Ho Chen landed a bit far in front of the entrance of Anming city, demi did not arouse suspicion of Ho Chen taking off his mask but covered half his face with a cloth and walked towards the four people guarding the entrance.
"Stop sir! Where are you going?." Ask one of the guards politely.
"Uhuk! Uhuk! Uhuk! My guard master only wants to take my things left inside,! Uhuk! Uhuk!." Ho Chen pretended to be one of the Anming residents who wanted to evacuate and cough so that in the city was sick.
The guards watched Ho Chen from top to bottom, they were sure Ho Chen was very young, they could not suspect Ho Chen either, as they did not know the entire population of Anming city.
"Try showing me your identification!." One of the guards with a fierce face came forward and asked Ho Chen for identification.
Ho Chen clearly did not have any identification marks as a resident of the city, which he had the identification marks of the Halilintar Hill sect and several other sects.
Ho Chen coughed again then fumbled his clothes, as if looking for a sign of knowing him.
"What are you saying! just let him through, have you not slept since he coughed continuously, if he let it get worse." Said one of the guards then turned to look at Ho Chen.
"Please go in and grab your leftover items, if you have! Hurry up and catch up with the rest of the population, and don't forget to check your health later." Said the guard who defended Ho Chen with a very friendly talk.
"Thank you very much, sir,! Uhuk.! I will remember your advice. Uhuk! Uhuk!."
Ho Chen went inside and continued acting with his coughs.
Ho Chen turned his head back after believing the guards had not noticed him, he immediately walked as fast as he could, so as not to get any more attention from the guards.
Ho Chen looked around, the city that was usually very rame and many people were passing by, now like a dead city that was already uninhabited.
"I'd better stay in one of those empty houses." Ho Chen murmured and looked for a small house to stay in.
***
The sects closest to Anming city were the Thunder Hill sect and the Gold Star sect.
Those who first arrived in Anming city after getting a letter from the emperor sent directly by the generals.
It only took 5 days for them to arrive at Anming City and they immediately set up camp outside Anming city.
Qian Shin was walking towards the palace with Kang Jian, the two sect heads were picked up by some palace guards to come see the Emperor.
"If the news is true, I'm sure the battle this time will definitely be bigger than before." Said Qian Shin with a slightly lethargic face.
Kang Jian only let out a long sigh and spoke nothing, the one on his mind at the moment was Ho Chen.
Ever since hearing the news of Ho Chen's death, Kang Jian had only held onto his belief that Ho Chen was still alive.
But for almost seven months he had not heard any news, already some people were sent to investigate the news, but did not find any results.
"Brother Jian! What are you thinking?."
Kang Jian instantly regained his senses from his daydream when Qian Shin asked him. "Nothing! I'm just looking for a strategy, how to deal with the demon army later." Kang Jian replied.
"If elder Feng knew, I'm sure he would have helped out immediately as well as avenged those demons for the death of his disciple." Qian Shin said in a slightly hesitant voice as he was not sure Feng Ying heard this news.
"He must have come to help even without a letter from the Emperor!." Said Kang Jian.
While on the way they saw people walking towards a small house not far from where they were walking, they could not see the person's face because his face was covered by cloth.
"Why are there still people here? Didn't the Emperor order the inhabitants to evacuate!." Ask Qian Shin.
"Of course, there may still be someone who hasn't left besides that person." Said Kang Jian.
"I'm going there first! Do you want to come?." Qian Shin said then walked over to the small house without waiting for an answer from Kang Jian.
Some of the soldiers only looked at each other while Kang Jian shook his head and sighed softly then caught up with Qian Shin who he thought was just doing a waste of time.
"Excuse me sir! Excuse me!." Qian Shin knocked on the door while calling the person inside.
Ho Chen who was inside immediately closed back half his face then opened the door.
"Sorry, who are you looking for?." Ho Chen asked, but his gaze was fixed on the newly arrived Kang Jian.
"May he not recognize me!." Inner Ho Chen was worried that Kang Jian could recognize his voice.
Qian Shin looked at Ho Chen from top to bottom then nodded. "Worthy of you being here, are you deliberately waiting for the war here?."
Qian Shin's question made Ho Chen uneasy, should Qian Shin not recognize her considering she had only met once at the Wind Pillar meeting.
"What do you mean, I don't understand." Said Ho Chen with a bit of nervousness.
"You still want to dodge? I know you are a swordsman, but you should also know that the enemy that will attack the palace is no match for a warrior like you, if you are already at the Sky Level maybe you can be useful, you can be useful, but you're still at Earth Level, so I suggest that you leave here before the war starts, before you regret it." Said Qian Shin.
Ho Chen breathed a sigh of relief after hearing Qian Shin's words then answered him. "Thank you for the senior's advice and warning, I'll consider it." Said Ho Chen.
"Wait a minute!." Kang Jian immediately interrupted the conversation of the two of them.
"What's brother Jian?." Asked the shocked Qian Shin.
Kang Jian watched Ho Chen more thoroughly, from top to bottom. "Looks like your voice sounds like someone I know!." Said Kang Jian.
"There have been many who have said that to me, even my neighbors say my voice is similar to that of the poet of the Liu empire." Ho Chen replied with a soft laugh, but his heart started to fidget.
Qian Shin laughed at Ho Chen's words and then spoke to Kang Jian. "You're just there-there's brother Jian, that guy's voice is a lot alike! Your voice is like the voice I know." Said Qian Shin who was still laughing.
Kang Jian smiled awkwardly then asked. "Who does my voice look like?." Ask Kang Jian.
"If you hear well your voice is almost the same as the sound of a male buffalo." Said Qian Shin then burst into laughter.
Kang Jian folded his face then turned and said. "Let's go to the palace immediately." Said Kang Jian then stepped away leaving Qian Shin, but his mind was still curious as he indeed felt familiar with Ho Chen's voice wearing the cover of half his face.
Qian Shin immediately caught up with her, while the soldier who was waiting for them patiently directly walked in front of Kang Jian and Qian Shin.
Ho Chen continued to look at them then intended to go inside but suddenly
Jdeaarr!!!
The sound of a not-so-large explosion rang out from outside the City, even black smoke was also starting to be seen.
