Yao Xuan Envoy Captain with Boundless Potential
"..."
As Ye Li stepped out of the mansion, he ran into Mo Yuan and his group, who had come to investigate the situation.
The elderly captain, still bearing a trace of surprise, approached and quickly cupped his hands in greeting, asking:
"Lord Ye, has the situation been resolved?"
The tremors and flames just now were quite significant, likely the last stand of another demon...
Nevertheless, this was not someone he, a mere fifth-rank captain, could handle.
But in front of this ruthless man who had just dismembered Great Demon who was close to the Dao Evolution Realm, even a demon at the Great Void Realm Seventh Level could obviously not cause any trouble.
The initial doubts had long since vanished, leaving only deep respect in Mo Yuan's heart.
In contrast, Ye Li's expression appeared much calmer.
"Alright, the surrounding repair work is now in your hands." He nodded.
"Rest assured, sir, such a small matter is of no concern to us."
Mo Yuan visibly breathed a sigh of relief, and a genuine smile immediately appeared on his old face as he respectfully asked:
"I wonder if Captain Ye is free tonight? It's getting late, and I've heard that Spring Breeze Tower in the east of the city has acquired a new batch of East Sea Tear Brew. At that time..."
"No need, I have important matters to attend to."
Ye Li raised his hand to interrupt the other person, and said calmly, "Just find me a quiet courtyard to rest in within the company; nothing else is necessary."
There are millions of Malice Points lying dormant in their own backend.
In this situation, if someone still has the patience to attend the banquet, then they really have something wrong with their brain.
It should be understood that the affairs of the Taicang Mu Family cannot be kept secret for long.
Even with his military achievements, Lin Huaijin's attitude remains uncertain, and a corresponding action plan needs to be put on the agenda as soon as possible.
Upon hearing this, Mo Yuan quickly cupped his hands in agreement. "It was my oversight; I'll go and make the arrangements right away."
I couldn't help but feel a little annoyed.
Lord Ye before me has just emerged from a great battle and is in a time for recuperation. I should handle matters step by step and not add unnecessary complications!
This has backfired; instead of leaving a good impression, it has made the other person think of me as a petty, opportunistic person.
You can't blame him for being too impatient.
After all, a young man with such profound background and extraordinary strength as the Dragon Pool Yao Xuan Envoy has a bright future ahead of him. Even in the eyes of the Great Sheng families, he would be a highly regarded candidate when choosing a son-in-law.
If he, a mere Qingping Captain, could cultivate some connections through missions within the department, it might prove invaluable in the future, propelling him to great heights.
Unfortunately, I wasn't destined for that fate... Mo Yuan sighed inwardly.
But now was not the time for sentimentality. He quickly composed himself, turned to look at Liang Baixuan had been waiting behind him for a long time, and coughed lightly:
"Young lady Liang, the crisis is over, and your captain's blood feud has been avenged. Why don't you come and thank Lord Ye!"
"Yes..." Liang Baixuan's face was still a little pale. Upon hearing this, she quickly walked up to Ye Li.
He then knelt down, his eyes lowered, and his voice trembled as he said:
"Thank you so much Lord Ye, for your help... I spoke carelessly and was short-sighted before, almost causing the entire Qingping City to fall!"
Even a newly ascended lower-level Saint who had just entered the Great Void Realm could sense the terrifyingly powerful aura fluctuations of the two demons outside the previous battle.
As her soul trembled, Liang Baixuan also came to a profound realization of a cruel truth—
Even though her own captain sacrificed his life to cover her and her colleagues' escape, it did not help the Demonic Calamity in the slightest.
Instead, it became a deadly trap. If it weren't for the young captain of the Yao Xuan Envoy in front of her being too powerful, the reinforcements that came from the Dragon Pool would have been completely wiped out, and she and her colleagues would all be held responsible!
If we blindly trust the information they obtained at the cost of their lives, the entire Qingping City will pay an incredibly heavy price, and countless citizens will lose their lives as a result!
"This will not be repeated."
Ye Li nodded his chin lightly, seemingly unconcerned.
But his mind was wandering to other things.
Judging from the Memory Scroll of the rabbit demon before its death...
With the full power output of [Golden Soul Revival], his physical strength was already enough to shake a low-level domain lord who had just entered the Dao Evolution Realm.
At least, a half-step Dao Evolution Realm Great Demon alone can no longer pose any significant threat to Ye Li.
However, this does not mean that he, at the Great Void Realm Fourth Level, could easily wipe out the entire Mu family.
The reason is simple.
Most martial artists are stronger than demons of the same level. Even if the Mu Family Head, whom we have never met, is at the same half-step Dao Evolution Realm cultivation level as the Crimson-Eyed Rabbit Demon, he will definitely be more troublesome.
The waters of Dasheng run deep, and he doesn't want to reveal too many of his cards too early.
Furthermore, the Taicang Mu Family is not a loose organization like the demons of Qingping City.
Ye Li absolutely refused to believe that the Dasheng Dynasty hadn't possessed something of substance to survive to this day.
Without first maximizing your own capabilities, you won't have the confidence to even raid other people's homes.
After chatting for a few more minutes...
The old man Mo Yuan, immediately summoned his attendant and instructed him to take Ye Li to the accommodations that had been prepared in advance.
"..."
After the attendant led Ye Li away, Yao Xuan Envoy from Qingping City, finally couldn't help but ask:
"Lord Mo, just who is this person?"
In less than the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, two Great Demons were suppressed one after another. With that level of cultivation, he could probably be a prefect of a region!
As long as one has sufficient qualifications, there's no need to lead a group of Yao Xuan Envoy to travel around slaying demons in Dragon Pool County anymore...
"I don't know either." Mo Yuan stroked his beard, his words tinged with a hint of sighing.
"However, with such cultivation... he must be a trusted confidant whom Prefect Lin intends to cultivate vigorously. In the future, he will surely be able to make the situation in my Dragon Pool more stable."
Having said that, he turned to look at the crowd behind him and smiled:
"It seems that there are indeed talented individuals lying in wait in my Dragon Pool. You should cultivate diligently, and you may very well be able to serve under Lord Ye in the future!"
Upon hearing this, some of the young and ambitious Yao Xuan Envoy became excited. If this were truly the case, their future prospects would be incredibly broad!
The more seasoned veterans, however, exchanged wry smiles. "..."
The captain really treats people like fools, fooling and playing with them.
With Yao Xuan Envoy like that, as long as the captain isn't too old, he'll probably be transferred to one of the more prosperous prefectures in the continent soon.
They're not even in a position to fawn over someone.
Such blatant empty promises are only believed by colleagues who haven't yet grasped reality.
"Keep it up!"
Mo Yuan patted the excited Yao Xuan Envoy on the shoulder with a smile, feeling quite pleased as well.
The action document to be submitted to the new prefect later will finally be written with more confidence.
