Chapter 497: I Want to Become a Charlatan and Get Promoted Again

The so-called "Divine Decree" is the official order issued personally by the gods in charge of this world's battlefield, which is currently held by the Lan Yun Divine General.

Even powerful beings like the Zhurong Divine General are not qualified to issue Divine Decrees.

Usually, only the main and deputy commanders in each war zone will receive Divine Decrees.

And this Divine Decree arrived in the war zone just two hours after the end of the war, which can be considered "swift."

There is no doubt.

This is definitely the result of the Lan Yun Divine General's involvement.

This is also the benefit of having connections.

At this moment, when Cheng Han heard the words of the Xuan Shi in the central courtyard, he gained a new understanding of the Nine Yan Xuan Seal's function regarding matters of one's own fortune and misfortune.

"If an event is about to happen soon and the clues are not too obscure, the predictions of the Nine Yan Xuan Seal are relatively accurate."

Although the limitation of "not too obscure clues" is significant, it is still a very practical function.

Let's give a simple example.

In a highly intense battlefield, due to having too many things on hand, one might overlook certain clues, but the Xuan Seal will definitely remember them clearly.

And at a critical moment, if the Nine Yan Xuan Seal gives a timely warning, it might save one's life.

Cheng Han reached out and took the metal token, but did not immediately activate it.

He glanced at the face of the Xuan Shi and quietly touched the new Xuan Seal with his spiritual energy, causing his mental value to decrease by 4 points.

The Nine Yan Xuan Seal can not only predict one's own fortune and misfortune but also predict the fortune and misfortune of others, provided that one directly observes the other party.

After a moment.

The Nine Yan Xuan Seal fluctuated, and a message surged out.

Cheng Han looked at the Xuan Shi and asked with a smile, "Your name is 'Gu Jian,' right?"

The Xuan Shi was stunned for a moment and answered with a flattered expression, "Yes, sir, I am Gu Jian. May I ask if you have any orders?"

This guy obviously didn't expect that the esteemed Deputy Commander would remember his name, a person highly valued by the Divine General.

Speaking of which.

It is quite interesting that one Xuan Shi feels flattered because of another Xuan Shi.

Cheng Han's gaze flickered and he continued, "I have a small suggestion. It would be best for you not to temper your Xuan Domain tonight."

Gu Jian looked confused.

He never expected that the Deputy Commander would mention such a thing.

In fact.

According to the prediction given by the Nine Yan Xuan Seal, this guy had a small accident while tempering his Xuan Domain.

Some types of Xuan Seals are too active, such as fire-type Xuan Seals. If one fails to control the Xuan power, it can easily cause a mental impact.

However.

There are pros and cons to everything.

Although fire-type Xuan Seals are a bit too active, they are easier to cultivate.

Some types with lower activity, such as stone spirit Xuan Seals, are easier to restrain the Xuan power but more difficult to cultivate.

Cheng Han didn't say anything else, just waved his hand and said, "Alright, you may leave."

Gu Jian suppressed his astonishment and respectfully saluted before leaving.

Cheng Han watched his figure and shook his head imperceptibly, "If he doesn't suffer a setback, he won't be willing to listen to advice."

No need for deduction.

He could also guess that Gu Jian would definitely try it tonight.

The reason is simple.

The East Li war zone has won a great victory, and the rewards for the Xuan Shi will be distributed tonight.

How could Gu Jian resist the temptation of trying the Source Xuan Crystal?

Moreover.

This warning is really inexplicable. As a Xuan Shi, Gu Jian also has his own pride. How could he take it seriously?

Therefore.

This guy will definitely stubbornly hit a wall.

Cheng Han muttered to himself in his heart, "Well, it's a good opportunity to promote the image of Gu Jian."

This is not a sudden idea.

It was deliberate.

After comprehending the Nine Yan Xuan Seal, he made up his mind to take the path of a "charlatan."

Cheng Han's lips curled up slightly, "As long as the 'charlatan' image is deeply rooted in people's hearts, it will be easier for others to accept when I publicly predict things in the future."

Otherwise, everything would have to be explained, which would require a lot of words.

In comparison.

As a charlatan, it can save a lot of trouble.

Cheng Han thought of Xingyan Divine General and felt even more regretful: "This subordinate must have made the same consideration and chose to become the charlatan in the hearts of many divine generals."

He held the Divine Judgment Order and inputted a spiritual force.

"Buzz~"

The metal token trembled slightly and spontaneously broke free from his hand, floating in mid-air.

After a moment.

The Divine Judgment Order emitted a hazy glow, and lines of white light condensed into words emerged from the token, forming rows of text.

Cheng Han only glanced at it and immediately showed a surprised expression.

In the first line of the text, several words were written prominently - concurrently serving as the inspector of the war zone.

The so-called "inspector of the war zone" is simply responsible for inspecting various war zones.

The attendant next to him moved his ears and sent his congratulations with a surprised face: "Congratulations to Vice General Cheng for being promoted to the inspector!"

Cheng Han smiled and said nothing.

The inspector of the war zone is a position with considerable power, representing the authority of the divine generals and having the right to intervene in various affairs of the war zone.

To some extent.

The level of this position is even higher than that of the general.

Because of one thing - the inspector bears the significant responsibility of "supervising the general".

If the inspector deems it necessary, they can submit a letter to the Divine Council to request the removal of the general from their position.

This is very powerful.

To put it bluntly, as long as Cheng Han is still in the Dongli War Zone, any decision made by Jian Wanli in the future must take his opinion into consideration.

And this.

Obviously, it is the result of Cheng Han attaching himself to Lan Yun Divine General's "beautiful long legs".

Cheng Han knew it well. If it weren't for Lan Yun Divine General's secret manipulation, how could such a good thing that even Xuan Du coveted fall on his head?

In addition.

This Divine Judgment Order also listed other benefits.

For example - a reward of five thousand pieces of Yuan Xuanjing for defeating the Black Scale Tribe's army.

This is a reward for the great victory over the Black Scale Tribe's army.

And also - an increase in annual salary to three thousand two hundred pieces of Yuan Xuanjing for being promoted to the inspector.

For ordinary cultivators, this is definitely a astronomical reward.

Cheng Han had long achieved "freedom in Yuan Xuanjing" and had so much Yuan Xuanjing that he almost couldn't use it all, so he didn't particularly care about it.

He put away the document and muttered to himself, "The Divine Judgment Order didn't mention the East Wind Profound Weapon. Lan Yun Divine General wouldn't bring this up for discussion in the 'Star River Divine Council', would he?"

If that's the case.

It means that the East Wind Profound Weapon will definitely reach the ears of His Highness the Divine Sovereign.

It also means that there will be even greater rewards in the future.

In any case.

This is definitely a great thing.

Dongling War Fortress.

War Zone Courtyard.

The explosive news of Vice General Cheng's promotion to the inspector of the war zone spread like a whirlwind throughout the entire Dongli War Zone in a very short period of time.

Jian Wanli's feelings were quite complicated.

After all, he was just an ordinary cultivator who climbed to the top of the general's position. It was impossible for him not to envy or be jealous.

But in the general's heart, there was also deep gratitude.

Before the start of this great war, Cheng Han took a domineering stance, snatched the initiative at the courtyard meeting, and suppressed the courtyard with his own strength.

Honestly speaking.

Jian Wanli was a little uncomfortable.

Even if you have Lan Yun Divine General's support behind you, even if you created the Flame Eagle and your reputation is known even by the Divine Sovereign, isn't this a bit too aggressive?

But the general endured it.

Looking back now, Jian Wanli was very grateful that he didn't conflict with Cheng Han for the dominance of the war affairs.

Otherwise, where would there be any good fruits to enjoy now?

Jian Wanli thought for a moment and shouted, "Someone, prepare the Profound Boat immediately! I want to personally congratulate Inspector Cheng!"

"Yes!"

Although it sounded a bit strange for the general to personally congratulate the inspector.

But from another perspective, isn't it natural for the general to congratulate the inspector?

Not embarrassing at all!
