Tian Congyun once again visited Lin Shen's residence, where Lin, who was originally watching the ranking battle, had no choice but to take Tian Congyun to the living room.
"Chief of the Heavenly Institute's talent is so high, and his abilities so strong, it truly leaves one in awe," Tian Congyun complinted.
Lin Shen sighed and said, "It's just a pity that Kristin's vitality is so tenacious, I couldn't manage to kill him."
Tian Congyun smiled and said, "It's already enough. The Emperor has shown rcy by granting the Celestial Court ten director-level positions under the Special Service Departnt and allowing you to recruit personnel independently."
"Steward Yun, you also know that I co from a small race. What exactly does 'independent recruitnt for director-level positions' an?" Lin Shen asked.
"It ans, brother, that you can find ten of your own people to serve as directors at the Celestial Master Institute, subordinate to the Special Service Departnt. Plus, these ten positions are newly created and don't conflict with previous ones. Their benefits and treatnt co from the finances of the Celestial Master Institute; you don't have to pay out of your own pocket," Tian Congyun explained.
Upon hearing this, Lin Shen's face fell. It sounded nice to arrange for ten of his confidantes to enter the Institute, but to enter the Special Service Departnt ant to work in a departnt solely for dirty and tiring jobs. In all likelihood, they would even have to take on assignnts – using his own people in this way ant treating them like beasts of burden.
To say it's financed by the Celestial Master Institute and that he doesn't need to pay, but the Institute's finances aren't managed by the Celestial Race's finance departnt; it's paid by the Emperor's own accounting departnt.
Enjoy new tales from empire
Now, as he is able to make money for the Emperor, the Emperor is willing to provide these funds; but what if he can no longer make money for the Emperor? Would the Emperor still provide this money?
Previously, when the Celestial Master Institute had long overdue salaries that weren't paid, wasn't it because the Emperor didn't want to support the idle mbers of the Institute for free?
The only benefit was the enjoynt of so privileges.
So of the Celestial Race's resource-rich planets require a certain status to gain entry, as do various regulated resources that one needs a certain status to buy.
There are also various Evolution Skills and techniques, and with the corresponding ranks, there are corresponding libraries. One can only visit and learn from these once they have the requisite status.
Tian Congyun certainly knew what Lin Shen was thinking and said with a smile, "Chief Lin, the Emperor is very pleased with your performance this ti; there is another item he wishes to bestow upon you."
With that, Tian Congyun took out a card and handed it to Lin Shen.
"An Energy Conduction Permit for Celestial Star?" Lin Shen recognized it; he had one the last ti, but it was taken away after he left Celestial Star.
"From now on, you can co and go as you please on Celestial Star. The Emperor has given you the Silent Residence to live in, a distinction never awarded to anyone outside the Imperial Family," Tian Congyun said.
"The Emperor's grace," Lin Shen thought. "At last, so good news. Living on Celestial Star can indeed greatly aid my cultivation and save many resources."
"The forr head of the Special Service Departnt was ineffective, and the Emperor has already ordered his transfer to another departnt and sent a new head to assist you," Tian Congyun continued.
"Who is the new head?" Lin Shen actually knew in his heart; the new head should be the Heavenly Consort's elder brother, Kong Chuan, probably due to the Heavenly Consort's efforts and having persuaded Emperor Tianshu.
"This person is an old acquaintance of yours, you should be quite familiar with him, so it will be much easier for you to get things done," Tian Congyun teased before finally revealing the na: "Ouyang Yu from the Ouyang Family of Fierce Fire Star."
Lin Shen, upon hearing these words, was taken aback and looked at Tian Congyun with confusion. "Isn't it Kong Chuan?" he asked.
Tian Congyun shook his head with a smile, "Kong Chuan has also been transferred, but not to the Special Service Departnt; he's beco the Deputy Dean."
"Do you know which departnt the Deputy Dean Kong will be in charge of?" Lin Shen inquired.
"That is for you, as the Dean, to decide. However, Kong Chuan is the Heavenly Emperor's uncle by marriage—what an identity and status he holds. It's not appropriate to send him on those dangerous missions; it would be better to assign him a role that offers generous compensation for little trouble," said Tian Congyun.
Lin Shen thought to himself, "Well, the Heavenly Consort actually hasn't been able to handle Emperor Tianshu. While it's true that a Deputy Dean ranks higher than the head of the Special Service Departnt, without any departnt to oversee, it equates to a sinecure, devoid of any real power."
Lin Shen felt this was quite alright; he didn't want to use Kong Chuan either. Yet, instead of Emperor Tianshu giving direct orders, he was being made to take the bla. Lin Shen silently criticized in his mind, "Could it be that Emperor Tianshu is a Teflon reincarnate?"
Lin Shen could only bear this burden. Moreover, he didn't want Kong Chuan to beco the head of the Special Service Departnt. In the future, the Celestial Master Institute and Lin Shen would heavily rely on this departnt. If Kong Chuan were to act on his own, paying lip service to compliance but secretly going against orders, it would truly be unbearable.
After Tian Congyun left, Lin Shen imdiately moved to the Celestial Star, where even sleeping could improve the Base Mutation rate and facilitate the reincarnation of the Life Base, which was much stronger than here.
Upon arriving at the Silent Residence, he saw Tian Buluo inside, seemingly deep in thought with an ever-changing expression on his face.
"Prince, what are you doing here?" Lin Shen asked Tian Buluo with curiosity. At this ti, he should be participating in the ranking battles.
"Di Esi and Kristin both forfeited, and continuing to compete seed pointless, so I forfeited as well," said Tian Buluo. "Tian... no... Lin... after watching your battle with Di Esi, I realize that my own strength is still not enough, and defeating him seems too difficult. But I've also been unable to make a breakthrough in my Heaven and Celestial Beings Skill. So I'd like to visit the source of the River of Chaos; would you be willing to accompany ?"
"The River of Chaos? What place is that?" Lin Shen had never heard of this na before.
"The reason the Celestial Star is so rich in energy is because of the River of Chaos. The place we reside in now, including the Silent Residence, is all near a tributary of the River of Chaos," Tian Buluo explained in detail about the River of Chaos.
Near the tributaries of the River of Chaos, the energy is relatively stable, suitable for nourishing the body. However, the main riverway's energy is not as stable; although it is much stronger than here, it might not be conducive for the body to absorb and could even cause injury.
But if one can adapt to the chaotic energy of the River of Chaos, it is extrely beneficial for one's growth.
However, that was not the reason why Tian Buluo wanted to visit the River of Chaos.
His real destination was the source of the River of Chaos, Luoja Snow Mountain, which is where the past Heavenly Emperors were laid to rest.
"What will you do there?" Lin Shen asked Tian Buluo, sowhat surprised. This place was akin to the cetery of the elders of the Celestial Race. Tian Buluo going there—was he perhaps intending to disturb his own ancestors' graves?
"It is said that the Heavenly Emperor beca immortal at Luoja Snow Mountain. I want to see his Immortal body with my own eyes; perhaps I will have so insights which can help break through in the Heaven and Celestial Beings Skill," said Tian Buluo.
"You should think this through three tis, Prince. It doesn't seem quite proper, does it?" Lin Shen said hesitantly.
If this was discovered, Tian Buluo, as a Prince, might not face severe consequences from Emperor Tianshu. However, as an outsider, if he were to disturb the rest of the Celestial Race's ancestors, he could face serious repercussions, possibly even risking his life.
