Top Grade Pure Beauty CEO-Chapter 726 - The Inspector of Xuan Country
Chapter 726: Chapter 726: The Inspector of Xuan Country Chapter 726: Chapter 726: The Inspector of Xuan Country “Buzz~”
The phone rang again, and it was still that call.
Li Xiaoyao held the phone to his ear with his left hand, his tone impatient, “Beauty, what is it now? Are you attracted by my voice and want to chat with me some more?”
“Li Xiaoyao!” The beauty seemed to be infuriated by Li Xiaoyao’s teasing tone, really a guy with no sense of fun.
“Your nationality is under verification, and I also want to notify you that Department One will subject you to a one-month review period. If during this period, you engage in any conduct that violates the regulations, you would be unfit for this position.”
“What position?” Li Xiaoyao became genuinely interested; he had no idea what position the higher-ups were planning to give him.
“Xuan Country’s Inspector.”
“Inspector? Sounds rather grand.” Li Xiaoyao smiled and asked, “So beauty, can you now tell me in detail what kind of authority this Inspector has?”
...
Although the girl really didn’t want to say another word to Li Xiaoyao, as the commissioner assigned to notify him, she had to speak.
“The Inspector of Xuan Country, answering to the Supreme Commander’s orders, second only to one, but above tens of thousands, cannot kill commoners at will, cannot interfere with the lives of commoners, and besides that, possesses all other rights.”
Li Xiaoyao blinked his eyes, the power of this position seemed to be really big.
“How many Inspectors are there in Xuan Country now?” Li Xiaoyao was very curious about this, and more curious about what the conditions were to become an Inspector.
“Five.”
“Only five?”
“Hmph!” The girl scoffed disdainfully, “Do you think just anyone can become an Inspector of Xuan Country?”
Li Xiaoyao asked, “What is the Cultivation Level of an Inspector in Xuan Country?”
The girl was silent for a few seconds, then said, “With your current permissions, no comment.”
How tsundere she was.
Li Xiaoyao tried a different approach, “Am I the one with the lowest Cultivation Level among the Inspectors? You can at least answer that, right?”
After a few seconds of silence, the girl said, “Yes.”
“During the review period, what exactly will I be reviewed on?”
“No comment.”
Li Xiaoyao curled his lip, saying, “I didn’t even want to know; did you think I was keen on being your so-called Inspector? I can tell you very clearly that I’m not at all interested in the position of Inspector, so, whether or not I pass the review is of little concern to me. Lastly, don’t call me if there’s nothing important, I quite dislike talking to your kind of people.”
Click!
The call was disconnected, and the girl on the other end of the phone clenched the handset, her pale palm showing distinct veins, and a delicate, pretty face unmasked with anger.
“Xiao Rou, what happened?” someone beside her asked cheerfully.
Xiao Rou didn’t speak; she slammed down the phone, stood up, and walked toward the interior office.

“Knock knock knock!”
“Come in.”
Xiao Rou pushed the door open, and an old man with grizzled temples, dressed in a military uniform, was seated at the desk frowning at some documents. Seeing Xiao Rou step in, he took off his glasses and asked with a smile, “With that face like a sworn enemy, what’s the matter? Who made you angry again?”
Xiao Rou walked over, huffing, “Military Governor, Li Xiaoyao is such a jerk!”
“Li Xiaoyao?” The old man was momentarily stunned, then asked, “What about him?”
Xiao Rou recounted the entire conversation she just had with Li Xiaoyao, and after finishing, added, “He’s really detestable!”
The old man shook his head with a smile, “What’s there to be angry about?”
“He disrespects Department One.” Xiao Rou complained indignantly.
“You,” the old man laughed helplessly, “take things too seriously.”
“It’s not that I’m too serious, it’s that he’s too arrogant, to think that he dared to claim that he scorns the position of Inspector. Who does he think he is? Hmph, I think the rumors outside are quite fair, he is arrogant and has no limits.”
“Xiao Rou, you still don’t understand these Cultivators,” the old man put his old glasses down on the table and said, “Do you know the Cultivation Level of the Cultivators who have been shortlisted as candidates for Inspector?”
“Of course, from the Nascent Soul Realm onwards, right?” Xiao Rou pouted, she was quite clear about this common knowledge.
“Then do you know Li Xiaoyao’s Cultivation Level?”
“He…” Xiao Rou paused for a second, then said, “Isn’t he at the Spirit Condensation Realm?”
The old man nodded, his expression more serious than ever, “For all previous Inspectors, the lowest Cultivation Level was the Nascent Soul Realm, and not once has there been an Inspector selected below the Nascent Soul Realm, even for exceptional nominations.”
“Do you understand what I’m saying?”
Xiao Rou nodded, then shook her head, biting her lip, not quite understanding.
“Are you saying, Military Governor, that he’s a Cultivator with great potential? That’s why he was exceptionally included in the review this time?”
“His potential is beyond doubt; I have reviewed all of his experiences. This year alone, he has fought with over thirty Cultivators, with more than twenty battles where his opponents had a higher Cultivation Level than him. The most disparate battle in terms of power was with a whole realm between them. The difference between Spirit Condensation Realm and Nascent Soul Realm; you should understand that.
“The higher the realm, the bigger the gap, and the extent of this gap, you should understand.”
Xiao Rou fell silent, only now recalling that the carefree scoundrel who teased her on the phone, was a cultivation genius that comes once in a hundred, no, a thousand years.
“Even if he’s very powerful and has a strong talent for cultivation, he is just entering the review stage. Whether he can actually be nominated as an Inspector is still uncertain. Hmph, to say that he scorns such a post, really arrogant.”
The old man shook his head, saying, “It’s not the review range, but the nomination.”
“What!” Xiao Rou was shocked, “Nominated? He’s already been nominated?”
“Xiao Rou, understand this, every Cultivator who makes it to the shortlist possesses an exceptional strength. Admittedly, in the face of Xuan Country, unless their Cultivation Level breaks through the human limit, they surely aren’t a match for a nation. But even so, with their current Cultivation Level and standing in society, the position of Inspector is actually of little importance to them.”
“But…” Xiao Rou argued defiantly, “except for Li Xiaoyao, the other Cultivators were all excited to be included in the shortlist for Inspector.”
“Because they need the support of Xuan Country,” the old man pointed out, “Inspector, second only to one, above tens of thousands, even among powerful Cultivators, how many can resist the temptation of such a high and esteemed position?”
“Li Xiaoyao, hehe, that lad must have been tempted too; I think it’s the tone of your conversation with him that was a bit off.”
“I did not, I spoke to him completely in accordance with the rules and regulations, you can listen to the recording if you don’t believe me, Military Governor.” Xiao Rou rushed to clarify, her cheeks flushing.
