Chu Li asked, ”Iswell to the Imperial Residence?”
Xiao Qi kept her eyes fixated on the chessboard as she replied, ”Pretty well”
”That's good,” Chu Li said ”If there's anything not to your liking, you can ask the scribes to es”
Xiao Qi continued to stare at the chessboard, refusing to lift her face to look at him
Xiao shi+ puckered her lips into a s, ”The Imperial Residence will have to remain wary of any assassination atteht I heard froh Official of the Holy Church of Light There is a ht and countless h Officials associated with theh
Chu Li fixed his eyes on Xiao Qi without saying anything else as he waited for her to speak
After staring at the chessboard for a while, Xiao Qi finally lifted her gaze and threw hih Officials?”
Chu Li explained, ”The Holy Church of Light has been trying to win over h Officials, ill carry out orders froenerous rewards These High Officials won't be subordinate to the Holy Church of Light Rather, it's just a business transaction between both parties”
Xiao Qi raised her eyebrows slightly ”What an iy!”
Chu Li nodded ”The last ti alias, I encountered a patrol who has askedup that offer”
Xiao shi+ suppressed her urge to speak and re the show
”You're planning on becoh Official?” Xiao Qi frowned
Chu Li replied, ”Once a person beco out any tasks in their hoo to other countries to coets Every tireat It can cos, treasure swords, and knives Whatever you can think of, they have As long as you serve the Holy Church of Light wholeheartedly, you won't have to worry about your livelihood… There are different rankings a, the riskier the tasks, and the greater the reward I heard that you htened Master'sat a High Duke's Public House or an I way of doing things!”

Xiao Qi h Duke's Public House can never achieve this”
If the High Duke's Public House were to gather talented individuals on such a large scale, there was no way to tell how ht would not be necessary, because the Public House would collapse without a battle Since the other sects were also worried about this possibility, they made loyalty their top priority and did not dare to iht
Chu Li slowly nodded ”What a pity”
While it did not sound difficult, it was actually very hard to accorasp of the situation, and that hat he wished to learn
Xiao shi+ could not help asking, ”So you're going to becoh Official?”
”That was my initial plan, but there's no need for me to do so now,” Chu Li replied and shook his head ”We found a better way”
”I believe so too,” Xiao shi+ said
A High Official would certainly be given the erous, dirty and tiresoned to any of their disciples It was truly not worth the effort to pursue this option since he did not need the rewards froather much information anyway Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please click for visiting
