The talisman that Fang Jian gave to Xuan Ying was to let Hong Yuan transform into Xuan Ying and arrange a Taoist temple in Duanjie Mountain.

Anyway, there are still many Taoist palaces in Duanjie Mountain. For the time being, they are only given to a few people, and there are still a lot of vacancies.

After Xuanying put away the talisman, Fang Jian looked at her and asked, "What are your plans for the future?"

Xuan Ying was startled when she heard this, and then she said blankly: "I want to take care of my mother..."

"Once your mother and the others become demon cultivators, they won't need your care anymore." Fang Jian said slowly.

Xuanying paused when she heard this, then after a moment of silence, she said, "Then I... then I'll go back to Qingming Tower to make tea..."

"Don't you want to do something else?" Fang Jian asked while looking at the jade book in his hand.

When Xuanying heard Fang Jian's question, she fell silent and remained silent for a long time.

Fang Jian raised his head and looked at Xuanying, whose face was full of confusion and hesitation. He couldn't help but smile and said, "What's wrong? Just say it."

Xuan Ying's breathing became a little rapid, and she twisted her hands tightly together. She said hesitantly, "I...I'm afraid that Master Hong Qing will laugh at me."

Fang Jian laughed heartily and said, "Everyone has ambitions. This is common. How could I be laughing at it?"

Xuan Ying looked at Fang Jian's encouraging gaze, took a deep breath, and then said, "I... I also want to be an immortal official... I want to be like you, Master Hongqing, punishing evil and promoting good, and bringing peace to all living beings."

"Wow!" Fang Jian said with a smile, "This isn't easy. To become an immortal official, you must go through the strict selection process of Taixuan Province. I can't help you with this."

Xuan Ying saw that Fang Jian had no intention of laughing at her, so she mustered up the courage to say, "Please give me some advice, Master Hongqing."

Fang Jian thought for a moment and said, "Merit and achievements are both indispensable. So-called merit refers to saving all living beings and bestowing grace. As for achievements, they refer to educating all living beings, upholding righteousness and expelling evil."

At this point, Fang Jian said to Xuan Ying, "However, to protect your biological mother, you endured humiliation and hard work, and your filial piety is commendable. This is your strength. I believe that Taixuandu Province already has a record of your 'ultimate filial piety'. Therefore, what you lack is the merit and virtue for all beings in heaven and earth."

"Ah?" Xuan Ying was startled when she heard Fang Jian's words. "Taixuan Province... already has a record of me?"

Fang Jian smiled and said, "It's not just you. All beings in the three realms are recorded in Taixuan Province. Every good deed they've done, every contribution they've made to sentient beings, and every measure of merit they've accumulated will be recorded in Taixuan Province. When selecting immortal officials in the future, they'll be chosen from these records."

Upon hearing this, Xuan Ying immediately asked curiously, "Then... then Master Hong Qing's achievements must be great, right?"

"..." Fang Jian was stunned when he heard that, and then looked at Xuan Ying with a sigh.

After a long while, Fang Jian said slowly, "I had no achievements at first. It was the Jade Emperor who personally chose me."

Xuanying listened to these words, but in her heart she admired Fang Jian even more. "Master Hongqing is so humble. To be chosen by the Jade Emperor must be a great achievement, but he said he has no achievements. It's really admirable. He is a role model for our generation!"

Thinking of this, Xuanying bowed to Fang Jian, then said seriously, "I will remember the teachings of Master Hongqing in my heart. Regardless of whether I can become an immortal official in the future, I will definitely follow Master Hongqing's example, strictly encourage myself, uphold righteousness and reject evil, promote good and reject evil, and help all living beings!"

...

The next day, Hua Rou and Hua Yi, two female fairies from the Taiwei Yuqing Palace, used a large formation to fold up the entire Baishi Divine Mansion's imperial garden. Then, after taking Xuan Ying to pay their last respects to Fang Jian, they left the Baishi Realm under the guidance of the heavenly light.

Just one hour after Hua Rou and others left, the passage from Heaven to the lower world of Bai Shijie was opened again.

First, the messenger from Taixuandu Province entered the Baishi Realm and informed Fang Jian and others that the new Baishi Divine Lord and the Baishi Realm Pacifying General were about to arrive.

Fang Jian immediately ordered Wang Ji to summon all the immortal officials of the Baishi Realm to the Divine Palace to welcome them. Everyone waited for half an hour, and suddenly a gong sounded in the passage to the lower realm, followed by a bright immortal light, followed by immortal music filling the sky, immortal flowers flying, and then a grand ceremonial procession appeared from the passage to the lower realm.

At the front was a large chariot pulled by thirty-six white celestial horses, with thirty-six celestial soldiers on the left and right holding the gods' flags and staffs, thirty-six strong men serving as sedan chair bearers, ten celestial soldiers each holding a five-sided umbrella, twelve celestial soldiers each holding a pair of clappers, and another twelve celestial soldiers each holding a red silk embroidered fan.

Behind it was also a large chariot, but it was pulled by thirty-six black celestial horses, and thirty-six celestial soldiers on the left and right held the general's flag. The rest of the ceremonial objects were basically the same, but there was no red silk embroidered fan of the fan-handling department. Instead, there were three pairs of bone flowers and three pairs of golden axes, symbolizing military generals, held by twelve celestial soldiers.

Fang Jian and the more than 500 immortal officials behind him knew at a glance that this was the ceremonial carriage of the new God and the General of Pacification.
