Uttarakuru, Tianxiongzhou.
Tianxiong Prefecture is located in the extreme north of the Northern Continent, bordering Tianyuan. It is the northernmost prefecture in the Northern Continent. Further north is the boundless North Sea.
The headquarters of the newly formed Northern Juluzhou Demon-Slaying Commander's Department is located in the Xiaowu Camp in Tianxiongzhou. At this time, nearly 600,000 demon generals and soldiers have gathered here, waiting for Fang Jian, Yan Jingyao and the other three to reorganize them.
In fact, Fang Jian and the other four rushed here without stopping after attending the enthronement ceremony in the Qingxiao Treasure Realm. They did not even attend the fairy banquet held by Di Jun in the Great Wilderness Imperial Palace in the Qingxiao Treasure Realm.
In the big tent of the Demon-Exterminating Captain's headquarters in Northern Juluzhou, Fang Jian sat in front of the main desk, and was checking the records of 600,000 demon generals and soldiers with Yan Jingyao and three others.
At this moment, a demon general of Taiyi Xuanxian Dao entered and bowed to Fang Jian and Yan Jingyao, saying, "Master Hongqing, Captain, there are four demon immortals dressed in immortal robes outside the station who wish to see you."
"Oh?" Yan Jingyao raised his eyebrows. "Demon immortals dressed in immortal official robes? Have you ever asked their names?"
The demon general replied, "Your Excellency, I have already asked, and the leader's name is Yan He."
"Yan He?" Fang Jian looked up from the vast sea of books on his desk and said immediately, "Bring them in."
The demon general immediately bowed and said, "I obey your command."
After the demon general left, Yan Jingyao asked Fang Jian, "Does Master Hongqing know this person?"
Fang Jian nodded and smiled, "There is some connection."
Not long after, led by the demon general, Yan He and his four companions quickly entered the big tent.
When he looked up in the room, his eyes lit up. He saw that Yan He and the other three were all wearing robes of immortal officials, no longer the Taoist robes they used to wear.
In particular, Yan He was wearing the robes of a third-grade martial arts immortal official, while the three people behind Yan He were each wearing the robes of a fourth-grade martial arts immortal official.
However, when Yan He and the other three saw Fang Jian, they still bowed and said, "Greetings to Master Hongqing."
Fang Jian laughed heartily, stood up and walked away from the desk. He came to Yan He and helped him up. After taking a closer look, he nodded and said, "Not bad, not bad. Since we last met, you've become a higher official than me."
Yan He really made a great achievement this time. Seventy percent of the credit for discovering the Tianhan Golden Dragon Burial Ground goes to the four of them. The Heavenly Court will never be vain in this regard.
Therefore, Yan He was directly conferred the title of the third-rank immortal official in the Wulin by the Taixuandu Province, while Jian Yun, Fu Lingzi, and Xun Shuo, who were together with Yan He, were conferred the title of the fourth-rank immortal official in the Wulin.
In addition, now that the demon race has officially been incorporated into the sequence of the Heavenly Court, Yan Hesi's starting point can be said to be much higher than that of other demon fairies.
"I dare not. It is all thanks to the support of Master Hongqing and the grace of Heaven. How dare we surpass him?" Yan He said hurriedly, bowing his head.
Fang Jian smiled faintly, then looked at Yan He and asked, "Why are you four here?"
Yan He and the other three immediately produced their own imperial edicts, handed them to Fang Jian, and said, "We are here by order of the Taixuan Province to serve in the Demon-Subduing Commandery of Northern Juluzhou."
"Oh?" Fang Jian was slightly surprised, and even Yan Jingyao and the other three came over.
After Fang Jian took the imperial edict from Yan He and the other three and read it, he handed it to Yan Jingyao.
Yan Jingyao took the imperial edict and took a look. It turned out that the official positions of Yan He and the other three were exactly the positions of the Demon-Slaying Commander Department of Northern Juluzhou.
Yan He was granted the title of the third-rank Du Yuhou of the Northern Continent's Demon-Slaying Commandery, while Jian Yun, Fu Lingzi, and Xun Shuo who were with him were granted the title of the fourth-rank Du Dianjian of the Northern Continent's Demon-Slaying Commandery.
After reading the imperial edict, Yan Jingyao smiled at Yan He and the other three and said, "Great! You four have arrived just in time. We're really short of manpower right now."
Seeing Yan He's puzzled look, Fang Jian immediately introduced them, "This is Fellow Daoist Yan Jingyao, the Captain of the Northern Continent's Demon-Slaying Captain's Department. These three are Fellow Daoists Yan Jingfa, Yan Jingci, and Yan Jingdao, the Historians of the Northern Continent's Demon-Slaying Captain's Department. They are all your immediate superiors."
Upon hearing this, Yan He and the other three's expressions changed, and they immediately bowed and saluted, saying, "We greet the Captain and the three Historians."
"No need to be so polite." Yan Jingyao immediately used his magical power to help Yan He and the other three stand up, and then said directly: "Quick, come and count the personnel records together."
With the addition of Yan He and the other four, the speed of counting the personnel books increased a lot.
Finally, one day later, the records of the 600,000 demon generals and soldiers were all counted, and then they were reorganized.
There are differences among the heavenly generals in heaven. Ordinary heavenly generals are called 'heavenly generals', while those one level higher than ordinary heavenly generals are called 'titled heavenly generals', that is, heavenly generals who have been bestowed with titles by heaven.
For example, Wang Lingguan, Youyi Lingguan, the thirty-six Tiangang Heavenly Generals, the seventy-two Disha Heavenly Generals, etc., all belong to the ranks of heavenly generals, but they are heavenly generals with titles, which is naturally one level higher than ordinary heavenly generals.
However, the title of Heavenly General is not based on one's cultivation level, but on one's achievements. The higher the achievements, the better the title and the higher the rank.
Therefore, these demon generals who had just been reorganized into heavenly generals had no achievements and were naturally just ordinary heavenly generals.
Thus, the reorganized Northern Continent Demon-Slaying Cavalry had a total of eighty-three heavenly generals, all of whom were Golden Immortals.
Moreover, under the auspices of Fang Jian, all the True Immortals, Mysterious Immortals, and Taiyi Mysterious Immortals were incorporated into the Heavenly Soldiers and became the Heavenly Soldiers' Thousand Yu Hou. In other words, in the Northern Juluzhou Demon-Slaying Commandery, only the Golden Immortals were qualified to be Heavenly Generals, and the rest were all incorporated into the Heavenly Soldiers' Thousand Yu Hou.
The ranks of heavenly soldiers, he was just a "Qian Yu Hou" among the heavenly soldiers.
Fang Jian naturally had his own ideas for this reorganization, which was that it couldn't be too complicated. If the Golden Immortals, Taiyi Xuanxian, Xuanxian, and Zhenxian were appointed one level at a time, it would not only be time-consuming, but would also cause redundancy in official positions. A decree would have to pass through four or five levels before it could be transmitted to the lowest level, which was completely unnecessary for the heavenly soldiers.
