"It’s just... an inspector, not the Chief Inspector, so it’s not really above Master Song, right?"

Song Yidao sighed and said, "When Mr. Fang was the Vice Hall Master here, he directly made Hall Master Yuan Jingjiang his little brother... Do you think when he reaches the Southeast Headquarters, he’ll be content to be under someone else?"

"A higher-level official has authority over you, and the Southeast Headquarters isn’t like the Baiyun State Guardian Hall. Fang Che may be capable, but he can’t always act like this."

With disdain, Meng Chizheng said, "Besides, Fang Che is from our Baiyun Martial Arts Academy, a top student, how could he not understand this rule?"

"What you say makes sense. But how do I remember that Mr. Fang actually dropped out before finishing even the first year at Baiyun Martial Arts Academy?"

Song Yidao snorted.

Can’t stand you people boasting.

Meng Chizheng angrily said, "Why don’t you ask Zhao Shanhe about that! Do you think he was expelled by our Baiyun Martial Arts Academy?"

Song Yidao was rendered speechless.

It seemed he had stumbled upon a sore spot with the people of Baiyun Martial Arts Academy.

Even the usually good-natured Meng Chizheng had lost his temper.

"Calm down, calm down... Besides, Mr. Fang’s promotion is a good thing."

Song Yidao said, "Why so worked up? Shouldn’t your Baiyun Martial Arts Academy at least throw a farewell party? Celebrating a disciple’s promotion is also part of your academy’s achievements, isn’t it?"

"Of course."

Meng Chizheng nodded.

"When the time comes, I’ll also come and have a meal, make sure to have plenty of black-eyed white bear meat, or that crystal pork, these dishes are all delicious. Like black-eyed white bear paw, and bear whip; and crystal pork kidneys... Smack... Slurp..."

Meng Chizheng casually said, "Does your Baiyun State Guardian Hall just eat for free? Aren’t you going to give Fang Che a send-off? When the time comes, just get a few black-eyed white bears, throw a whole bear feast, and I’ll make sure to bring all the high officials from Baiyun Martial Arts Academy to eat."

Song Yidao’s face twitched a few times, painfully said, "Then it’s settled, each of our families will host a meal."

"No problem!"

Meng Chizheng left with his hands behind his back, "I have to go back to the academy to share the good news."

"Go on, go on."

Watching Meng Chizheng walk away, Song Yidao let out a sigh of relief.

Meng Jianzhang always carried himself with the manner of a gentleman, with righteousness and charisma, his appearance was refined and approachable, his conversation was like a warm breeze.

But somehow, Song Yidao just never really felt any enthusiasm towards Meng Jianzhang.

No matter what, he couldn’t muster any warmth.

It was quite strange.

However, since the people of Baiyun Martial Arts Academy had gone to prepare, his Baiyun State Guardian Hall also had to prepare.

Couldn’t be overshadowed by Baiyun Martial Arts Academy, right?

Song Yidao hurried off as well.

Ye Meng leaned by the bedside, attending to Fang Che with care, cooked a medicinal porridge, and gently cooled each spoonful to feed him.

Feeling he was steady in spirit, his divine sense not too chaotic, seemingly improving at every moment, and there was no turmoil of spiritual power within him.

He felt relieved.

As long as he wakes up, he’d be lively as a dragon again!

Once Meng Chizheng returned and told the news, everyone was immediately elated.

And at Baiyun State Guardian Hall, there was also an outburst of joy.

"Congratulations Mr. Fang, best wishes, Mr. Fang!"

"Mr. Fang is truly amazing! One step directly to the Southeast Headquarters!"

"From now on, he’ll be in a leadership position! Incredible!"

But many people like Yun Jianqiu and Jing Xiuyun were very reluctant.

With Fang Che’s move to the Southeast Headquarters, as Yuan Jingjiang had put it: a dragon entering the sea! A phoenix flying into the sky!

From then on, he’d overturn rivers and seas, a hero had found a place to put his skills to use.

Coming back to this Baiyun State Guardian Hall would be impossible.

So many people felt sorrowful.

Of course, some were happy like the lame Hong Er, who was very excited.

With Mr. Fang gone, getting beaten up three or four hundred times a year would definitely decrease.

Though there was some reluctance, it was more of a joyful relief.

But outwardly, this rascal still had to show reluctance.

"I really can’t bear for Mr. Fang to leave, boohoo... Mr. Fang’s promotion should be celebrated, but why do I feel so unwilling, boohoo hahaha..."

This guy thought of not getting beaten, and amidst crying, he actually laughed out loud.

This laugh indeed provoked public anger.

Jing Xiuyun furiously shouted with furrowed brows, "You heartless Hong Er, without Mr. Fang, could you have achieved what you have today? Without Mr. Fang, could you have found a wife? Without Mr. Fang, would your embarrassing ailment be cured? Now you behave like this..."

Everyone was furious.

Very angry.

And with Mr. Fang leaving, everyone’s hearts were filled with reluctance.

Now, suddenly, a vent for their anger appeared, how could they not seize it?

So, someone shouted, "Beat him!"

Instantly, the crowd swarmed!

The lame Hong Er had practically no ability to fight back and was swallowed by the sea of people.

Thump, thump, thump, bang, bang, bang, a brutal beating ensued.

He was beaten so badly that he was gasping for breath, lying on the ground, rolling his eyes, and frantically kicking his legs.

Yuan Jingjiang kicked him towards the latrine, "Stop pretending... go wash up in the latrine..."

The lame Hong Er shrieked, did a flip mid-air over the latrine, landed on the wall, and then ran off cursing...

There was joy on this side.

And Yin Shen Palace received the news on the other side.

"Safe and sound? Just unconscious for two days!"

Yin Shen Palace laughed loudly, slapped his thigh, and applauded, "Good!"

"Are the appointments confirmed? The handover should be completed within a month, nurture a successor for the Guardian Hall, and then report to the Southeast Headquarters?!"

"Good! This is even better!"

"Indeed an inspector? Hahahaha... just as I hoped!"

Yin Shen Palace was full of excitement. 𝑓𝘳𝑒𝑒𝓌𝘦𝘣𝘯ℴ𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝑚

Laughing heartily while looking at the intelligence.

Then hurriedly, he began to report the good news to Vice Sect Master Yan Nan.

"Reporting to the Vice Sect Master, Yemo has already passed the Wenxin Road, although the process wasn’t easy, the divine soul was impacted, he’s now unconscious, but the crisis has been overcome."
