I have been a saint in the world for three thousand years

Inherited the business for thirty years.

After struggling for many years, the only remaining state of the Daxuan Dynasty was finally annexed by the demon clan.

Those remnants of Daxuan who were struggling to survive in despair were not spared and became blood food in the mouths of the demons.

At this point, the Daxuan Dynasty, which had a long history, was submerged under the rolling wheels of history and became a thing of the past.

...

JiZhou.

Jieai City.

It is located at the throat of the border of the Yuan Dynasty and is closely connected with the territory of the Daxuan Dynasty.

There was a time when trade between the two great dynasties was frequent, and this city was a prosperous place with heavy traffic and hustle and bustle.

However, as the Daxuan Dynasty gradually declined and its territory was occupied by the demon clan, this small border town also fell into decline.

Today, this place has been completely taken over by the Yuan Dynasty army and has become the front line in the fight against the demon tribe entrenched in the territory of the Daxuan Dynasty.

In the military camp.

"Damn it, why should the credit go to that bastard instead of all of us soldiers?!"

A soldier angrily tore off his armor and threw it to the ground, cursing.

"We were the ones charging in the front, but that bastard was just standing in the back without even moving an inch, yet he was able to take all the credit?!"

The soldier became angrier the more he thought about it. His cheeks were puffed up and his eyes were full of anger.

"Okay, it's because they have a good father and we don't."

Another soldier sneered indifferently, as if he was already accustomed to this kind of unfairness.

The soldier from before became even more angry upon hearing this.

"If it weren't for Brother Yan's help, I'm afraid we would have been buried in the monster's belly long ago!"

"If something goes wrong, that guy will definitely be punished by the general, and I'm afraid even his life will be in danger!"

At this time, he turned his gaze to a young man who was sharpening a knife.

"Brother Yan, can you really swallow this?"

Yan Xiu did not look up when he heard this, but continued to sharpen the weapon in his hand.

"It is a blessing to be alive, how can I dare to hope to make a contribution."

After leaving Qianzhou, Yan Xiu embarked on a leisurely journey eastward and arrived in Jeju.

As for the matter of the evil spirit, he had already asked Qing'er and others to investigate.

I believe that with their abilities, handling this small matter will be no problem.

One of the reasons why Yan Xiu came to Jeju was that he wanted to see to what extent the evil had wreaked havoc.

So he quietly transformed himself into an inconspicuous soldier and mingled among the army.

A few days ago, the camp where Yan Xiu was located received an order from the general to lead a team to fight against the monsters.

However, the battalion commander, in order to gain merit, rushed forward recklessly, which put the entire team into an extremely dangerous situation.

At the critical moment, Yan Xiu stepped forward and turned the tide with his own strength.

Not only did he save everyone, he also rushed into the monster's lair with great force and wiped it out in one fell swoop.

Logically speaking, such a great achievement should be credited to Yan Xiu.

However, the battalion commander unreasonably took all the credit for himself.

He did not mention a single word about his own unauthorized actions and violation of military orders, as if nothing had ever happened.

"Humph, if I had the cultivation level of Primordial Realm, I would definitely make this guy pay for it!"

The soldier, who was full of dissatisfaction, vented a few words and then left.

"Don't mind me, Brother Yan. Xiao Qi is always outspoken. Whenever he feels indignant about something, he will chase after people and ask for an explanation."

A soldier with a nonchalant look on his face came over and laughed at Yan Xiu.

Yan Xiu held the sharp blade and washed it carefully with clear spring water. The tip of the blade flashed a cold light in the sunlight.

"It doesn't matter."

He spoke in a calm and composed tone.

Not long after, Xiao Qi came back in a hurry, his face full of anxiety and excitement.

"Brother Yan, come quickly!"

He looked excited and shouted at Yan Xiu.

"Why is it in such a hurry?"

Yan Xiu sheathed the cleaned weapon safely and asked calmly.

Xiao Qi was impatient, and seeing Yan Xiu looking so relaxed, he stepped forward and pulled Yan Xiu's arm without saying anything, his eagerness evident in his words.

"General Chang is here!"

He dragged Yan Xiu towards the camp gate while talking.

"I just heard someone say that someone reported the absence of that fellow to the general."

There was a hint of satisfaction in Xiao Qi's tone, a sense of revenge.

"General Chang was furious when he found out. He immediately dismissed the guy and sent him back to Beijing!"

As he said this, he winked at Yan Xiu.

"I also saw General Chang's personal guard holding the battalion commander's armor. If nothing unexpected happens, it must be you!"

After a while, the two of them were standing in front of a magnificent tent.

Just as Xiao Qi was about to step forward, he saw a burly guard coming out.

When he saw the two of them, his brows furrowed slightly and he looked at them sharply.

"Who are you two and why are you here?"

Upon hearing this, Xiao Qi immediately bowed respectfully.

"I am General Qi Yuan. This is Yan Xiu. I have come to pay a special visit to General Chang!"

When the guard heard Yan Xiu's name, his expression eased a little.

He looked Yan Xiu up and down and said calmly, "Are you Yan Xiu?"

Upon hearing this, Yan Xiu nodded slightly, neither humble nor arrogant.

"You've come just in time. It saves me the trouble of looking for you. Come in."

The guard stepped aside to make way for Yan Xiu and motioned for him to go in.

Yan Xiu clasped his fists and bowed, then strode into the tent with his head held high.

Qi Yuan tried to follow them in, but was stopped by the guards.

"Why are you joining in the fun? The general didn't summon you!"

Inside the account.

Several generals gathered around the sand table, discussing something non-stop, and did not even notice Yan Xiu's arrival.

Yan Xiu's gaze passed through the crowd and finally stopped on the back of a tall figure.

"I, General Yan Xiu, greet General Chang."

The words fell like a stone dropped into still water.

The generals who were talking around suddenly fell silent and looked up.

General Chang turned around upon hearing the voice, and looked Yan Xiu up and down with his tiger eyes, and finally a hint of praise flashed in his gaze.

"You've come just in time. Do you know why I summoned you here?"

"If my guess is correct, I will be promoted."

Yan Xiu looked relaxed, and his humorous remarks did not show any fear in front of someone in a higher position, but instead made him seem more free and easy.

After hearing this, General Chang laughed even louder, and his deep voice echoed in the tent.

"Good boy, I like it very much!"

"Come, put on that armor and let me see it."

He waved his hand heroically, pointing at the battalion commander Kai who was standing quietly aside.

Yan Xiu didn't ask any more questions and put them on quickly.

The armor is hammered with black-scale iron, with bronze animal-head ornaments inlaid with rubies, majesty on the shoulders and a chest emblem reflecting the sun.

The arm guards and leg armor were intricately carved and fitted perfectly to protect Yan Xiu, like a god of war descending to earth.

General Chang looked at Yan Xiu carefully, nodded with approval in his eyes.

"A few days ago, Yuan Zilong's resistance to the army put the entire army in danger. I have dismissed that bastard and sent him back to the capital.

From today on, the important task of battalion commander will be handed over to you!"

"I will follow your orders and live up to your trust!"

Yan Xiu responded loudly, clasped his fists and saluted, with a firm look and a tone that was neither humble nor arrogant.
