Chapter 1034: Chapter 559: Ascension, Heavenly Divine Envoy! Being able to maintain the current situation is already quite good. Several Divine Envoys from the Heavenly Patrol Bureau, upon learning that the matter was finally settled, sent someone to invite him to discuss things at the Heavenly Patrol Bureau. Chen Yuan originally intended to see Ouyang Zhi off, but he had to give up, allowing Ouyang Zhi to leave on his own, while he set off for the headquarters of the Heavenly Patrol Bureau. As soon as he entered, he received a multitude of scrutinizing glances. Among them were his previous subordinates and many colleagues he had only met briefly, all cupping their fists in salute and bowing, saying: “Greet the Divine Envoy, sir!” “Greet the Divine Envoy, sir!” “Greet the Divine Envoy, sir!” The Heavenly Divine Envoy is undoubtedly one of the top five in the Heavenly Patrol Bureau, so if the Great Governor is absent, these few Divine Envoys are the ones to take charge of worldly matters. Everyone, whether Green Envoys or Golden Envoys, was nominally under his command. Chen Yuan moved his Divine Thought, an invisible Heaven and Earth Primordial Energy lifted all those present, he simply said a few words, then vanished from sight under the envious and respectful gazes of the crowd. When entering the Heavenly Patrol Hall again, Chen Yuan no longer needed to go through announcements; rather, to congratulate him, all the Heavenly Patrol Envoys and Patrol Guards on guard bowed and saluted, calling ‘Divine Envoy, sir’. Upon entering the Heavenly Patrol Hall, four gazes instantly fell on Chen Yuan, and after some consideration, Chen Yuan took the lead in cupping his fists, saying: “Greetings, dear sirs.” “Haha, Chen Divine Envoy, you are now of equal rank with us and also hold the title of Marquis; I don’t dare to accept being called ‘sir’,” Wu Tianxi laughed heartily. “Wu An Marquis, you and I are now colleagues, you shouldn’t address me that way.” At that moment Zhang Yantong also smiled and nodded while stroking his beard. He was sincerely happy for Chen Yuan, especially given the Emperor’s intention to suppress him, yet he could still rise against the tide to become a Divine Envoy, which was truly remarkable. He was somewhat impressed. But merely impressed, without jealousy. Thinking that Chen Yuan exchanged his life for being the Heavenly Divine Envoy, killing a Refining God Peak elder of the Xiang Family, which was a perilous feat indeed! Even he didn’t have such confidence. The achievements he has now are well-deserved! This time, Xiao Jing indicated for Chen Yuan to take the left-hand position, which is the seat for the Heavenly Divine Envoy, upon first glance, even higher than other Divine Envoys. Originally, Xiao Jing had intended to place Chen Yuan at the second right-hand position, given Chen Yuan still had a shallow foundation and some distance in cultivation compared to other Divine Envoys. But that was collectively refused by the other Divine Envoys. The Heavenly Divine Envoy position was held by Xiao Jing himself for decades, now that he ascended to the position of Great Governor, they wouldn’t dare place it lower. This would be inappropriate. It may seem inappropriate for Chen Yuan to sit in this position, but after careful consideration, anyone other than him occupying this position would be more inappropriate. Zhang Yantong, Wu Tianxi, and Zuo Tiancheng had been equals for decades, so they wouldn’t let anyone else occupy this position. And arguing, or even fighting for a position, would make them appear petty, so it was better for the junior Chen Yuan to take it. After all, in terms of rank, Chen Yuan was stronger than them. In terms of potential, he was far ahead of them. After various considerations, this current scene came to be. Chen Yuan hesitated for a moment, seeing Zhang Yantong nod slightly at him, he then moved forward, swirled his robe, and slowly sat down, smiling calmly: “Thank you, Divine Envoys.” “Today you officially take office; this Great Governor will not yet assign your duties. For the upcoming period, you should familiarize yourself with the responsibilities of some Government divisions within the Heavenly Patrol Bureau, and then you will be entrusted with certain matters.” The positions in the Heavenly Patrol Bureau are not just the various local Heavenly Patrol Bureaus below, but also the headquarters’ many Government divisions, forming an almost self-sufficient behemoth. The strength is exceptionally formidable; Chen Yuan must first meticulously understand this, which is customary. “Yes, I follow orders.” Then, under Xiao Jing’s indication, Zhang Yantong began telling Chen Yuan about the division of some Government bureaus since the establishment of the Heavenly Patrol Bureau. Zuo Tiancheng and Wu Tianxi also intermittently supplemented. Until fifteen minutes passed, Zhang Yantong finally finished speaking. “There are many important documents in the headquarters of the Heavenly Patrol Bureau, you should review them recently….” Xiao Jing said with a faint smile. After chatting for a while in the Heavenly Patrol Hall, with Zhang Yantong hosting, they had a small gathering within the Heavenly Patrol Bureau; the atmosphere seemed very harmonious on the surface. It was impossible to see any grudges among them. After the banquet dispersed, several Divine Envoys successively took their leave, and Zhang Yantong gave him a glance before heading home, leaving only Chen Yuan and Xiao Jing alone. “Since the name of the Heavenly Divine Envoy was established, there has been a chasm between other three lower-level Divine Envoys and him. Chen Yuan, you’re a person with potential; don’t disappoint this Great Governor.” Xiao Jing encouraged with his hands behind his back. “Rest assured, Great Governor.” Chen Yuan answered gravely. Indeed, his nature is not one to remain subordinate to others. Yet in the confines of the Heavenly Patrol Bureau, he’s hit a ceiling, and even if Xiao Jing were to be transferred, he couldn’t ascend further. Therefore, after assuming this position, his subsequent plotting involves how to overthrow this decadent court. However, it must remain secret; he can’t share it with others. “This Great Governor believes you can achieve it, haha…” Xiao Jing gave Chen Yuan a meaningful look, then waved his hand, stepped out, causing the void to tremble, and then vanished without a trace. Leaving Chen Yuan alone. He curved his lips into a wanton smile, his gaze growing increasingly cold… It got quite late today; mainly because this book encountered some issues… It nearly got banned entirely, and this afternoon I’ve been continually revising and cutting, don’t know if it will pass. Please do support as much as you can! Hopefully, this book can continue on completely…
