Chapter 25 The Powerhouse Ranking?
Ling Xiaozi is a demon hunter in Qintian Prison, and he is also awarded the title of "Five Features Upright" by the imperial court.
The facial features are exactly the officials of the sixth rank of the Tang Dynasty. There are five official officials in spring, summer, mid-autumn, autumn and winter. Their main responsibilities are to control the calendar, determine the four seasons, and monitor and ensure the smooth weather of the land of China.
Therefore, unless it is a year of famine, in most cases, Ling Xiaozi's task is very easy.
However, since Huiji returned to Chang'an, the ensuing battles and invasions forced the Qintian Prison to operate with all its strength to prevent those young people from harming the nobles of Chang'an.
Under such circumstances, even Ling Xiaozi, who was considered a semi-officer, could only take the initiative to take over some relatively arduous tasks.
Fortunately, Ling Xiaozi didn't hate this feeling of being busy.
After all, although Ling Xiaozi is undisciplined, he is not an outsider like Li Gang, Lian Hua, or even Zi Yang who "brings in the arts".
From an orphan to an object of intensive training...
In addition to Ling Xiaozi's amazing talent, he relies more on his work style that makes almost no mistakes.
No matter what kind of task is given to Ling Xiaozi, he can guarantee that it will be completed without any mistakes.
Ling Xiaozi's steady behavior may not bring any additional gains to the mission.
But in the eyes of those in power, people like Ling Xiaozi who can complete various tasks perfectly are the ones worthy of being focused on training.
After all, those in power have everything. They no longer need any additional gains or surprises. They only need "tool men" who can stably complete the various tasks assigned by them.
Ling Xiaozi actually knew this very well.
But Ling Xiaozi doesn't care about this. As long as he can continue to explore the myriad avenues in this world, what's wrong with working for those in power?
So after establishing a good relationship with a certain dignitary of the dynasty, Ling Xiaozi naturally got a relatively important but quite easy job - guarding the Qin Tian Document.
Different from the Luofu Taoist Disk refined by Zhao Guizhen, although the Qintian Script is also a national artifact, its importance is far from comparable to that of the Luofu Taoism Disk.
The Qintian Book is the supreme secret treasure of the Qintian Prison, and it is also the foundation for the existence of the entire group of demon hunters.
Outsiders only know that there is a most wanted list called "Qin Tian Shu" inside Qin Tian Prison.
Every member on this wanted list is a giant monster who once single-handedly caused monstrous disasters, causing some kind of irreparable disaster to the land of China.
The one who ranks first so far is the Wheel-turning King who is entrenched in Fengduluo Mountain, forcibly opening up the two realms of Yin and Yang, and turning the human world into a ghost realm.
It is said that the "Crazy Monk" who was more than 20 years ago was also among the top three ruthless characters all year round.
However, as Huiji emerged from the mountain and became the Imperial Master of the Tang Dynasty, "Qin Tianshu" naturally banned this ranking.
However, this does not affect the fairness and accuracy of Qin Tianshu. On the contrary, it verifies the reliability of the ranking of "Qin Tianshu" from the side.
Therefore, in the minds of a considerable number of practitioners, "Qin Tianshu" is regarded as a ranking list of the strong.
Regardless of the reason for being on the list, all beings that can be registered in the "Qin Tian Document" are eligible to compete for the top twenty in the world.
But what Ling Xiaozi knows better is that the so-called "most wanted list" is not Qin Tianshu's true ability at all.
Or to be more precise, including those big demons and trolls who have done evil things on the list is just an insignificant ability of Qin Tianshu.

"You want to borrow the Qin Tian Book?"
Frowning and staring at Mei Ji, this is not the first time Ling Xiaozi has seen her, but it is definitely the one with the worst attitude.
"Do you know the importance of the Qin Tian Jian to the Qin Tian Jian and the entire Tang Dynasty?"
Looking away from Mei Ji, Ling Xiaozi looked at the monk in blue robes behind him and emphasized again.
"I don't know what you want to do, but please get out of here now."
"As for borrowing Qin Tian's documents, I'll pretend I've never heard of it."
Ling Xiaozi felt that he had given Mei Ji enough face. If the other party had not had Hui Ji as the national master in the background, he would have called the nearby demon hunter to catch them.
Even so, Ling Xiaozi didn't want to talk too much nonsense with them, so he immediately wanted to drive them away.
"Ling Xiaozi, I came here with a secret order."
Taking out the seal that symbolized the Master Huiji, Mei Ji changed her previous flirtatious and joking attitude and shouted in a serious tone that Pei Wende had never seen before.
"So I'm informing you now, not requesting."
It has to be said that Mei Ji's righteous words made Ling Xiaozi fall into silence, and even the demon hunters nearby silently put down their swords.
Qintianjian is an institution that the previous national counselor Zhao Guizhen worked hard to rebuild.
After the new emperor took office, although some officials holding important positions were thoroughly investigated, and the privilege of "beheading first and reporting later" was also banned, the overall structure of the Qintian Prison still maintained the structure of the Wuzong period.
This directly led to the fact that although Huiji was a national master, she no longer had the power of Qin Tianjian like Zhao Guizhen.
Even the request to call the "Qin Tian Document" has to pass the review at all levels.
The only good thing is that the newly appointed Tang Xuanzong trusted Huiji very much and completely allowed him to make all reasonable requests.
"I need to check with the supervisor, please wait a moment."
After a short silence, Ling Xiaozi finally spoke again.
Then, without waiting for Meiji's reply, Ling Xiaozi took out a bronze mirror blessed with the "Round Light Technique" from his arms and connected it to the communication mirror in the secret main hall of the Qintian Prison.
The communication mirror is the central base of the "round light technique" and can connect almost all bronze mirrors blessed with the "round light technique".
Compared with the "Yuan Guang Shu" during the Zhao Guizhen period a few years ago, the "Yuan Guang Shu" bronze mirror with the communication mirror as a transfer station undoubtedly has stronger communication capabilities.
As long as Jian Zheng is still within Chang'an, Ling Xiaozi can contact him as quickly as possible.
[Is this a magic version of a ‘mobile phone’? 】
Pei Wende, who witnessed all this, muttered secretly, and couldn't help but feel a little curious in his heart.
Because no matter how you look at it, this magic version of "mobile phone" cannot be a product of productivity in the current era. Instead, it is more like a black technology that transcends the limitations of the era.
What is black technology?
It is a cross-generation product that does not understand the principle, cannot be popularized, and has too much instability.
