7: Receive SSS-level armor and SSS-level skills!
As Yan He's words fell.
An invisible pressure seemed to subtly dissipate in the night.
But then he added another sentence.
Which made everyone present perk up!
"The warriors from the Judgment Headquarters have also departed from the Council Headquarters in the capital and are on their way. They should arrive very soon."
Yan He's gaze fell on Xu Yi again.
His eyes filled with trust and expectation, he said.
"The council's appointment has been announced. I have matters to attend to, so I'll be leaving first. Mobei Province is now entrusted to Councilor Xu."
"I believe that with your ability, you will surely be able to take over from Councilor Gu and protect this place..."
Although his tone was calm, it was very forceful.
It was as if he was entrusting a heavy responsibility to a veteran who had seen many battles, while also expressing a hint of regret for the demise of the former Mobei Province Defense Envoy.
Upon hearing this, Xu Yi.
His voice full of confidence, he said.
"General Yan, with me here in Mobei Province, you can rest assured."
Yan He nodded in satisfaction and said no more.
He turned and strode towards the SSS-level warplane behind him.
It wasn't that he was unwilling to stay here longer.
And interact more with Xu Yi, a junior he thought highly of.
But rather, Heishui Province required his presence to prevent any sudden changes.
He couldn't leave for too long.
If the warrior who had broken through to the Martial Emperor realm hadn't been Xu Yi.
As the General of Zhenbei, a position above ordinary councilors.
He wouldn't have specifically squeezed out time to come in person......
As Yan He's figure flashed and entered the warplane.
A moment later.
"Farewell, General Yan!"
Under the salute of Xu Yi leading the crowd.
"Boom.....!"
The roar of the warplane sounded.
The SSS-level warplane carrying Yan He, like a giant black eagle, cut through the night sky.
Speeding towards the distant Heishui Province!
Leaving a brilliant trail.
Xu Yi watched the warplane depart until it completely disappeared from sight.
Only then did he slowly withdraw his gaze.
He looked down at the councilor's exclusive ring in his hand, and an inexplicable emotion welled up in his heart.
He then gently put it on his hand.
It shimmered under the moonlight.
And the surrounding high-ranking Generals, who had come to serve as background, had not interjected a single word throughout.
And who also greatly admired Yan He.
Today, thanks to Xu Yi, they had the good fortune to witness him in person, and their hearts were equally excited.
They also recovered from the shock they had just experienced.
They lowered their saluting hands and looked at Xu Yi, their eyes filled with awe.
They all stepped forward, cupped their fists, and shouted in unison.
"Subordinates pay respects to Defense Envoy, congratulations on your promotion!"
Voices full of respect echoed uniformly around them.
Now Xu Yi had been officially appointed as the Mobei Province Defense Envoy by the council.
He was the direct superior of everyone in their Central Defense Line!
After the unfortunate demise of the former Mobei Province Defense Envoy Gu Jiufeng, Mobei Province finally had a Defense Envoy again after many years!
The Generals began to ponder in their hearts.
How to perform well in front of Xu Yi, the new Defense Envoy.
Now, General Yang Xiong, the General of the Central Defense Line, and Vice General Wu Ze, the Deputy General.
Were all executed for colluding with fierce beasts!
The rest of their trusted subordinates who held important positions during peacetime had also been captured by Xu Yi.
From the conversation between Xu Yi and Yan He just now, they learned that these traitors were about to be escorted to the Judgment Headquarters.
Their end would definitely be miserable!
Death itself was a luxury in that place......
And this also led to several positions in the Eastern Defense Line becoming vacant.
So, wasn't this their chance!
Although they knew with certainty that Xu Yi would not give them the two most crucial positions of General and Deputy General.
He would definitely arrange for his trusted subordinates from the Eastern Defense Line to fill them.
But for the other important positions.
They could still strive for them based on their military achievements and seniority......
Xu Yi's smile held a hint of majesty as he said.
"No need for formalities."
He had already guessed that these Generals would surely want to seize this opportunity to gain more opportunities and status.
And he didn't mind this; on the contrary, he felt it was human nature.
He himself had also wanted to progress in this way back then.
He then instructed the crowd.
"Later, when the personnel from the Judgment Headquarters arrive, you will hand over those traitors directly to them."
"This Emperor has important matters to attend to next, do not disturb me......."
Xu Yi's words fell, and before anyone could respond.
His figure had already transformed into a bolt of lightning, instantly disappearing from his original spot.
Leaving only a few lingering electric arcs in the night sky.
Shining with dazzling light.
"As expected of Defense Envoy, what incredible speed!"
Causing everyone to exclaim repeatedly where they stood.
The Martial Emperor realm was truly too distant for them.......
And Xu Yi's figure quickly appeared in the top-tier cultivation room in the defense line that General Yang Xiong had previously used.
Equipped with various advanced cultivation facilities!
Xu Yi entered and walked directly to the center.
He sat cross-legged.
But he did not enter a state of cultivation; instead, a joyful smile appeared on his lips.
He closed his eyes.
As if making a wish, he said to the system in his mind.
"System, I choose two!"
["Congratulations to the host for obtaining the SSS-level battle armor "Raging Thunder God Armor" and the SSS-level cultivation technique "Thunder God Scripture."]
As the system's voice fell.
A dark black SSS-level battle armor suddenly appeared before Xu Yi.
Its material was sturdy, and its craftsmanship was exquisite!
One could tell at a glance that it was a priceless treasure!
At the same time.
A profound SSS-level cultivation technique memory.
Also flowed into Xu Yi's mind in a very gentle manner.
As if it were innate knowledge.
In the blink of an eye, it was deeply imprinted in his heart!
Xu Yi slowly opened his eyes, which sparkled with surprise and shock.
He quickly digested the cultivation technique memory he had just acquired.
He gained a full understanding of this powerful SSS-level cultivation technique, the "Thunder God Scripture"!
This cultivation technique actually perfectly integrated the three S-level cultivation techniques he previously possessed, which respectively enhanced strength, speed, and defense!
And its effects far surpassed them!
As long as he cultivated this technique, he would be able to simultaneously improve his control over his lightning ability, as well as his strength, speed, defense, and other abilities.
Truly achieving a triple benefit.
Greatly saving his cultivation time!
And the SSS-level Raging Thunder God Armor before him made Xu Yi fondle it with admiration.
Its defensive power was truly unparalleled!
According to the system's introduction.
If it was damaged but not completely destroyed in an instant.
It could self-repair.
Or accelerate the repair process by injecting lightning energy!
Xu Yi reached out and gently stroked the Raging Thunder God Armor.
Feeling the cool metallic sensation emanating from it, the joy in his eyes grew even stronger.
"System products are indeed exquisite!"
Xu Yi, in an excellent mood, couldn't help but murmur in his heart.
Subsequently.
Xu Yi's mind stirred.
The SSS-level Raging Thunder God Armor in his hand transformed into an exquisite wristwatch in the blink of an eye.
He easily put it on his wrist.
Once danger was encountered.
With just a thought, Xu Yi could immediately arm himself with the Raging Thunder God Armor.
Wrapping himself up tightly!
It was both convenient and extremely fast.
