Kang Yuanqiao had something he didn't mention to Lu Ye, which is that although the Justice Department is a powerful institution, and rarely provokes trouble when they're outside, the nature of their work often makes them unpopular.
Most cultivators are used to living freely without constraints in their actions.
But on the provincial guard's side, guard discipline is strict, and it's inevitable that some people will inadvertently break the rules, requiring the Justice Department to step in.
Handling these matters easily offends people, causing them to hold grudges against you.
This is the main reason why the Justice Department is often understaffed. In Bingzhou, the number of cultivators is vast, and even though the department has strict recruitment requirements, with a minimum cultivation of the True Lake Realm, it's still challenging to get enough personnel.
