Stop pretending, I'm a security guard, a five-star general!

Tiananmen Pass

This S-class pass, located on the northwestern frontier of the Great Xia Dynasty, welcomed a distinguished guest today.

The general's mansion,

Qin Qingshan was sitting cross-legged on a futon, cultivating with his eyes closed. Although his breathing was calm and long, anyone could feel the terrifying energy contained within it.

If there were other people present, they would surely know.

This is the aura of someone about to break through to a higher realm.

But at that moment, Qin Qingshan's body suddenly trembled slightly, because his divine sense suddenly detected a figure that had appeared out of nowhere beside him.

Alarm bells rang in Qin Qingshan's mind. He was about to get up to defend himself when a hand suddenly pressed down on his shoulder, followed by an aged voice:

"Don't panic, it's me."

Upon hearing this voice, Qin Qingshan was slightly taken aback, but he quickly calmed down and continued to focus wholeheartedly on breaking through to the next realm.

The figure stood quietly beside Qin Qingshan, protecting him.

Time passes slowly,

Soon, the sun set, and crimson sunset clouds climbed into the sky.

Qin Qingshan had been sitting quietly in place for a full eight hours, and that figure had been waiting beside Qin Qingshan for a full eight hours.

Finally, until a certain moment,

Qin Qingshan suddenly opened his eyes, and a vast, powerful, and terrifying aura instantly spread out.

In an instant, the sky and earth changed color, and wild beasts within a radius of 100 kilometers were so frightened by this terrifying aura that they lay prostrate on the ground, unable to move.

But this aura came quickly and went quickly.

In the blink of an eye, it vanished without a trace.

Qin Qingshan exhaled a deep breath, drawing the energy back into his body, and a barely suppressed smile appeared on his lips.

Seven-Star Martial Emperor, breakthrough successful!

"Looks like I'm your lucky star. You broke through as soon as I arrived."

At this moment, the white-haired old man who had been silently waiting by the side finally spoke with a smile.

Qin Qingshan looked at the newcomer, who was wearing a white vest, black shorts, and black canvas shoes. He had a full head of white hair, was unkempt, and exuded a faint smell of sweat. He looked extremely slovenly, just like a sleazy old man.

But probably no one would have guessed that this sleazy old man...

It was none other than Chu Yunlong, one of the five great generals of the Great Xia Dynasty and a four-star Martial Venerable!

"Old Chu, what brings you here?" Qin Yu asked with a surprised smile.

Although the other party was a general, Qin Qingshan didn't have much respect for him, after all, the two of them were like brothers who grew up together.

"Because of your grandson," Chu Yunlong said with a smile.

"What?! My grandson?"

Upon hearing this, Qin Qingshan's heart skipped a beat:

"Is this kid going to kill another prince?"

"Damn it! I solemnly declare that from this moment on, I have absolutely nothing to do with this kid, so don't arrest me!"

Chu Yunlong: ...

Goodness, what a loving grandfather and filial grandson!

Then, Chu Yunlong briefly explained what His Majesty had told him.

Upon hearing this, Qin Qingshan's pupils contracted slightly:

"You mean, the demon race now has a way to allow an eight-star demon lord to pass through the spatial rift and descend upon Earth?"

"I don't know if it's true or not, but this matter is of great importance, so it's better to believe it than not."

"That makes sense." Qin Qingshan nodded. "By the way, what if in the end no demon lords from the demon race descend upon Blue Star?"

"That means your grandson lied about military intelligence, committed the crime of deceiving the emperor, and will be punished along with his entire family."

Qin Qingshan: ? ? ?

Meanwhile, in the realm of demons and gods.

On a desolate desert, a massive military fortress stands, where hundreds of thousands of demon warriors are stationed.

One kilometer directly in front of the fortress, a massive void rift stretched out. Once they passed through that spatial rift, they would descend upon Blue Star.
