Chapter 1220: A New Situation
The question was, what would Yao Shu think about such arrangements? Would he harbor opinions about Qi Xuansu? Might he even regard Qi Xuansu as a threat?
Qi Xuansu did not know the answers, but he still had to be on guard.
If it truly came to a confrontation, Qi Xuansu certainly had the strength to contend with Yao Shu and even had a high chance of victory.
Of course, this would not be a clash of fists and blades, but a battle of deliberation and rhetoric.
Qi Xuansu would have an advantage in the Daoist Mansion Council.
News always traveled faster than people.
Once the personnel appointments were settled, Qi Xuansu immediately began arranging the reception for the newly appointed Mansion Master and the arrival of the new colleagues.
It was also at this moment that more good news arrived.
Chen Jianchou successfully passed the Grand Examination and obtained a formal Daoist Priest status. Moreover, due to his Heaven merit, he was directly elevated from a fourth-rank Daoist Priest Kindred to a fourth-rank Jijiu Daoist Master.
Even Qi Xuansu had never received a Heaven merit. Still, it was well deserved, considering it involved the descent of two Ancient Immortals.
There was also another surprise. Little Yin was promoted as well, advancing from a fourth-rank Jijiu Daoist to a third-rank Youyi Daoist.
This seemed somewhat abrupt, but this was a promise made by Great Sage Jiang. This was the weight of a casual remark from a Virtuous Great Sage.
