"Stop right there!"
Two soldiers raised their swords and pointed them at Li Fan. "Dismount!"
When passing through the checkpoint, unless one was a soldier with a military seal, everyone had to dismount and stand trial.
Li Fan didn't want to expose his identity here, so he jumped off the horse and pointed at the royal guard seal on his shoulder.
"This is my identity."
"Royal guard?"
The two soldiers were shocked. They put down their swords and saluted Li Fan.
The royal guard seal couldn't be faked. It was a symbol of status bestowed by the Crown Prince himself. Moreover, from the insignia on the seal, they should be the guards of Princess Qiu Ya. That's not right. This red horse … seems to be Crown Prince Qiu Yu's mount … I heard that he had already given it to Great General Li Dazhuang who is currently in the limelight!
"Greetings, General Li!"
The two guards weren't idiots and immediately recognized him.
"Mm, thank you for your hard work."
"Where is the General going?"
The guard asked as usual.
"I'm going to train in the tomb according to the Crown Prince's orders."
Li Fan took out the key to the tomb. The Second Prince told him that no matter where he went, as long as he took out the key and said he was going to the tomb, no one would stop him.
Indeed, after seeing the key, the two guards looked at him enviously.
"I see. Then, General, please pass."
The two guards typed the code and the gate slowly lowered, allowing Li Fan to pass.
Li Fan held onto his ruby and walked into the checkpoint. Because of his identity as a royal guard, the surrounding guards saluted him.
Inside the checkpoint was a small military camp. The guards were responsible for the safety of the checkpoint.
Li Fan replenished his food and water and prepared to continue his journey. At this moment, a team of ten guards walked over and stopped in front of Li Fan. They saluted him.
"General Li."
"You are?"
"We are the guards of the King's Wall. We heard that the General is going to the Immortal Tomb, so we are here to escort you."
"No need, I can go by myself."
Li Fan waved his hand and prepared to leave. However, the Decurion clearly didn't intend to let Li Fan go just like that. He immediately grabbed Li Fan's reins and begged sincerely.
"General, this is the rule of our Sky Beyond Avalon since ancient times. It's a rule imposed by the higher-ups. Please don't make things difficult for us."
Li Fan was someone who could be persuaded by reason, but not cowed by force. With the Decurion begging like this, Li Fan was a little embarrassed to refuse.
"Alright, then I'll have to trouble you all."
"That's great. Thank you!"
The decurion heaved a sigh of relief. "As long as the mission is completed, everything will be fine. Thank you."
"You're welcome. Can we go now?"
"Alright, alright. Brothers, protect General Li well! If anything goes wrong, be careful of your head! "
"Yes!"
These ten people escorted Li Fan all the way out of the pass and headed outside.
Outside the pass was a long river. Following this river, one would be able to reach the location of the Immortal Venerable's tomb.
"Where are you escorting me to?"
The ten people followed Li Fan for at least three kilometers, but they didn't seem to have any intention of leaving. There were fewer and fewer people around. All that was left was a long official road. Who knew how long they would have to walk?
"There's still a long way to go, General."
The Decurion chuckled, then slowly took out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket. He took one out and held it in his hand.
"Do you want one? It's human stuff. "
"Forget it."
Li Fan thought to himself, the ordinary objects in the lower world are all rare goods here.
"This stuff is pretty good. It'd be a pity if you don't smoke it, General."
The Decurion slowly put away his cigarette.
"Would a soulless person feel anything from smoking something like this?"
Li Fan suddenly asked.
"Oh? What do you mean by that, General? "
"There's no need to hide it, is there?"
Li Fan chuckled. "I may not be very smart, but I'm no fool. For no reason at all, an army came to escort me to the Immortal Graveyard. I've never heard of such a rule before. "
He looked at the people in front of him. "You say you're escorting me, but I'm afraid you're going to send me to hell?"
"General Li is truly clever."
The look in the Decurion's eyes changed. It was no longer respectful, but vicious and cunning.
"These are the puppets that I control, including the body that you're talking to. I can use a secret art to enter their minds and talk to you personally. "
"Lord Chang, if you want to chat, why don't we meet in person?"
"Nonsense. I have nothing to do with Lord Chang."
The Decurion's face twisted. "Idiot, you know it's a trap, but you still came to die! Let me tell you, we're after the key in your hand. As the saying goes, treasuring a jade ring becomes a crime. If you want to blame someone, blame yourself for having something you shouldn't have! "
"What a high-sounding reason."
Li Fan shook his head. "It doesn't matter if you don't want to admit it. But don't you think it's not enough to send these three cats to make trouble for me? "
"Don't underestimate my 'Black Camp'!"
Seeing that Li Fan was still so arrogant, Lord Chang was instantly enraged.
In this world, only I can be arrogant! All those who are more arrogant than me must die!
At this moment, he was looking at the young general through the eyes of the puppets, waiting for death to befall him.
"Friend, this place is picturesque. It's perfect for your grave."
As the Decurion spoke, he waved his hand. The nine soldiers behind him suddenly threw away their swords and drew new weapons from their robes. Katanas!
"You know some martial arts from Earth, don't you?"
The Decurion sneered. "These puppets of mine are all experts in Earth's most exquisite martial arts! Die! "
As he spoke, one of the puppets had already raised his katana and slashed at Li Fan!
Even Li Fan had to praise this person. This person's skill with the saber was very exquisite. He was like a master who had immersed himself in this art for many years. His saber technique was like a thunderbolt. In an instant, it arrived in front of Li Fan. But Li Fan gently moved his body to the side and casually dodged the saber technique. At the same time, he summoned his scarlet spear and stabbed it at the opponent!
The other two sabermen stepped forward and raised their katanas at the same time. They actually blocked Li Fan's spear! At the same time, another two sabermen moved behind Li Fan. They raised their sabers and slashed at Li Fan's arms!
These few people, what sharp saber skills, what tacit cooperation!
Li Fan shook his arms. The great spear shook off the blades of the two sabermen in front of him. At the same time, he turned around and used Total Annihilation, sending the two swordsman flying!
