Yan Xiangma!
The person who had come was actually Yan Xiangma!
That Yan Xiangma—the number-one wastrel of Jiangnan City, Yan Xiangma, the Supervision Department Chief Historian, Yan Xiangma the traitorous dragon who had betrayed the country, the Yan Xiangma who had been expelled from his family after suffering serious injuries.
After being driven out by his family elders, Yan Xiangma had vanished from the eyes of the world. No one knew where he had gone. Many people guessed that he had left Tiandu and returned to Starry Sky Academy to continue his studies.
Within Kunlun Divine Palace, Starry Sky Master Xiahou Qianbai greatly admired Yan Xiangma and seemed quite inclined to take him under his wing as a disciple. If Yan Xiangma could follow him, it would certainly be a stroke of good fortune.
After all, having suffered every injustice only to be abandoned by his family would naturally leave one utterly disheartened. Apart from secluded cultivation, what else could possibly make him reluctant to leave?
What Song Tingyun had never expected was that Yan Xiangma would appear in the central command tent of the Kirin Army. Even more unexpected was that he was still wearing the flying-fish uniform of the Supervision Department.
After he left, he had been dismissed and struck from the rolls of the Supervision Department. The new Supervision Chief Historian was a senior historian loyal to the Song Clan. That way, at the very least, the Cui Clan's influence within the Supervision Department could not become overwhelmingly dominant. The Song Clan also needed to place spies and personnel inside it.
Three-legged toads were hard to find, but two-legged Supervision Chief Historians were everywhere.
If the Song Clan said you were capable, then you were capable. Even if you weren't, you still were.
