Jing Yan’s reputation in the Luo Jiu Divine Palace is not small, but after all, he has just been promoted to the Third Palace. Although his potential is infinite, that is just potential. In the path of cultivation, there are still barriers for Jing Yan to cross.
If an accident occurs, an untily fall is also quite possible.
Therefore, for Chu Guanju, the Chief Officer of the Truth Departnt, to personally extend an invitation is a significant gesture. And upon eting, Chu Guanju imdiately expressed his apologies to Jing Yan. As for the sincerity of Chu Guanju’s apology, it may not be much, but at least the gesture was made.
Regarding the sincerity of the apology, it’s likely not extensive. If he truly wanted to apologize, why wait until Jing Yan was promoted to the Third Palace and faced the choice of joining various departnts?
When Jing Yan was in the Second Palace, was it because Chu Guanju couldn’t find where the Second Palace Qingmu Departnt Manor was?
In fact, from the mont Chu Guanju revealed his identity, Jing Yan already knew the purpose of his visit. Now, as expected, Chu Guanju expressed his hope for Jing Yan to join the Truth Departnt of the Third Palace.
"Jing Yan, although my Truth Departnt is not as good as the Water Moon Departnt, to tell the truth, it is much stronger than the Qingmu Departnt. By joining the Truth Departnt, you will undoubtedly gain more benefits. You are now a Six-star Void God, and there’s still a long way to go, facing many obstacles. You may not know this, but our General Director of the Truth Departnt is particularly attentive to you." Seeing Jing Yan hesitate, Chu Guanju frowned slightly and continued.
Chu Guanju himself does not actually like Jing Yan. It was because of Jing Yan that he was scolded publicly by Chief Ye Qin.
He ca down from the General Departnt of the Truth Departnt in the Eighth Palace to the Third Palace to et Jing Yan, which was a self-demotion. To draw Jing Yan in, he even represented the Truth Departnt to apologize to Jing Yan.
While Jing Yan’s talent is undoubtedly high, if not for the Chief Director, Chu Guanju would definitely not do this.
When he spoke to Jing Yan, he tried to be as patient as possible. However, how could Jing Yan not notice the emotions Chu Guanju was trying to hide?
In Jing Yan’s heart, there was not much conflict.
He imdiately responded, saying, "Thank you, Deacon Chu Guanju, for your kindness, but I joined the Truth Departnt in the First Palace and continued in the Second Palace. By the ti I reached the Third Palace, I had no intention of changing my mind."
Jing Yan’s tone was very polite, and his expression was respectful. After all, the person in front of him was a strong person at the True God level.
Upon hearing Jing Yan’s words, Chu Guanju’s eyes turned slightly cold.
"Jing Yan, have you thought this through?" Chu Guanju didn’t want to waste more words.
Does he, the Chief Officer, need to kneel and beg Jing Yan to join the Truth Departnt?
"Yes, I have thought it through. Thank you again, Deacon Chu Guanju, for your generous offer." Jing Yan nodded, his tone firm.
"Fine!" Chu Guanju said just one word this ti, then turned and flew away.
After Chu Guanju left, Chunjin, the Director of the Third Palace Qingmu Departnt, imdiately ca to Jing Yan.
Other directors were less enthusiastic.
They all heard the conversation between Jing Yan and Chu Guanju earlier. Jing Yan clearly stated that he was joining the Qingmu Departnt in the Third Palace as well, so what else could they say? If Chu Guanju’s invitation was rejected, could these directors of the Third Palace have more influence than Chu Guanju?
"Brother Jing Yan, I am Chunjin, Director of the Third Palace Qingmu Departnt. I heard your words just a mont ago. Shall we go take a look at the Qingmu Departnt Manor in the Third Palace now?" Chunjin said with a calm expression.
But the excitent hidden in his tone was hard to contain.
"I would appreciate Director Chunjin’s guidance." Jing Yan cupped his hands.
The two soon arrived at the Qingmu Departnt Manor of the Third Palace.
Inside the Council Hall.
"Brother Jing Yan, your renown precedes you!" Chunjin said with a smile.
"Director Chunjin, you flatter ." Jing Yan gently shook his head.
"Brother Jing Yan, there’s no need to be humble. Your strength is evident to us all. Honestly, you choosing the Qingmu Departnt is indeed an honor for us."
"I won’t beat around the bush. Now, let’s talk about the rewards the Third Palace Qingmu Departnt will provide to Brother Jing Yan. A million primary divine crystals. Additionally, every year, Brother Jing Yan can spend a month training in the Divine Spring Hall," said Chunjin.
Jing Yan is currently at the level of a Six-star Void God. After joining the Qingmu Departnt in the First and Second Palaces, he imdiately registered to take the test to advance to the next palace.
However, advancing from the Third to the Fourth Palace requires eting the basic requirent of being a Seven-star Void God.
Jing Yan is currently only a Six-star Void God, and reaching a Seven-star Void God in a short period is unlikely. Therefore, Chunjin naturally assus that Jing Yan will stay in the Third Palace Qingmu Departnt for a relatively long ti.
Allowing Jing Yan to train in the Divine Spring Hall for a month each year is indeed generous. In the Third Palace Qingmu Departnt, there are only two Divine Spring Halls.
The suggestion by Director Chunjin received no objections from the deacons. They may have discussed in advance what rewards and privileges Jing Yan would receive should he choose the Third Palace Qingmu Departnt.
Jing Yan pondered briefly.
Seeing Chunjin and others looking at him, Jing Yan smiled and said, "Director Chunjin, regarding the use of the Divine Spring Hall, could I propose a slight alteration?"
Chunjin and others’ eyes flickered slightly.
The use of the Divine Spring Hall for a month each year is already a significant privilege. Even if Jing Yan joined the strongest Water Moon Departnt, the privileges for using the Divine Spring Hall wouldn’t be much better than what Qingmu Departnt offers.
With such terms from the Qingmu Departnt, is Jing Yan still not satisfied?
Within the Council Hall, so people already felt a bit displeased with Jing Yan. While Jing Yan’s strength is true, and his talent is high, it is unfeasible to allocate the entire Divine Spring Hall solely for his use, right? The Third Palace Qingmu Departnt has hundreds of mbers, and there are only two Divine Spring Halls in total. What more does Jing Yan want?
Before Chunjin could speak, Jing Yan continued, "Director Chunjin, my request is, could I use the Divine Spring Hall for a year all at once? I’ll only use it for one year, and after that, no matter how long I stay in the Third Palace Qingmu Departnt, I won’t use the Divine Spring Hall of the Third Palace again."
"Hmm?"
"This... Brother Jing Yan, are you sure you want to do this? You are a Six-star Void God, and you might stay in the Third Palace for quite so ti, possibly decades to even a hundred years," Chunjin said, sowhat startled.
"I’m aware, and I’ve considered it," Jing Yan stated directly.
"If Brother Jing Yan insists, the Qingmu Departnt can accommodate that," Chunjin said after briefly contemplating before nodding in agreent.
For martial artists in the Third Palace, a year is not long. The weakest martial artists here are at least Five-star Void Gods, and during cultivation, a year can easily pass in a single ditation session.
"Thank you, Director Chunjin and all the deacons," Jing Yan promptly expressed gratitude.
The reason Jing Yan made such a request, of course, stems from his own considerations. Using the Divine Spring Hall for an entire year consecutively would greatly increase his chances of advancing to a Seven-star Void God.
