The next day, early in the morning.
The Demon Suppression Bureau then sent a notice to Lu Changsheng's home.
After Lu Changsheng got up, washed, and opened it, he took a look.
"Ten days later, Lu Changsheng will be promoted to the Xuan-level Demon Suppression Envoy."
Several large characters were printed on the letter, and the seal of the deputy hall master was also engraved on it.
Just then, Fang Qing and her brother suddenly came over.
Seeing the document in Lu Changsheng's hand, his face was full of surprise.
"Brother Changsheng is going to be promoted again?"
Fang Tao looked incredulous.
He knew that Lu Changsheng had just been promoted not long ago, but he didn't expect that he would be promoted again.
And after this promotion, he is only one step away from becoming the deputy hall master.
This discovery made the two of them extremely happy.
"I'll get some good wine and food to celebrate."
Fang Qing walked towards the kitchen with a smile on her face.
Lu Changsheng put away the documents and went to the study again.
When the panel was opened, a blue light curtain appeared in the void.
Source energy points: 260.
After a few days of digging, the spiritual objects have grown a little again.
Almost every day when he wakes up, he sees his resources increasing, which makes him very happy.
"Add some."
He no longer hesitated and immediately headed towards the plus sign behind [Xuanyuan Zhan].
"Buzz..."
A mysterious wave came into his mind again, as if a strong man was practicing swordsmanship all the time.
[After ten years of hard training, you have finally mastered the Xuanyuan Slash to a minor level...]
Skill: [Xuanyuan Slash] (Minor Success)
Energy points: 60.
After this improvement in his swordsmanship, his attack power increased a little bit again.
This gave Lu Changsheng a little more confidence about the strange situation that was about to happen.
...
Time passed slowly, and soon ten days had passed.
This day was Lu Changsheng's promotion ceremony.
Since becoming an official demon-suppressing envoy, he has completed many tasks, and this strange natural disaster led to his promotion.
This is unique among all civilian warriors.
After receiving the news, a large number of warriors in Changping County rushed to tell each other.
I never thought that Lu Changsheng, a civilian warrior, would actually take this step.
This also gave countless ordinary people hope, and the entire Changping County began to boil, as if it was a festival.
Countless people walked to the central square of the county town, ready to watch the ceremony.
Early in the morning, Fang Qing and her brother got up early and waited in the yard with excitement on their faces.
After Lu Changsheng washed up, he rushed to the central square of the county town with the two of them.
The square was already filled with civilians watching this incident.
With the addition of some ordinary warriors, the scene was extremely lively.
As for colleagues from the Demon Suppression Bureau and warriors from the Black Armor Army, many of them also came and watched the ceremony on both sides of the platform.
As the protagonist of today, Lu Changsheng was dressed in a green official uniform and looked quite majestic.
After arriving at the central square, he slowly walked towards the platform.
Soon, Qin Ruobing and three other deputy hall masters and a group of family warriors arrived at the scene.
However, the warriors from the four major families all had an inexplicable expression on their faces.
When everyone arrived, the promotion ceremony officially began.
Yao Chen, the clerk of the Demon Suppression Department, slowly stepped forward, raised his voice, and said loudly:
"Lu Changsheng, the Yellow-rank Demon Suppression Officer, has made remarkable contributions. With the approval of the prefectural government, he is hereby promoted to..."
"slow!"
Before Yao Chen finished shouting, a deep voice echoed throughout the venue.
Everyone's attention was drawn over there.
A middle-aged man in white came out. He was a warrior from the Chen family.
Lu Changsheng stood quietly in the center of the platform, with his hands behind his back and a calm expression.
"The show is finally about to begin."
He and Qin Ruobing had already guessed that this day would come.
If you have that powerful weapon in your hand, the other party will only bring shame upon themselves.
The group of warriors from the aristocratic families around him thought that Lu Changsheng was guilty and all showed a playful look on their faces.
They already knew what would happen today.
On the contrary, many civilian warriors showed an indignant look on their faces.
Many people have heard about what happened to Lu Changsheng, and many people are quite disgusted by the sudden attack by the powerful families today.
In the distance, the eyes of the two deputy hall masters, Xiao Tianci and He Chunlin, moved slightly. After looking at each other, they already had a plan in mind.
"What is this lord's business? Today is a critical moment for Lord Lu's promotion..."
Yao Chen looked displeased.
The middle-aged man spoke directly and loudly without hesitation: "I heard that only Lord Lu returned from this mission, and he encountered a rare natural disaster. I feel very suspicious..."
"What's the doubt?"
Yao Chen continued to ask, and the word "unhappy" was almost written on his face.
He belongs to the Qin Ruobing lineage, so naturally he has a close relationship with Lu Changsheng.
"Five people left, but only one returned. This is the biggest doubt."
The middle-aged man's tone was very heavy.
Although he didn't say it explicitly, anyone with a discerning eye could see that what he meant was that Lu Changsheng was closely related to the deaths of the four people.
When everyone on the field heard this, their faces turned grim.
This is simply implying that if Lu Changsheng doesn't produce any evidence, it will prove that the other party is up to something.
Many civilian warriors showed indignation on their faces.
"Don't civilian warriors deserve to return safely? What kind of bullshit logic is this?"
"Only the safe return of the warriors from the noble families is considered normal? The return of the civilian warriors is considered a sinister one."
A group of civilian warriors were very angry.
They have been bullied by the powerful families for a long time, and now the other party has even lost all their dignity.
Since Lu Changsheng's rise to prominence, many ordinary warriors in the Demon Suppression Division have regarded him as their goal.
Xiao Tianci and He Chunlin also looked at Qin Ruobing with meaningful expressions.
"What does Palace Master Qin think?"
Since several of them are in high positions, it is naturally difficult for them to say some things too directly.
However, anyone with a discerning eye could hear the hidden meaning.
The simple thing is that Lu Changsheng is your subordinate, Palace Master Qin. Do you want to explain this matter?
Upon seeing this, a group of warriors from the four major families became excited.
As long as Lu Changsheng starts to explain, it will only make things worse. Some things cannot be explained at all.
Everyone waited for Lu Changsheng to speak.
For a moment, the field was extremely quiet, and you could hear a pin drop.
Fang Qing and her brother also looked at Lu Changsheng with concern and clenched their fists tightly.
A group of ordinary people around were watching quietly. This kind of scene is almost rare.
Lu Changsheng smiled lightly. This was the moment he had been waiting for.
If he took the initiative to disclose the information, it would seem that he was too petty. Four people had already died, and it would be inappropriate to expose the scandal.
But now it's different. This is the other party's request and has nothing to do with me.
Lu Changsheng calmly took out a photo stone from his hand. This stone belonged to Chen Qiushi.
He gently stimulated it with his Qi and blood, and a curtain of light appeared in the void.
A large number of figures appeared on the light screen, carrying out the events of the day.
A group of people stared at the void, hoping to discover something.
Then the scenes of the four men choosing their wives and interacting with their wives gradually emerged.
A group of people finally felt something was wrong.
"Chen Lang, will you stay with me forever?"
"Yes."
…
As time goes by.
The communication between the two became more and more frequent until the last day.
A black shadow flashed by, and the image left in the void suddenly stopped.
"idiot."
People from the four major families started cursing.
It is better to fight directly than to sit and wait for death and choose the route arranged by natural disasters. Even if you die in the end, it will not be so shameful.
Many family warriors even blushed and avoided eye contact.
No matter how stupid a group of people are, they know what happened.
A group of civilian warriors nearby looked at the people from the four major families with strange expressions.
Now the four major families have become completely famous, and their names will probably spread throughout the capital.
Even Xiao Tianci and the other man looked extremely unhappy.
The two of them felt ashamed that such a thing had happened to their own family.
"Do you have any objections?"
Qin Ruobing smiled faintly and scanned the entire audience.
After this incident, she not only saved her face, but also increased her own power.
No one from the four major families dared to look at him and lowered their heads.
"Where are Palace Master Xiao and Palace Master He?"
She looked at Xiao Tianci and the other man with a gentle tone.
"We have no objection."
Xiao Tianci and the other man smiled awkwardly and cursed the people from the four major families in their hearts.
"Then let's continue with the promotion ceremony."
Qin Ruobing continued speaking, her eyes full of majesty.
Without anyone else obstructing him, the subsequent promotion ceremony went very smoothly.
"Promote Lu Changsheng to the Xuan-level Demon Suppression Envoy."
Yao Chen immediately shouted loudly.
The loud voice resounded through the sky.
After the other party finished shouting, he walked towards Lu Changsheng and handed the appointment document to Lu Changsheng.
"Congratulations, Lord Lu. I will deliver the official seal and uniform later."
Yao Chen bowed with a smile on his face.
"Congratulations, Lord Lu."
At this time, a group of civilian warriors also gathered around and began to congratulate.
Such a young Xuan-level demon-suppressing envoy has a promising future, so everyone dares not neglect him.
"You are so kind."
Lord Lu returned the greeting to everyone.
Soon, the crowd on the field gradually dispersed.
Lu Changsheng took Fang Qing and her brother towards their own courtyard.
Along the way, Fang Qing and the other person's faces flushed with excitement.
"Brother Changsheng, you were so impressive just now."
Fang Tao looked envious.
After nearly two years of martial arts training, he finally entered the middle stage of skin refining. His talent was not too high.
Instead, Fang Qing directly cultivated to perfection in skin refining, which surprised the two of them.
Lu Changsheng didn't expect the two to be very strong, as long as they could protect himself.
As Lu Changsheng's promotion ceremony ended, the news about this matter instantly set the whole city on fire.
Chen Qiushi and his companions became famous in the county and became a topic of conversation among people after dinner.
At the same time, Lu Changsheng's fame gradually became famous.
Many labels were also placed on his head.
Kuai Dao, a talented warrior among commoners, the fastest promoted Xuan-level demon-suppressing envoy in history...
For a time, Lu Changsheng became the target of pursuit by all the civilian warriors in the city, and countless people hoped to become a Xuan-level demon-suppressing envoy one day.
After Lu Changsheng returned home, he kept a low profile and ignored the disturbances from the outside world.
He has been practicing martial arts hard at home, or going to the mountains to collect spiritual objects, and his life is very fulfilling.
He doesn't care about becoming famous.
For him, strength is the foundation.
Being too famous is not a good thing. He plans to take some time to calm down and deal with the strange situations in the future.
Time passes slowly.
Half a month passed in a flash.
During this period of time, the city has been extremely peaceful, and the people from the Wenxiang Sect have not caused any trouble.
It seems like he is preparing for something big.
Lu Changsheng has also been monitoring the county magistrate's mansion. That group of people would send a black cat to the county magistrate's mansion every few days.
Obviously, the other party's plan has been moving forward.
