455: Promotion and salary increase (plus more)

After Wu Feng took his leave.

The Caiyun City Lord watched the video several times, and after a long while, she let out a deep breath and put the video away.

Leaning one hand on the table, propping up her chin, her eyes slightly unfocused, she pondered what reward to give Bai Mo.

After all, Bai Mo had performed exceptionally well in this matter, even excessively so, and most importantly, Bai Mo had demonstrated his strength.

He was even more powerful than when he saved her before! He also revealed more of his abilities.

After all, at that time, Bai Mo had only helped the Caiyun City Lord block that attack, and the Caiyun City Lord knew that attack was 'one-time use'.

Moreover, Bai Mo had only shown 'Hollowfication' and 'Moon Fang Heaven-Piercer'.

But this time, Bai Mo revealed even more!

Whether it was the terrifying frost power of 'Ice Heaven Hundred Flowers Funeral', or the unknown power he used (Hollow Flash).

Furthermore, the speed and power he displayed, as well as the terrifying defensive power feedback when he was hit by the opponent's attack, even the Caiyun City Lord saw Bai Mo get injured, but what kind of terrifying recovery power was that!

"Let's settle it like this then!" After a long time, the Caiyun City Lord made a decision, then swiftly wrote down a decree.

Meanwhile, as the Caiyun City Lord had said, these forces targeting Caiyun City, upon discovering that the people they sent out had not returned, sent people to the 'ambush location' to investigate, and were thoroughly shocked.

At the same time, they also realized that Caiyun City was 'flexing its muscles' at them!

Of course, in contrast, Bai Mo also entered their field of vision.

After all, it was 'common knowledge' that Bai Mo and Wu Feng were responsible for investigating this matter.

After these faction leaders obtained the intelligence and the 'footage' from the scene, they all cursed in unison: "Crap! Why do all the geniuses flock to Caiyun City!"

This Bai Mo is one, many years ago, that astonishingly talented spellcaster who overshadowed everyone else was also one... including the Caiyun City Lord herself.

If it weren't for these people, Caiyun City would have been finished long ago.

But precisely because of these people, it survived the most difficult period and has now stabilized and taken root.

Once it has grown into a formidable force, it will be very difficult to 'annihilate' Caiyun City, and it would also require favorable timing, geographical advantage, and human harmony, which is too difficult!

Geniuses are not all the same.

One type of genius is only a genius relative to ordinary people.

But another type of genius is one where other geniuses are like ordinary people compared to them.

Caiyun City is like the 'Son of Destiny', with its own geniuses appearing at each 'stage'.

The spellcasting youth from the time before last.

Last time was the current Caiyun City Lord.

This time, it's this young man... no, young adult named Bai Mo.

These major forces certainly have many geniuses.

But such astonishingly talented individuals, who could be called the pinnacle of the genius pyramid, truly do not exist among them.

After all, for this kind of genius, one in an era is already quite a lot, at most two or three.

Damn it! They are truly filled with envy, jealousy, and hatred!

They are practically green with envy!!!

On Caiyun City's side, through the decree issued by the Caiyun City Lord.

Bai Mo was promoted, becoming a special consultant for the Enforcement Hall, on the same level and status as the Enforcement Hall Master, and with his identity as an Honorary Elder, he was already in an extremely high position.

Moreover, he had freedom, as the Enforcement Hall Master still handled the duties of the Enforcement Hall Master; he was merely a special consultant, and generally nothing would trouble him, except for major events like this one.

Now, purely in terms of status, Bai Mo is basically second only to the Caiyun City Lord, with very few truly above him.

Previously, those elders and hall masters, etc., actually had a higher or similar status to him.

But now it's different; with his dual identities, there are very few who are higher than him.

In Caiyun City, a Hall Master (Department Head) is on the same level as an Elder.

However, Elders are more like a 'council' and generally do not participate in 'daily operations', such as those of the Enforcement Hall, Logistics Department, and other departments.

So, purely from a power perspective, Elders might seem to have less authority.

However, Elders are inherently 'freer' and are also 'high-end combatants' and 'advisors on major affairs'.

In fact, it is also fine to consider Elders as a 'high-end combat unit'.

Caiyun City currently has eight Elders and four Grand Elders. The Grand Elders are the four Daofa Realm powerhouses, existing on the same level as the Caiyun City Lord.

However, they generally do not concern themselves with worldly affairs, unless a major event occurs that requires their recall.

Yes, recalled, they are not in Caiyun City.

If they were all in the city, ha~ Zhou Jie would not have had any chance at all back then; he would have been eliminated by the Grand Elders.

How could he have had the opportunity to 'assassinate' the Caiyun City Lord!

Moreover, if Caiyun City had known in advance, even without the Grand Elders, Zhou Jie would not have had the chance to assassinate the Caiyun City Lord.

Otherwise, the Caiyun City Lord would have been eliminated long ago; why would Zhou Jie need to act, would the other major forces just stand by as decorations?

This was not the first or second time this had happened before.

Of course, a large part of the reason for such a 'successful' assassination was also because the item in Zhou Jie's hand was 'cheating'.

However, he then encountered another 'cheating' person who was prepared.

Bai Mo also didn't expect that he would be 'promoted' again so soon.

And he also got a 'raise'!

He suddenly had tens of millions more source points.

This amount of source points is not small!

And it is clear that the source points he will obtain from here on will also be much more than before.

For Bai Mo, this was the best news.

After this display of strength, of course, it was certainly not just Bai Mo's action this time; Caiyun City must have made many other moves as well.

After a fierce display of strength, Caiyun City seemed to suddenly stabilize again.

From the outward appearance of an impending storm, after a period of stability, it turned into an undercurrent.

Such matters certainly cannot be resolved in one go, or rather, they can never truly stop.

Underground confrontations will definitely not be scarce.

However, these matters no longer had much to do with Bai Mo; if the Caiyun City Lord didn't look for him, he was happy to slack off.

When he had nothing to do, he would take on some 'Foreign Teacher' assignments to earn some source points, or cultivate, steadily increasing his strength and cultivation, and maintaining a stable income of source points.
