Chapter 634 Jin Lingfeng
"Well done, Jin Lingfeng. From today onwards, I will be keeping an eye on you."
The Demon King of the Withered Moon uttered a vicious threat, turned and flew away, with the demons immediately following.
Just as dawn broke, the sky cleared up.
Someone reacted quickly and immediately shouted, "The captain is brave and has driven back the demons!"
Immediately, countless praises rang out.
Jin Lingfeng glanced at everyone speechlessly and said, "Shut up, all of you. You scared me to death. If anything happens to me, we're all doomed."
"My lord! You mustn't say that!"
Instructor Li's face turned pale, and he quickly reminded him.
After all, he comes from a prominent family. If he behaves improperly, he, as the nominal instructor but in reality his follower, will be punished.
Jin Lingfeng waved his hand dismissively: "Forget it, forget it, what a mess this is, it's just an undeserved disaster. Whoever can get rid of this guy, I'll volunteer to give him a minor official position, it's settled then."
"what!"
Everyone was stunned, while Jin Lingfeng had already stormed back.
The atmosphere fell silent, and many people stared intently.
Within Windbreak Valley, there is actually only one true official, Captain Jin; the rest are all clerks.
Even Instructor Li was just a private soldier brought by Jin Lingfeng, and he did not hold any official position.
And now, Jin Lingfeng actually says he can petition for someone to be granted an official position!
This is a chance to reach the sky in one step!
Leizhou is different from other continents. Here, the Wu Dynasty system is deeply rooted in people's hearts. Getting promoted and becoming a nobleman means wealth and honor, which is everyone's dream.
Judging from Jin Lingfeng's family background, he seems to have connections everywhere. If he can seize this opportunity...
Of course, the prerequisites are also extremely stringent.
The person who could drive away the Withered Moon Demon King must be a Star Luo Realm expert.
Then there's no need to stay cooped up in the tiny Windbreak Valley anymore.
Amidst everyone's sighs, Li Ben hurriedly ran over and caught up with Jin Lingfeng, who had already entered the room.
"Young Master! You mustn't! How could you make such a promise!"
Jin Lingfeng rolled his eyes at him: "Why not? Just arrange a low-ranking official position. My father can handle it with a single word."
"That's not the reason! It's because... these people are wild and unruly, and their backgrounds are unclear. If something happens to them, it could easily implicate the young master..."
"Then who has a clean past? You?"
Li Ben's eyes lit up: "That's right! As long as Young Master agrees, I can actually do the job of driving away Ku Yue."
Jin Lingfeng laughed and patted Li Ben on the shoulder: "Old Li, what's wrong? Can't I enjoy the good life because I'm with the young master?"
"Young Master, you misunderstand! I wasn't talking about myself. What I meant was that I have a senior brother in the secular world who is very powerful. If he comes, he will definitely be able to kill Ku Yue. At that time, I don't know if Young Master's promise will still be valid."
Li Ben certainly didn't want to become an official himself; no official position could compare to the comfort of following this person.
But this did not prevent him from mentoring others and cultivating his own small power base.
Jin Lingfeng knew exactly what he wanted to do. He said in a low voice, "Do as you please, but I'm warning you, that person can't be associated with the Jin family, no, he can't be associated with any officials, and it's best if he doesn't know anyone."
"Don't worry, young master, he's definitely a free spirit from the martial arts world and has no connection whatsoever with officialdom."
Li Ben chuckled; he understood the young master.
Jin Lingfeng didn't want to use his family connections for such a trivial matter; that would be too embarrassing.
It just so happens that my senior brother is a free man who has always wanted to get a government position. As long as I write a letter, everything will be fine.
……
Meanwhile, another day of work had begun in the valley.
Those who need to rest should rest, and those who need to work should work.
But the duty teams were in an awkward position.
The Demon King of the Withered Moon is guarding outside; who would dare to go out at this time?
If the other side treats us like a piece of cake, there's no one to complain to.
Seeing this, Shi Motong and the other commander both had gloomy faces.
A moment later, Li Ben came out and saw that no one on duty had moved. He angrily said, "A bunch of useless trash. You're scared like this by a mere monster."
Shi Motong said, "Instructor Li, we just don't want to throw our lives away in vain."
"Humph."
Li Ben looked disgusted. These duty teams were all mercenaries from outside the military, not even considered officers, so he couldn't directly insult them.
However, when my senior brother comes to kill demons, he always needs a few errand runners. These two commanders are too scheming and definitely cannot be relied upon.
Then we might as well choose another honest one, someone who can do things for our senior brother.
His eyes lit up and he smiled, “I understand, after all, it’s a matter of life and death. But with Hu Long dead, it’s not good to leave one of the three commander positions vacant. So why don’t we take this opportunity to choose another commander?”
Dozens of duty teams, look over here.
They looked at each other, their eyes filled with a mixture of curiosity and excitement.
Although it's unclear when he started looking at the officer on duty like that, it's still a minor leadership position, and who wouldn't want to sit in it?
Especially the scarred man next to Shi Motong.
He was also a powerful figure in the Three Palaces, but he had only recently entered the Three Palaces, and his combat strength was still far inferior to that of Shi Motong and Hu Long.
But when it comes to dealing with others, while I wouldn't say I have complete control, I'm certainly confident.
Who can take this leadership position from him?
The thought of soon being on equal footing with Shi Motong made him grin, and he stepped forward, saying, "Instructor Li is absolutely right, I completely agree!"
"Cai Liu, you're being a bit too hasty. Commander Shi hasn't even said anything, and you can't wait to break away from her?"
Another commander sneered.
Scarface, whose real name was Cai Liu, chuckled and said, "Commander Zhang is joking. I was just agreeing with Instructor Li's suggestion; I didn't mean anything else."
"is it?"
Commander Zhang looked at Shi Motong, who said indifferently, "Since it's a selection process, there should be some explanation."
"Naturally, let's settle things with fists. Those who want to be leaders, step forward and fight it out. Whoever stands at the end will be the leader."
Li Ben waved his hand dismissively.
He just wanted to find someone to be a cannon fodder for labor, it didn't matter who it was, and fairness and rules were irrelevant.
He still thought highly of Cai Liu. This guy was ruthless and ambitious, and would definitely be a good, obedient dog.
The two commanders exchanged a glance and had no objections.
Cai Liu sneered and was the first to step forward, walking into the square.
His aura, exuding the power of a third-level cultivator, caused many eager officers to stop in their tracks.
However, soon, two more warriors who had just entered the Three Palaces stepped forward. They were both soldiers under Commander Li, and they were just missing this opportunity.
Cai Liu's face darkened; he was extremely displeased.
Soon, another seven or eight soldiers from the second palace stepped forward.
They weren't strong enough, but it was a chaotic battle after all, so maybe they could try their luck and snatch something up.
The three martial artists from the Third Palace sneered. A bunch of ignorant fools. They would soon show them just how big the gap in their cultivation levels really was.
The next second, a calm voice rang out.
"Why don't I give it a try?"
