  Marquis of Champions?

  These three words fell in Lin Qiye’s ears like a thunderclap.

  In the history of Daxia, there was only one person who could be crowned with this title …… Huo Zaiwei!

  Since Huo Zaiwei is in this era, it means that this is Western Han?

  He was actually brought to Western Han by the [Holy Covenant]?

  Lin Qiye looked in the direction that the crowd was looking, only to see that about four or five miles away from the city gates, a densely packed army had already been stationed, and four steeds rolled up dust and sand as they sped towards the city gates!

  At the same time, the people who were originally standing in line in front of the city gates waiting to enter, have automatically retreated to both sides, leaving a spacious road to enter the city.

  The four figures on horseback gradually approached, and the crowd finally got a good look at them.

  At the head of the group, was a young general clad in armor, looking no more than twenty-four or twenty-five, but there was a kind of perseverance and sternness in his eyes that didn’t match his age, and behind him, a bright red robe hunted as the horses sped by.

  ”Sure enough, it’s him ……” Lin Qiye’s eyes lit up when he saw that familiar face.

  This Huo Daizi in front of him was almost identical to the Huo Daizi he had seen under the National Fortune Sea Island, the only difference was that the young general in front of him had a trace of less vicissitude and depth in his demeanor.

  Huo Zaixiao was riding a white horse, holding a pitch-black iron rope in his hand, and at the other end of the rope, a woman in a prisoner’s uniform was attached.

  This woman’s face is full of dust and sludge, it is impossible to see her face, the pale prison uniform is wrinkled, her shoulders are sealed with a heavy shackle, messy black hair is spread out on it, her body shape shakes slightly with the bumps of the horse.

  Behind her was a powerful deputy general, and a scholar in a Confucian uniform with a kind smile.

  These four people stopped at the city gates of Xue County, and the vice general steered his horse to walk in front of the city wall and roared:

  ”Where is the county magistrate?!”

  This vice general’s voice is like thunder, loud and clear, directly scaring the nearby onlookers back a few steps, the soldiers above the city wall talk for a few moments, and one of them quickly rushes into the city.

  Huo Zaiwei sees the reaction of the surrounding people and frowns slightly:

  ”Yu Wu.”

  That vice general froze, coughed twice, and lowered his head somewhat sheepishly.

  A few moments later, a man wearing an official uniform with a rounded body appeared behind the city gates and respectfully saluted:

  ”I am Zhao Liang, the magistrate of this place, what are the Marquis’ orders?”

  The vice general cleared his throat and spoke as gently as he could, “Before sunset, prepare half a catty of rooster blood, three catty of dried ginger, seven black dog’s teeth, with ten catty of mugwort leaves …… Oh, and a table of good food and wine!”

  ”Rooster blood, dried ginger, black dog’s teeth, and mugwort leaves?” The magistrate’s eyes were full of puzzlement, “What does the Marquis need these for?”

  ”Tsk, if the Marquis wants to use them, just go and prepare them! There’s no need for so much nonsense!” The deputy general’s voice rose again, causing pain in the eardrums, and said fiercely, “Could it be that you don’t want to be the magistrate anymore?”

  Hearing the latter half of the sentence, the magistrate’s face changed drastically, and he immediately spoke:

  ”Yes, humble servant will order people to prepare!”

  ”Wait!”

  A low voice came, the magistrate looked back, only to see the young general on top of the white horse speak in a deep voice, “No alcohol is allowed on the march, besides those items, prepare another table of good food.”

  ”Yes!”

  The magistrate, with his men, hurriedly ran into the city and started searching for the materials needed for Huo Zaiwei and the others.

  Huo Zaizi drove his white horse and slowly walked towards the city, the deputy general and the Confucian scholar followed closely behind, only the woman with the shackles remained in place.

  Huo frowned and spoke in a cold voice:

  ”What? Do you want me to kill you now?”

  An icy cold killing intent is released from Huo Zaiwei’s eyes, and the temperature at the city gates plummets as a hideous thunderbolt streaks across the clear sky, and in the next moment, a thunderclap roars and explodes!

  Prickly la–!

  The light of the sky dims, and when the surrounding people see this, panic emerges on their faces!

  Sensing Huo’s killing intent, the woman, still wearing her shackles, slowly followed behind the trio and entered the city.

  When Lin Qiye saw this, he wanted to go up and call out to Huo Zaiwei, but after hesitating for a moment, he stopped.

  In this era, Huo Zaiwei didn’t know him at all, even if he rushed up and said a whole lot about the future like a prophet, he couldn’t prove his identity at all, what he knew was too far away for anyone to be able to confirm it, and just based on his understanding of Huo Zaiwei, it would be very difficult to gain the other party’s trust in a short period of time.

  The most crucial thing was that Wu Quan’s situation couldn’t be delayed for much longer.

  Lin Qiye glanced at Wu Quan, whose face was pale behind him, and his figure instantly disappeared in place as he bypassed the main gate of the city wall and came to the edge of an unguarded high wall, and with a strong stomp of his feet, he directly tumbled over the dozens of meters high wall and entered the city.

  With his current clothing and dress, he didn’t look like a Han Chinese at all, so if he came in through the main gate, he would inevitably run into trouble, and going over this city wall wasn’t even the slightest bit difficult for Lin Qiye.

  As Lin Qiye’s figure disappeared into the city, Huo Zaiwei, who was riding his horse on the main road, seemed to notice something and slightly turned his head to look in the direction he left.

  A puzzled look surfaced in his eyes.

  ”Marquis, what’s wrong?” The Vice General asked.

  ”…… Nothing.” Huo shook his head, “Let’s find a place to rest first.”

  ”The Green House is in that direction.” The Confucian-robed scholar said with a serious face, pointing to a tall building in the distance.

  ”Green what building, even if you’re having a fling yourself, you’re still dragging the Marquis along?” The vice general glared at him fiercely, “If you dare to bring the Marquis down, I’ll chop you up!”

  ”Eh eh eh eh eh, what you said, the Marquis went to a greenhouse with me, how can you count it as bringing him down? Besides, the marquis is not young at this age ……”

  ”Enough.” Huo Daizi faintly opened his mouth, interrupting the scholar’s words, “The magistrate has already found a good restaurant, so we will go directly to it.”

  ”…… All at the command of the Marquis.”

  Within the city, Lin Qiye stopped in front of a medical center.

  He quickly walked into it, placed Wu Quan on the table, and turned to the apprentices and doctors in the medical center:

  ”Save the people.”

  An old man looked at the blood-covered Wu Quan, slightly stunned, went forward and touched his body, and took his pulse for a while, his face was a bit gloomy.

  ”Can it be saved?” Lin Qiye asked in a deep voice.

  ”It can be, but this silver two ……”

  ”Silver two?” Lin Qiye touched his empty pockets and was silent for a moment before walking straight to the door of the medical center and locking the portal.

  He turned back to the crowd in the medical center, smashed the ground with a fist to create dense cracks, assumed a bully-like stance, and viciously opened his mouth:

  ”There’s no silver, but if you guys can’t save him, you’ll all be buried with him together!”
