The official Registrar’s Department would organize a Registration Examination every time there was a major examination. Many people who were interested in becoming an official would choose which Ministry or local government they wanted to enter and take the examination when the time came.

There were written and combat examinations. The so-called written exam referred to the functions of the position that cultivators registered for. Questions were set and essays were written. They roughly explained how they should carry out their work and what they should do after entering the position. And the combat examination was naturally a test of cultivation and actual combat.

For some positions, the written exam took up a greater proportion. For example, some administrative officials were in charge of the calculation of tax revenue. As for the Supreme Court, which was in charge of law and arrest, the importance of the written test was very small, and the combat test was a little bigger.

The official records Department would arrange the empty positions according to the results of the examination.

An ambitious person like Lu Wenen might be dissatisfied with the empty positions arranged by the official Registrar’s Department. If he wanted to have higher requirements, he would raise his requirements for a specific official position after passing the examination.

The official records Department would approve this and decide whether to agree or not. Once they agreed, they would arrange for the person sitting in that position to compete with the Challenger. It was also divided into a written test and a combat test.

This was the entire process.

Of course, the first few steps of the entire process were probably carried out every time an official was selected. However, the so-called ‘challenge’ segment was not the case. There was a way to become a high-ranking official in name. In theory, one could even become a Prime Minister directly through this way.

However, in practice, unless the Yingluo had already reached an agreement in some political deal, or some Big Shot had already formulated it, otherwise, when the official Registrar received such a challenge application, 99% of them would directly reject it, not even giving the opportunity to challenge.

The reason why Lu Wenen was able to pass the written and combat examinations challenge application, defeat the former left supervisor of the court, and take his place, was definitely because he had received the care of someone.

Let’s not talk about this part of care first. The matter of winning the challenge was always obvious.

After becoming the left supervisor of the Supreme Court, the current Supreme Court official, Guan leping, met with Lu Wenen with a polite and distant attitude.

The Guan family that Guan leping represented was also one of the four major families in Yan city. He was a supporter of the Imperial grandson, Li Xuanhao. However, compared to the other Zhang and Zhao families, the Guan family did not support the Imperial grandson very much. In a sense, they were more neutral.

Otherwise, if Guan leping, as the Dean of the court, really insisted on going through the challenge for too long, and Lu Wenen refused to let him in even after he had completed the process of the challenge, things would really be very difficult to handle.

Such a thing did not happen.

After all, if he did that, it would be equivalent to offending the Lu family and pushing the Lu family to the crown prince’s side.

Previously, when the Lu clan didn’t directly accept the position that crown prince Li Chengzong gave them, Li Xuanhao already felt that the Lu clan had a chance of fighting for it. At this time, they naturally wouldn’t do anything to push the Lu clan to the other side.

After Lu Wenen became the left supervisor of the Supreme Court, he began to work very seriously.

Logically speaking, in his position, investigating cases and arresting people were not things he needed to do. Even though the director of the arrest Department was not under him and reported directly to the Chief Justice, his official position was not as high as his in name.

However, Lu Wenen did not care about that.

After he took office, he directly arranged for all the cultivators who came with him from Feiyun state to work in the Supreme Court. He still had the authority to do so. After all, although these cultivators from the Qingfeng sect and a few from the Lu clan were only at the Qi refining and foundation building levels, they were not high-ranking officials. It would be easy for them to pass the examination. It would not be a problem for them to make it into the arrest Department and become constables.

After that, he took these people, as well as a few local nobodies who had no foundation, and started to ‘mess around’.

In the eyes of many people in the Supreme Court, the New Left supervisor was just fooling around.

How could there be a left supervisor who didn’t care about other matters and led a group of people to investigate and arrest people every day?

However, most of the people in the Supreme Court were happy to see it.

Many people were afraid that the New Left supervisor would break the balance of power in the Supreme Court. Even though Lu Wenen did not have much of a Foundation, his position was still there, after all. There were indeed some people who were worried.

In the end, this person didn’t fight for power or profit, but focused on investigating the case, which made many people very happy. As long as you, the left supervisor, are happy and don’t interfere with the power of the Ministry, then everything will be fine.

But who would have thought that the left supervisor would stir up such a huge matter today?

When Lu Wenen led his team back to the arrest Department, he threw the unconscious Zhao Siwei, as well as the dejected Zhao Siwei’s lackeys, who he had walked over to, into the prison. The entire arrest Department was in a mess.

As soon as he walked out of the arrest department’s prison, Lu Wenen saw a man wearing a black python robe. He stepped on a metal chain and flew over in a panic.

“Director Wang.” Hello, ” Wenen greeted.

The person who came was called Wang Sheng, the director of the arrest Department, a cultivator at the second level of the initial enlightenment stage.

“Oh my God, left supervisor, why did you bring Zhao Siwei here?” Wang Sheng’s face was filled with bitterness.

“He violated the law, why can’t he be arrested?”

“What did he do?”

“Does kidnapping and forcing low-level female cultivators count?”

“Didn’t they say that he did it willingly?”

“After my investigation, the truth is not like that. We already have a lot of evidence that he forced and threatened many female cultivators.”

ai, ai, ai, ai. Wang Sheng said softly, ” with Zhao Siwei’s status, it’s not a crime for him to play with a few female cultivators, left supervisor Xuanji. Please listen to me and let her go. Xuanji, if you’re lacking anything, you can take this opportunity to ask the Zhao family for some. It’s not a big deal, but don’t really cause any trouble.

“Director Wang, that’s not right. He violated the law and was punished. What does that have to do with his identity? Don’t say anything more, director Wang just do your own thing, if you cause any trouble during this time, I will bear it. ”

Helplessly, director Wang Sheng could only leave.

Lu Wenen stared at his back for a short while before returning to the prison.

From Wang Sheng’s hurried words, he also felt that capturing Zhao Siwei was just the beginning. Once he made his move, there would be great trouble. In the foreseeable future, it would come one after another.

He didn’t know if he could hold on, and he didn’t know if the so-called crown prince’s line would help him. Even his superior, Guan leping, was considered an ally of the Zhao family. If the Chief Justice were to speak up in person, it would be very difficult for him to refuse to release the man.

It seemed that he had to make full use of the time since he did not know how long Zhao Siwei could be detained.

......

“Junior Brother Lu, why are you back? Zhao Siwei wouldn’t wake up until at least the next day. The person guarding the prison was a cultivator of the Qingfeng sect.

“I can’t wait until tomorrow.” Lu Wenen said, ” I’m preparing to wake him up in advance.

“Junior Brother has a way?” The man was a little surprised.

He was also a wood-attribute cultivator and was proficient in medical treatment. He was also good at nourishing the meridians and body. It was also because of this that he was assigned to look after Zhao Siwei.

In his opinion, Zhao Siwei’s life essence had been absorbed too much. He had no idea how Lu Wenen had done it, but he had a vague feeling that the cultivation technique Lu Wenen had used was very special and different.

At the very least, in the Feiyun state, there had never been a second person who could use a wood element cultivation technique like this.

...

The loss of life source was the main reason why Zhao Siwei was in a coma. It was also the reason that could not be solved. At the very least, he, a wood attribute foundation building cultivator, couldn’t handle this matter. Even if it was Qiming, he felt that he could not do anything. He could only wait for Zhao Siwei to recover and wake up on his own. After that, his cultivation Foundation would probably be greatly damaged.

However, Lu Wenen had a plan.

He just had to send back the life Elementium he had absorbed. He, who had learned the creation book, was a very good healer.

This process of sucking out and sending it back would cause secondary damage to Zhao Siwei. What’s more, this kind of life essence that was re-injected was actually no longer Zhao Siwei’s own. This process of pouring it back would make his damage more serious.

Wenen did not do this before mainly because he could not bear to do so. He was afraid that Zhao Siwei would not live for long even if he could wake up earlier from the stimulation of the life essence.

But now, it seemed that there was no need to care about this.

Standing next to Zhao Siwei, who was lying on the ground, Lu Wenen’s Wood-attribute spirit energy gradually transformed into life force and was injected into Zhao Siwei’s body. The green light wrapped around Zhao Siwei’s body.

Soon, the skinny Zhao Siwei, who was unconscious, swelled up in a very short time like a balloon being filled with air. He even looked fatter than before and his whole body was swollen. At the same time, his face had turned from sickly pale to red.

However, it was clear that this was not normal. However, Zhao Siwei slowly woke up.

Lu Wenen moaned. his voice was a little strange, and it sounded like he was weeping. Zhao Siwei was shocked when he heard this.

Then, he also felt that his life was unusually vigorous in his body. It was as if there was a fire in his heart that had nowhere to vent.

...

“You’re about to die.” Lu Wenen’s emotionless voice entered Zhao Siwei’s ears.

what did you do to me?! Zhao Siwei was terrified.

Even though he didn’t know what was happening to his body, it was obviously unusual.

He sat up from the ground, his back against the corner of the wall, trembling.

“I can let you live, but you’ll answer whatever I ask.”

“Don’t even think about it!”

Lu Wenen didn’t waste any more time. He raised his hand and continued to transform the wood spiritual force into a foreign form of life essence and transfused it into Zhao Siwei’s body. He asked emotionlessly, ” “Four years ago, the Lu family was attacked by the faceless society led by Fan Li. Was it your Zhao family who ordered it?”

“No!” Zhao Siwei felt that the strange and itchy feeling in his body was getting more and more obvious. However, he still denied Lu Wenen’s question.

“Tell me the truth.” Lu Wenen continued to increase the infusion of life force.

In the years since he became the left supervisor of the Supreme Court, Lu Wenen seemed to have been doing all sorts of apprehensions and investigations. However, in essence, he had not forgotten his most important goal-to investigate the attack from back then.

In the country of Yan, there was a force that could mobilize such a powerful team of death Warriors. Furthermore, it had malicious intentions towards the Lu family and directly launched an attack. This matter itself was quite chilling.

Most importantly, the other party was still completely hidden under the water.

Of course, this matter had to be investigated thoroughly first. Lu Wenen came to Yan city, entered the Imperial court, and took up a post in the Supreme Court. In essence, it was to figure out this matter.

After he entered the Supreme Court, he received a summary of the cases from the entire country and various parties. It was truly an eye-opener for Lu Wenen regarding the dark side of the country of Yan.

The Feiyun state was still too pure. With the Feiyun state at the top and the major families at the bottom firmly controlling the area, the combination of the two would at most leave some space for some scattered bandits to live in. It would be difficult to breed too much darkness-if the evil deeds of the small and medium-sized families were not taken into account.

It seemed that a similar situation was probably happening within the Yunxiao sect’s direct jurisdiction. The Yunxiao sect was much stronger than the Qingfeng sect, and they should have a greater control over the areas under their direct jurisdiction.

However, it was a different matter in the places where the Imperial court had greater influence.

Among these dark sides, Lu Wenen caught the tail of an organization called the ‘faceless society’.

It was said that this was a very secretive organization. Even in the underground world of cultivators, they were very low-key. Very few people knew about them, but everyone who had heard of them kept it a secret, afraid that they would be killed if they spoke more.

After that, Lu Wenen spent two years of effort to capture a member of the faceless society.

From that person’s words, he learned that the faceless society’s organizational structure was very secretive. He only knew how to contact his superiors and subordinates, but he didn’t know their true identities.

However, he had met Zhao Siwei once.

Before Lu Wenen could ask for more information, the man’s expression turned into one of horror. He did not manage to utter a single word before his entire body began to burn from the inside out. Lu Wenen did not even have time to save him as he was burned to ashes.

This method was exactly the same as what happened after the battle when the Lu clan’s caravan was attacked.

This person must have disappeared suddenly and was discovered by his superior. Then, he decisively activated the restriction in this person’s body and killed him.

Even though he did not manage to get more information, Lu Wenen at least had a lead on Zhao Siwei.

This was also the main reason why he sold it to capture Zhao Siwei.

As for the so-called crime of ‘threatening female cultivators’, although Zhao Siwei had indeed done it, it was obviously more like an excuse.

The faceless society’s matter was the real deal.
