C8 Sha City

Sha City.

This was an even more bustling and lively city than the capital. Perhaps it was not as ancient as the capital, and it lacked a few traces of ancientness. However, it felt a bit heavier. The soldiers had a stern expression on their faces. Their skin was dark and they were standing in neat rows. They were standing guard at the city gate, giving off an air of iron bloodlust.

The Sha City was a small city, but it was the only place in the Empire that was a thousand miles away from the border. Not only was it connected to the Empire, it was also the only stronghold with the throat of the border ten prefectures, because the entrance was set up in the Sha City.

Immediately, a ten-man team of soldiers rode their horses out of the city gate under the lead of a captain. In a vigilant formation, they rushed towards the direction of the yellow smoke, the Sha City was a military fortress, it had always been a military command system, and although the thirteenth battalion was composed of only ten thousand people, the entire Eastern Legion was made up of a small number of cultivators. Battalion Commander had to have the strength of a nine star Dou Ling or more, and all of the Battalion Commanders and Battalions had to have the strength of a Dou Ling or higher.

The captain of the squadron had brought his own squad to a halt far away, leading the two scouts of the squad forward, their hands tightly grasping the hilt of their swords, and seeing from afar that the two warriors facing them had stopped protecting a carriage, the captain could not help but feel alarmed when he sensed the auras of the two guards, these two were both battle qi warriors, the leader among them was at least at the Great Dou Shi level, and he could not see through the other party's strength, but the aura emitted from their bodies made him feel cold, and the other person was also at the same level as him, a nine star Dou Shi.

The strong man with the unpredictable strength rode forward and coldly spoke to the captain: "Is this Sha City in front of us?"

The captain looked at the sturdy man and became more cautious. He immediately saluted and said, "Sir, Sha City is up ahead, I am the captain of Squad Seven of the Thirteenth Battalion, Fang Yuan. May I know what brings you gentlemen to our Sha City?"

When the sturdy man heard the captain's words, he immediately revealed a smile on his cold face. He turned around and gestured to the old man behind him, then changed his cold expression and chuckled to Fang Yuan, "Our Prince Xuan follows the orders of the Emperor to head to the Hale Province. We may need to borrow your Sha City's teleportation circle." They had passed through the teleportation circle in the capital and arrived at the border ten prefectures, but to reach the feudal fiefdom in Howl Province, they had to go through the teleportation circle of the Sha City, so they had to go straight for the Sha City. When Fang Yuan heard this, he knew that this was the new commander, 'Prince Xuan'. He immediately gave a military salute to the strong man and said loudly, "You can follow me into the city to meet the Battalion Commander." The sturdy man nodded. "That's only natural. Please lead the way." Fang Yuan then waved his hand towards the small group of people, and immediately, all the riders turned their horses and rushed off in the direction of Sha City. Long Xuan's carriage, along with the two guards leading the way, sped off in the direction of Sha City.

Long Xuan's group followed their captain Fang Yuan and entered the Sha City. The Sha City was not big, but all the facilities were basically constructed according to the barracks, with many private facilities, thus the Sha City could be said to be a military fortress with a total of ten thousand soldiers, divided into a thousand people, a hundred people, a thousand people, all of them were composed of low level cultivators, without any ordinary soldiers, the captain of the ten people's position had to be at least at the level of nine star Dou Shi, while the captain of the thousand people's position must reach the level of nine stars, he must reach at least the ninth star level of cultivation. With the deep recognition of the commander of the Eastern Legion, Prince Long Tianming, Sha City was stationed at the gate of the ten prefectures at the border. Furthermore, their leader, Prince Long Tianming, had even personally sent people over to inform them of the arrival of Long Xuan. Everyone knew that this prince had temporarily come to the border to seek shelter, and would normally return to the capital after a year or two.

Long Xuan had teleported to the Nine Prefectures through the Empire's teleportation array, but he had to pass through the Sha City to return to his own gate. Before Long Xuan could even reach the Sha City, he had already gone to meet his uncle, Long Tianming, and after saying a few words of encouragement, he let Long Xuan head towards the Sha City. On the way there, Long Xuan found that there were no dangers, and that there were no dangers at all.

Long Xuan pushed the window open and looked towards the capital. He knew that a violent storm was about to break out in the capital and he did not know what kind of situation this storm, pushed by himself, would cause in the capital, but it was certain that blood would flow like a river and it was unknown how many of his brothers would fall in this storm. However, the temptation of the throne was so that they would be willing to sacrifice everything in order to get as far away from this storm as possible, even if they had to pay the price of their lives.

He had to stay in the Sha City for a full month before he could go to his own fief, because during this period of time, the communication door to the Sha City was not open so easily. He had to wait for the Eastern Legion to deliver the logistics for him. This month, Long Xuan didn't do anything at all. Although he was a prince, he couldn't casually interfere in the affairs of the army. Long Xuan was currently studying desperately, and was unable to cultivate, but Long Xuan also didn't want to be an ordinary prince.
