Yang Haoran was smiling as he spoke, his tone slow and deliberate, and he was constantly observing Zhu Rong's facial expressions.
Under his observation, he saw that Zhu Rong was slightly moved, but not obviously so.
Yang Haoran was not in a hurry, because he still had so benefits to offer.
After finishing his sentence, he didn't imdiately continue speaking, because he wanted to give Zhu Rong so ti to digest what he had said.
He got up and poured three cups of tea, first personally handing two cups to Bai Xue and Zhu Rong, and then keeping one for himself.
"Hehe, I'm not particular about tea, and there aren't many complicated rules, so just make do with it."
Yang Haoran smiled as he spoke, then picked up his teacup and took a light sip, moistening his throat.
"May I have so ti to consider, Yang Divine Envoy?" Zhu Rong asked, symbolically taking a sip of the hot tea in her cup, then gently putting it down.
As soon as she said this, Zhu Rong felt that she had spoken out of turn, so she quickly added another sentence.
"Yang Divine Envoy, please don't worry, I won't use this ti to escape or do anything sneaky, because I know that Yang Divine Envoy can kill as easily as snapping his fingers, and if I try to do sothing behind his back, I'll definitely be saying goodbye to this world soon, and might not even be able to keep my soul, so I won't do sothing so stupid."
Yang Haoran chuckled and gently put down his teacup.
"Don't worry, listen to first, I didn't speak up earlier because I wanted to give you so ti to digest what I said, not because I've already finished offering the benefits."
Zhu Rong's face changed slightly as she heard this.
"Please speak, Yang Divine Envoy, I'm all ears."
Yang Haoran organized his words, then asked Zhu Rong, "Have you ever thought about becoming a non-ordinary person with abilities?"
Zhu Rong was slightly taken aback, not having expected Yang Haoran to ask her such a question at this ti, and she hesitated for a mont before nodding lightly.
"Of course, who wouldn't want to beco a non-ordinary person? An ordinary person, no matter how powerful, will still beco a pawn or plaything in the hands of the strong, and in tis of peace, it's even more so. Only by having strong enough abilities can one escape becoming a pawn and have everything they want, which is an eternal truth." Zhu Rong spoke up.
"Since you've thought about becoming a non-ordinary person, why not develop in that direction? With your identity as Lecheng's Deputy Director, it shouldn't be difficult to achieve." Yang Haoran smiled as he spoke.
Zhu Rong heard this and shook her head with a helpless expression.
"To get sothing, you must give up sothing else. As Lecheng's Deputy Director, I'm bogged down in trivial matters every day, and I barely have ti to sleep, let alone ti to cultivate. It's not just , Sun Yu and the late Director were the sa. Although I don't get along with them, and even look down on them in my heart, I have to admit that they've contributed a lot to Lecheng, even if their goals aren't entirely pure."
"Lecheng used to be just a city, and it was relatively easy to manage, because Lecheng had the Highest Administrative Court behind it, which could solve many difficult problems. But now Lecheng is no longer just a city, it's almost like a small independent country, so the difficulties it faces are far from what they used to be, and as Lecheng's Deputy Director, I'm naturally even busier, and I didn't have ti to cultivate in the past, let alone now."
"Before I beca the Deputy Administration Director of Lecheng, I didn't believe in supernatural beings at all, so I never thought of taking the path of cultivation. But after I beca the Deputy Administration Director, I learned about the existence of the Spirit Police organization and realized that this world was not as simple as I thought. That's when I started to have the idea of cultivating, because only by increasing my own strength could I be truly powerful.
"However, if I chose to cultivate, I would have to give up my position as Deputy Administration Director, because I wouldn't have any ti. But if I really gave up my position, I would be abandoned by everyone, and no one would care about , a ordinary woman. They wouldn't even bother to help take the path of cultivation, let alone hinder .
"Moreover, I had to work hard to get to where I am today as the Deputy Administration Director of Lecheng, and I wouldn't easily give up this position. I not only wouldn't give up, but I also wanted to continue to climb higher through my own efforts, even if it ant risking my life, because I was determined to achieve my goal.
"So, I still haven't had the chance to take the path of cultivation, but I haven't completely given up. I have already planned it out in my heart, and after I beco the Administration Director of Lecheng, I won't follow the old path of the previous Administration Director. I will do things my own way, and I will thoroughly clean up the Lecheng Administrative Bureau, and cultivate a few trusted followers. This way, I can not only control the entire Lecheng but also have ti to cultivate, killing two birds with one stone. Unfortunately, this goal has not been achieved yet."
Yang Haoran had already had so guesses about what Zhu Rong was saying, because he had investigated her before and had so understanding of this aspect.
However, not all cities were like Lecheng Administrative Bureau, where the Administration Director and Deputy Administration Director were ordinary people. So cities had capable and powerful Administration Directors and Deputy Administration Directors.
Lecheng was like this because of the circumstances, and the administrators couldn't even handle the most basic tasks, let alone have ti to cultivate. Of course, this was also related to the personalities of the three Administration Directors of Lecheng.
Yang Haoran had already understood what Zhu Rong was saying, but he didn't interrupt her and let her continue talking, which was a sign of respect and also a tactic.
Until Zhu Rong finished speaking, Yang Haoran smiled and said, "As long as you agree to my conditions, I can help you achieve your goals that you haven't been able to achieve in these years. I can make you the new Administration Director of Lecheng, and I can give you the power to make you not an ordinary person from now on. This is one of the benefits I can offer you."
Zhu Rong's face didn't show any surprise or excitent, but instead remained calm.
"Now that the Administration Director is dead, and Sun Yu is also dead, with your ability as the Yang Divine Envoy, plus my position in the Administrative Bureau, it's not difficult to make the Administration Director today."
"As for giving the power that ordinary people don't have, it's a piece of cake for you, Yang Divine Envoy. Because you are the Burial Master of the Yin Division, a genuine Underworld Envoy, and you only need to give the Death Mark Seal, and I can imdiately have the power, and from now on, I won't be an ordinary person anymore."
"But this way, I, Zhu Rong, will not only be controlled by you but also beco a believer of the Death God, at least on the surface. A dignified Administration Director becoming a believer of the Death God is equivalent to giving the Yin Division free advertising. This so-called benefit is actually you, Yang Divine Envoy, eating the at, while I'm just drinking a bowl of soup."
As the Deputy Administration Director, Zhu Rong knew very well about the cultivation thods and power-upgrading ways of the Yin Division. She knew that the Yin Division was different from other forces, and that as long as she had the Death Mark Seal, she could imdiately have the power that ordinary people didn't have, and could directly use pure yin qi to upgrade her strength without wasting too much ti on cultivation.
She knew all this, but she had never co to find Yang Haoran, because she didn't want to be controlled by him, nor did she want to beco a believer of the Death God, which would give the Yin Division free advertising and have a negative impact on her.
Moreover, there was another crucial point: even if Yang Haoran gave her the Death Mark Seal, without a large amount of pure yin qi, she couldn't upgrade her strength. To get pure yin qi, the Yin Division's soul pill was the top choice, which ant she would be controlled by Yang Haoran forever.
It was because of these reasons that she had wanted to take the path of cultivation for years but had never co to find Yang Haoran and propose to have the Death Mark Seal.
