177: What other noodles?
At the dinner table, everyone chatted, and the atmosphere was very harmonious.
Even Li Yan secretly marveled in her heart, it was truly impressive to be able to handle so many women.
And in Li Yan's opinion, Cheng Yurou and the others were not just pretty faces; each of them had strength and were stunning beauties, meeting even one would be a blessing cultivated over several lifetimes.
Yet, Jiang Chen had a whole table of them.
Of course, Jiang Chen's strength was also beyond doubt.
She had inquired a bit that morning.
The Jin family was actually wiped out!
It's estimated that only Young Master Jiang Chen in the whole world could be worthy of such enjoyment.
After dinner, Jiang Chen changed into his new official uniform and headed to the Black Yamen yamen in Cangzhou City to report.
In Dongfeng Town, there wasn't even a Black Yamen yamen.
However, in Cangzhou City, the Black Yamen had a proper yamen.
Originally, Ling Jianglong presided over the Black Yamen in Cangzhou City.
Speaking of which, it's unknown how Ling Jianglong is doing now.
But logically, it shouldn't be a problem for Wang Fusheng to send some Demon Suppressing Envoys to deal with Ling Jianglong, especially since Ling Jianglong was already injured and couldn't pose a threat.
Jiang Chen arrived in front of the Black Yamen yamen.
The solemn and grand main gate of the Black Yamen was tightly shut, with only a small side door open for passage.
The two stone lions at the entrance were also painted pitch black.
Normally, the Black Yamen only opened a small door.
Only when major events occurred would the main gate of the Black Yamen be opened.
Whenever the main gate of the Black Yamen opened and countless Demon Slayer Guards rushed out, it meant the situation was even more serious than imagined.
"Jiang Chen!"
Just as Jiang Chen stood at the entrance, he saw Chu Yun, who had just been promoted to Centurion, walking towards him from a distance, her face beaming.
"Sister Chu Yun."
Jiang Chen went to meet her.
Apparently, Chu Yun had also heard about last night's events.
But at that time, Chu Yun was on her way to the Demon Palace with the city's reinforcements, so she didn't catch the exciting show.
However, upon hearing the news, Chu Yun couldn't sleep all night.
"You're really something. You're so good to your sister, how can your sister ever repay you?"
"Everything that should be given has been given to you."
"How about... if you want the other side, I'll give it to you too."
Saying that, Chu Yun bumped Jiang Chen with her perky backside, speaking with a blush.
"Cough, cough, I don't have that kind of fetish."
"If Sister Chu Yun wants to repay me, tonight..."
Jiang Chen leaned close to Chu Yun's ear and whispered.
Upon hearing Jiang Chen's words, even Chu Yun couldn't help but blush at her ears.
"You... if you like it... then I'll try."
Chu Yun nodded shyly.
Although she hadn't tried this particular method, she had heard about it before.
Even she herself was very curious.
Would this method really work?
After all, it's not as flexible and convenient as hands.
"Chu Yun."
A mature yet gentle voice came.
The two turned their heads and saw Lu Qian and Shen Lingshu walking together.
Shen Lingshu saw Jiang Chen and waved at him repeatedly.
"Jiang Chen... Sister Chu Yun."
Shen Lingshu stepped forward to greet them.
She was quite familiar with Chu Yun; after all, she and Sister Chu Yun had cooperated very closely that day.
"Lord Lu."
"Lord Lu."
Chu Yun and Jiang Chen bowed to Lu Qian.
Now, among the entire Black Yamen, the one with the highest status was Deputy Commander Lu Qian.
Seeing Lu Qian approach, Chu Yun dared not joke with Jiang Chen anymore and stood obediently.
Lu Qian brought Shen Lingshu in front of Jiang Chen.
"The matter with the Jin family, you were too impulsive. What if you got injured? You should have discussed it with us first."
Although Lu Qian's words were accusatory, they were also full of concern.
She had just gotten together with Jiang Chen; if anything happened to Jiang Chen, wouldn't that mean she brought bad luck to her husband?
"This matter was indeed a bit sudden, but a mere Jin family wouldn't be enough to injure me."
Jiang Chen chuckled.
"A mere Jin family!"
Shen Lingshu's eyes widened at the side.
She had previously been training in the Black Yamen's reserve in Cangzhou City.
Even Jin Baoguang, who wasn't particularly successful within the Jin family, could run rampant and was practically an emperor in the Black Yamen's reserve.
One can imagine how terrifying the entire Jin family was.
Yet, in Jiang Chen's mouth, it became "a mere Jin family"?
Had Jiang Chen's current strength reached a point where he no longer needed to eat beef?
"Smart-aleck."
"Alright, let's go in first."
"The Demon Palace was already sealed yesterday, and there will be some excavation work recently. There are many treasures in the Demon Palace; extracting these things might significantly boost the strength of our Cangzhou City."
There were also many treasures inside the Demon Palace; when Jiang Chen left, he just casually took a few.
After all, what he valued was not the Spiritual Plants, Spirit Medicine, or demonic treasures in the Demon Palace.
For him, these demons were the most precious resources, increasing his kill points and cultivation points was already perfect.
Jiang Chen didn't fancy the remaining items, so he simply left them for Lu Qian, which would also help her gain more merit.
Subsequently, under Lu Qian's supervision, the Demon Slayer Guards who came to report were also assigned.
Jiang Chen, however, got off lightly; after all, Jiang Chen still had the merit of annihilating the Tian Po Sect, plus the merit of the Jin family.
Lu Qian gave Jiang Chen seven days of vacation, asking him to rest if there were no urgent missions.
However, because of Jiang Chen's act of wiping out the Jin family, Lu Qian, as Deputy Commander, needed to meet with Jiang Chen to understand the specific situation.
After the meeting.
Lu Qian specifically instructed Jiang Chen to report to her office.
"Hmm? Report?"
Chu Yun's eyes narrowed, and she secretly glanced at Jiang Chen.
She had also used this method to secretly win over Jiang Chen back then.
Of course, Chu Yun hadn't yet realized that Jiang Chen had already won over Lord Lu Qian.
So she didn't think in that direction, only thinking about the matter and deliberately winking at Jiang Chen.
Jiang Chen was also startled.
"No way, I haven't even done anything yet."
"Was I found out so quickly?"
Chu Yun also had tasks, so after greeting Jiang Chen, she could only reluctantly leave first.
After the meeting.
Shen Lingshu received a secret letter from the capital, which was to be given to Lu Qian.
Immediately, Shen Lingshu, in her capacity as Lu Qian's Disciple, delivered the secret letter to Lu Qian.
Anyway, Jiang Chen was only reporting the situation, so there shouldn't be any major issues.
Just as Shen Lingshu arrived in front of Lu Qian's study, preparing to knock on the door, she suddenly heard some familiar sounds coming from inside the room.
Shen Lingshu's pretty face immediately turned red, and she stopped her knocking motion.
Faintly, she could hear Lord Lu Qian seemingly saying inside, "Don't... don't what inside?"
"What inside?"
