Opening an office in Taila

After a tiring journey by boat and car, and even taking a transport aircraft along the way, Song Yufeng and his companions arrived at Yumen Pass three days later.

Yumen Pass is a typical mobile border city. The military strength here even exceeds that of the capital. The most elite warriors from all over the Yan Kingdom are gathered here. The huge artillery and giant crossbows on the border fortress are on standby at any time. Once they roar, they can be heard within a hundred miles.

It is such a city that has produced many heroes, and today it welcomes two heroes.

As soon as Song Yufeng got off the aircraft, he was warmly welcomed by the Governor of Yumen Pass. He walked up to Song Yufeng and shook his hand enthusiastically, saying, "Ah, Mr. Song, we've finally had you. They say heroes emerge from youth, and it seems to be true today."

"Your Excellency the Governor is too kind. I am only a rookie and far from being a hero. It is Mr. Xiao behind me who is the real hero."

"That's not true. While Old Master Xiao is undoubtedly a hero, isn't a hero's disciple also a hero? Come on in, both of you. We'll discuss our next battle strategy in the council hall. The old Heavenly Master has been waiting there for quite some time. Furthermore, we've also invited an absolutely powerful helper to ensure your safety."

Led by the Governor, the two arrived at the Parliament Hall.

The room was already full of people. From what Song Yufeng could see, there were six generals, two civil servants, an old Taoist priest, and someone Song Yufeng was very familiar with.

In other words, it is the fragments of a giant beast.

Shu, one of the fragments born after the Sui Beast split apart, is in charge of grain planting. She has been rooted in Dahuang City for countless years, just to protect the peace of Dahuang City and to prevent the local people from going hungry. Logically speaking, people like Shu should be rooted in the fields of Dahuang City all year round. Now she has been really invited here by Simaitai, and directly to Yumen Pass. It seems that the situation is indeed urgent.

Alas, taking root in the fields reminded Song Yufeng of an old academician in his own world.

We pay the highest tribute to everyone who has contributed to national food security!

Moreover, Song Yufeng himself could feel a restlessness in his body. Thinking about it carefully, it was probably because of the giant beast fragments in the millet itself (the giant beast can also be regarded as a kind of god).

At the same time, Song Yufeng also became curious. Why did Simuitai invite Shu but not the other Sui Beast fragments? Moreover, Song Yufeng remembered that the martial artist named Zhongyue seemed to be here at Yumen Pass. Why didn't they invite him?

Song Yufeng suppressed the restlessness in his body and walked into the parliament hall.

Seeing the governor and others come in, everyone else stood up. The governor waved his hand to signal everyone to sit down, and then signaled Song Yufeng and the other two to come to him.

"My dear colleagues, you all know why we are gathered here. The evil demons from the border are coming in full force, and we must discuss countermeasures and how to resist them. Now, please allow me to solemnly introduce the two imperial envoys sent by His Majesty himself, Song Yufeng and Xiao Yichen. They are both elite warriors."

The generals below seemed a little disdainful, but that was normal. How powerful could a young boy and a sixty-year-old man be?

The old Taoist priest did not speak, but just sat quietly on the chair, while Shu showed a very curious look, as if he was also curious about what Song Yufeng and others were capable of.

"Song Yufeng is the young man who killed a member of the Imperial Guard at Longmen. He has now been recruited, and he's the dark horse among the dark horses in this martial arts tournament. His combat power is extremely formidable. Xiao Yichen is the descendant of that old Xiao family elder. I think you should know how powerful his father is, right? Xiao Yichen's strength is not inferior to his father's."

After hearing these words, the generals immediately stood in awe, including Shu. After all, the old elder of the Xiao family was also one of the people who crushed the Sui Beast back then.

In this way, no one would dare to look down on Grandpa Xiao. As for Song Yufeng, although he had killed the imperial guards, everyone just regarded him as Grandpa Xiao's apprentice. He had a promising future, but he had not yet attracted enough attention.

Song Yufeng and Mr. Xiao took their seats, and then the meeting officially began.

"General Li, how is our army's preparation now?"

"Reporting to the Governor, we have entered a full level one alert. The newly forged city defense artillery has been deployed a few days ago, and the Imperial Guards and Heavenly Masters transferred from other places are all in place."

"Very good, General Zhang, how is our defense line currently constructed?"

"Reporting to the Governor, we have built multiple layers of defense to block the enemy at every level. We will definitely not let the evil demons break into Yumen Pass."

"Very good, General Yang. How are our supplies? Are the arrows and ammunition ready?"

"Absolutely enough!"

"Alright, from now on, everyone, buckle up! The entire army will patrol 24 hours a day. Send out all our scouts and report any situation immediately! Everyone, the people of Yumen Pass, as well as the people of Dayan behind us, have no one but us to rely on. We must hold on!"

"Yes!"

"Okay, adjourn the meeting! Go and get ready immediately. Song Yufeng, Xiao Yichen, and Shu, the three of you stay here. The old master has other plans."
