The most important thing is, in the Scorching Sun Department, when it comes to methods, philosophy, personality, and all that, there really aren't many people who can match Cai Qidong.
The Guanzhong County Chief, after getting chewed out by Cai Qidong last time, has been pretty wary lately. He mulled it over carefully, and finally figured something out.
Thinking about the fact Cai Qidong didn't get sent for a ride in the deluxe cremator, that means that, at least for now, the Nanwu County Scorching Sun Department is still headed by Cai Qidong.
And then, consider this: even Mount Zhongnan, one of the Three Mountains and Five Ridges, just got stripped of its independent teaching qualifications.
So, having the first non-human chief in the Scorching Sun Department isn't something impossible either.
Who knows if Cai Heizi has turned into a ghost now?
Plus, through his own channels, he heard that Cai Heizi's corpse was taken away by Fuyu Mountain.
