Time flies, and three days have passed in the blink of an eye.
For the past three days, the Shanhe Army has been stationed outside the capital. Except for soldiers who went home to fetch their parents, none of the soldiers have left their posts. During these three days, thanks to the presence of warships, all the soldiers have been able to bring their families and friends over.
No one stopped them, not because they didn't want to, but because they dared not.
The Shanhe Army is too powerful, and its commander, Lin Xuan, is even more powerful. Even the high-ranking deity Xuan Qing can't do anything about him. At this time, if anyone dares to stop the Shanhe Army soldiers from taking their relatives away, they will be slapping Lin Xuan in the face and will definitely die a terrible death.
Nobody's a fool, and at this critical juncture, no one would do something so stupid.
So these three days were actually peaceful and calm.
At this moment, inside the Shanhe Army camp.
"My lord, all the soldiers have returned." Chu Lingkong entered Lin Xuan's tent, bowed to Lin Xuan, and said, "We can depart now. However... someone has been requesting an audience outside the camp several times, and they've come again today..."
"Um!"
Lin Xuan nodded and said in a deep voice, "Ignore him. Send the order to have the soldiers prepare. We will depart in one hour and return to Tianwaitian."
He naturally knew that someone was requesting an audience outside the military camp, and he also knew that the person who came was Xu Changshan, but he did not meet him because he could guess Xu Changshan's purpose, which was nothing more than to persuade him to reconcile with the War God Palace.
But Lin Xuan knew very well that once he took this step, there was no turning back.
He will not reconcile with the War God Palace, much less return to its name. As for the title of town general, whoever wants it can have it; it's just an empty title, and he doesn't care about it.
"Yes, sir..."
Chu Lingkong responded and immediately turned and left.
Standing beside him, Tie Dachui opened his mouth as if to say something, but ultimately closed it, saying nothing. However, Lin Xuan noticed his expression and actions. Lin Xuan glanced at Tie Dachui and chuckled, "Dachui, if you have something to say, just say it. Keeping it bottled up like this will only cause internal injuries..."
"As expected, nothing can be hidden from the master."
Tie Dachui gave an awkward smile, scratched his head, and said, "Sir, you really don't intend to see Xu Changshan?"
"What, are you here as a go-between for Xu Changshan? What benefits did he promise you?" Lin Xuan asked casually with a smile.
"Your Honor is right! I absolutely did not receive a single penny of bribe from Xu Changshan!"
Tie Dachui immediately panicked, his expression changed drastically, and he hurriedly tried to explain, his eyes filled with anxiety and worry.
"Alright, I was just kidding. Why are you so nervous?" Lin Xuan waved his hand and chuckled. "Tell me! Do you think I should meet Xu Changshan?"
"this……"
Tie Dachui breathed a sigh of relief, but then became nervous again, because he really couldn't figure out whether Lin Xuan was joking or serious. Now that Lin Xuan had suddenly asked this question, he didn't know how to answer.
However, Tie Dachui was not the kind of person who would scheme or plot. After carefully considering his options for a while, he finally couldn't suppress his true nature and said in a muffled voice, "My lord, I don't know what the right decision is."
However, I believe that you should meet with him, since Xu Changshan did speak to you and the Shanhe Army in the past, and he has done us a favor.
As the saying goes, "A drop of water in need should be repaid with a spring of water," and I understand this principle.
"Haha, you seem honest and simple, but you're actually very shrewd and worldly-wise!"
Lin Xuan burst into laughter, but a sharp glint appeared in his eyes. After a long while, he said in a deep voice, "Since that's the case, let's meet him! You're right. No matter what, Xu Changshan helped me before. Although I'm confident that even without him, I can handle everything."
As he spoke, Lin Xuan waved his hand and said to Tie Dachui, "Go to the door and bring him here to see me..."
"Yes, sir!"
Iron Hammer was overjoyed, responded, and immediately turned and went downstairs.
Lin Xuan shook his head slightly, chuckled, and then his expression gradually became serious. After returning to the Outer Heaven this time, he would not be coming back for a while. As for the remaining demons and monsters in this world, they were no longer a threat. There was no need for the Mountain and River Army and him to take action; the others were enough to handle them.
After all, among the world's major powers, there are many strong individuals who are not to be trifled with.
If they can't even handle the remaining evil remnants, they deserve to be wiped out.
What he needs to think about now is what to do after returning to Hangu Pass. This world has actually come to an end, and he cannot stay in Hangu Pass forever.
"Perhaps it's time to open that passage and take a look at the world where demons and monsters reside."
Lin Xuan thought to himself.
A few minutes later.
Just as Lin Xuan was deep in thought, Tie Dachui arrived with Xu Changshan. Upon entering the tent, Xu Changshan immediately bowed to Lin Xuan and said, "General Lin..."
"No, senior, please just call me by my name! I have already betrayed the War God Palace and am no longer a garrison commander." Lin Xuan chuckled, raised his hand, and said, "Please sit down, senior!"
"Hehe, then thank you very much, Young Master Lin."
Xu Changshan smiled somewhat awkwardly, then sat down opposite Lin Xuan.
Lin Xuan didn't say anything, but personally brewed tea for Xu Changshan and said with a smile, "Senior, try my tea. Although it's not a famous tea, it was grown by my own hands, and the taste is quite good."
Thank you!
Xu Changshan picked up his teacup, took a sip, and his eyes immediately lit up with excitement; he was utterly shocked.
