The night was silent, and in the blink of an eye, the second day arrived.
As usual, Xiao Wuji ate the sesame seed cake and leisurely went to the Department of Discipline to check the time.
The only difference was that the Embroidered Spring Saber at Xiao Wuji's waist had turned into the Snow Guzzle Manic Saber.
The Flying Fish Garment and the Embroidered Spring Saber were the standard of the Embroidered Uniform Guards, but the Zhenfu Division did not require all Embroidered Uniform Guards to wear the Flying Fish Garment and carry the Embroidered Spring Saber.
The Flying Fish Apparels were fine, but the Embroidered Spring Saber was different.
After all, everyone cultivated different martial arts.
Some were skilled in fist techniques, some in palm techniques, and some in sword techniques.
It was impossible for the Office of Discipline to force these people to use the unfamiliar Embroidered Spring Sabers, which would weaken their combat strength.
Therefore, most of the Embroidered Uniform Guards in the Zhenfu Department did not use the Embroidered Spring Saber.
...
After entering the Discipline Department, Xiao Wuji realized that there were more people looking at him than usual.
Whenever he met a Brocade Guard on the road, anyone below the rank of a hundred would greet him with a smile, their expressions fawning and respectful.
Xiao Wuji understood that the news of him catching the rapist must have spread.
When Xiao Wuji arrived at the Hundred Households Office, Yang Dali immediately went up to him and hugged Xiao Wuji's shoulders as he laughed.
"Wuji ah, you brat really gave your father and Uncle Yang face.”
"The rapists who have troubled the Ministry of Justice for more than half a month, you captured them in one move, and you captured two at once.”
"You really shocked the world this time.”
If Xiao Wuji's breakthrough to the Xiantian Realm at such a young age was the first time he had made a name for himself in the Discipline Office, then after this mission, Xiao Wuji had shocked the world with a single brilliant feat.
This was because too many people were paying attention to the rapist case.
After Xiao Wuji solved this case, not only the Discipline Department, but other organizations like Six Fan School and East Military Hall would more or less know Xiao Wuji's name.
Xiao Wuji smiled and said," This mission is not difficult. There are many experts in the Discipline Department. There are many experts who can catch the rapist."”
"It's all because of Lord Thousand Households's favor that he handed the mission to me.”
Everyone carried the fancy sedan chair. The Jinyiwei were also officials, so their words had to be artistic.
"It's one thing for the Thousand Households to love you, but your own ability is another matter.”
"You don't know how many people are waiting to see you make a fool of yourself in this mission.”
"But when the news spread today, those people were dumbfounded.”
"Let's see who dares to look down on you because you're young.”
Yang Dali felt very pleased when he thought about how those people had changed from arrogance to respect.
Xiao Wuji smiled and shook his head.
He didn't care about this at all.
The Jinyiwei was a place where strength mattered.
As long as his strength was strong enough, he would be able to suppress the dissatisfaction below sooner or later.
Even if he didn't get this chance, he would get another one.
With his own strength, Xiao Wuji's back was strong. Sooner or later, he would rise up.
When it was noon, Xiao Wuji had just finished his lunch when he received a summons from Yuan Xiong.
"Subordinate Xiao Wuji greets Lord Thousand Households.”
Inside the Thousand Households Central Hall, Xiao Wuji cupped his fists and bowed.
"No need."
Yuan Xiong looked at Xiao Wuji.”
"His Majesty asked for three days to catch the rapist, and you completed it in one day. It can be said that you are swift and decisive.”
"After the case was reported, His Majesty was very happy and specially rewarded you with the position of a hundred households.”
"From today onwards, you are the centenarian of the Northern Town Governor.”
"Men."
Yuan Xiong gave the order, and an Embroidered Uniform Guard walked in.
He was holding a tray with both hands. Inside the tray was a neatly folded Hundred Households Flying Fish Garment and an embroidered spring saber, as well as a Hundred Households Token and a banknote.
Whether it was the flying fish suit's style, fabric, or the quality of the embroidered spring knife, they were far superior to the general flag configuration.
Unfortunately, Xiao Wuji already had the Snow Drinking Saber, so he could no longer use this new Embroidered Spring Saber.
"Centurion Xiao, I hope that you will serve the Imperial Court with all your heart in the future, just like today.”
"Yes, this subordinate will do as you say."
Xiao Wuji cupped his fists and bowed.
As for Yuan Xiong's words, it was fine for him to just listen.
In terms of loyalty, Xiao Wuji was only loyal to himself.
As a modern transmigrator, Xiao Wuji did not have much respect for the so-called emperor.
It was impossible for a person whom he had never met to risk his life for.
Yuan Xiong looked at Xiao Wuji and continued,""This time, in addition to the position of a hundred households, His Majesty has also specially rewarded you with a thousand taels of silver and a bottle of fifth-grade medicinal pills.”
"Yes, this subordinate will take his leave."
Xiao Wuji cupped his fists and bowed, then turned around to take the tray and strode away.
Yuan Xiong looked at Xiao Wuji's back and muttered to himself," I didn't expect Xiao Ruohai, that mediocre guy, to give birth to a genius like Xiao Wuji.”
"I've never heard him mention it before.”
"If I had such a genius son, I would have shown off to everyone.”
A voice suddenly sounded behind Yuan Xiong." I've already investigated Xiao Wuji's life.”
"Before he turned sixteen, Xiao Wuji had no interest in learning martial arts. As a result, his martial arts were mediocre, and he was unable to break through to third-rate at sixteen.”
"After he turned sixteen, Xiao Wuji seemed to have changed into a different person. He focused on practicing martial arts every day and forgot to eat or sleep.”
"But judging from his performance in the past two years, he's only a third-rate martial artist.”
"It's as if he's suddenly become a different person. It's really unbelievable.”
The speaker only heard the voice, but could not see the person.
