Alchemy Emperor of the Divine Dao-Chapter 3772 - : Crimson Captain
Chapter 3772: Crimson Captain
“What an exciting battle, too exciting!” The host called out loudly, “And now, the top victor of today has finally appeared, and that is Ling – Han—”
Following his near-hysterical roar, thunderous cheers also sounded from the spectators’ seats.
“Ling Han performed very well. I am very pleased, and bestow upon him the title of Crimson Captain, serving in the Heaven Military Manor.” An incredibly majestic voice rang out from the spectators’ seats, booming and mighty. It was the current emperor of the Azure Dragon Majestic Empire, Meng Yonghua.
A smile tugged at the corners of Ling Han’s lips. He had been conferred the title of Captain, and was now working in the government. Thus, he naturally had a grand reason to leave the Political Hostage Manor.
He raised his clasped hands, and said, “Thank you, Your Majesty.”

“En?” On the spectators’ seats, Meng Yonghua showed a hint of displeasure.
Tang Lei, who was beside him, hurriedly said, “Your Majesty, the Dark North Nation is primitive and uncivilized. When the citizens see the emperor, they all clasp their hands in greeting.”
Meng Yonghua finally felt at ease, and said with a smile, “As expected of an outsider.”
“In future, the Dark North Nation will be able to bask in the blessings of our Empire, and will definitely develop gradually, and would not be so primitive and backward,” Tang Lei said with a smile.
He knew that Tang Yan was on good terms with Ling Han, and Ling Han was indeed worth befriending. That was why he had repeatedly exonerated Ling Han.
“Hahaha!” Meng Yonghua laughed loudly, appearing to be very happy.
On the spectators’ seats, some were shouting in excitement, but there were also some that were incredibly dejected. That was because they had all betted on how much time Wang Yafei would win in the underground gambling house. They had not thought that not only would Wang Yafei not win, he would lose so terribly instead. It could be said that they had been horribly screwed over.
There was also Ge Shuang, whose expression was dark, almost dripping ink.
At first, he had hoped that Wang Yafei would kill Ling Han and avenge him, but who would have thought that Wang Yafei would actually be so weak?
And he called himself the top elite of the Foundation Building Tier? This was absolute
nonsense.
And in the Imperial Family seats, Meng Yangcheng’s expression was also incredibly ugly. He naturally recognized Ling Han. In the past, in order to compete for the Buddhist Race’s opportunity, he had come to blows with Ling Han. In the end, he had almost been killed. If it was not for the fact that he had a few subordinates who were desperately blocking for him, he would have long since died—he naturally would not admit that it was he who had actually sucked dry the mystical power of the few servants.
This brat was really outrageously bold. He actually dared to come here?
He wanted nothing more than to immediately step forward and kill Ling Han, but what kind of place was this? Furthermore, Meng Yonghua had personally bestowed an official rank on Ling Han. If he dared to make a move, then losing the right to inherit would be a small matter. If it was serious, he might even be executed.
-With Meng Yonghua’s temperamental nature, this was not impossible.
Thus, he could only endure for now. However, since he had discovered Ling Han, he would definitely not let Ling Han have a good time in the following days, right until… Ling Han died. The battle had ended, but Meng Yonghua’s birthday banquet naturally didn’t. Afterward, there was still the final battle of the Cauldron Forging Tier elites, as well as the activities of the diplomatic missions of the various nations. In short, the commotion would continue until midnight tonight, at least.
Ling Han was fine. He returned to the resting area.
After a long time, Tang Yan finally came to look for him.
“You, so your battle prowess is actually so high!” He punched Ling Han’s chest, “You hadn’t told me earlier, making me worry for so long.”
Ling Han laughed loudly, “I have always told you not to worry, yet you insist on worrying for no reason.”
“All right, all right, all right. It’s my fault, all right?” Tang Yan said with a smile. He was also in a very good mood. Ling Han had gotten the first place, and had even been bestowed an official position by the Emperor. Now, would the Clan Mansion still dare to control Ling Han? “You’re leaving tomorrow to assume your post immediately. Do you want me to send you off?” he asked.
Ling Han shook his head, and said, “As the Little Marquis, you aren’t a very idle person, so I won’t trouble you with everything.”
“All right, I’ll find you for some tea later.” Tang Yan nodded. In any case, Ling Han had already left the Political Hostage Manor and become a free man, so it would be easy for them to get together.
After the birthday banquet ended, Ling Han returned to the Political Hostage Manor. He had just entered, when he saw a great many people offering their congratulations.
As it turned out, the fact that he had been appointed as an official by Meng Yonghua had already spread throughout the entire Imperial Capital. Even this Political Hostage Manor was no exception.
This was awesome. Just look, everyone were still hostages, but Ling Han had already been personally bestowed the title of an official by the emperor of the Majestic Empire. The gap between them was as wide as the gap between heaven and earth.
They definitely had to befriend this kind of person. To say nothing else, it would be good for them to have a few more days of freedom.
On the other hand, Liu Xunyu and the others all bore ugly expressions, wanting nothing more than to swallow Ling Han whole and skin him alive.
How could they have imagined that even the Clan Mansion could not stop the rise of Ling
Han?
Now, they could only sit by and watch as Ling Han became stronger and stronger. An alchemy prodigy that could concoct the Foundation Dissolution Pill, Ling Han, had boundless future
prospects.
Ling Han swept an eye over these people, not bothering to stop at all. How could he possibly treat these few people as his opponents?
He stayed for a night, and on the morning of the second day, cultivated for a while. Then, he left proudly.
“Lord Ling!” The guards at the entrance naturally would not stop him. Instead, they greeted him obsequiously.
This young man was really too incredible. How many days had it been? And he had already walked out of the Political Hostage Manor. Who knows, he may be able to become a Marquis or Minister in future.
Ling Han smiled faintly, and strode away.
Behind him, Liu Xunyu, Zhao Xiao, Han Bing and Tan Zhengjie were all staring at him, their expressions icy cold.
“What should we do? Could it be that we are just going to sit by and watch him grow?” Tan Zheng Jie asked, unwilling to give up.
“If you have the ability, you can assassinate him tonight and drag him down with you.” Han Bing made a sarcastic remark, “Haven’t you always said that you want to sacrifice your life for Sister Liu? This is an extremely good opportunity, right?”
Tan Zhengjie’s expression instantly crumbled. Firstly, he did not want to die at all, and secondly, even if he did not care about his own safety, there was absolutely no way that he would be a match for Ling Han. He would only be committing suicide.
“All of you, speak less.” Liu Xunyu said in displeasure, “I will definitely think of a way. I will definitely not allow him to leave just like that!”
Zhao Xiao and Han Bing looked at each other, and both shook their heads secretly. By now, it was clear that Ling Han was out of control. Could it be that you want to go to the Heaven
Military Manor and solicit him again?
…
The Heaven Military Manor was the department that oversaw the security of the Imperial Capital, and the Imperial Capital was very, very big. Thus, the Heaven Military Manor had also established a considerable number of subbranches, each managing a small area.
Ling Han was bestowed the title of Crimson Captain. This was only a minor eighth-rank official position, and was not even qualified to be a leader at a branch of the Heaven Military
Manor.
He was assigned to the Great Peace Division. The leader of the division was a seventh-rank captain named Yan Lesheng. After meeting Ling Han, he appointed Ling Han as a captain of the division. However, because no captain had left the division previously, Ling Han’s current role as captain was actually an empty post. He didn’t have a single subordinate.
“A murder happened in Long Li, I’ll hand it over to you.” Yan Lesheng tossed over a scroll.
On the first day of work, there was already a mission.
Ling Han didn’t refuse. He accepted the scroll and started to flip through it.
“A murder has taken place in the Imperial Capital, and the nature of this crime is extremely
vile. I will give you ten days’ time. If you are unable to catch the culprit, you can resign on your own!” Yan Lesheng set a deadline for Ling Han.
