The Shanhe ship led the floating landmass across the sky for hundreds of millions of miles, heading straight for Hangu Pass.
At this moment, a group of uninvited guests arrived at Hangu Pass.
Whoosh whoosh...
A spaceship pierced the sky, flying swiftly from the other side of Hangu Pass, in the direction connecting the territory of the Great Xia Dynasty, and hovered in mid-air outside Hangu Pass.
This immediately attracted the attention of the soldiers guarding the city gates of Hangu Pass.
"This is Hangu Pass. Who comes here?"
The general guarding this gate of Hangu Pass was a burly man with thick eyebrows and big eyes, dressed in crimson armor.
The moment the spaceship arrived, he was already on the city wall, his eyes flashing with a sharp and fierce light as he warily watched the spaceship and shouted at it.
Clang!
The spaceship hatch opened, and a thousand-strong army rushed out. Each of them exuded an aura of unfathomable power and a palpable killing intent that sent chills down one's spine.
After exiting the spaceship, they stood respectfully on either side of the hatch.
"So powerful! Each one of them is at the Purple Mansion Realm, and there are even some at the Refinement Void Realm and the Life and Death Realm."
"Who exactly is this person? Even among the guards who came with him, there are experts at the Refinement of Void Realm and Life and Death Realm. Could it be a Celestial General?"
"It's probably more than just a town general; it could very well be an ancient general, or even a top-tier one. Do you see that spaceship? It's the most advanced spaceship in our Great Xia Dynasty; even ordinary town generals aren't qualified to own one."
...
On the city wall, all the soldiers were shocked and discussed among themselves.
Even the general's pupils shrank to a single point, his expression solemn, and he vaguely sensed unease.
The sudden arrival of a high-ranking official, suspected to be an ancient general, at Hangu Pass is itself very strange.
Hangu Pass is a strategically important place, but under normal circumstances, no one is willing to come here unless something major happens.
An ancient general came before, saying he was there to support Hangu Pass, but he didn't stay long and returned with his army. How long has it been? Another ancient general has arrived, and most importantly, there was no prior notice. This is very unusual.
While everyone on the Hangu Pass was still in shock, a middle-aged man dressed in brocade robes and jade robes appeared. He looked rather thin, with sunken cheeks, but his eyes were like those of a hawk, making people afraid to look directly at him.
"Damn it... Yun Canggu is coming! Open the city gates at once..."
Just then, a shout rang out like a thunderclap.
He was one of only three Life and Death Realm experts among the thousand-strong group. He wore dark armor, his aura was as cold as a knife, and he roared into Hangu Pass, shaking the void.
On the walls of Hangu Pass, everyone's expression changed.
Ancient general!
As expected, it was an ancient general who arrived.
When the gods do not appear, the ancients are revered.
These are genuine high-ranking officials of the Great Xia Dynasty, members of the War God Palace, any one of whom is enough to make the Great Xia Dynasty tremble.
"General, what do we do now?" On the city wall, a soldier said in a deep voice to the general guarding the city gate, "An ancient general has come. Should we open the city gate or not?"
The crimson-clad general's face was also extremely solemn, as gloomy as water.
He doesn't know what to do now.
After a moment, he gritted his teeth and said towards the outside of the city, "So it is General Gu who has come. However, may I ask what brings you to Hangu Pass? Do you have any orders or travel documents?"
Hangu Pass is a strategic location, and people cannot enter or leave at will, especially after Lin Xuan arrived, who emphasized this point even more.
So even though he knew that the person coming was a garrison commander, the general did not dare to open the city gate rashly and let the person in. He did not know what would happen to Hangu Pass if something went wrong, but he knew he would definitely lose his head.
Lin Xuan was very kind to his soldiers, but he was ruthless when it came to killing.
"How dare you... Who do you think you are, to dare to block us? Open the city gates immediately, or your heads will be in danger."
That powerful expert at the Life and Death Realm roared angrily.
As soon as he said this, the crimson-clad general's face darkened even more, and anger burned within him as well.
Damn it, you're so arrogant. You're just someone's bodyguard. I may not be as strong as you, but I'm still the general guarding the gates of Hangu Pass. How dare you call me a piece of trash? This is simply outrageous!
However, he also knew that he was just a nobody in front of an ancient general.
Although he was unhappy, he gritted his teeth and remained silent.
As for opening the city gates, that's absolutely impossible.
These people clearly came to Hangu Pass without permission, which is against the rules. If he opened the city gates to let them in, he would definitely die a terrible death.
"Without the orders of General Lin Xuanzhen, the commander of Hangu Pass, or without the transfer order or travel permit from the War God Palace, no one is allowed to enter the city."
Please, everyone, leave!
The crimson-clad general gritted his teeth and said in a deep voice.
His words shocked countless people, leaving them dumbfounded, even his own soldiers were stunned.
He wondered to himself how many drugs his general had taken to become so ferocious, daring to block an ancient general. Was he out of his mind?
"General, you...you're going to offend that person outside to death by doing this."
His adjutant said softly.
"Hmph, so be it! An ancient general may be powerful, crushing me is as easy as crushing an ant, but I belong to Hangu Pass and do not submit to his jurisdiction. At worst, I will not leave Hangu Pass in the future."
But if I let anyone in today without permission, not only will I die a horrible death, but you lot will all be thrown into the dungeon…”
