My daily cultivation progress is calculated.

Chapter 63 An extremely arrogant scion of a powerful family, a massacre of his entire clan!

Early in the morning, Shen Yan arrived at the prison.

Qi Xuan's eyes were bloodshot, as if he hadn't slept all night.

Qi Xuan bent over his desk and wrote with his head down.

He saw Shen Yan, looked up at him, and then continued working.

Shen Yan thought to himself in astonishment, "Could Qi Xuan have been working all night long?"

Although it's a good thing that his subordinates work hard, Shen Yan doesn't want Qi Xuan to die suddenly in the prison due to overwork.

He asked, "Qi Xuan, were you here writing official documents all night?"

"Your Excellency, I'm almost done, it's alright."

Shen Yan frowned and said, "Go back and rest. There's no rush for the rest. We can come back tomorrow."

Qi Xuan wanted to say a few more words, but Shen Yan cut him off.

"From now on, you are only allowed to work five hours a day, with four days off per month. If you work even a little longer than that, I will deduct your monthly pay."

"Ah?! My lord, five hours a day, four days off a month. Even the Taoist priests of Qingfeng Temple don't have this kind of schedule?"

Qi Xuan used to be busy until midnight when he worked at the business, let alone have a day off.

If you need to take leave due to an emergency, you will be penalized.

Only at the end of the year can I truly rest for a while.

Shen Yan felt that this treatment was far inferior to the nine-to-five job and weekends off he had in his previous life.

In addition, his monthly salary was less than that of the prison guards under his command, and he even felt that the guards were somewhat heartless.

In Qi Xuan's heart, Shen Yan was practically a saint.

Not only do they only get ten taels of silver a month, but they also work for a short time. What kind of life did they live before?

Qi Xuan was sent home to rest, while Shen Yan drank alone in his cell.

Shen Yan picked up the official document that Qi Xuan had already approved and reviewed.

"Qi Xuan is indeed quite skilled! His handwriting and word choice are far superior to mine."

Just as he was engrossed in watching, Chen Xiaoshuan ran in.

"Lord Shen, something terrible has happened! An old man has arrived in cell number A! You must go and see him!"

"uncle?!"

Those who can still act like big shots in the prison are no ordinary people; they all have illustrious backgrounds and dare not be negligent in the slightest.

Just like Grand Tutor Wang Yuan a while ago, let alone before he was tortured, even if a single hair was lost, the jailer would be in trouble.

Previously, when Wang Yuan was still in the imperial prison, officials from the Ministry of Justice came every day, even more frequently than when he went to Chunfeng Tower.

Shen Yan followed Chen Xiaoshuan to the outside of the prison, where he saw three men dressed as servants guarding a young man.

Several constables followed behind them, seemingly as escorts, but they were kept at a distance.

This was the first time Shen Yan had ever seen such a scene. Anyone who didn't know better would have thought that some high-ranking official was inspecting the prison.

The constables from the Ministry of Justice handed the documents and case files to Shen Yan.

He opened it and immediately understood why he was receiving this treatment.

He thought to himself, "His surname is Yan, no wonder he's so arrogant."

Shen Yan called Sun Fugui to his side and asked in a low voice:

"Who is this Yan Biao? Could he be Yan Fan's grandson?"

Sun Fugui whispered in his ear:

"Lord Shen, this Yan Biao is the Prime Minister's grand-nephew."

"Is his grandfather Yan Fan's biological brother?"

"My Lord Shen, you dare not address me by my name directly, or you will bring trouble upon yourself. The two of you are brothers."

Shen Yan understood; it turned out they weren't even direct relatives. However, their actions were far too arrogant and ruthless.

Even when he arrived at the gates of the imperial prison, he still acted as if he were the most powerful person in the world.

Upon seeing a beautiful woman on the street, he ordered his men to secretly follow her and capture her in the middle of the night, bringing her back to his residence.

Knowing she could not escape her fate, the woman took advantage of the servants' distraction and jumped into the well, where she drowned.

Frustrated and enraged, Yan Biao stormed into the woman's house and murdered her parents and younger brother.

Shen Yan thought to himself:

"These scions of powerful families truly don't value human life. To wipe out an entire family just like that is truly appalling."

He sighed inwardly. Although he had long known that the world was rotten to the core, he still found it hard to remain calm when he actually encountered such a thing.

Just as he was lost in thought, he suddenly heard an angry shout.

"You lowly jailer, how dare you touch my young master with your filthy hands?"

Just then, a loud bang was heard.

A figure crashed heavily at Shen Yan's feet.

It's Chen Xiaoshuan.

Shen Yan looked up, his face grim. His underling had been beaten right under his nose.

How could he not say anything?

Shen Yan appeared in front of the servant who had made the move in a flash.

He punched him in the chest, sending him flying several meters away.

The servant collapsed to the ground, his face ashen, the blood still warm from the corner of his mouth.

The other two servants quickly stood in front of Yan Biao, watching Shen Yan warily.

The jailers were unaware of his strength, but how could the servants who worked with him not know?

The person who was just beaten was an eighth-rank martial artist, with a body tempering skill that was even comparable to a seventh-rank martial artist.

However, Shen Yan easily inflicted serious injuries on him.

Shen Yan returned to his previous spot, squatted down, and asked Chen Xiaoshuan.

Why did they attack just now?

Chen Xiaoshuan coughed twice and clutched his chest:

"I was trying to escort the prisoner into the cell, but before I could even touch him, I was knocked away."

Shen Yan hadn't expected that Yan Biao would be so ruthless, and his subordinates would be no less so.

It was perfectly normal for jailers to escort prisoners into the dungeon.

Even Grand Tutor Wang Yuan was sent in by Shen Yan and Chen Xiaoshuan.

Yan Biao clapped his hands and said, "Good, good, good! Kid, I admire you. What's your name? Come work for me, and I'll definitely treat you well."

The three servants' expressions immediately changed, and they looked at Shen Yan with some jealousy.

Shen Yan frowned and said, "No need, I'm not interested in being someone's dog."

Yan Biao's face turned ashen after being humiliated by Shen Yan.

"Kid, no one can refuse me. You'll regret this."

Shen Yan ignored him.

"Hey, are you going to put this prisoner in the dungeon or not? If not, take him away quickly."

Seeing that he was being ignored, Yan Biao's expression became even uglier, and he glared fiercely at Shen Yan.

The constables behind him immediately responded, "Of course! We'll hand over the duties right now, right now!"

They didn't have Shen Yan's confidence to treat Yan Biao like that.

Several constables approached Yan Biao and, after much persuasion, finally managed to coax him inside.

Shen Yan noticed that two servants were still following behind him.

His face darkened: "This is a heavily guarded prison. What are you doing here? Get out!"

They seemed not to hear Shen Yan's words and continued walking straight inside.

Shen Yan attacked suddenly, and the two had no chance to react before being severely injured by him.

"You were supposed to be punished for breaking into the prison, but we'll let you off easy this time."

When Yan Biao saw Shen Yan make a move for the second time, he no longer dared to be presumptuous.

If we say that Shen Yan injured the person by surprise, then...

But this time, he defeated two opponents in one move. With such strength, he was actually a prison guard in the Heavenly Prison.

Yan Biao found it unbelievable. Now that he was under someone else's roof, he dared not make any more threats.

It's clear that Shen Yan isn't afraid of his background.

If you get injured by Shen Yan, it will be for nothing.

Although Yan Biao acted domineeringly and ruthlessly, he also understood that some people in Bianjing were not to be trifled with.

He's not such a brainless person.

Another old man has been brought into the prison, and Shen Yan is not in a good mood.

He told Chen Xiaoshuan to go back and recover from his injuries.

Soon someone approached Shen Yan, but the person's background surprised him greatly.
