29: A generous reward—they're eyeing him!

Inside the main hall of the Purgatory Division.

Ye Qingyu was leisurely sipping tea in the hall.

Not far away, Wang Hu, Li Dahai, and several old Judicial Officers from the Purgatory Division were huddled together, whispering.

"Head Wang, why would Lord Ye from the Demon and Monster Division specifically come to find Tianxing? Could he have offended someone from the Demon and Monster Division?"

"By rights, it shouldn't be. He used to follow Shen Nian and only recently transferred to the Purgatory Division. He shouldn't have had any contact with people from the Demon and Monster Division before, and I haven't heard that Shen Nian knew Lord Ye!"

"So what's she here for today?"

"Alas, I can't figure it out. I just hope it's not bad news. Tianxing isn't the type to cause trouble..."

A few old Judicial Officers had some worry in their eyes.

Although the Purgatory Division was on par with the Demon and Monster Division in terms of rank, the people of the Demon and Monster Division acted domineeringly, and there wasn't a single yamen in the imperial city that wasn't afraid of them.

Shen Tianxing had good relationships with everyone, so they were all quite worried.

"Tianxing is a smart kid, he shouldn't have made enemies with the Demon and Monster Division. Maybe it's good news?"

Although Wang Hu spoke casually, he was actually worried in his heart.

Ye Qingyu came directly for Shen Tianxing without stating the reason, which naturally made people overthink.

While the few of them were making wild guesses, on the other side, two young people from the Demon and Monster Division were also discussing Shen Tianxing.

"Centurion Ye, do you think he will agree to our invitation for Shen Tianxing to join the Demon and Monster Division?"

Shen Tianxing's capture of a Vajra Realm ghost Cultivator last night had already spread throughout the entire Demon and Monster Division.

Even more shocking was that the Demon Suppressing Envoy intended to bring Shen Tianxing into the Demon and Monster Division.

This truly shocked many people!

"Joining the Demon and Monster Division is a step up to the heavens. How many people want to join but can't? He has no reason to refuse."

Another young man shook his head, looking arrogant.

The Demon and Monster Division held an extraordinary position; how many Cultivators fought tooth and nail but couldn't get in.

This was a symbol of status!

He didn't believe anyone would refuse!

Upon hearing this, Ye Qingyu's hand, holding the teacup, paused slightly.

Would he refuse?

Her eyes flickered, but she said nothing.

Although she had only met Shen Tianxing once, for some reason, she vaguely felt that Shen Tianxing was different from others.

If he truly refused, it wouldn't be impossible.

Thump, thump, thump... As the three of them whispered, a series of footsteps attracted everyone's attention.

Shen Tianxing arrived!

Ye Qingyu put down her teacup, stood up tall, and her beautiful eyes looked towards Shen Tianxing.

Dressed in a black and red Judicial Officer uniform, with a long saber at his waist, his movements carried a hint of Dragon-like strides. His slender figure stood out exceptionally in this gloomy place, surrounded by Yin Sha Death Qi!

Just like a blazing sun, he dispelled all the surrounding darkness!

"So it's you!"

"I didn't expect us to meet again so soon."

Seeing Ye Qingyu, Shen Tianxing smiled, showing his teeth, and raised his hand in greeting.

It was as if he had met an old friend, without any sense of unfamiliarity.

Those who didn't know would think the two were good friends who had known each other for many years.

He truly was different.

Ye Qingyu's lips moved, like melting frost, and she nodded naturally, saying, "Yes, I didn't expect it either."

The two greeted each other, which greatly surprised Wang Hu and the others nearby.

It seemed they really knew each other.

But they still didn't know why Ye Qingyu had come to find Shen Tianxing.

"Shen Tianxing, last night you rendered great service to our Demon and Monster Division. I have already reported it to the Demon Suppressing Envoy."

"The Demon Suppressing Envoy has decreed that those who perform meritorious deeds shall be rewarded!"

Ye Qingyu didn't hide anything.

She came today specifically for Shen Tianxing, so there was no need to conceal it.

Not only would he be rewarded!

But he would be heavily rewarded!

For a young master like Shen Tianxing, to win his heart, nothing was more suitable than a generous reward!

"Yes!"

Behind her, the two young people from the Demon and Monster Division stepped forward and placed a box on the ground.

"Prison Official Shen Tianxing, for capturing a Vajra Realm ghost Cultivator last night, is specially rewarded with one Vajra Realm Breakthrough Pill! One copy of the fourth-grade superior martial art, 'Azure Dragon Saber Art'! And ten thousand taels of gold!"

As the Demon and Monster Division's rewards were announced, everyone in the Judicial Hall, including Wang Hu and the other two, was dumbfounded!

These rewards were too generous!

When did the Demon and Monster Division become so generous with others?

"Captured a Vajra Realm ghost Cultivator! This... this... no way!?"

Behind Wang Hu, an experienced Judicial Officer exclaimed in a daze.

Everyone else also came back to their senses.

Shen Tianxing could actually capture a Vajra Realm ghost Cultivator?

Wasn't he in the Mortal Transformation Realm?

How did he do it!!!

That was a Vajra Realm ghost Cultivator!

Capturing one was even harder than killing one!

"Tianxing... you, you, you've entered the Vajra Realm?"

Wang Hu's teeth were chattering slightly.

"Yes, actually, I was not far from the Vajra Realm for a while. Recently, I had some insights and just broke through not long ago."

Shen Tianxing smiled and nodded casually, admitting it openly.

In fact, after Ye Qingyu arrived, he knew that his cultivation couldn't be hidden.

Of course, he didn't want to hide it anymore now.

Lurking might allow him to pretend to be a pig to eat the tiger, but lurking was too troublesome. He wanted to gain more experience points and more rewards, and that could only be achieved by executing more formidable criminals.

Only with sufficient strength and high enough status could he do it.

"Good kid, with such cultivation, yet still so low-key. You'll go far!"

Wang Hu laughed and punched him. In this day and age, which young person with a bit of cultivation didn't look down on others?

Shen Tianxing never put on airs when interacting with people. He was low-key but enthusiastic in his dealings, getting along well with everyone.

Although he had only recently arrived at the Purgatory Division, he was deeply liked by everyone.

Such a person would surely achieve great things in the future.

No wonder even a Centurion like Ye Qingyu personally came to deliver his rewards.

Shen Tianxing cupped his hands, begging for mercy from Wang Hu and the others.

After dealing with Wang Hu and the others, he looked at Ye Qingyu and said, "Thank you for your trouble, for making you come all this way personally."

These rewards also exceeded Shen Tianxing's expectations.

However, he unceremoniously accepted them all!

A Breakthrough Pill was a rare treasure!

A fourth-grade saber art, if placed outside, would be enough to cause a bloody storm; it was a genuine treasure!

He would accept anything that was offered, no matter what intentions lay behind it!!!

Ye Qingyu's lips moved slightly, looking at Shen Tianxing with a faint smile, and said, "With your Vajra Realm cultivation, serving as merely a Judicial Officer in this Purgatory Division is a waste of your talent."

"With your strength, if given an opportunity, it wouldn't be difficult for you to rise to prominence."

Here it comes!

Shen Tianxing had already anticipated that Ye Qingyu's personal visit was not simple!

Sure enough, she was coveting him!

He wasn't a three-year-old child; how could he not understand the meaning behind her words?

This was clearly an attempt to recruit him!

It just wasn't stated so explicitly in front of so many Prison Officials!

However, Wang Hu and the others weren't fools; they were all old foxes, seasoned Jianghu veterans, so how could they not understand?

This was a blatant attempt to poach someone!!!

Wang Hu and the others frowned, a hint of urgency on their faces.

Knowing that Shen Tianxing had entered the Vajra Realm, Wang Hu and the others naturally didn't want Shen Tianxing to leave.

A Vajra Realm Judicial Officer was also a treasure to them!

Wang Hu wished he could run to Qin Zhanfeng to complain right now.

"Centurion Ye, I appreciate your kindness."

"Being a Judicial Officer of the Purgatory Division is actually my adoptive father's dying wish; it is my duty to inherit his legacy."

You want me to leave the Purgatory Division?

I can only tell you one thing: you're dreaming!

No one can make me!

Isn't it good to stay here, harvest experience points, and get rewards?

And the Yin Sha Death Qi that fills the entire Prison Division... these are all nutrients for his rapid increase in cultivation!

No one can make me leave the Purgatory Division!

This is my home!
