Amidst the shrill screams, the steward was dragged down.
After Captain Li finished dealing with the Chen Clan, his eyes returned to Lu Chen. The fierce murderous aura instantly dissipated and was replaced by an unprecedented appreciation and... solemnity.
"Lu Chen You have saved Nanling Prefecture this time, and you have the power to lift the sky with Demon Suppression Division! If the rewards and punishments are not clear, how can we encourage the army!"
He stood up, walked to Lu Chen, and personally placed a token made entirely of warm jade with a roaring giant beast engraved with gold thread into his hands.
"From today on, you are me Demon Suppression Division Imperial Guard Camp, and the third Centurion! Give Nanling Prefecture City a house in the east, ten thousand taels of gold, and ten bottles of top-grade Foundation Elixir!"
"In addition, you are authorized to... enter the second floor of Armory at any time, and choose a mysterious level Cultivation Method at will!"
Boom!
As soon as this statement came out, everyone in the audience was shocked!
Centurion!
Independent house!
Armory Second floor!
Any of these are honors that countless Imperial Guards will struggle to achieve throughout their lives!
And now, all these are concentrated on a young man who has only been in the company for a few months and is only seventeen years old!
"Thank you, Master Captain, for your cultivation!" Lu Chen knelt down on one knee, his voice sonorous and powerful.
At this moment, no one dared to question his qualifications.
Three days later, Chengdong Lu Residence.
A brand-new mansion, with a high red door, high walls, cornices and brackets, two majestic stone lions at the door, and the two characters Lu Residence on the plaque with dancing dragons and phoenixes, which is extraordinary.
In the study room, sandalwood scent lingers.
Lu Chen sat on the Taishi chair made of huanghuali wood and took a gentle sip of Pre-Rain Longjing Tea.
In front of him, five subordinates including Zhao Da Niu Sun Monkey were sitting upright with excited expressions.
Sun Monkey's injury has recovered to some extent thanks to Lu Chen's cost-effective delivery of internal energy and the conditioning of top-grade elixirs, but his face is still a little pale.
"Sir, this is your contribution this month." Zhao Da Niu placed a heavy Brocade Box on the table. "Now you are also serving as Corpse Handling Room's manager. Those old guys are more obedient than each other. The amount of materials put into the warehouse is 30% more than when Foreman Wang was!"
"Yeah." Lu Chen nodded, without looking at the Brocade Box, but said lightly, "Tell them, the rules cannot be broken. It belongs to the department and no penny should be lost. It should be the hard-earned money of the brothers, and no penny can be deducted."
"Yes!"
"Also" Lu Chen's eyes fell on Sun Monkey "This time you will be the first one. I have recommended you to Captain and recommended you as Imperial Guard Camp Banner Sergeant, Zhao Da Niu are Deputy Banner Sergeant, and the other three are all Squad Leader. My soldiers, Lu Chen, cannot be without status."
"Sir!" Sun Monkey and others made a "pop" sound, and they all knelt down on the ground, with tears filling their eyes with excitement, "We... will follow you to the death!"
"Get up." Lu Chen waved his hand, "Come down, I want to meditate."
After sending everyone away, Lu Chen walked alone into the deepest secret room of the mansion.
Here, he has spent a lot of money to build an indestructible quiet place for cultivation.
He sat cross-legged and sunk his mind into the vast ocean of longevity.

Looking at Personal Lifespan who only had fifteen years left, Lu Chen frowned slightly.
Those thirty years of burning life gave me the strength to make a comeback, but the price was also huge.
"System, repair Personal Lifespan deficit."
[Command confirmation, consumption Demon Devil Lifespan 30 years, Personal Lifespan+30 years.]
[Currently remaining lifespan: 45 years.]
[The remaining lifespan of the demon: 158 years.]
Feeling that his vitality became abundant again, Lu Chen breathed a sigh of relief.
His eyes fell on the door <Shadow Demon Trace Steps> which had reached great success.
Movement Method, is always the first priority to save life.
"The system will deduce <Shadow Demon Trace Steps> to perfection!"
[Instruction confirmed, consume Demon Devil Lifespan for one hundred and fifty years, start deduction <Shadow Demon Trace Steps>...]
[... The deduction was successful!]
[<Shadow Demon Trace Steps>Reach the state of [perfection]!]
[Understand the unique characteristics--Traceless: Your movement will no longer produce any sound, airflow or even breath fluctuations. In the shadows, your sense of existence will be weakened to the extreme, and non-mental power is far greater than yours. Strong people will not be able to detect it.]
When that mysterious feeling was completely integrated into his limbs and bones, Lu Chen slowly opened his eyes.
As soon as he thought about it, his whole person disappeared from the place silently like a wisp of smoke blending into the air.
The next second, he quietly appeared at the other end of the secret room.
The whole process didn't make a sound, and even his own breath seemed to disappear out of thin air for a moment!
"Okay! What a Traceless!"
Lu Chen's eyes sparkled.
With such miraculous Movement Method, there is no place in the world that cannot be reached?!
At this moment, a slight knock on the door, accompanied by Zhao Da Niu's muffled voice, came from outside the secret room.
"Sir, someone is coming from the palace..."
Lu Chen raised his eyebrows, gathered his breath, and walked out of the secret room.
In the hall, an old eunuch wearing a python robe, with a white face and a breath as soft as a poisonous snake, was sitting peacefully on the main seat, sipping tea.
It was the supervisor sent by His Majesty whom he met at the Council Hall that day, Eunuch Sun.
"Centurion Lu, our family has been waiting for you for a long time." Eunuch Sun put down the tea cup and said with a smile.
"I don't know why my father-in-law is here. What's the point?"
"Haha, I don't want to take the job." Eunuch Sun stood up and walked slowly to Lu Chen, his cloudy eyes shining with greed, "Our family just followed the order of the nobles in the palace and came to ask for something from Centurion Lu."
He paused, his voice lowered to a whisper.
"I heard that Centurion Lu got one in Anmin Ward... Blood God Child of Blood Demon Cult?"
Eunuch Sun's well-maintained face, with no trace of stubble, had a gentle smile that did not make people feel the slightest warmth.
His turbid eyes were like two poisonous snakes lurking in a dark corner. They seemed lazy, but in fact they were full of scrutiny and greed, locked firmly on Lu Chen.
"Blood God Child?"
Lu Chen's brows were raised slightly, almost imperceptibly, but his face was filled with just the right amount of confusion and confusion.
"My father-in-law is joking. His subordinates are only Demon Suppression Division and a small Centurion. Have you ever heard of such a divine creature?"
His heart sank to the bottom at this moment.
Trouble is coming.
And it's a huge problem!
He had never heard of the name Blood God Child.
No matter it was the memory of his predecessor, his own experience, or even System Panel, these three words never appeared.
This is obviously a game.
