Chapter 483: Promoted Again (Please Subscribe)

The Divine Decree brought by the Divine Palace Priest was unexpectedly an order to promote Lin Rui and bestow a nobility on him.

Lin Rui's current official position is still the Commander of the Spy Detection Bureau, but his 'official rank'—or 'military rank'—was raised by two levels, promoting him to a Standard Fourth Rank General of Unhindered Passage. In addition, Divine above also conferred upon him the divine office of Great Chief Priest of the Divine Palace.

The position of Great Chief Priest in the Divine Palace is equivalent to a Fourth Rank official in the court, but this identity is much more prestigious. Although it lacks real power, it holds more symbolic significance, and people within the Imperial City Department wish for such an office, but cannot obtain it.

It appears that both the Emperor and the three Great Divine Envoys are also conferred with divine offices in the Divine Palace.
