Two thousand years ago, a strand of sword light flashed across the nine heavens, tearing through the sky.
The world recovered, and martial arts began to revive.
Two thousand years later...
The moon is bright and the stars are few.
In the Mangshan Mountains, a mountain wind gradually began to howl.
The training camp was still brightly lit. The assessment had long since ended, and those who failed had all been sent back.
The base was less noisy.
At this moment, Lin Xuan was adjusting his breathing in his room.
Clang...
Suddenly, the door was pushed open.
It was Du Yunsheng, followed by two soldiers dressed in jet-black armor, their eyes sharp as swords and their faces cold as knives.
The fierce, menacing aura emanating from them revealed their identities.
"Lin Xuan, these two are the ones who came from Shanhaiguan to pick you up."
As soon as Du Yunsheng entered the room, he immediately said to Lin Xuan, "You are about to set off with them to Shanhaiguan."
"Heh...you guys are really impatient!"
Lin Xuan sneered.
The verdict was announced this afternoon, and people came tonight. That's incredibly efficient.
Du Yunsheng blushed, unsure how to respond.
He then gave a wry smile and said, "We had no choice in this matter. The waters of the Mangshan training camp are deeper than you imagine."
"By the way, is there anything else you need to tell me?"
“I can go with them, but… I need you to promise that you will not lay a hand on my parents or relatives.”
Lin Xuan said coldly, "Also, don't let them know that I went to Shanhaiguan..."
"Okay, I'll have your Fengle City Martial Arts Guild take good care of your parents. After all, we won't cancel your reward this time."
The Fengle City Martial Arts Guild will also benefit greatly.
Du Yunsheng nodded and said in a deep voice, "As for your parents, I will tell them that you have been selected by our Mangshan training camp."
Further training is needed, and I won't be able to return in the short term..."
Thank you!
Lin Xuan gave Du Yunsheng a deep look and then bowed respectfully with clasped hands.
In fact.
He was still grateful to Du Yunsheng.
After all, this matter had little to do with Du Yunsheng, and from beginning to end, Du Yunsheng had always wanted to help him.
He saw this clearly.
However, Du Yunsheng was of low status and had no influence in the Mangshan training camp.
"It's time to set off."
At this moment, one of the two soldiers from Shanhaiguan standing at the gate urged in a cold voice, "It's getting late..."
Lin Xuan remained silent, slung his backpack over his shoulder, picked up his battle sword, and left the room.
A few minutes later.
Under the guidance of the two soldiers from Shanhaiguan and Du Yunsheng, Lin Xuan arrived at the edge of the Mangshan training camp base.
On a small square.
The square was empty, with only one aircraft parked there, which looked like an alien flying saucer from a previous life.
The aircraft is not large; the interior space is at most twenty square meters.
However, the interior is extremely luxurious.
This surprised Lin Xuan. Was Shanhaiguan really that luxurious?
This is the kind of treatment they receive when they come to pick up a prisoner being exiled.
"Kid, sit tight, we're about to set off." A soldier from Shanhaiguan said to Lin Xuan, then slammed the door of the aircraft shut.
The next moment.
Buzz...
Lin Xuan felt the aircraft shudder and then it lifted off the ground, soaring straight into the sky.
The speed was so fast that Lin Xuan even felt a momentary sense of weightlessness.
By the time he had fully adjusted, the aircraft had already soared above the clouds and headed straight for the distant starry sky.
Shanhaiguan.
The place where mountains meet the sea.
The mountain is the Kunlun Mountains, and the sea is the vast starry sky.
Therefore, Shanhaiguan is not on the ground, but in the sky.
Lin Xuan's father, Lin Qingshan, had served in Shanhaiguan and had told Lin Xuan some stories about Shanhaiguan.
However, since Lin Qingshan was just a lowly soldier, he didn't actually know much about Shanhaiguan.
Lin Xuan had even fewer.
Besides knowing that Shanhaiguan is located high in the sky and fraught with danger at every turn.
As for the rest, I'm basically not sure.
Lin Xuan didn't bother to ask the two soldiers from Shanhaiguan what they meant, and instead sat in his seat pretending to doze off.
Anyway, everything will be clear once we get to Shanhaiguan.
Of course, the most important point is that, judging from their expressions, even if he asked, they probably wouldn't tell.
Since that's the case, why bother making a fool of yourself?
at the same time!
Inside the Mangshan training camp.
Just as the aircraft soared into the sky, several pairs of eyes turned straight up to the heavens.
Inside the courtyard where Deputy Commander Meng Yuyang resides.
Meng Yuyang stood in the pavilion in the courtyard, looking up as the aircraft disappeared into the night, and then sneered cruelly: "Damn bastard, here's a big gift for you."
I hope you can handle it…
Little did he know that in an inconspicuous corner of his courtyard, a blurry figure flashed by, as if disappearing into the darkness.
...
The aircraft soared high above the dark night sky, its speed reaching its limit, streaking across the sky like a bolt of lightning.
Like a star in the dark night.
Sudden.
Lin Xuan, who had been dozing with his eyes closed, suddenly trembled, a sense of unease sweeping over him.
Almost instinctively, he opened his eyes.
Boom... Bang...
Just then, the aircraft suddenly shuddered, as if it had been hit violently.
The entire aircraft was actually blown away.
Holy crap!
Lin Xuan's expression changed drastically, and he was thrown from his seat. Fortunately, he reacted quickly and grabbed a pipe, instinctively asking, "What's going on?"
