Chapter 629: Chapter 425, your humble official Tao Qingyuan, pays respects to the Commander-in-Chief!
“Hmm, not bad.”
This was Jiang He’s response, still so succinct, still so indifferent.
Afterward, Chen Yuan asked with great concern about the exact location of the Dragon Vein. In his view, since that Moluo predecessor was able to establish the Taoist Divine Palace,
and according to what Su Ziyue had said about incarnating into sothing, it seed reasonable to assu he must know where he was suppressed. The question was just to confirm it.
But contrary to his expectations, after pondering for a while, Jiang He did not directly reveal the location of the Dragon Vein. According to him, Dragon Veins are related to the nation’s fate,
concealing heaven’s secrets.
Even Moluo himself did not know where exactly he was suppressed, only that it was within the Imperial City. Because the Dragon Veins are not just located in one place, or rather,
they are vast and not confined to a single location.
However, after deduction by several Daoists of the Taoist Divine Palace, they pinpointed a few places most likely to be where Moluo was suppressed, and all these places were within the Imperial City.
That was also why the Daoists of the Taoist Divine Palace hoped Chen Yuan could beco the leader of the Imperial City. They wanted him to have a convenient identity to investigate these places within two months.
It had been ntioned before that the Imperial City is very large, no less than Tangshan Prefecture City.
The Imperial City contains mountain ranges for the Emperor’s mausoleum, and most places are actually unusable. But even without those, the Imperial City is still vast.
Through the conversation, Chen Yuan committed the locations Jiang He ntioned to mory, feeling sowhat tricky about it. One of these places was near the Harem.
That area is where the Emperor’s concubines reside, and without imperial permission, it would be very difficult for outsiders to gain entry.
…
…
The next day.
Early morning.
Chen Yuan casually had so breakfast in the inn and after washing up, he dressed himself neatly in his Black Cloud Clothing as the Heavenly Patrol Green Envoy, looking at his reflection in the mirror.
No matter who, they would have to admire and say, handso!
The headquarters of the Heavenly Patrol Bureau was near the Imperial City, actually considered within its ambit, much like so of the governntal offices close to the Imperial City.
One reason is the convenience; the other is that the Imperial City is large enough to accommodate these governntal offices.
Compared to the ordinary Heavenly Patrol offices in each State, the headquarters in the Capital is undoubtedly more magnificent. It is a very impressive Governnt office encompassing a vast area.
The Heavenly Patrol Bureau is self-sufficient, even having a Heavenly Prison for detaining captured Martial Artists.
This place also made many people tremble with fear, with hardly anyone daring to approach. Chen Yuan walked up with an indifferent expression. When a Heavenly Patrol Guard saw the Green Envoy uniform on Chen Yuan, he imdiately ca forward to inquire.
When he found out that he was the renowned Demon Sword Chen Yuan, the leading Heavenly Patrol commander’s eyes lit up as he walked forward with a hand clasp and said:
“Are you the Green Envoy Chen?”
“Indeed, it is Chen.”
Chen Yuan did not disguise himself and handed over his Green Envoy Token right away.
After verifying the token, the Reach Profound Cultivation Heavenly Patrol Green Envoy commander returned it to Chen Yuan with great politeness. Although they both held the position of Green Envoy,
there was a massive gap between them.
Not to ntion Chen Yuan had already achieved Core Formation and ascended to Grandmaster status, his reputation in Jianghu could not be matched by many Heavenly Patrol Golden Envoys, let alone Green Envoys.
Of course, an official in the presence of the pri minister holds the rank of the seventh grade, and if it were an ordinary Green Envoy visiting, he probably wouldn’t even acknowledge him.
Officials in the Capital always feel a notch above those below, otherwise, Tao Qingyuan wouldn’t have gone to great lengths to protect Zhang Xuan, all for an opening.
“I’ve seen the Green Envoy Chen.”
“This envoy is here on the orders of several Divine Envoys for an audience. It would be best if this Green Envoy hurries with the announcent,” Chen Yuan nodded and said softly.
Hearing the words ‘Divine Envoy,’ the Heavenly Patrol Green Envoy didn’t dare delay and imdiately instructed a Heavenly Patrol Guard to go in and announce. In a short while, the Heavenly Patrol Guard rushed out, bending over and saying:
“Green Envoy Chen, the four Divine Envoys are waiting in the hall.”
“What?”
Hearing this, the pupils of the Green Envoy shrunk instantly. Suppressing the shock in his heart, he quickly said:
“Green Envoy Chen, I’ll take you inside.”
“Thank you.”
Divine Envoys waiting especially for him was an exceptional honor. Even the State Golden Envoys did not receive such a privilege. The Green Envoy didn’t dare to pause at all.
He quickly led Chen Yuan through the Heavenly Patrol Bureau.
As Chen Yuan thought, the headquarters was vast, with rows of magnificent palace buildings in sight, and many Martial Artists walking in between.
The majority were Reach Profound Level Green Envoys, and he only felt the presence of two Grandmasters at the Core Realm level.
“Green Envoy Chen, we have arrived.”
The Reach Profound Martial Artist pointed at the large hall in front.
Like other Heavenly Patrol offices, the main hall of the headquarters was also called the Heavenly Patrol Hall, just on a grander scale, with a plaque above exuding a powerful authority.
After another round of announcents, Chen Yuan was finally allowed to enter the hall.
Inside sat four figures dressed as Divine Envoys, two on each side, with the highest seat in the main position vacant. He had seen three of them before and had not t one before, but he knew who this person was in his heart.
Heavenly Divine Envoy, Xiao Jing!
He was regarded as the strongest among the four Divine Envoys of the Heavenly Patrol Bureau by the Jianghu gossip. So said that he would most likely be the next Great Governor of the Heavenly Patrol Bureau.
