I Have A Cultivation World

Chapter 1594: Chapter 799: Turning the Hand into Clouds (10k)_6

Chen Mobai’s nonchalant remark instantly moved Hua Zijing.

“Superior’s great favor, Zijing will remember it for a lifetime.”

“I’m merely keeping my promises.”

Chen Mobai replied indifferently.

…

In the Xianwu Hall’s finance department meeting room.

Bo Xiangqian glanced at the time and then at everyone present, gently wiping sweat from his forehead.

“The time is almost up, the meeting can begin.”

At this moment, Nangong Xuanyu said coldly.

“Our Department of Law Enforcement still has another representative who hasn’t arrived. It must be due to flight delays; let’s wait for a bit longer.”

Following Gongsun Jielu’s signal, Law Enforcement Minister Wen Lianshan spoke under Nangong Xuanyu’s cold gaze.

“Since they’re late, they shouldn’t participate. Don’t they realize the level of this meeting? Making all of us wait for him—is that appropriate…”

Nangong Xuanyu’s voice trailed off midway when suddenly a silver light flickered above the meeting room. Chen Mobai’s figure appeared before everyone out of thin air.

“Apologies, traffic was bad, I’m late.”

“No, no, the timing is perfect. Superior, please take a seat.”

Chen Mobai arrived precisely at the last second, and Bo Xiangqian immediately guided him to his seat.

He was part of the Hall of Orthodox Law faction, so he sat alongside Nangong Xuanyu, Gongsun Jielu, and Wen Lianshan. However, due to past grievances, the two Nascent Soul superiors sat at the furthest ends.

“Minister Wen.”

Formalities dictated Chen Mobai greet him politely upon sitting, despite being nominally subordinate to Wen Lianshan.

“No, no, Superior, just call me Xiao Wen or Lianshan.”

Wen Lianshan dared not protest, promptly standing up and waiting for Chen Mobai to sit before carefully seating himself.

“I don’t understand. The list had already been finalized; what justification does Kaiyuan Hall have to raise objections?”

As soon as Chen Mobai sat down, Bo Xiangqian announced the start of the meeting. Nangong Xuanyu, already aware of the day’s agenda, immediately amplified his aggression.

“Kaiyuan Hall shoulders the responsibility of supervising power usage within the Three Great Halls. Upon discovering unethical behavior among certain individuals on the list, we are obliged to propose a reassessment and redistribution.”

After exchanging glances with Chen Mobai, Ye Yune voiced her reasoning.

“Who are they?”

Nangong Xuanyu demanded directly, but Ye Yune refrained from answering and passed the baton to Chen Mobai.

“Ding Guoyuan and Dong Yukun.”

Wang Xin Fu immediately spoke up, producing documentation prepared earlier that outlined Ding Guoyuan and Dong Yukun’s reception of illicit benefits during their tenure.

“This is slander! I request a thorough investigation of the two.”

Both Ding Guoyuan and Dong Yukun were Heaven-Repairing Lineage members, making Nangong Xuanyu unwilling to back down.

“Then let’s settle it after the meeting with a joint law enforcement investigation by the Three Great Halls. For now, remove the two from the list.”

Chen Mobai finally intervened.

“On what grounds?”

Nangong Xuanyu’s icy gaze locked onto Chen Mobai, who responded with a faint smile.

“If there are opposing views, then let’s resolve this through voting.”

Bo Xiangqian looked troubled, but rules were rules. He turned to Lan Haitian, who remained silent.

“Then let’s vote.”

Without explicit instructions from Ying Guanghua passed through Lan Haitian, Bo Xiangqian couldn’t contravene regulations and sighed before announcing the vote.

The results quickly emerged.

With the combined forces of three factions and others eager to curry favor with Chen Mobai, the future Divinity Transformation cultivator, votes easily outnumbered those of the Heaven-Repairing Lineage.

“Then Ding Guoyuan and Dong Yukun will be removed from the list.”

Bo Xiangqian could only announce the decision.

“But they’ve already been notified…”

Luan Xuehou spoke reluctantly.

“The twenty-seventh article of the Xianwu Hall regulations clearly stipulates that any departmental meeting content cannot be disclosed to relevant parties unless stamped and publicly announced. I suggest suspending and investigating whoever violated the rule.”

Chen Mobai responded coldly. Luan Xuehou opened his mouth but stayed silent, glancing at Nangong Xuanyu, who was uncharacteristically quiet.

In the Immortal Gate, rules had to be adhered to.

Although regulations weren’t laws, notifying candidates beforehand was an unwritten rule. Many department ministers discreetly informed their allies so they could prepare to accommodate the Golden Liquid Jade Pill and cultivate favor.

After all, these individuals had high Core Formation probabilities.

Nevertheless, such matters couldn’t be openly discussed.

“Let’s review the previously filtered list and identify suitable replacements for the two vacant spots.”

Chen Mobai spoke up again, prompting Lan Haitian to display Hua Zijing’s profile on the large screen.

“I object!”

Nangong Xuanyu instantly protested.

“Then let’s vote.”

Chen Mobai dismissed further argument.

Under the gaze of two Nascent Soul superiors, Bo Xiangqian glanced at the screen and declared Hua Zijing’s inclusion via majority vote.

The next replacement was naturally Meng Huang.

“Opposed.”

Despite knowing defeat was inevitable, Nangong Xuanyu firmly opposed, maintaining his adversarial stance against Chen Mobai.

“Vote again.”

Chen Mobai smiled and signaled Bo Xiangqian, who nodded.

“Vote passed. Meng Huang also enters the list as a replacement.”

Nangong Xuanyu watched, his cold gaze meeting Chen Mobai’s mocking eyes. Scoffing, he rose, about to leave.

“One more thing. I agree with Minister Nangong’s earlier suggestion. Bai Er Shi Fu’s members haven’t received a Golden Liquid Jade Pill in a long time. While Dong Yukun exhibited personal misconduct, it doesn’t represent all Bai Er Shi Fu officials. I propose giving them one pill…”

Chen Mobai’s casual remark halted Nangong Xuanyu’s movement.

“Which candidate does Superior propose to remove then?”

Bo Xiangqian cautiously inquired.

“I’ve always admired Ling Daoshi. His talent is exceptional—second only to me among our contemporaries. Honestly, I believe he could achieve Core Formation without the pill. Perhaps we could redirect his share.”

Chen Mobai’s suggestion incited uncontrollable fury from Nangong Xuanyu.

“Don’t push your luck!”
