Chronicles of Celestial Origins

Hao Jianren was sitting cross-legged on a futon in the majestic cave in the Tianniu Mountains. A man pushed the door open and bowed and saluted: "Uncle Master, a disciple from Tang Ning's direct team has come to ask for an audience. He is waiting outside the house."

"He came quite quickly, let him in!"

"Yes." The man responded, left the cave, and led him into the living room.

After waiting for a long time, Hao Jianren finally arrived. Tang Ning quickly stood up and saluted: "Disciple pays homage to Master."

"Sit down!" Hao Jianren walked to the main seat and sat down.

"Thank you, Master Uncle." Tang Ning still sat down and said, "The former was at Master Uncle Bai Jintang's wedding banquet in Yuanxian County. I saw several Master Uncles present at the banquet. I didn't have time to greet them at that time. I hope Master Uncle won't be surprised."

"We all saw your performance that day. Yes, it can be regarded as a face for the headquarters."

"Disciple just won by luck." Tang Ning flipped his hands, took out a storage bag, and handed it to him with both hands: "When I was wandering around the city, I thought that my uncle was working hard on the affairs of the headquarters, so I bought some ambergris liquid wine. I don't know how to match it. It’s not to your liking. The disciple was trapped by something and left the team for a long time, which violated the rules of the department. I hope Uncle Haihan won’t blame him.”

Longdan Fragrance Liquor is a fifth-level high-grade spiritual wine. There have been rumors in the alliance that Hao Jianren is uniquely fond of the taste of this spiritual wine, so Tang Ning spent two thousand high-grade spiritual stones to buy ten jars.

If he wants to resume his duties, he cannot avoid the alliance. Appointment is the top priority for the alliance's senior management. Therefore, he must ease the relationship with several major alliance executives.

For this reason, he bought a lot of spiritual wine and prepared to give it to the senior leaders of the alliance.

As for the recommended quota for the team, there is no need to worry. Xu Mengyuan has already made a promise and will nominate him when the time comes.

Hao Jianren glanced at him, took the storage bag in his hand, and put it aside: "There is no need to mention the past. I hope you can learn from it in the future."

"This disciple promises to my uncle that he will never do this again."

"That's good. Every time you learn something, you will gain wisdom. After this lesson, it may not be a bad thing for you."

"Yes, I don't want to disturb my uncle Qing Xiu, so I'll take my leave now."

Tangning saw that everything she needed to say had been said, so she stood up and said goodbye.

His visit this time was just to ease the vaguely antagonistic relationship between the two. For this reason, it was enough. If he went further, it would be a bit overreaching. Besides, it was still far away from the election period. Even if he raised the matter, , and it is impossible to get Hao Jianren’s clear support attitude.

He had achieved his goal this time, and Hao Jianren was willing to accept the gift, which at least showed that he was not so hostile to him in his heart.

There was actually no grudge between the two. If anything, it was at most that he had offended his "little brother", that is, he had unintentionally offended He Lian when he killed Lin Quan in Jingyuan Pavilion.

But that time, Hao Jianren actually let him go in the end. Without his intervention, He Lian would not have signed the case file, and the incident could not be dismissed so easily.

The fundamental reason why Hao Jianren was cold to him was that he was promoted by Fang Dasheng, and the two were not in the same camp.

After leaving his cave, Tang Ning came to Sima Nian's ancestral mansion and handed a talisman inside. After a while, a man appeared from inside and welcomed him into the room.

After meeting Sima Nianzu, he expressed his intention to come and presented the prepared spiritual wine. After chatting for a few words, he stood up and left.

"Senior Brother Tang." Just as he was leaving his cave, a man with a square face and broad ears came in. The two met head-on, and the man bowed his head.

This person was none other than Sima Teng, the nephew of Sima Nianzu. He once competed with him for the position of director of Jingyuan Pavilion and was a competitor. However, things have changed and things at that time have naturally dispersed with the wind.

What's more, the two of them don't have much hatred, so they don't treat each other as if they don't see each other.

"Junior Brother Sima, it's been a long time." Tang Ning bowed her head in return.

"Is Senior Brother Tang here to visit my uncle?"

"Yes, I am serving in the Alliance Army now. It is rare for me to come back to my headquarters this time, so I came here to pay a visit to Master Sima."

The two exchanged pleasantries and then passed each other. Tang Ning went to visit deputy captain Xie Minghua and several team stewards one after another.

Sima Teng came to Sima Nian's ancestor's room and saluted: "Uncle, everything has been arranged according to your wishes."

"Yes." Sima Nianzu nodded.

"I just saw Tangning leaving here. I don't know why he came here."

"The legion will be unified to replenish the manpower lost in this war. It seems that he heard the news and wanted to take this opportunity to be promoted and come to test my attitude."

"Then did you promise him?"

"We haven't talked about that step yet. He just sent some spiritual wine."

Sima Teng smiled slightly: "Now that there is no protection from Fang Dasheng, it may not be so easy for him to be as comfortable as he thought in the alliance. Since he can lower his face and come to you, it seems that he is at the end of his rope and there is no other way. I think Master Hao and He must have been to Deputy Captain Xie, or he had to come to you because he didn't get the expected results."

Sima Nianzu looked at his proud expression and shook his head slightly: "Look at what you are like now. He is at the end of his rope. What do you have to be proud of?"

"Thirty years in Hedong and thirty years in Hexi. When he was under the protection of Fang Dasheng, how could he ever come to your house to pay a visit? Even at Vice Captain Li. Today I am at my wits end and have to beg you shamelessly. It can be said that it is a good reincarnation. "

"I thought you had grown a lot over the years, but now your true colors have been revealed. It shows that your true nature is hard to change. Just because you were defeated by him at will, you want him to be in despair for the rest of his life and not be able to turn around. You are such a petty person. When can we change it?”

"It's not because of this incident, it's just that this person was too arrogant before. He thought that Fang Dasheng was under the protection of the alliance and was arrogant. Looking at his behavior today, he is inevitably happy."

"Do you really think he came to me because he was at the end of his rope and had no other options?"

Seeing his expression, Sima Teng was slightly shocked: "What does uncle mean?"

"You always draw conclusions based on wishful thinking, and show off self-righteously before you get the exact results. This alone makes him much better than you."

"What does my uncle mean by this? My nephew doesn't understand."

"Let me tell you! This time at the wedding banquet at Bai Jintang in Yuanxian County, he cleanly defeated several other competitors and easily won the first place in the competition. He was very visible in the competition. Not only that, several senior members of the column were present at the time. He also praised him very much, and even the leader of the column, Bai Yuanting, was very fond of him. Do you still think that he came to me at the end of his rope? "

"He won the competition?" Sima Teng frowned slightly and muttered to himself.

Sima Nianzu said: "Before leaving, Hao Jianren, Xie Minghua and I went to bid farewell to Bai Yuanting. He also specifically mentioned Tang Ning, saying that this person is quite capable and can be reused."

"Hao Jianren even promised to promote him on the spot. This person has the support of Bai Yuanting. However, he was still unhurried and did not mention any personnel appointments this time."

"Look at you again. You jump to arbitrary conclusions before you understand anything, and your tail is about to reach the sky. Just in terms of your determination, you are far behind him."

"This time he won the first place in the competition. Bai Yuanting also gave him five cultivation objects to attack the gods. With the strength he showed that day, if nothing unexpected happened, he could successfully practice to the great perfection of Nascent Soul and attack the gods. The probability of success should be high.”

…

After visiting the stewards one after another and working for most of the day, Tang Ning returned to the cave. Today's trip can be said to have gone very smoothly. Hao Jianren, Sima Nianzu, and Xie Minghua all received him. Although he did not receive explicit permission from the senior management of the alliance, several people accepted him. Drinking the spiritual wine he sent was at least an expression of goodwill towards him.

Spiritual wine worth 20 million is not a valuable thing for monks of Hao Jianren's level. Their willingness to accept it is not because they are greedy for the benefits of this spiritual stone, but a manifestation of their attitude.

He didn't know that the reason why Hao Jianren and others were like this was actually due to Bai Yuanting's words.

After resting in the mansion for a night, he left the Tianniu Mountains the next day and took a merchant ship back to Qianyuan City.

…

The sun was setting in the west, and the red clouds were like fire. In Qianyuan City, above the vast lake, a ray of light quickly passed by. While Tang Ning was walking, his eyes suddenly fell into darkness.

He was startled, but before he could react, the sky became clear again, but in the next moment, it fell into darkness again, and then became clear again, and so on again and again, with light and darkness constantly changing.
