Ouyang was chatting enthusiastically, only picking out a few of his own glorious battle achievements and success stories, and Chen Yan was naturally playing his role in supporting, responding with applause and praise.
As the atmosphere heated up, Ouyang had already opened several bottles of good wine, drinking while starting to brag.
He even talked about his promotion.
"Brother, you have no idea, your older brother just completed an important task in Japan last month! That battle, that guy... I single-handedly destroyed a Secret Realm! A Magical Treasure Artifact Spirit capable of creating a Secret Realm space!
It’s because of this achievement that the higher-ups promoted me beyond schedule..."
Yeah, you destroyed it!
Chen Yan inwardly shook his head.
The sight of you being beaten to the point of coughing up blood by the Artifact Spirit in the Secret Realm trial, as if I hadn’t witnessed it?
After filling their stomachs, Ouyang took out a folder, placed it on the table, and pushed it in front of Chen Yan. New ɴᴏᴠᴇʟ ᴄhapters are published on novelFirｅ.net
"According to the rules, you are an external member, so you temporarily can’t take on tasks that are too difficult. The information on this is issued from above and consists of tasks suitable for your current level that can be completed independently.
Hmm, you should have a rough idea of the rules; there’s no rush in time, completing three in a quarter would count as satisfactory.
Even if there’s difficulty and you can’t complete them... just tell me privately, and I can help you adjust.
Taking ten thousand steps back, even if you can’t complete any, it’s not a big deal.
Brother, let’s not talk about anything outside, given your background, being a Loose Cultivator from this Domain Realm, with no roots here, even if your achievements are great, you won’t climb up in the future. I think at most, you can be a deputy leader at best.
Don’t be too competitive; anyway, not meeting the achievement standards generally won’t easily lead to a cut. You just arrived, take your time to adapt a little.
Let me give you peace of mind; the first year, I won’t put any task pressure on you! If you can complete them, great; if not, I’ll cover you!"
A drinking session lasting till nearly midnight finally came to an end.
During this time, Ouyang was in good spirits and even went to the kitchen to cook two more dishes. And as for the mackerel dumplings at the shop, the two almost finished the stock.
After the end, Ouyang contentedly sent Chen Yan out.
Before leaving, he patted Chen Yan’s shoulder: "Submit the completed tasks here to me, and I’ll apply for assessments for you. You’ll also collect the quarterly elixirs from me in the future!"
Chen Yan’s heart stirred: "I don’t need Body Refining Pill and Refining God Pill, can they be exchanged for other cultivation resources?"
Ouyang looked at Chen Yan, frowned, and said: "The document says you’re a cultivator on the Primordial Spirit path; the Refining God Pill should be suitable for your current realm... You don’t want it?"
"I don’t need it for now." Chen Yan thought for a moment and said: "Can it be exchanged for something else?"
Ouyang pondered for a moment and said: "Above doesn’t allow swaps, but among our colleagues from the same unit, we often exchange things privately, if you don’t need this elixir, I can help you find someone to exchange for something else."
"Alright! I’ll tell you what I need when the time comes." Chen Yan shyly smiled: "I just entered the field, I don’t know anyone in the same path yet, so relying on you to help with exchanges..."
"No problem!" Ouyang was very pleased with Chen Yan’s attitude as "the first subordinate in his life" tonight, and laughed heartily: "I’ll cover you!"
Chen Yan also drank quite a bit of wine, but after getting home, he transported Primordial Qi to disperse the drunkenness, regaining his clarity. After taking a bath and changing clothes to get rid of the alcohol smell, Chen Yan sat in the study and began to browse through the folder that Ouyang handed over tonight.
The people on the list are either Loose Cultivators or Spirit Monsters from the Domain Realm who don’t follow the rules in this world.
Or it’s the cultivation forces from the Domain Realm scattering into this world, causing some negative impacts and disrupting the rules and functioning of this world.
Just as Ouyang said, given Chen Yan’s level, the list in this document consists of relatively low-level targets.
However, when he saw the first name on it...
This very familiar name left Chen Yan stunned on the spot.
