesty, since Sir Chen is the Pill King, this subject feels that you should not send him under the Duan Emperor's command. Although Sir Chen may be able to be a general, it is not easy to nurture a Pill King, especially a young one like Sir Chen. I believe that he rarely goes to war, or if something were to happen to him in the future, it would not be worth it to lose him!"
As soon as these words were spoken, the group of people immediately nodded.
Indeed, the battle prowess of pill refiners were generally inferior to that of ordinary cultivators. This was a fact that was acknowledged by everyone in the entire immortal realms. Thus, what these people said wasn't wrong.
Unfortunately, they were talking about Chen Xiao!
