You get Lu Bu as your starting character.

Chapter 264 You dare to make a move in the government office? You're dead!
Zongren Mansion.

Cao Zhengchun's words stirred a ripple in the calm mood of the Eighth Prince Zhou Xian.

Originally, King Zhou Xian thought that there were still more than ten years before those people entered the world, which would give the Great Zhou enough time to prepare for its revival.

But Zhou Xian, the Eighth Prince, never expected that those people would enter the world ahead of schedule.

Cao Zhengchun, observing the reaction of the Eighth Prince Zhou Xian, said, "Judging from Your Highness's reaction, you must know the origins of these people."

"I wonder if Your Highness could enlighten me?"

A natural expression cannot lie.

Especially Zhou Xian, the Eighth Prince, reacted naturally at the first moment, which could not escape Cao Zhengchun's sharp eyes.

Let alone someone as discerning as Cao Zhengchun, even an ordinary person could see through the obvious reaction of the Eighth Prince Zhou Xian.

The Eighth Prince Zhou Xian took a deep breath; "If nothing unexpected happens, the people that Eunuch Cao mentioned should be reclusive people from 'Tianshan'."

Tianshan?

A recluse?

What is the origin of this?
Cao Zhengchun was somewhat puzzled.

As the head of the Eastern Depot, who monitored the entire Great Zhou Dynasty, Cao Zhengchun had never heard of a place called 'Tianshan'.

I've never heard of a group of people outside of the secular world.

"Your Highness, what kind of place is this Tianshan?"

"Your Highness, could you please explain this to me in detail?"

Cao Zhengchun looked at Zhou Xian, the Eighth Prince, and said with a slight frown.

Now that Cao Zhengchun has learned that there is a place in the Great Zhou that is beyond the monitoring of the Eastern Depot.

Therefore, Cao Zhengchun naturally needed to learn more about the 'Tianshan' region.

“Eunuch Cao, I have only heard of this place called ‘Tianshan’.”

"I only know that the people of Tianshan go into the mortal world for training every few decades."

"As for the rest, I know nothing about them."

The Eighth Prince, Zhou Xian, shook his head and said.

"However, these people generally don't get involved in worldly affairs."

King Zhou Xian, the Eighth Prince, seemed to remember something and added a sentence.

Upon hearing this, Cao Zhengchun's eyes narrowed immediately.

do not know?
Still unwilling to talk?

Cao Zhengchun was somewhat dissatisfied with Zhou Xian's answer and also harbored doubts.

Cao Zhengchun gave Zhou Xian, the Eighth Prince, a deep look; "Since Your Highness doesn't know, then I won't disturb you any longer."

"However, if Your Highness remembers anything, you must inform me immediately."

Cao Zhengchun said meaningfully, and stood up.

Whether the Eighth Prince Zhou Xian truly didn't know or was unwilling to speak, Cao Zhengchun knew that he had no way to get to the bottom of it further.

Because the other party was the Eighth Prince, not an ordinary person, his status was evident.

However, judging from Cao Zhengchun's intuition, the Eighth Prince Zhou Xian must know something else, but he just doesn't want to say it.

"Of course, of course, please take care, Eunuch Cao."

The Eighth Prince Zhou Xian also rose and escorted Cao Zhengchun out of the main hall.

Watching Cao Zhengchun's departing figure, the Eighth Prince Zhou Xian's expression suddenly became uncertain.

Those people's premature entry into the world disrupted the peaceful mood of the Eighth Prince, Zhou Xian.

"This is trouble."

“Those people entered the world ahead of time, and I believe the master will arrive soon as well.”

"At that time, what about His Majesty...?"

Thinking of this, Zhou Xian, the Eighth Prince, felt his heart sink.

The Eighth Prince, Zhou Xian, was already familiar with Emperor Zhou Chen's style of conduct.

That's absolutely a matter of principle, domineering and unquestionable.

If the host family members arrive, a fierce conflict may break out.

That would be a huge problem.

The Eighth Prince Zhou Xian vaguely remembered that more than twenty years ago, it was because of those worldly people that the Zhou royal family was almost doomed.

……

Customs.

The Northern Capital.

The main hall of the government office.

The Prefect of Beidu looked at the two young men who entered the hall and asked, "Who are you two gentlemen? What brings you to see me?"

The new prefect of Beidu Prefecture is newly appointed.

After Jia Xu left, he took over the position of prefect of Beidu Prefecture.

"You don't need to know who we are."

"We've come to you today to ask you to release those Northern Barbarians who have been captured."

"Furthermore, from now on, everything in Beidu City will be decided by us."

You don't have any objections, do you?

The two young men looked at the prefect of Beidu sitting in the hall and spoke without any politeness, showing no regard for this official of Beidu.

These two young men were none other than the two worldly-minded young men from the restaurant earlier.

"presumptuous."

"You dare to speak to me like that, and you even want me to release those Northern Di barbarians who have been demoted to prisoners and obey your orders in the future? You are simply audacious."

“You are undoubtedly traitors from another race.”

The prefect of Beidu Prefecture never expected that these two seemingly respectable young men would be so audacious as to act so arrogantly and presumptuously towards their magistrate in the prefectural government office.

Not only did he release the Northern Di barbarians who had been reduced to hard labor, but he also dared to shamelessly demand that he, the local official, obey their orders.

This is utterly outrageous and blasphemous.

They didn't take the Great Zhou Dynasty, or even the prefect of Beidu Prefecture, seriously at all.

Upon hearing this, the prefect of Beidu Prefecture flew into a rage and shouted outside, "Guards, seize these two madmen at once!"

In this northern capital, he, the official in charge of the Northern Capital Prefecture, was like heaven.

They dared to act arrogantly and recklessly towards him, the local official of Beidu Prefecture, on his own territory, and even wanted him to release prisoners of the court, thus defying the court.

That's no different from courting death.

At the command of the prefect of Beidu Prefecture, more than a dozen guards rushed in from outside.

"Hmph, mere ants."

"They dare to go against our wishes; they're truly courting death."

The young man in gray brocade robes looked at the dozen or so guards who rushed in and snorted disdainfully.

In the eyes of this young man in gray brocade robes, this official of the Northern Barbarian Prefecture might seem high and mighty to ordinary people.

But in their eyes, they were nothing, no different from ants.

Let alone a prefectural lord, even the emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty would be nothing in their eyes.

The fact that they came to the government office and asked the prefect to release the people was already a great favor to him.

They originally didn't want to take action, but seeing the Lord of the Manor's posture, they had no choice but to.

The young man in gray brocade robes struck casually.

The dozen or so guards who rushed in were blasted away.

Upon seeing this scene, the prefect of Beidu Prefecture, who was sitting in the hall, changed his expression and immediately stood up.

Judging from the young man in gray brocade robes' actions, the Lord of the Northern Di Prefecture had already realized that the opponent's strength was somewhat terrifying.

"Bold."

"If you dare to make a move in the government office, you're dead."

"Quickly, notify General Gao to gather all the guards and capture him..."

Before he could finish speaking, the prefect of Beidu Prefecture found that a strong hand was gripping his neck, preventing him from uttering another word.

"you……"

The prefect of Beidu Prefecture blushed, and a hint of fear showed in his eyes.

A sense of impending death crept into the mind of the prefect of Beidu. Just then…

A loud shout came.

"presumptuous."

"Who are you people, daring to assassinate the prefect of Beidu Prefecture and attack the prefectural government office of Beidu Prefecture?"

Gao Shun appeared in the lobby.

A powerful aura emanated from Gao Shun, heading straight for the two youths.

The area outside the main hall was also completely surrounded by heavily armored soldiers from the Trapped Army.

Gao Shun stared coldly at the two young men and said, "I advise you to quickly release the Lord of the Prefecture and surrender obediently."

"Otherwise, I will make sure you die a horrible death."

The coldness in Gao Shun's eyes was undisguised.

As the garrison commander of Beidu Prefecture, Gao Shun never expected that someone would dare to attack the prefectural government office so audaciously and even capture the prefectural lord.

This was a dereliction of duty on his part as the garrison commander.

Faced with Gao Shun's approaching aura, the two young men were surprised. They hadn't expected that there would be such a master in the government office.

Despite his young age, Gao Shun exuded an extremely powerful aura.

"Heh, you think you can make us die a gruesome death by the wayside, you mere worldly general?"

"That's incredibly arrogant."

The young man in the gray brocade robe exerted force on his hand.

A 'click' sound.

Without hesitation, the young man in gray brocade robes snapped the neck of the prefect of Beidu Prefecture, sending him to hell.

"I'd like to see how you, a worldly general, will make us die a gruesome death."

The gray-clad young man casually tossed the corpse of the prefectural lord of Beidu on the ground and looked at Gao Shun provocatively.

It's utterly ridiculous that a mere worldly general would dare to threaten them.

"court death."

Seeing the gray-clad youth kill the prefect of Beidu Prefecture, Gao Shun's face turned extremely gloomy.

"boom."

The aura of a Grandmaster of the First Rank erupted in full force.

Without saying a word, Gao Shun drew his sword and slashed at the two young men.

The young man in gray brocade robes also made his move at the same time, meeting Gao Shun's attack.

"boom……"

The two exchanged several blows, forcing each other to retreat.

Gao Shun stared at the other party with a solemn expression. After several months of cultivation, Gao Shun's strength had broken through to the Great Perfection of the First Grade, which is also known as the peak of the Grandmaster.

However, after just exchanging blows with the opponent, he still didn't gain any advantage.

Gao Shun hadn't expected the other party to be so powerful. No wonder they dared to attack his Beidu government office so brazenly and even kill the prefect.

But such a powerful young man seems to have never been heard of in the Great Zhou Dynasty. Just who is he?

Gao Shun stared intently at the other person, secretly guessing what was going on in his mind.

Similarly, the young man in gray brocade robes stared intently at Gao Shun.

The young man in gray brocade robes had not expected that in this secular world, there would be such a young general who could fight him without being at a disadvantage.

It seems that this young general has mastered quite a few martial arts techniques and combat skills.

The other young man next to him also looked at Gao Shun with surprise.

In the secular world, there are indeed those who can contend with these worldly people, but they are extremely rare.

The young man never expected that the young general in front of him could fight the gray-clad youth to a standstill, which surprised him.

The young man stepped forward, looked at Gao Shun, and said, "My name is Liang Tong. You are quite capable and qualified to follow us."

"As long as you follow us, you will receive unimaginable benefits, breaking through the limits of mortals and even surpassing the level of celestial beings."

"It's far, far better than what you're doing as a general now, isn't it?"

The young man named Liang Tong looked at Gao Shun and extended an olive branch to him.

In the secular world, to be able to hold one's own against worldly people at such a young age shows considerable talent.

Those who have experienced life in the world will not miss out on someone with such talent.

This is also one of the purposes of these people entering the world to gain experience.

Gao Shun glanced coldly at the young man named Liang Tong and said icily, "You two madmen dare to presumptuously ask me, Gao Shun, to follow you. You are truly courting death."

“I, Gao Shun, don’t care who you are. You dare to kill my Great Zhou officials and provoke the majesty of my Great Zhou. You will not escape today.”

Where is the Trapped Camp?

Gao Shun shouted loudly.

These two young men are very strong.

Especially the young man who spoke last, Liang Tong, Gao Shun felt considerable pressure from him.

But Gao Shun was not afraid, nor would he back down.

Because Gao Shun still had the Trapped Camp.

"The will to charge into battle is one of certain death."

The soldiers of the Trapped Camp gathered behind Gao Shun.

As the Trapped Camp shouted, Gao Shun's aura suddenly surged, becoming more than twice as powerful as before.

The phantom of the military spirit also appeared above the heads of the Trapped Camp.

The two young men were surprised when they saw this; "Military spirit?"

The two young men never expected that Gao Shun, this general, would actually command an army with a strong military spirit.

It should be understood that any army that has been born and embodies a strong military spirit is not to be underestimated.

With such an army, one would be virtually invincible.

"Follow me to kill the traitors."

After his momentum reached its peak, Gao Shun drew his sword and charged at the two youths once again.

With the addition of the military spirit, Gao Shun's strength has undergone a dramatic transformation.

Even when facing these two formidable young men, Gao Shun was confident he could put up a fight.

At Gao Shun's command, the Trapped Camp formed a battle formation and surrounded the two youths.

In the past few months, not only has Gao Shun's strength increased to the peak of Grandmaster, but the overall strength of the Trapped Camp has also improved by several levels.

The current Trapped Camp is not the same as it used to be.

If the Trapped Camp was previously powerless against a half-step Celestial Master like the Northern Barbarian National Teacher, then the current Trapped Camp can fight back against a half-step Celestial Master.

"I don't know what to do."

Seeing that Gao Shun rejected the olive branch he had extended, a cold glint flashed across Liang Tong's face.

Since we cannot use them, we have no choice but to annihilate them without hesitation.

However, faced with Gao Shun's current strength with the Military Soul Gatling and the Trapped Camp, Liang Tong and the gray-clad youth's expressions also became more serious.

They had already sensed that Gao Shun's strength had increased several times over under the influence of the military spirit.

"boom……"

This time, Liang Tong directly confronted Gao Shun.

The two figures clashed fiercely, exchanging blows in a fierce battle.

Compared to that young man in gray brocade robes, Liang Tong's strength was undoubtedly much greater.

Meanwhile, the Trapped Camp surrounded and attacked the gray-clad young man.

With the coordination of their formation and the spirit of the army, the Trapped Camp remained completely composed in the face of the gray-clad youth, their attackers handling the situation with ease and showing no signs of being routed.

The fighting inside the government office alarmed those around.

A series of hurried footsteps rushed in from all directions, surrounding the entire government office.

In addition to the elite Trapped Camp led by Gao Shun, there are also three thousand Imperial Guards in this northern capital city.

These three thousand guards were all elite troops from the former Zhenbei Army.

Hearing the sounds of fighting coming from inside the government office, all the guards except for a portion stationed outside the city gates surrounded the area.
