Chapter 469 - 343 Heating Up_2

~6 min read 1,002 words

But...he has never expressed any thoughts on this matter.

"White Robe?"

Wang Man slightly lifted his eyelids and glanced at him, a trace of disdain flashing in his eyes.

To ask such a question, he might as well have no future in this life.

Chen Xuan is a White Robe.

He is also a White Robe.

Are the two of them on equal footing?

Isn’t that foolish?

Can’t he even understand such basic human relations?

"Temporarily not interested!"

He replied perfunctorily and continued to close his eyes.

"Hehe!"

Yin Ning awkwardly laughed, clearly having seen Wang Man’s disdainful look just now.

In the past, there would have been a scolding.

But...now he is Immortal Grade.

Times have changed.

Let’s just pretend...not to have seen anything.

"This kid...has really latched onto a big thigh."

Niu Qiang, who had been quietly sitting, watched this scene with great envy.

But what intrigued him more was why the superior chose him?

He had probed into this matter, but...don’t be fooled by Wang Man’s simplicity, his mind was very sharp.

As for Gou Court, who used to treat Wang Man as a lackey, now smiled flatteringly, "Brother Man’s realm is truly high now, after all, he is a White Robe! If I were Immortal Grade, I would have definitely applied at the first opportunity."

Calling him Brother Man made Wang Man euphoric.

The extreme joy shot straight to his head.

It’s not that he is petty; it’s just that the people who used to bully him are now pandering to him, which anyone would enjoy.

He considered himself good, at least until now he hadn’t bullied Gou Court.

Achieving this level was already not easy.

Of course, he was still disdainful, after all, their levels were not the same anymore.

"What White Robe!"

At this moment, Chen Xuan’s voice came through.

The originally sleepy Wang Man immediately stood up, his face instantly beaming with smiles, looking towards the door.

Chen Xuan slowly walked in.

"Master, you’ve finally finished your retreat."

Wang Man quickly went up to greet him.

"Eh!"

"Master, have you broken through the realm?"

Becoming Immortal Grade, even though he was a fraud, his perception had improved remarkably.

Moreover, Chen Xuan wasn’t deliberately concealing it.

So he saw through it at a glance.

"Yes, this retreat was to break the realm."

Chen Xuan nodded.

"Congratulations, Master, congratulations, Master, Eastern Domain Three Judicial Departments will soon have a Golden Robe."

Wang Man immediately congratulated loudly.

And the other four followed suit, each with a face filled with smiles.

In the past, they might have held Wang Man’s servility in contempt.

But ever since he became Immortal Grade....the regret in their hearts....

They hated their own blindness back then, letting Wang Man seize the opportunity first.

But who would have thought that he became Immortal Grade by exchanging information?

If merely being servile could get Chen Xuan to promote him, he would have been too foolish.

"Alright, no need to be so courteous."

Chen Xuan sat at the head.

"By the way, what was said about being a White Robe?"

"Reporting to Master, we were joking about Wang Man now being Immortal Grade and able to apply for White Robe."

Niu Qiang explained.

"Oh?"

Chen Xuan was somewhat surprised as he looked at Wang Man, "You’re not interested in White Robe?"

"Haha!"

Wang Man scratched his head and said, "Master is still a White Robe, how can I also be a White Robe?"

A statement that showed his loyalty to Chen Xuan.

"You brat."

Chen Xuan pointed at him, then smiled.

Seemingly simple but actually very insightful, just a bit lacking in talent.

But it’s alright.

"In a few days, I’ll apply for Golden Robe, then you’ll take this position in Eastern Domain Three Judicial Departments."

Once a Golden Robe, one can’t hold this position anymore.

This is also the tradition of the Three Judicial Departments.

Besides,

I initially joined the Three Judicial Departments for the fifth floor of the Library Pavilion.

But after Qin Ke became the department chief, it wasn’t like he could enter at will, hanging onto the Golden Robe title, then gradually laying low, so this identity could eventually disappear.

This was Chen Xuan’s well-considered decision.

After all, having too many identities...sometimes it’s easy to give oneself away.

"Ah....?"

Wang Man was utterly stunned upon hearing this, though he had thought about White Robe, which was at least after Chen Xuan became Golden Robe, but he hadn’t thought about becoming the head of Eastern Domain Three Judicial Departments.

After all, there are plenty of White Robes in Three Judicial Departments, where would an early-stage Immortal Grade dare have any qualification?

"Thank you, Master, for the promotion!"

A full seven-foot man, in front of everyone, directly knelt on both knees in gratitude to Chen Xuan.

At this moment, he looked at him with excitement.

"Stand up."

Chen Xuan said, waving a single hand, and a gentle force lifted him up.

Wang Man got up, his smile almost reaching his ears.

The head of Eastern Domain Three Judicial Departments...hehe!

"Follow me to the third floor."

"Yes!"

With the other four watching enviously, Wang Man followed behind Chen Xuan, cheerfully heading to the third floor.

Being called alone was obviously due to the promise made earlier.

Chen Xuan spent half a day purifying and tempering him, watching the black impurities being expelled from Wang Man’s body.

"Alright, go down!"

"Thank you, Master, for your rebirth!"

Wang Man knelt on both knees and respectfully knocked his head three times.

Although his strength was still early-stage Immortal Grade, he could feel unprecedented clarity, and his whole body felt much lighter.

"If there’s any special news, make sure to inform me promptly, and there will be many benefits for you."

"Yes, Master!"

Wang Man, after getting up, nodded heavily.

After finishing all this, Chen Xuan didn’t linger; about an hour later, he left here to head to Three Judicial Departments.

Under Qin Ke’s arrangements, he met with Zongzheng smoothly.
