435: Chapter 156: Xuanyuan Personally Confers!_3 435: Chapter 156: Xuanyuan Personally Confers!_3 The elderly Tianli, with his hair and beard both standing on end, leaped up and in an instant transformed into ‘a meek old sheep,’ concealing the injuries on his face, and approached the two middle-aged men.

In a gentle voice, the Elder Tianli called out:

“Ping’an, Dazhi, come, do not fear, it was I who disturbed your cultivation.”

Hiding behind a man-height vase, Li Dazhi said with a trembling voice, “Senior, could you act normal?

Please, that was really a reflex in a moment of desperation.”

“These two are…”

“Dad,” Li Ping’an hurriedly exclaimed, “Yellow Emperor Your Majesty, Divine Minister Fenghou!”

Li Dazhi was stunned for a moment, glanced at Li Ping’an, and then back at the middle-aged man who was smiling at him.

He took a deep breath, inhaling some immortal essence, and turned to retrieve from his sleeve…

a black, flowing wig.

Afterward, Li Dazhi, with a few more traces of an ethereal air, holding the hem of his Daoist robe, came running back with a beaming smile.

Just as the two were about to kneel in worship, the Yellow Emperor Xuanyuan spoke:

“No need for formalities, I am merely out for a stroll, and having heard Tianli praise you and your son continuously, I came to have a look for myself.

”

“It seems you are worrying over being oppressed by the great sects?

“I will give you a few calligraphic paintings later, just hang them at your sect’s gate.

Those people should show some respect for my sake and will not invade your sect again.”

With that, the Yellow Emperor Xuanyuan’s gaze fell upon Li Dazhi.

“Fellow Daoist Dazhi is a Great Fate Holder, and two Great Fate Holders must not come into contact, lest disaster brew.

Could Fellow Daoist Dazhi step back for the moment while I have a casual chat with your son?”

Li Ping’an instantly understood.

His conversation with his father must have been overheard by the Yellow Emperor Xuanyuan!

Li Dazhi immediately said, “Please talk, Your Majesty, I will take my leave now!”

However, Fenghou proactively stepped forward, gesturing politely to Li Dazhi: “Fellow Daoist, this way please.

I have a matter to discuss with you concerning the daughter of Brother Li Mu.”

Turning his head to glance at Elder Tianli, the Yellow Emperor Xuanyuan frowned and said, “Dali, you also wish to eavesdrop on the secret conversation of the Human Emperor?”

“Ah!

This subordinate shall retire!”

Elder Tianli, somewhat concerned, glanced at Li Ping’an before bowing his head and following along.

Thus, a slow wave of Dao Charm settled down, leaving only the Yellow Emperor Xuanyuan and Li Ping’an together.

An hour later, the Dao Charm finally dissipated, and the Yellow Emperor Xuanyuan had vanished.

Fenghou had already met with Ningning Mu, asking whether she was willing to become his adopted daughter.

Ningning Mu was initially reluctant as she did not recognize the person before her and did not want to get too involved with the identity of Li Mu’s daughter, but she could not dismiss the face of her future father-in-law and eventually bowed her head in agreement under Li Dazhi’s persistently winking at her.

With this matter concluded, Fenghou, along with Elder Tianli, departed without further discussion.

Another hour passed.

Elder Tianli tore through heaven and earth, appearing above Dong’an City, holding a decree in his hands, seemingly at a loss.

“What does His Majesty intend by this?”

Spreading out the divine cloth lingering with the Great Luo Dao Rhyme in his hands, Elder Tianli looked at the inscriptions, truly puzzled.

[The Ancestors’ Successor, Xuanyuan Zhao declares:

Once the Divine Minister Li Mu, who served with utmost dedication and fought Chiyou to his death, leaving his daughter to wander in suffering.

My heart is uneasy.

Now I bestow the Treasure Robe and appoint her as a fifth-rank immortal official to serve at the Xuanyuan Palace and allow her to move freely there.

Wanyun Sect was the first to innovate Artifact Refining, seeking blessings for all cultivators, and has protected Li Mu’s daughter, thereby earning merit.

As a special commendation, I bestow the plaque ‘Inheriting the Past and Opening the Future.’

Wanyun Sect Disciple Li Ping’an, who contributed new policies with excellent results and possessing talents that benefit the world, yet is impulsive and unstable in temperament, requires further experience at the grassroots level.

Therefore, I hereby appoint him as a third-rank patrol envoy and commander of ten soldiers, to serve at the Heaven’s Ruins.]

Generally speaking, only when a leader in the Eastern Alliance reaches the level of Great Commander, they are appointed as a second-rank commanding officer.

A third-rank patrol envoy and a commander of ten soldiers?

Ah, what?

What on earth did Li Ping’an discuss with His Majesty during that half-hour chat that led to such an odd commendation?

A commander of ten soldiers appointed personally by the Human Emperor?

That is indeed going deep into the grassroots level!
