! To achieve this in just one year is an incredibly challenging task."Boss, compared to this mission, I think Blood Rakshasa would rather you just take her life." The Judge mumbled and opened his mout...[]

At the same time.

Inside a regulated area of the capital city, in an office, two elderly men sat, still Tang Lao and the old man in plain clothes.

"He's on the plane!" Lao Tang picked up his phone and looked at the message before calmly speaking.

"Hm!" The old man in plain clothes nodded slightly: "Actually, his timing coming to the capital now is not good at all. It's too sensitive!"

"What's sensitive or not, I'll see who dares to cause trouble when the time comes, and watch how I deal with them!" Lao Tang replied in a bad mood.

"Don't go stirring up trouble for that boy!" The old man in plain clothes glared at Tang Lao with displeasure: "It's better if you don't show yourself, but once you do, the nature of things changes!"

After a brief pause, he spoke again, asking, "Who did he bring with him"

"Lu Yue and the five blades of Yingmen, plus Yuan Hua!" Lao Tang raised his teacup and took a sip.

"Are you sure the four of them, Qinglong included, won't be coming" the elderly man in plain clothes continued to ask.

"Uncertain!" Lao Tang shook his head decisively, put down his teacup, and continued.

If his trip to the capital goes smoothly, then fine. But if someone tries to take advantage of the situation, then it probably won't just be Qinglong and his group who show up!

"Wouldn't you like to see that kind of situation!" The old man in plain clothes glared at Old Tang again.

Then, in a slightly worried tone, they continued, "Hope everything goes smoothly, otherwise it'll be hard to explain to the old man!"

"Last time with the Mok Gek incident, Cheng Ming from the Central District War Department blocked Shadow Gate from taking someone. The old master found out and went ballistic!"

If something goes wrong again this time, he might really take matters into his own hands and chop a few heads off!

"Hmm!" Tang Lao's face also revealed a trace of solemnity.

He knew very well that if the old man really got serious, he wasn't joking!

"Shouldn't all the major families have received the news by now" the commoner elder continued to ask.

"Obviously!" Old Tang nodded.

"Did anyone watch over the point" The old man in plain clothes offered a cigarette to Lao Tang: "Especially the Chu side!"

"Staring at it won't do any good!" Old Tang shook his head slightly: "That kid announced so ostentatiously that he would include Yuan Huana in the Honorary Hall of the Shadow Gate. He clearly did this to give the other party ample preparation."

"What does it mean" the old man in plain clothes paused for a moment.

"Do you think he came to the capital this time just for Yuan Hua" Lao Tang said lightly, "He wants to make an example out of him!"

"Including that incident five years ago, he may not operate on those people this time, but he definitely won't let them off without a warning!"

"Hmm!" The old man in plain clothes nodded slightly, took a puff of his cigarette, and continued, "Someone has to step forward, right Are there any suitable candidates"

"We old fellows should just stay out of this and not make things difficult for him." Old Tang spoke thoughtfully.

Although he is here as the Shadow Gate Master this time, he is still a member of the War Department. It would be appropriate for Mu Yantian to come forward, both in terms of feelings and reason!

"You sly old fox!" the commoner elder gave Tang Lao a withering look.

"Compared to you, I'm inferior!" Lao Tang glared back unhappily: "Don't tell me you don't intend for him to show up"

"Heh heh, tea. This tea is quite good!" The old man in plain clothes smiled awkwardly.

"Old fox!" Tang Lao raised his teacup and downed it in one gulp.

Both of them knew very well that at this juncture when the supreme commander of the war department was about to be elected, Mu Yaitian's appearance carried extraordinary significance!

At 11:00 a.m., the Shadow Gate's private jet landed smoothly at a controlled airport outside the capital city.

Then, Ling Hao and his eight companions descended the aircraft ladder.

"Greetings, General!"

In the distance, three thousand disciples of Yingmen knelt on one knee at the same time, shouting in unison, their voices echoing through the heavens.

"Speak up!" Ling Hao raised his hand.

"Thank you, commander!" the crowd once again called out.

Then, the first young man in the team quickly ran to Ling Hao and the others, giving a standard military salute.

"Zhou Liang, the city gatekeeper of Ducheng, pays respects to the Generalissimo and Deputy Generalissimo, as well as the five provincial governors!"

"Are the cars ready" Ye Ji asked.

According to the Yingmen's regional division, the capital city belongs to the North District, so this can be considered her territory.

Zhou Liang was her subordinate, a superintendent. He was the first responsible person of Yǐngmén in the capital city.

"Upon the magistrate's inquiry, Zhou Liang replied with utmost seriousness: 'Everything has been prepared as instructed!'"

"Big brother, where shall we go first" Ye Ji then looked at Ling Hao and asked.

"Let's go to the cinema first!" Ling Hao replied.

"Good!" Yejie nodded.

Five minutes later, a convoy of vehicles set off from the airport towards the Yingmen Base in the capital city.

"Brother, who do you think will be the first to 'greet' us" Zhui Hun asked Ling Hao from inside the extended SUV.

"That's a no-brainer, they must all be from the Department of Health!" Before Ling Hao could respond, the Judge spoke.

"Big brother came to the capital, they have to be fully alert! I bet they haven't slept well these past few days!"

The All-City Guard, as the name suggests, is a special institution responsible for the safety of the capital city.

Like the Special Patrol Division, although its members are all part of the military's編製 (bīndìng - organizational structure), they are not under the jurisdiction of the War Department and report directly to higher authorities.

Below the Ministry of Public Security, there is another permanent institution called the Forbidden Army, which is specifically responsible for the security and defense of the capital area.

Although both belong to the Ministry of War, the Imperial Guard because of its special duties, its head generally does not have to report to the Ministry of War.

"Judge, congratulations, you got it right!" At this time, Canglang's eyes narrowed slightly as he stared in the direction of the traffic and spoke softly.

“This wasn't meant for Big Brother to enter the city!” Zhuishen looked around, his voice laced with anger.

Ling Hao and a few others also saw hundreds of meters away, a row of SUVs with flashing warning lights parked on the side of the road, stretching as far as the eye could see. There must be at least over a hundred of them.

Four burly men stood beside each vehicle, their faces grim and expressions tense. Their eyes were fixed intently on the convoy of vehicles entering from the Shadow Gate.

Four men stood in front of the first car, ranging in age from thirty to fifty. One could tell from their auras that they were all above the level of a war god.

The oldest man among them was already at the early stage of Warlord!

"Hmph, even the Imperial Guard has arrived. They really do think highly of Big Brother," Ye Ji's eyes narrowed as well, a chill emanating from her involuntarily.

"This bunch of bastards!" The judge roared, "The great king of the Western Territories enters the capital city and is intercepted halfway They're courting death!"

"Several years ago, I came to the capital city with the former sect leader and encountered a similar situation." Yuan Hua frowned slightly.

"They only brought ten people at first, and later took me and the gatekeeper to the guardhouse. They never let us out of the government office from beginning to end."

"Unexpectedly, three years later, they staged the same act again!"

"Heh heh, is that so" Ling Hao smiled faintly.

"Big brother, how do we handle this" Han Yue's face was covered in frost as she turned to look at Ling Hao.

"What if we five go down and take them out directly"lang spoke in a deep voice. "Matters concerning the Shadow Gate, do they need to be reported to you""Azure Wolf, I advise you to lay low. Otherwise, if something happens, even your superior won't be a...
