35: She's been promoted!! Now she's in charge of the Ministry of Justice! Ye Qingyu is here again!

He Cultivated all night, until the bright sun rose and shone into the room through the window screen.

Shen Tianxing opened his eyes.

The golden light filling the room was absorbed into his body, and his eyes shimmered with golden light, faintly revealing mysterious runes.

“Vajra Fifth Realm!!!”

“With my current strength, even if I face the Great Compassion Monk alone, I might not be at a disadvantage!”

Shen Tianxing was very satisfied.

Yesterday’s gains were too great.

Not only did he obtain Cultivation Techniques, but also a large amount of experience points.

His Cultivation had advanced to the Vajra Fifth Realm!

The Indestructible Great Buddha Body had also reached the fifth level!

However, the greatest improvement belonged to the Impermanence Saber Technique!

Now, it had entered the Realm of returning to simplicity!

The advancement of these Cultivation Techniques and martial arts caused Shen Tianxing’s strength to surge!

Below the Vajra Eighth Realm, he was confident that no one could block his edge!

After finishing his Cultivation and tidying himself up, Shen Tianxing changed into a long green robe and leisurely walked out.

Today was his day off; he wasn’t on duty.

However, Shen Tianxing did not intend to waste time like this.

Cultivation could not stop even for a day!

At present, the most suitable place for him to Cultivate was naturally the Mass Grave eight hundred li outside the Imperial City.

It wasn’t his first time going to the Mass Grave; every time he went, he could significantly improve his Cultivation.

It was his favorite place to go... Time flowed like water, and days passed one by one.

Shen Tianxing’s life in the Purgatory Division was much more fulfilling than when he was in the Ministry of Justice; he Cultivated in the Purgatory Division when on duty, and went to the Mass Grave outside the city during his rest days.

His gains were naturally not small.

Although after entering the Vajra Realm, he could no longer cross several Realms consecutively like in the Mortal Transformation Realm, it was still very comforting to see the experience points behind the Cultivation column increase significantly after each day’s Cultivation.

Moreover, his reputation had completely spread during these days.

First, Ye Qingyu, a Disciple of the Chief of the Demon and Monster Department, personally came to recruit him, which led to Lord Qin Zhanfeng and Lord Gui Bufan fighting fiercely.

After that.

He beheaded seven Cultivators of demons, monsters, and ghost Dao with one saber strike.

Now, he was already beginning to show his talent!

The veteran Executioners in the Purgatory Division were shocked, and even the Prison Envoy Qin Zhanfeng was alarmed once again.

After the Demon and Monster Division openly tried to poach him not long ago, people from the Martial Suppression Division also secretly and overtly tried to entice Shen Tianxing.

Qin Zhanfeng knew that if he didn’t take action soon, whether Shen Tianxing could stay was truly up in the air...

Early morning!

Stepping on the scattered golden sunlight, Shen Tianxing arrived at the Purgatory Division early, as always.

“Tianxing, you’re finally here! Come quickly, there’s good news!”

Wang Hu spotted Shen Tianxing at a glance and greeted him with a hearty laugh.

“Hahahaha... Come on in, you’ll have to treat us today!”

“That’s right, it’s been a while since we went to Osmanthus Tower, we must feast today!”

Everyone teased him.

From their words, it was clear that they were genuinely happy for him.

Apparently, there really was good news.

Shen Tianxing was a bit confused!

However, good news was always better than no news.

Just one meal at Osmanthus Tower was nothing!

“Since you all are waiting for me so early, it seems there really is good news. Osmanthus Tower it is, no problem!”

Having long understood everyone’s temperaments, Shen Tianxing responded with a smile and walked up to Wang Hu.

“Tianxing, congratulations, you’ve been promoted! This is the appointment letter from Lord Prison Envoy, take it!”

Wang Hu held a black official document and a black token in his hand!

This kind of official document was unique to the Purgatory Division, used only for reporting important matters or for significant appointments.

It represented the authority of the Prison Envoy!

Other divisions also had similar official documents.

Shen Tianxing’s expression became serious, and he took the official document with both hands, slowly opening it.

A unique aura, belonging to a Xiaoyao Realm Master, emanated from the official document.

The content was simple: Shen Tianxing had repeatedly captured ghost Dao masters, his punishments were effective, and his strength was evident, thus he was exceptionally promoted to Chief Punisher!

Chief Punisher!!!

He had directly jumped from a mere Execution Officer, skipping the steward position, and instantly reached a height that many in the Purgatory Division could hardly achieve in a lifetime!

“Chief Punisher, your rank will now be above ours, so we’ll have to ask Lord Si Kou to take good care of us, hahahaha...”

Wang Hu said with a laugh, without a hint of jealousy.

This was very rare in prisons.

Whether it was local prisons or places like the Purgatory Division, all positions were like one person for one job.

Almost everyone, once in a specific position, rarely had a chance to change.

Either they would surpass others in Cultivation Realm and achieve merits over time.

Or, someone would retire or die, and then there would be an opportunity to fill the vacancy.

Someone like Shen Tianxing, who came less than half a month ago and immediately became a Chief Punisher... that truly hadn't happened before!!!

Shen Tianxing looked at this appointment, feeling surprised and delighted.

This position, he truly deserved it!

Cultivation, merit, he had both!

Things like qualifications, in the face of Cultivation and merit, could not stand in the way!

It seemed Qin Zhanfeng still had some courage!

“Head Wang is joking. What kind of person am I, Shen Tianxing? Don’t you all know?”

“Tonight, at Osmanthus Tower, we won’t leave until we’re drunk!!!”

Things that could be settled with money were not problems at all!

“Good! Lord Si Kou is generous!”

“I told you Lord Si Kou wasn’t that kind of person, but you didn’t believe me!”

“That’s right, those who spoke wrongly, drink a few more cups tonight and celebrate properly!”

...Tap, tap, tap...

As everyone was laughing and talking, a series of hurried footsteps approached.

Wang Hu quickly hushed everyone, telling those on duty to go to their posts.

Only Shen Tianxing, Wang Hu, Li Dahai, Zhang Kui, and a few others remained in the hall.

After becoming the Chief Punisher, his rank was different, and Shen Tianxing no longer needed to handle ordinary matters.

Clang, clang, clang...

Amidst the footsteps, there was a grating sound of chains being dragged, which was very harsh.

Shen Tianxing and the others stood inside the hall, looking towards the entrance.

They saw a stunning woman, clad in a black cloak and tight-fitting attire, holding an ancient long sword, walk in.

Ye Qingyu from the Demon and Monster Division had arrived!!!

Behind Ye Qingyu, four masters from the Demon and Monster Division were escorting a figure shrouded in a black robe.

“Greetings, Centurion Ye!”

Wang Hu and the other two quickly bowed.

Shen Tianxing, on the other hand, having been promoted, now held the rank of Chief Punisher, which was on par with Ye Qingyu, so he did not need to bow.

The two merely nodded to each other as a greeting.

“Centurion Ye, for what purpose have you come?” Wang Hu stepped forward to ask.

In reality, everyone somewhat had a guess.

Seeing her escorting someone, it was clear that an important criminal was to be imprisoned in the Purgatory Division.

In the past, people from the Demon and Monster Division had come before, but it was rare for a prisoner to be personally escorted by someone of Ye Qingyu’s rank.

It was evident that this prisoner was no ordinary individual!

“This prisoner is to be held on the second floor, in solitary confinement, and no one is allowed to contact them!”
