Repugnant Gateway Chapter 301

Qi Tian wanted to charge forward with the iron rod in his hands, but Skinny Du stopped him. ""Why are you being so irrational? That pole of yours can kill someone.""

Qi Tian turned her head, ""So what if I beat him to death?""

For a moment, he didn't know what to say.

""Excuse me, sir, why did you take us as slaves?""

The field officer called Wei Suo was asked, ""Why did I take you as slaves?""

Where is this?

This is the western border of Zhao. Do you know what is the biggest border?

The army was the biggest!

""Now that I say that you are a spy sent by the West Branch, I will give you a choice. Do you want to become a slave or be beheaded?""

An Zeng sighed, ""I know that the border army is bitter and can only rely on themselves to earn subsidies. The imperial government basically doesn't care about the border army either.""

""But by catching people and selling slaves to the West, that's unacceptable.""

""What the hell are you talking about?""

One of the soldiers pulled out his blade, ""You guys look like gangsters from the martial arts world. You might even be robbers.""

""Your father will chop your head off and hand it over to you for money!""

An Zhan shook his head, ""I don't know if you were forced to become demons that aren't humans, or if you were born a demon.""

Wei Suo's face became ugly to behold: ""Capture all of them and tie them up. At the very least, we have enough money for our food and wine. What are we talking about?"".

Before An Chou and Skinny Du could make a move, the Mage from the Mystic Hall lifted his foot and stomped it.

A circle of light shot out from his feet, and wherever it passed, the soldiers would freeze in place, maintaining their previous posture.

It was like a stone statue. It looked very comical.

""Huh?""

Qi Tian was stunned for a moment. ""Monk took action first.""

The Mage from the Profound Palace said, ""If I don't go first, you will kill him.""

Qi Tian waved her hand, ""Why should this scum be kept?""

So what if he killed them, it could be considered as killing them for the sake of the people.

But since you said you won't let me kill him, then kill him.

""But these people cannot be let off so easily. Who knows how many passersby have been sold as slaves.""

The Mage from the Mystic Hall sighed and turned around to look.

Qi Tian, one man, one club, both legs were broken.

With a loud crash, everyone fell to the ground, followed by a series of anguished cries.

Because the wails were too loud, at least a hundred Zhao Soldiers rushed out of the town before long.

The general in the lead turned ashen when he saw that his subordinates had been knocked over.

However, he did not have the same level of insight as Wei Suo and the others. Even though they looked unfamiliar, he did not want to rashly offend cultivators with unknown origins.

Especially these days, the number of cultivators passing by the western region on the Zhao road seemed to have increased quite a bit.

Right now in the town, there was a group of old men that he could not afford to offend resting his feet.

""Aren't you too bold?""

The general looked at Wei Suo and the others' injuries and then said coldly: ""Within my Zhao, injure the soldiers of my Zhao Army. Without a proper explanation, I'm afraid the few of you cannot leave this place so easily"".

Qi Tian laughed coldly, ""If you don't behave properly, your subordinates won't be good people. I don't think that you'll be good either.""

Your men are going to capture us and sell us to the West as slaves.

They do evil directly, and you're the black man behind it. ""

The general's expression changed, as if he was playing tricks on them, and he became friendly as he said, ""Perhaps this is just a misunderstanding. Recently, there have been more spies from the West Branch coming into my country. I think my subordinates have misunderstood that these are spies from West Branch. How can we, as officials, know that we're breaking the law?""

Why don't you come down to town with me, and I'll explain it to them. ""

Skinny Dean replied: ""What a lousy trick. Are you afraid that you'll be disgraced if this matter is spread around?""

""And then we're going into town and a bunch of people are going to catch us?""

He took a step forward and said, ""Lord Fatty is really not afraid of this. Come, come, lead the way. I will take your home.""

The general was suppressed by the imposing manner of the skinny Du siblings. He didn't know where these people came from, so he didn't know how to react in that short period of time.

At this time, a small bookkeeper wearing blue clothes and cloth shoes walked over from behind. He looked to be around fourteen or fifteen years old.

Beautiful, extremely beautiful.

However, the way the little bookkeeper walked carried a sense of pride that seemed to be innate.

Thus, this temperament was very strange. How could a little errand boy be so arrogant in front of these Zhao soldiers?

Others did not understand, but they fought to understand.

Judging from his temperament, An Zhe was certain that this bookkeeper was from Da Xi, and one of the bookkeepers in the Da Xi family.

""What's the matter that's so messy? Don't disturb my young master's rest.""

The little bookkeeper said indifferently, not even pinching his eyes.

The general hurriedly gave an apologetic smile, ""It was our negligence. We should be punished for disturbing young master's rest.""

""Please go back and apologise for me to Young Master. We can resolve this matter very quickly.""

The little bookkeeper made an ""oh"" sound, looked at An Zeng and the others, and finally stopped his gaze at the Mage from the Profound Palace.

""Master, are you from the west or the west?""

The little bookkeeper asked.

The Mage from the Profound Palace clasped his hands together and said, ""Come from the west, let's go back to the west.""

The errand boy replied with another ""Oh?""

The Mage from the Profound Palace replied, ""No, I haven't.""

The errand boy looked puzzled. He looked at the general and said, ""Since he is a high monk of the Western Territory, why is it difficult?""

These people under you don't even dare to open your eyes, even my Young Master dares to stop them.

If Young Master hadn't been in a good mood these few days, would the people in this town still have a good ending?

""If I don't know how to control myself after suffering such a loss, then I deserve to have my leg broken.""

The general did not dare to ignore his words. ""Yes, yes, yes. You are right. I have been the one who failed to supervise them. These people were the ones who made a mistake and acted maliciously.""

""In the future, I will strictly discipline them, and will absolutely not allow them to cause trouble again.""

The errand boy shook his head and sighed, ""Dogs can't change their ways.""

After that, he turned around and left. After walking a few steps, he stopped and turned around to face the Mage from the Profound Palace. He said, ""My master's name is Helian, so he came to the Western Territory to visit the Buddhist Kingdom.""

""If master feels tired, you can come to our place to rest.""

The Mage from the Profound Palace nodded, ""Thank you.""

When the errand boy returned to the town, Helian was the only thought left in An Zhe's mind.

The Great Xi, the Helian Family.

There were too many famous clans in the Da Xi family, because the Da Xi family had existed for too long, and because the Da Xi family was too big.

Even a province of the Da Xi was ten times bigger than a country of Yan. Within such a huge empire, there were many big families.

The Helian family had a huge root in the Da Xi family, and their influence was not small.

There were one or two people from the Helian Family who could speak in the Sacred Court.

When An Zhe and the Helian family had taken the position of the head of the Security Council in the Great Xi, there wasn't any conflict between them.

It was precisely because the clan was too huge that An Zhe was unable to determine which one the little bookkeeper was referring to.

Even if a young man from the Helian Clan's side branch went out, he would still be addressed respectfully as Young Master Helian.

Because of some thoughts, An Zhe remained silent for a while, then asked the general of the State of Zhao, ""Other than us, many other people have come to the Western Regions from you?""

When the general heard the argument, he thought to himself that Ye Zichen was actually someone from the Da Xi family, it was bad luck for him.

Although the other party's imposing manner and numbers were inferior to that Young Master Helian from before, he couldn't afford to offend anyone from the Da Xi world.

Therefore, he hurriedly nodded and said, ""Yes, yes, yes, I don't know why. Recently, a lot of distinguished guests from the Da Xi Country have come to the western region. According to the rules, it is more convenient for them to come out from the western border of the Da Xi Country than my country of Zhao.""

An Zou nodded, ""It's none of your business. The backbone of the border army, don't let it go to waste by yourselves.""

""If there is a war one day, the people on the border will not stand on your side. Let's see how you fight this battle.""

The general thought to himself, this man from the Da Xi family is truly arrogant to the bones. Anyone would teach me a lesson.

Of course, he didn't dare to show off his true colors either.

If it was based on their character in the past, these people would never have kept it.

However, he was in a hurry to go to the Western Territory to save Xu Meijue. He did not want to cause too much trouble, so he discussed this with Qi Tian and the others and decided not to stay in this town any longer.

The four of them continued on their journey. Just as they were about to pass through the town, they noticed that the green-robed bookkeeper was actually waiting for them.

""Gentlemen, my young master wishes to invite you in for a cup of tea. Can you honor him?""

Although his words were polite, his expression showed that even if you didn't come, you would still come.

An Xuan said, ""We still need to hurry, so we won't disturb your young noble.""

The little bookkeeper said, ""To put it bluntly, if the few of you are after those people, I think you can forget about it.""

That general of the State of Zhao couldn't tell, but I could tell that none of you are from the Da Xi family.

There were countless people who had passed the border of the State of Zhao and rushed over for those treasures.

""With your strength, I'm afraid you won't even be able to get a share.""

An Ying's heart skipped a beat. ""Oh?""

""We're just sightseeing. We really don't know what you're talking about.""

The little errand boy said, ""Since you're so aware of your situation, why are you lying to yourself?""

""You are not from the State of Zhao, nor are you from the Da Xi, yet you chose to travel to the west. That is obvious enough.""

""What, you walked on the main road, we can't walk on it?""

The little bookkeeper said, ""I told you to leave, so you left.""

I can't let you go, I can't even crawl, I can't even scram. ""

""Let me take a look. Why don't you let us go?""

The little bookkeeper laughed coldly, ""People from such a remote place are so uncultured and barbaric.""

I tried to persuade you not to listen, but you insisted on letting me cripple you.

With your origins, I'm afraid your parents are the ones who broke the pot and sold iron to support your cultivation. Since you don't know how to cherish it, it's no wonder that others taught you how to do so.

""The world is vast, do you think it's as big as your village?""

Du's thin face turned pale. ""Come, come, let me teach you a lesson. Come, come.""

Just as the little errand boy was about to step forward, a man in his thirties walked out of a house. He was tall and slender, wearing brocade clothes.

She had an elegant bearing and looked very graceful.

""Mingxuan, you're being rude again.""

After the middle-aged man came out, he glared at the errand boy and then said to An Zeng and the others, ""Several people, I'm really sorry. This errand boy has been too arrogant and disrespectful by my young master.""

If you're not in a hurry, come in and have a cup of tea.

""This country of Zhao is so tired. My young master has some good tea that Da Xi brought here, but it's not something that can be found here.""

These words were polite, but they were even more insidious than the errand boy's.

It's obvious that you must come in for a cup of tea.

An Zhe suddenly became interested in that Young Master Helian, he also wanted to know why these people from the Da Xi family were rushing towards the west.

Just when Du was about to say no, An Zhe pulled him into the yard.

Of course, Qi Tian didn't mind if his cultivation was heaven-defying, so he followed him in.

On the other hand, the Mage from the Profound Palace looked worried.

He stood at the door and looked around. He kept feeling that this unremarkable residence was like a gigantic black python that was entrenched within."
