Chapter 896: Temporary Mobilization

gritted teeth.>> The arrival of Shaoqing was just like the vast and imposing presence of the Haotan Alliance, coming in with a mighty wave and then leaving as abruptly. Even the corpses of the fallen...Yet as soon as the thought arose, he saw Qian Wudang smiling and looking over here, and the distance between them rapidly narrowed.

With no other choice, Lu Ye could only fly towards him and greet him with a fist salute. "Greetings, sir!"

"With one hand on his back, Jian Wu stood three zhang away from Ye Mian. He surveyed Ye Mian from head to toe and nodded. 'Indeed you are a true lake. What brings you here'"

"Handling some private matters." Lu Ye replied casually, without explaining much.

Let me know if you have other text you'd like translated!

The mysterious smile on Qian Wu Dang’s face couldn't conceal his disdain. He merely said, "When I return to Cang Yan Mountain Pass, tell your commander that I greet him. A month ago, she came and went in a hurry, yet she wouldn’t even give me a moment of her time."

"A month ago" Lu Ye was taken aback. Qian Wu gave a meaningful smile: "It was during the days you were imprisoned in the prison. Otherwise, how do you think you got to the Cangyan Mountain Pass"

As for this matter, Lu Ye is truly clueless.

"However, it seemed like he didn't want to explain too much. He just said a few words before flying away from Lu Ye."

Leaving Lü Yè alone in deep thought.

The meaning of " listening to Dry No Talk" seems to be that I can go to Cangyan Mountain Land myself. The fact that Nianyue Fairy came to Haotianzhen last time seems to have a direct connection.

It seems like Yue Xian went out of her way to get herself assigned here from the recruitment office

"How coincidental! The border defenses of Bingzhou have many passes, and you just happened to go to the very special place at Cangyan Mountain Pass. And for decades before you, that place was where Nian Yuexian sat alone."

Perhaps Second Sister also contributed to this.

In the blink of an eye, Lu Ye had already figured out the ins and outs of the matter. However, there was no way he could have known that in order to compete for him, Ni Yuexian had completely offended another Sea-god Realm cultivator, even going so far as to fight them openly in public.

On the front lines, many times war achievements are accumulated over time. The conflicts and battles between the front lines and the Abyssal Maw were not as frequent as imagined.

After waiting for a while inside the Ministry of Personnel, it was Lu Ye's turn. He stepped forward and handed the guard order to the petite woman with a round face who was handling the matter.

As a female cultivator, she had aided countless cultivators in ascending their ranks throughout her life. Naturally, she was well-versed in the process. After receiving the guard order, she inquired about Lu Ye's origins and background, comparing them to the information on the order. Once confirmed accurate, she instructed Lu Ye to place his hand bearing the battlefield imprint onto the merit plate to assess the accumulated military merits.

Just like last time, the colors on the battle honors board kept changing, and the female cultivator's calm expression also shifted with them.

Then, a hushed whisper: "Purple!"

Last time this was tested, the battle honors board bloomed.

The light that comes out is yellow, corresponding to Wei Guards. This time it's purple, corresponding to the Duwei!

It seems like my calculations are correct. The accumulated military merit from past battles is indeed enough to warrant a promotion in rank.

Between a glance, the female cultivator before him with beautiful eyes who was handling this matter for him was filled with astonishment and worship.

Within the Haotianguan Alliance, there were quite a few cultivators of the Dutou rank. She had been working here for a long time, handling promotions of military ranks. Don't mention Dutou, even higher-ranking guards like Hujun she had met some.

How could there be a prefect so young in this world

Lu Ye, because of his long travels and many battles, looked older than his actual age on the surface. He was probably around twenty years old at most.

A twenty-year-old military captain No one has even heard of him, let alone seen him.

But his cultivation level is only at the Zhenhu first stage!

Generally speaking, to promote a military rank to the level of lieutenant commander, it would take at least the late True Lake realm. As for higher ranks like army general and camp commander, they are exclusively for those in the Divine Sea realm, with no record of any True Lake realm soldier being promoted to the level of army general.

Because of the existence of this level, it's no longer just about the amount of accumulated military merit, but also about the size of the achievements made.

Perhaps Zhenhujing accumulated enough military merit through his monthly salary and service. However, even if he had made significant contributions, it wouldn't necessarily be enough to be promoted to a Protector or Camp Commander.

Here is a female cultivator who has been staying here for many years. She hasn't even reached the age of twenty and only possesses the cultivation base of True Lake One Layer. Today, she finally met Lu Ye, which inevitably shocked and puzzled her.

I can't figure out what Lu Ye did to have such impressive achievements.

"Sister"

Lü Yè saw her lost in thought and couldn't help but say something.

The female cultivator only then came to her senses, and with an apologetic expression said: "Just a moment."

"Having said that, I used Lu Ye's imperial decree to test it and quickly returned it to him: "Brother Lu, please check it over. Make sure there are no mistakes."

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Lu Ye picked up his guard token and channeled his spiritual energy into it. Making sure the token emitted a purple glow, he put it away and gave the female cultivator a slight nod. "Thank you, senior sister,"

Under the astonished gazes of several cultivators nearby, he left gracefully.

As for herself, she had long since married and had a husband to keep her company, so naturally she did not think about it.

As the sky darkened, Lu Ye wasn't prepared to continue his journey.

He took a day's leave with Niàn Yuè Xiān. Niàn Yuè Xiān also told him not to rush back, because there had been no battles at Cāng Yán Mountain Pass for a long time, so he could stay in Hào Tiān City for a few more days, and even go back to Bì Xuě Zōng.

Haotiantian City is not only the central location of the Haotiantian Alliance's military region, but it also has many inns, tea houses, and shops within its walls. This is mainly to accommodate traveling cultivators who need food, lodging, and rest.

And here the prices are quite cheap, about half the price of outside.

Although Lu Ye's last visit wasn't exactly rushed, being imprisoned for several days prevented him from taking a proper look around Haoxian City. Now, under the cover of night, he decided to explore it.

A amber cat sat on his shoulder as the man and tiger strolled through Haotien City at night.

Without a moment's pause, Lu Ye stopped in front of a shop specializing in demon beast meat.

Both of the giant creatures in the War Merit Hall are big eaters. Lu Ye spends tens of thousands of merits every time he enters and exits. It's better to buy some monster blood and meat here for backup. He and Amber sometimes need it, and they can also feed it to the two giant creatures.

He rarely uses this thing called "Spirit Stone," so he's accumulated a lot of it in his storage space.d it.>>Lu Ye nodded slightly.He entered the Hall of Radiant Light, following his Master. In an instant, all eyes turned to him.You must know, those seated here are all the highest-ranking figures of t...
