“But what?” Grandma Jin Chan’s face tightened. Speaking of which, she is the caretaker of Fuyun Broken Realm, and if something goes wrong, she would have to bear the blame.

　　Daoist Tianling extended her hand towards Granny Jinchan, revealing a dead thing the size of a soybean on her palm… The dead thing had a long beard on its head. Although it was small, it was full of sharp teeth and looked extremely ferocious.

　　”Is this a Gu worm?” “Impossible, how could a Gu worm enter the sealed place?” said Grandma Jin Chan, narrowing her eyes again.

　　Daoist Zi Luo said: “These are not Gu worms from the outside world, but Gu worms from within the Fuyun Broken Realm. They bit a way through the seal and got out from inside.”

　　Granny Jinchan: “The seal?”

　　”The seal is fine. This Gu worm is not strong, and if it gets close to the seal, it will be shocked to death by the force of the seal. Tianling and I have reinforced the seal and repaired the part that was bitten through.”

　　”However, this Gu worm was able to find the weakest part of the seal, so there may be some problems in it.” Zi Luo continued, “There is still a trace of spatial fluctuations around the seal, although it has dissipated for a while, but it does not seem to have formed naturally.”

　　”I’ll report this matter back to the Great Heavenly Master and ask him to make a decision. During this period of time, I have to trouble Sanshun to carefully watch over it.”

　　Jin Sanshun hurriedly bowed and said: “I will definitely do my best.” Jin Sanshun remembered Chen Luo telling her earlier that it was the Confucianism Su Liancheng who interfered with the wormhole teleportation of the Gu Sect, eventually trapping him in the one-line gorge, but it was still unknown if there was any connection between them.

　　She looked up at Daoist Tianling, and said, “Daoist Tianling, that good teacher…”

　　Daoist Tianling nodded: “I know, I will report this matter to the Great Heavenly Master!”

　　…

　　In the Imperial Officials Road.

　　Several carriages formed a convoy, traveling on the official road. First came a few burly guards riding tall horses, followed by the carriages of seventh-rank officials with “Wan’an” banners on them, and behind them followed a rather luxurious-looking carriage. It was a middle-aged scribe about forty years old, with a smiling face.

　　If Chen Luo saw it, he would definitely recognize the middle-aged scribe driving the carriage as Mr. Li from Wan’an County, who was with him when they were killing tigers.

　　It turned out that according to the court system, after Wan’an County became Chen Luo’s fiefdom, the local officials should return to Zhongjing to report on their duties, and the local officials would be appointed separately. Even if Chen Luo still asked Cai Tongchen to continue serving as the magistrate of Wan’an County, he would still need to come back to complete the formalities and readjust the term of office.

　　A few days ago, Cai Tongchen had already arranged related affairs in the county and brought Chen Xuan back to Zhongjing together. After traveling for quite some time, Zhongjing was already in sight.

　　”Miss Chen, the ferry is right ahead of you. I’ll sleep tonight and leave tomorrow morning, arriving in Zhongjing at noon.” Master Li said to the carriage behind him. From the carriage, a gentle female voice said: “It’s all up to Uncle Cai and Master Li.”

　　The voice was naturally Chen Xuan.

　　Master Li was so frightened that he let go of the whip in his hand and quickly reminded: “Miss Chen must never call the county magistrate like that again. It stands to reason that now the Lord of Wan An is the county magistrate’s young master, and you are his mistress. Don’t say anything about uncle, otherwise my county magistrate will find it difficult to deal with himself…”

　　A look of embarrassment flashed across Chen Xuan’s face in the carriage: “This…well, I will write it down.”

　　At the same time, Cai Tongchen, who was in the official carriage ahead, heard Master Li’s words and spat out a mouthful of tea.

　　Thinking about himself, he was born as a scholar with the highest grades, a seventh-rank county magistrate, and he even had a toast with Chen Luo’s father back then, and when he last saw Chen Luo, he was also a good nephew. Now, the other party has become his little master!

　　”However, in this way, it seems that the mentor will also call him little uncle!” Thinking of Wei Yan, Cai Tongchen felt a little better.

　　”After returning to Zhongjing, you can visit your mentor first, and seek some advice on how to deal with a sudden decline in seniority… As a great Confucian, my mentor must have already adjusted his mood.” Cai Tongchen thought to himself, “My mentor treats me like his own. If I ask this question, my mentor will definitely teach me everything!” “

　　”Anyway, I am also a fallen person in the world, and my mentor and I have the same experience again… Well, that’s what I will do…”

　　…

　　”Ah!” In the Wenchang Pavilion, Wei Yan sneezed, and suddenly had a feeling that something that would make him very angry would happen next, but he couldn’t figure out the reason for it.

　　”Hey, old Wei, as a great Confucian, why is his body so weak?” Kong Tianfang looked at Wei Yan and said with a smile, “Hurry up, this is Huoxiang Zhengqi Pill, it is also effective for recuperating the body of a great Confucian.” Then, Kong Tianfang took out a small box from his sleeve and handed it to Wei Yan.

　　Wei Yan took the Huoxiangzhengqi Pill, casually placed it on the table, and smiled: “Old Kong, tell me, what can I do for you?”

　　”The friendship between gentlemen is as light as water. If I want to ask you for help, just say it straight there is no need to look at me like this. I, Kong Tianfang, am also the head of a school of teaching and educating people!”

　　”I’ve accepted that thing, don’t mention it to me anymore!”

　　Kong Tianfang smiled again: “It’s just to recommend talents!”

　　”Recommend talents? Do you want to recommend students from Zheliu Academy to Wenchang Pavilion? How about the knowledge, I need two assistants.”

　　”No, no!” Kong Tianfang quickly waved his hand and said, “Didn’t we discuss sending students to connect with the Lord of Wan An before? Zheliu Academy went through layers of selection, and finally selected one of the best students in the academy, Yang Hou Ye!”

　　Wei Yan frowned: “You can decide on this matter on your own, why are you looking for me?”

　　”Hey, each of the eight academies has chosen one. I was thinking, aren’t you the Lord of Wan An’s scholarly nephew? I would like to ask you to open your mouth, and also recommend it!”

　　Wei Yan looked Kong Tianfang up and down.

　　I’m afraid you don’t know, in order to avoid shouting the words “Little Martial Uncle”, during this time when I saw Chen Luo walking around, and even Song Tuizhi went to greet Chen Luo when Chen Luo was not at home.

　　You want me to recommend you?

　　Wei Yan’s face darkened, he took out the Huoxiang Zhengqi Pill from his sleeve and spoke righteously.

　　”How can such a big event be passed on privately?”

　　”Where is the law of the country, where’s the propriety, justice, integrity? Is there no shame!?”

　　”If I agree, wouldn’t I be bringing shame to my teacher’s teaching!”

　　”Don’t mention it again!”

　　Kong Tianfang: (“? ヘ?)”

　　It’s not that I want you to become a scoundrel! Why are you so emotional?

　　…

　　On the ferry.

　　Xiaohuan came to Chen Xuan’s side, bouncing around: “Miss, Miss, I just heard about the young master from the business travelers in the past, and the young master has become so powerful now.”

　　Chen Xuan took a sip of water, and smiled lightly: “Luo’er is enlightened, it was only a matter of time until his talent naturally showed… Are those merchants saying anything wrong with Luo’er?”

　　”They said that the young master is now in the top brothel in Zhongjing City, and his fame is as high as that of the brothel master Liu Hezhuang!”

　　Chen Xuan couldn’t help clenching her fist: “Is there any more?”

　　”I also said that the young master wrote a famous song that has been sung through the ages, played it with a girl, and gave her the song.”

　　Chen Xuan: (╬◣д◢)

　　Chen Xuan: Is there any more?

　　”And… um? Miss, why don’t you look so good?”

　　”Xiaohuan!”

　　”Miss, what are your orders?”

　　”Be careful on the road, pick up a wooden stick for me, choose a sturdier one…”
