When Gu Feng saw that Lin Xuan had actually refused, he looked at the blood jade that Lin Xuan had forcibly handed to him and couldn't help but smile bitterly.
"General, look, this is a token of General Duan's goodwill. If you don't accept it, I won't be able to explain myself when I get back!"
Gu Feng said cautiously.
"Then don't go back. My Shanhe Army is short of people, especially someone as talented as you."
Lin Xuan said with a half-smile, not buying into Gu Feng's sob story at all. He had already experienced what kind of person Gu Feng was back in the Star Sea.
How could I fall for his trick?
Sure enough, as soon as Lin Xuan said those words, Gu Feng's expression became quite varied.
"Hehe, General, you jest."
Gu Feng gave an awkward smile, but inwardly he couldn't help but curse.
He even cursed Lin Xuan's ancestors for eighteen generations. Lin Xuan wasn't trying to keep him; he was clearly trying to put him on the hot seat!
Although Lin Xuan was a town general, and the youngest town general in the entire Great Xia Dynasty.
It's not shameful to follow him.
The problem is, while Lin Xuan is strong, he's also quite adept at causing trouble. If you really follow him, not to mention the future, you'll be surrounded by enemies right now.
Giving up a perfectly good divine general position to follow him? He must be out of his mind.
Gu Feng sneered inwardly, then calmly put away the blood jade, cupped his hands towards Lin Xuan, and said, "Since General Duan really doesn't want it, then I can only take it back and return it to General Duan."
If there's nothing else, then I'll take my leave.
With the mission unfinished, Gu Feng had no desire to stay any longer.
Moreover, Lin Xuan has already offended many people, and now he has rejected Duan Nantian's overtures. In Gu Feng's view, this is a very foolish move.
He didn't want to get too close to Lin Xuan, lest he be caught in the crossfire later.
"Um!"
Lin Xuan saw through Gu Feng's little scheme at a glance, chuckled coldly, and then, without saying a word, waved to Tie Dachui beside him and said, "Dachui, see the guest out for me."
"Yes, sir..."
Iron Hammer immediately responded loudly, then glared at Gu Feng and said, "General Gu Feng, please!"
There was a hint of coldness in his words.
He is now also at the Life and Death Realm, and his strength is no weaker than Gu Feng's, so naturally he doesn't need to worry about Gu Feng, this divine general.
After Tie Dachui led Gu Feng out of the reception room, Lin Xuan's expression changed immediately, his eyes flashed with a sharp light, and his face gradually turned cold.
Duan Nantian sent Gu Feng over to ease tensions.
If it was his personal behavior, that would be one thing, but if it was their collective will, then they were clearly taking advantage of him.
Being schemed against once wasn't enough; they wanted to scheme against each other a few more times.
They really thought he was a fool.
"Strength, everything comes down to strength. If I now possessed combat power surpassing that of a celestial being, comparable to that of a god, how dare these people scheme against me like this?"
Lin Xuan snorted coldly, his eyes gleaming with a sharp light.
He secretly vowed that going to Hangu Pass was actually a great opportunity to get away from the corrupting influence of Shanhaiguan.
He must seize this opportunity to improve his own strength while guarding Hangu Pass.
At the same time, the strength of the Shanhe Army also needs to be improved to a higher level.
Ideally, we should take over the entire Hangu Pass and never return.
"Formation is my greatest asset."
Lin Xuan muttered to himself, and as he thought about his current mastery of formations, his smile grew even wider.
His mastery of array formation techniques, reaching the highest level of Heaven, far surpasses that of most array formation masters.
Hangu Pass is the true front line against evil spirits. With the help of formations, it will be absolutely impregnable in the future.
This is also the biggest source of his confidence in going to Hangu Pass to guard it.
Time flies.
Three days later.
A massive warship, as large as an island, burst out of the Shanhe Army's garrison and shot straight toward the outside of Shanhaiguan.
Inside the warship, 100,000 soldiers from the mountains and rivers stood ready, fully armored.
That sharp and murderous aura, like the gleaming edge of a sword, pierced through the sky and soared straight to the heavens.
"General, according to the information, it will take us about ten days to reach Hangu Pass."
Inside the warship, in a huge conference room.
Su Changfeng said to Lin Xuan, "During this time, we will have to cross most of the Outer Heavens, and I'm afraid there will be unforeseen circumstances..."
"Then let them come."
Lin Xuan's eyes flashed with murderous intent, and he chuckled coldly, "Perfect, kill him as a sacrifice to the flag."
He knew that the change Su Changfeng mentioned meant that someone would target their warship.
It could be a demon, but it could also be someone from another human kingdom, or even someone from within their Great Xia.
Although Xuanbing Gu had already given orders that Lin Xuan was not allowed to go to Hangu Pass and that no mistakes should be made.
But there will always be some people who will disregard Xuanbing Gu Jiang's orders and take action.
Lin Xuan was not afraid at all.
Whoever comes here and dares to obstruct him is an enemy of Lin Xuan and the entire Shanhe Army.
Since they are enemies, there's nothing more to say; just kill them.
"Pass down the order to divide the soldiers into two shifts, one to rest and the other to stand guard." Lin Xuan's eyes flashed like lightning as he said in a deep voice, "Activate the warship's detection capabilities to the maximum. Report any disturbance immediately."
If any fool dares to approach...
"Kill without mercy!"
Extraordinary times call for extraordinary measures.
Now that the Shanhe Army has crossed the Shanhaiguan Pass, this is a golden opportunity for many people who hate him to the core, and they will naturally not let him go.
These people would stop at nothing to kill him.
