Chapter 294

Seeing this scene, the people around also understood that the sword cultivator named 'Cheng Li' was not Le Li's suitor at all; Le Li looked more like his follower.

However, no one pointed this out.

After all, in the cultivation world, strength is respected; the strength Li Chen showed proved that what he did was unquestionable.

Didn't you see how good the manager's attitude towards Li Chen was? Who would dare to provoke Li Chen for no reason?

Even if some young male cultivators were jealous of Li Chen, they didn't dare to say a bad word in front of Li Chen, let alone provoke him, because they knew they were not in the same league as Li Chen.

At this time, Li Chen hadn't forgotten Le Li's list and began to look for items to climb the rankings in the beast tide.

His list read: ten Green Scale Python inner cores, fifty bottles of Iron-Backed Wolf blood, one hundred Red Flame Tiger bones, and eight hundred-year-old spirit foxes.

Normally, these are all top-notch cultivation materials, and the nearby cultivators were all grabbing them.

But a strange scene appeared: as long as Li Chen needed them, the nearby cultivators would help him find them.

Not to mention ordinary cultivators, even other young and beautiful female cultivators who made it into the Celestial Beauty Ranking were helping Li Chen complete the task, looking like they were trying to curry favor.

Liu Tang beside them was dumbfounded; she thought: Can it still be played like this?

Perhaps Liu Tang doesn't understand, but in the eyes of young female cultivators, Li Chen is the popular man.

Even if they are women pursued by thousands, so what? How many men in this world can be as excellent as Li Chen?

Le Li just came back and saw more than a dozen young female cultivators who were competing with her surrounding Li Chen, feeling like she was being 'stolen from home'.

Even if Li Chen is not her man, she is a bit unhappy, blocking Li Chen like she is protecting food.

This made Liu Tang feel that she was too deep into the play; that is the Mansion Master's man!

Regardless, Li Chen can be considered to have completed all his tasks for coming to Qizhou City.

Next, just wait for the announcement of the Celestial Beauty Ranking.

However, there is one more thing that Li Chen needs to complete, and that is to deal with the derelict Zhou Jing.

When Li Chen hadn't arrived at the City Garrison Commander's Mansion, Zhou Jing was already trembling like a sieve here.

His dereliction of duty was already very serious, and being seen by the emperor visiting incognito made it even more serious.

Zhou Jing's cultivation is in the Six Realms Realm, and holding an important position can be considered barely competent.

It is worth mentioning that he was recommended to the late emperor by the Minister of Personnel who had just stepped down.

The bad habit of this guy is that some of the people recommended are not big villains, but they are just a bit useless and have no ability.

Li Chen decided that after returning, he would let the new Minister of Personnel conduct a large-scale assessment of officials of all departments of the May Tian Ce Dynasty. Any official who does not do things for a long time, or whose ability is insufficient, will be dismissed!

The May Tian Ce Dynasty has plenty of talents; if you don't do it, there are plenty of people who will!

Actually, this is also an opportunity for the children of luck Fang Gan and Luo Yong.

They entered the Ministry of Personnel and lacked work to farm achievements; doesn't this have work? They are responsible for this aspect of work.

As long as they complete the work, their positions will also be constantly improved.

When Li Chen arrived at the City Garrison Commander's Mansion, the City Lord and the Lin Chengjian of Qizhou City also came.

Hearing that the emperor appeared, if they didn't come, that would be a matter of principle.

Even if Li Chen is young, the status pressure on him is sufficient.

Even the scheming ministers are afraid, let alone these local officials.

No matter how high their status is locally, they don't dare to breathe loudly in front of Li Chen.

Li Chen was like a leader inspecting, asking them about Qizhou City's population, commerce, cultivators, sect layout, etc.

The City Lord and the Lin Chengjian could answer, but the City Garrison Commander Zhou Jing spoke a bit hesitantly.

Li Chen asked: "You have been in office for four years, right? What have you done in these four years?"

Don't look at Li Chen asking Zhou Jing, but the two people beside him were also shrinking their heads, very afraid.

Especially this kind of indifferent attitude, which makes people unable to figure it out.

Zhou Jing knelt on the ground and replied: "Back to Your Majesty, I know my cultivation is not high, and sects are numerous here, and the strong are respected, so I thought about improving my cultivation to convince the public and contribute to the May Tian Ce Dynasty. In these four years, I have been in seclusion most of the time. I know I was wrong, please forgive me, Your Majesty."

Seeing him like this, Li Chen sighed.

Actually, he didn't commit any major mistakes, just that his ability was insufficient, and his skills didn't match his position.

If he were placed in a lower position, he would still be competent.

However, all this will wait until Li Chen returns to the imperial capital.

At the same time, in another place, in the Purple Moon Pavilion, an industry of the Purple Cloud Immortal Mansion.

Le Li looked outside the door anxiously, walking back and forth in the courtyard, looking a bit uneasy.

Liu Tang beside her teased: "Why, are you thinking about His Majesty?"

Le Li's face flushed, and she spat: "Talking nonsense, I'm just worried that His Majesty will be confused by those enchanting women and delay business."

Hearing this, Liu Tang smiled wickedly: "Oh? Then are you planning to confuse His Majesty yourself? That way His Majesty can avoid being confused by other women."

Le Li rolled her eyes at her and said: "Go away! I think it's you who wants to."

Seeing the two of them teasing each other, Elder Shi Yingying beside them felt that they probably already had a good impression of Li Chen.

There's no way, Li Chen is just that excellent, like a walking hormone; as long as women come into contact with him, they want to have deeper contact.

Shi Yingying felt that she had underestimated His Majesty Li Chen's charm; it seems the plan should be very easy to succeed.

When Li Chen returned, Shi Yingying invited him to the Purple Cloud Immortal Mansion to hold a celebration banquet.

It can be considered as thanking Li Chen for what he did for the Purple Cloud Immortal Mansion; Li Chen was just doing it casually, anyway, he had to complete the task.

However, he accepted Shi Yingying's kindness.

After all, Li Chen has a good impression of the Purple Cloud Immortal Mansion; there are not only young and beautiful female cultivators inside, but also many elders who still have charm.

It's like there are countless treasures waiting for Li Chen to excavate.

Hearing that Li Chen is going to the Purple Cloud Immortal Mansion, Liu Tang and Le Li are even more joyful.

Being able to stay with Li Chen for a while longer, they feel it is an honor.

The Purple Cloud Immortal Mansion is in the area near Qizhou City, where immortal mist curls and spiritual energy is abundant.

As a major force passed down for thousands of years, the scale is very huge.

When Li Chen came this time, the interior of the Purple Cloud Immortal Mansion was already expanding.

And Mu Qingrou had already gone to the station of the Nine Abyss Sacred Domain to hold an enrollment ceremony.

Major sects will jointly recruit students, giving countless young cultivators a chance to be assessed.

Originally, the Nine Abyss Sacred Domain recruited students once a year, and the time hasn't arrived this year.

But due to the appearance of the Sea Clan, resources began to increase, so the people of the Nine Abyss Sacred Domain thought about recruiting quickly while taking this opportunity, and then they could lead the disciples to train.

Otherwise, other forces would snatch all the people.

Then many affairs of the Purple Cloud Immortal Mansion were handed over to Shi Yingying to handle.

A plan that made Li Chen linger and forget to return began to be implemented.
