Chapter 106: This Grand Envoy Is Not Very Reliable!
Seeing that no one had any objections, Lu Xuan nodded in satisfaction.
"Hmm, very good, it seems no one has any objections."
Originally, Lu Xuan thought there might be a rebellious figure, and he had planned to make an example of them to establish authority.
"Zhao Sheng, Qian Hao, Li Daren, and Mr. He stay, everyone else can leave."
After everyone had left, only the four of them remained on the chairs on either side of the hall.
Zhao Sheng and the other two sat side by side on the chairs on the right side, and at this moment, they looked as if they were dreaming, their expressions filled with amazement.
Good gracious.
The mysterious elder they brought back quietly assumed the position of the Xuan Master.
Fortunately, Mr. He had already informed the three of them in advance yesterday.
Otherwise, they would have thought the mysterious elder was joking with them.
"Mr. He, I am the one who decides the task levels among the Profound Bird Guards of White Dao Prefecture, right?"
He Yan responded to Lu Xuan’s question without hesitation: "Yes, Xuan Master!"
"Very good, now draft a Fierce-level task for me."
?????
Upon hearing this, He Yan and the other three glanced at Lu Xuan, clueless about the Xuan Master’s intention.
"Li Daren, Qian Hao, you two go to Qingyun County for a while and look after the Lu Family Pharmacy for me."
"Carry it out as a Fierce-level task, set the period to three months."
Lu Xuan initially intended to relocate his father and the Lu Family Pharmacy to the city mansion.
However, after careful consideration, Lu Xuan decided to personally revisit Qingyun County after some time.
Lu Family Pharmacy?
He Yan thought to himself, what connection does this Lu Family Pharmacy have with the Xuan Master?
Why would the Xuan Master be so concerned, even assigning two Yellow-level Profound Bird Guards to personally guard it?
Zhao Sheng and the other two were just as perplexed as He Yan.
However, Qian Hao and Li Daren didn’t deliberate for long and quickly stood up to accept the order.
"Yes, Xuan Master!"
That is a Fierce-level task, and upon completion, there is a reward of lower-grade Heaven and Earth Spiritual Objects.
The Fierce-level task issued by Lu Xuan isn’t just giving them a lower-grade Heaven and Earth Spiritual Object for nothing?
"By the way, also count the reward from your task of eliminating the scheming faces in Dengfeng County."
"Qian Hao, this Master observes that you have nearly perfected your Blood Refining Realm, almost ready to break through to complete the Blood Refining Realm."
"Later, go to the Profound Bird Guard storeroom and collect three sets of nourishing medical herbs."
After glancing at Qian Hao, Lu Xuan calmly spoke.
Lu Xuan observed these people while in Taiping Town and found them commendable.
He assigned them to look after the Lu Family for a while before he plans to personally return to the Lu Family after his duties.
Li Chengfeng hinted to Lu Xuan before leaving.
With the great change in heaven and earth, the extraordinary abnormalities, and the drastic changes among those beasts, the archived records are no longer applicable.
Therefore, to be on the safe side, Lu Xuan decided to send two Yellow-level Profound Bird Guards to Qingyun County to protect the Lu Family.
Lu Xuan looked at He Yan who was still absent-minded, then gently began to speak.
"Mr. He, you have no objections, right?"
"Xuan Master, there are absolutely no objections from my side."
Seeing Lu Xuan’s gaze fall on him, He Yan quickly voiced his strong approval of Lu Xuan’s decision.
As soon as he finished speaking, He Yan appeared somewhat troubled, struggling to express something.
"But......"
At this point, Lu Xuan unabashedly looked directly at He Yan.
This scrutinizing gaze made He Yan feel as though he was sitting on pins and needles.
"But what, Mr. He!"
"Whatever it is, you might as well speak more clearly."
The atmosphere in the hall became silent following Lu Xuan’s words.
Under the subtle pressure from Lu Xuan, He Yan finally began to explain to Lu Xuan.
"To reply to the Xuan Master, I just wanted to remind you of something."
"The Black Feather Guards from the Celestial Capital are coming to White Dao Prefecture in less than two months."
"I’m concerned that they might discover this issue."
"It would be troublesome to handle them at that time."
This was the cause of He Yan’s concern.
The task levels among the Profound Bird Guards are not decided at random.
All task levels are determined based on the degree of difficulty.
This Xuan Master casually issued a Fierce-level task, assigning two Yellow-level Profound Bird Guards to guard the Lu Family Pharmacy.
It’s obviously against protocol.
If this were permissible, there wouldn’t be enough Heaven and Earth Spiritual Object quotas for the Profound Bird Guards of White Dao Prefecture.
"The Black Feather Guards?"
Li Chengfeng had mentioned the Black Feather Guards to Lu Xuan before.
A group similar to auditors, they’re a secret organization in the Great Xia’s imperial palace, confidants of the Great Xia Emperor.
"If it’s them, Mr. He, you don’t have to worry, I will handle it myself."
Lu Xuan does not wish for anyone to interfere with his work.
When the Black Feather Guards arrive, he can easily find a reason to dismiss them.
If necessary, he could use Li Chengfeng as a scapegoat.
After all, Li Chengfeng once told him to act without hesitation, saying that he would explain it to the Celestial Capital Profound Bird Guard.
"Then I shall comply with the Xuan Master’s arrangements."
Having said this, He Yan discarded his concerns and decided to proceed according to Lu Xuan’s instruction.
"Hmm!"
"There’s one more thing."
"Mr. He, first go and write a letter, and send a few people to the Celestial Capital Profound Bird Guard Headquarters."
"Detail the required Heaven and Earth Spiritual Object quota for the Profound Bird Guard of White Dao Prefecture."
"For now, set it as one supreme-grade Heaven and Earth Spiritual Object, five top-grade Heaven and Earth Spiritual Objects, twenty mid-grade Heaven and Earth Spiritual Objects, and one hundred lower-grade Heaven and Earth Spiritual Objects."
"What!"
"This......"
"This....."
Upon hearing this, Mr. He opened his eyes wide, and, overwhelmed, he blurted out inappropriately.
"Xuan Master, this cannot be done recklessly."
"The people from the Celestial Capital would surely not agree."
Supreme-grade Heaven and Earth Spiritual Objects, top-grade Heaven and Earth Spiritual Objects....
He Yan was at a loss for words.
Such things are very precious even at the Celestial Capital Profound Bird Guard Headquarters.
There’s no way the Profound Bird Guards of White Dao Prefecture could get their hands on them.
Seeing He Yan, along with Zhao Sheng and the others losing composure, Lu Xuan began to ponder.
Perhaps he asked for too much?
"Since that’s the case, let’s reduce it slightly."
"Set it at three top-grade Heaven and Earth Spiritual Objects, twenty mid-grade Heaven and Earth Spiritual Objects, one hundred lower-grade Heaven and Earth Spiritual Objects."
Seeing Lu Xuan display a very earnest thinking expression, He Yan’s mouth twitched, indicating speechlessness.
"Yes, Xuan Master, I will carry out the instructions promptly."
This Xuan Master, why does he seem unreliable to me?
No matter.
When the sky falls, there are taller people to hold it up.
He Yan silently offered a second of silence for the old guy, Li Chengfeng.
