After a while, she finally put down the phone, her expression strangely turning towards Xue Jing.
"Xue Jing... you've been promoted."
Xue Jing: "Hm?"
Void Blade: "You are now an honorary special advisor for the White Crow Task Force of The Sixth Bureau Special Duties Departnt... "
Xue Jing asked in confusion, "And what was I before?"
"Before, you were an honorary mber of my 838 team."
Void Blade pondered for a mont and explained, "This is a special title specially created for you... In terms of rank, it's equivalent to our captain of the White Crow Squad."
Xue Jing smiled and curiously asked, "A rank higher than you?"
Void Blade shook her head, "Two ranks higher... A squad consists of more than five teams, the team leader is followed by the vice squad leader, and only above that is the squad leader."
Her expression was a bit strange: "From now on, we have to call you 'chief'... "
Xue Jing sighed, "No need to be so formal, just call chief in front of outsiders, privately just like before is fine."
Void Blade: "..."
The Mountain Demon beside them twitched his lips: "You really don't feel like an outsider at all... "
Xue Jing smiled and said, "Just kidding... This special advisor role doesn't really impose any duties on , right?"
Void Blade shook her head, "Don't worry, everything is the sa as before, still depending on your decision to accept or decline White Crow's assignnts... However, now you have a higher rank and more authority, you can command mbers of White Crow below the squad leader level, like ."
Xue Jing nodded, "I see."
He then asked in confusion, "But just for completing one mission, I was given this promotion, don't you think White Crow's promotions are a bit too easy?"
At that, Void Blade and the Mountain Demon fell silent.
"...you really don't understand the value of the Pureblood Dragon Species you killed."
The Mountain Demon scratched his head and said helplessly.
"That's a monster that would normally require the combined effort of at least three White Crow squads to handle, and you solved it single-handedly. No matter the thod, this achievent is considered phenonal."
"Our commander at White Crow is probably trying by all ans to keep you around... even using unconventional thods like creating new positions."
Xue Jing smiled and said, "Alright, let's focus on the main topic, when are we heading back to Maple City?"
The Mountain Demon shrugged and said, "Now you're the chief, you decide."
Xue Jing nodded, "Then let's set off imdiately."
After speaking, he walked over to the table, picked up the mirror on it, and asked the Mirror Person lying in the mirror:
"Little Mirror, what about you?"
The Mirror Person lazily waved his hand: "Wu Youqing promised freedom, I want to lazily enjoy myself for a while... Don't worry about , I'll co to find you to hang out when I have ti."
Xue Jing smiled and nodded: "Then so long."
...
After bidding farewell to everyone at the camp, Xue Jing and the mbers of Xuren Squad boarded the Dragon Core Airplane they arrived on and hurried toward Maple City.
This trip to the Intersecting Boundaries had brought him the greatest gains since he had accessed the panel.
A total of six thousand points of Divinity, countless regular skill Experience Points, a new Divine Skill 'Dragon Horn', a Mystic Art Level technique 'Cherry Full Moon', and the 'Dragon Cherry' seeds...
More than a full bounty could describe?
Compared to when he had arrived, his power had increased several tis over.
On the plane, Xue Jing looked at the scenery outside the window for a while and then picked up his smartphone, which he had left on the plane before entering the Intersecting Boundaries.
As soon as he turned it on, it imdiately popped up with countless ssage notifications and missed calls.
From his parents, his sister, friends, and from his master and senior fellow disciples.
Xue Jing replied to each one.

"...so you're saying, you're coming back today?"
"What ti will you arrive? I'll co to pick you up~"
The lively and cheerful voice of his sister Xue Wan ca from the phone.
"Yeah." Xue Jing nodded and then looked at the ti.
It was eleven o'clock, and based on the previous four-plus hour trip from Maple City to Roaring Waterfall, it was estimated that he would only reach Maple City around three in the afternoon.
The competition was starting at four in the afternoon.
After thinking it over, Xue Jing said, "I will probably go directly to the competition. If you want to see , co to the stadium."
Xue Wan sounded troubled, "It seems like because you are appearing, the tickets were sold out a few days ago."
"No problem, I'll have Wei take you in, just like last ti sitting in the contestants' area. The organizer won't say anything." Xue Jing said.
Xue Wan happily said, "Then that's settled."
Xue Jing rested his hand on his knee, tapping his fingers idly as he ntioned, "By the way, how is Feng Wan, still alive?"
Xue Wan chided discontentedly, "Why do you say it as if she's in mortal danger? With here, how could anything happen to her!"
"It's because you're there that I worry about her." Xue Jing retorted.
This cat-lover fanatic... who knows what hellish severe punishnt Miao Miao endured these past seven days...
Xue Wan huffed, "If a cat is uncomfortable, it will run away on its own. She definitely likes petting her!"
"Right now, she's letting pet her on my lap!"
"Co on, Little Feng Wan, ow for your daddy to hear?"
On the other end of the phone, Xue Wan put the phone next to Miao Miao's ear on her thigh.
Then a faintly resigned ow could be heard.
"How about that~"
Xue Wan triumphantly said.
Xue Jing sighed and said helplessly, "...stop using terms that can easily be misunderstood, my foolish sister."
He knew that his sister would call herself 'mom' in front of Miao Miao.
Wasn't this confusing? If others heard it, it could lead to misunderstandings.
