Chapter 631: Chapter 181-general manager of the sky prison

Splitting the heavenly spirit essence energy fruit into three portions, Xiao Wu and the Vermillion Bird each had nine, two left in their hands.

The little turtle was very clever. He looked at the remaining two and immediately guessed that they were for him.

He stood up like a human and stood on the stone table with his two hind legs, bowing to Xiao ran.

“Interesting,” Xiao ran was amused by it.

He threw the two heaven spirit essence energy fruits over.

The little turtle immediately caught it and bowed to Xiao ran again.

Then he looked at Xiao Wu with eager eyes.

“Roar!” Xiao Wu growled at it in dissatisfaction.

However, he still threw a heaven spiritual essence energy fruit over.

Without waiting for it to open its mouth again, he opened his mouth and swallowed the remaining eight heaven spirit essence energy fruits in one go.

He finished digesting it.

He didn’t break through, but instead, he strengthened his Foundation.

The Vermilion Bird hesitated for a moment, then threw one of the heavenly spirit energy fruits to the little turtle and ate the remaining eight. His cultivation improved again and he broke through to Lv 3 martial King realm.

He took out ten drops of blood essence and handed them over.”This is a small token of my appreciation. You must accept it.”

“Alright! I won’t be polite with you. ” Xiao ran said.

After he put away the ten drops of blood essence, the Vermilion Bird turned into a red light and returned to his right wrist.

The little turtle didn’t hesitate any longer and ate the four heavenly spirit energy fruits in one bite.

Blue light bloomed and cold air rushed out. With it as the center, it spread to the surrounding. After refining the four heavenly spirit energy fruits, he broke through to the tenth level of the higher heaven realm.

He was only one step away from breaking through to the Grandmaster realm.

“It seems that this little turtle has a big secret.” Xiao ran smiled.

Every beast had its own secrets, and there was no need to get to the bottom of it.

With a point of his finger, he retracted the barrier that he had set up around him.

“Watch the house.”

After saying this, he stood up from the stone bench and walked outside.

He went to the Jing Wen Lane, which was very close to the divine sword guards.

It was already noon when they arrived at the divine sword guards.

“Brother Xiao!” The guards at the door greeted him warmly when they saw him.

After the battle yesterday, Xiao ran’s name had spread throughout the divine sword guards. Even vice sword head Fang was no match for him. In addition to his status, he was worthy of their respect.

This ‘brother Xiao’ was very heartfelt.

“Yes.” Xiao ran smiled and nodded.

He returned to the courtyard.

Only Shen Yiming and Daoist priest Xuan Yang were present. Little Zhou was not around.

“They’re here. ” Shen Yiming teased.

“Did you have a good sleep?”

“Yes.” Xiao ran responded, pulled out a chair, and sat down.

She took the tea and took a sip.

“Where’s little Zhou?”

“I’m cultivating in his room. I’ve made up my mind this time. ”

“You guys keep an eye on him. This guy’s talent for cultivation is very good. We can’t waste it like this.” Xiao ran said.

“Yes.” Shen Yiming nodded.

At this moment, a silver sword guard came in quickly from outside. He placed the food on the table and then left.

“You’re just in time. We’ve just ordered some food. ”

“It’s better to come at the right time than early. ” Xiao ran laughed.

He took the chopsticks from Shen Yiming, picked up a chicken leg, and started eating.

“I might have to move.” Shen Yiming’s expression was serious.

He took the wine pot and poured a cup for Xiao ran.

Looking at him, Xiao ran asked,”are you still in the divine sword guard or are you going to be transferred out?”

“Divine sword guards.”

“Take over the position of vice Sword Master Qin?”

“Yes.” Shen Yiming didn’t try to hide anything and told him the truth.

“The news has already spread. I reckon that Swordmaster Lei will come and have a chat with me soon.”

“What do you think?”

“I have the qualifications and merits, but my cultivation is a little lacking. Other than vice Sword Master Qin and vice Sword Master Fang, who have relatively low cultivation, the rest of the divine sword guards have very strong cultivation. There are also some elders who have even more terrifying strength. After everything that has happened these days, I’ve come to understand that status is secondary. As long as one is strong enough, even an ordinary person can settle everything. ” Shen Yiming said.

“I’m happy for you to think of this. ” Xiao ran said.

The topic changed.

“Baseless rumors might not be false. The news has already been spread. Do you think the higher-ups will retract their orders?”

Shen Yiming understood this principle. This was related to the appointment of the divine sword Guard’s vice Sword Master. It was a matter of great importance. The Imperial court and Emperor Sheng Wen’s permission had to be obtained before the appointment could be decided.

He didn’t know what had happened and what kind of game they were playing.

But even if one used their toes to think, they could guess that it must have been very intense.

The Deputy sword head of the divine sword guards held real power and had great authority. There were countless people who had their eyes on him, but now, he was the one in charge.

And he did not have a good relationship with Emperor Sheng Wen.

In other words, those who were very close to Xiao ran were all thorns in Emperor Sheng Wen’s flesh and eye.

It’s good that I don’t find trouble with you, but you still want to be promoted? He was probably daydreaming.

There must be someone protecting him, which was why he was able to fight his way out of the many candidates and finally take the position.

If he retreated now, he would be slapping the other party in the face.

He fell into silence, and even his chopsticks stopped moving.

Taoist master Xuan Yang filled their cups with wine and smiled.”Heavenly Lord Wu Liang, what’s the saying again? you should fight when you should. You’ve already stepped into the martial world. You’re not only representing yourself, but also the people around you.”

“The Taoist priest is right. If you back down this time, you will not only disappoint the people who are protecting you, but you will also give others the impression that you are easy to bully. You should think about what to do.” Xiao ran said.

“I understand.” Shen Yiming’s eyes sparkled.

He made a decision in his heart.

“I’m definitely going to sit in this position. ”
