♂,
Half a month passed, and the half-year supply of second-grade immortal-qi disks had been drained completely. After all, these several hundred immortals were no ordinary consumers. Fortunately, there were still plenty of third-grade qi disks, so for the time being, I didn't need to worry too much about the supply.
Since I had only expended Dao power, I had already recovered completely during this period. As for the other immortals, even though the second-grade True Immortal qi had sped up their progress considerably, they would still need another three months or so to fully recover.
To free my hands for other matters, I had to arrange a commander before leaving.
I glanced around. Si Xiaoxian was a technical talent, so he was naturally unsuitable to lead these immortals. Chi Sheng was a thorn in the side and currently fit only for odd jobs. The others included civil officials and generals, but they certainly lacked cohesion. After considering it from every angle, I brought out that old chancellor and appointed him temporary commander of all the officials here.
That chancellor was named Shang Min. He had once truly been the Right Chancellor of the Divine Court, but after losing that political struggle instigated by Si Xiaoxian, he had been framed by his opponents and thrown into the God-Burying Coffin. Now that he had escaped alive, he had been given another chance to become a god. He wasn't overflowing with gratitude toward me, but he was at least respectful. He seemed easygoing, and since he had stood on Si Xiaoxian's side, I trusted him quite a bit.
"Master, you can go about your business without worry. Leave this place to me." Shang Min cupped his hands as he spoke. Since everyone was no longer immortal, their official ranks had naturally vanished
