Legend of the Heavenly God
Ch. 194 ~ Zhongnan City


Previously, Tan Hao had deliberately connected the dimension with the forest area not far from the city to avoid problems if anyone saw it.


Han Xue no longer asked anything, now she was silent and just followed Tan Hao who now walked first.


It didn't take long for them to arrive in front of the city gate of the outer area. The hanging plaque reads Zhongnan City.


Many of the merchants or ordinary travelers were outside the gate to wait for the turn of the examination before being allowed to enter by the guard.


Although there are two checkpoints but because of the many visitors make the line of people elongated.


Zhongnan City was classified as a big city despite its territory close to the border between the Dragon Continent, although still less than Shuning City but the economy and development in this city is one step ahead of other cities under the rule of the Shio Kingdom.


The important role of the nobles and the ruling extended families in it that made this city so prosperous, there was no one lack of anything. The natives of this city also no one ended up being slaves, they all hired people from outside the city and the surrounding villages.


The city wall is seen standing firm, not too high but every certain distance there is one guard who stands on the wall. They're the city's security forces under the mayor's orders.


The red flag that read Zhongnan fluttering right above the examination site, Tan Hao observed everything full of high precision even though he was relaxed as if indifferent to all of it.


There were four rows that extended while Tan Hao was in the second row in contrast to Lan Lihua and Han Xue who were in the third row.


The atmosphere was quite boisterous filled with various discussions with each other, they all seemed to laugh occasionally in the conversation. According to Tan Hao, it was proof that the city situation was safe.


'This Noble Du Tianxing how influential was it within the city? I wonder how many nobles inhabit this city...! I don't think it's possible if there's no movement behind the scenes, the city is magnificent and has great potential. No matter how good the nobles are, it is impossible to do good without a purpose!' Tan Hao loomed while his gaze was directed into the gate that little activity could see inside.


Several times there was a small commotion when there were people who did not pass the examination. Tan Hao smiled faintly as the security guards swiftly dealt with it. That makes the queue not delayed.


Not long after, Tan Hao's turn was to be examined and questioned, while Lan Lihua and Han Xue seemed to have no turn.


"Where's your Token?" ask one of the inspectors sitting facing the table with a pile of paper.


Tan Hao looked as if he was confused when the officer asked, "What kind of token? I don't have it...?"


"Oh, ordinary people apparently! What is your name, origin and needs? How many days do you need?"


The checker who had a thin, dry stature looked at Tan Hao so cynically, it seemed that he was underestimating.


'Good clothes, looks are also decent but unfortunately ordinary people. Why lately there are so many people who look like warriors and nobles. Cih ... Lack of work, ' the check officer squinted at seeing Tan Hao.


At the same time, Tan Hao himself smiled faintly. Somehow he seemed to be able to read what the officer was thinking, 'If I use the Golden Dragon Token from the Gold Tower Association, it is afraid of a big commotion here. Ah, never mind ... So an ordinary person once in a while is not too bad either, right!'


"Tan Hao, from Foshan City. Just wanted to buy a few horses. It might take two days,"


The officer observed Tan Hao from top to bottom in one glance before making a gesture like writing.


"Alright, use your time well! Don't do anything that troubles you, yourself,"


"Next ...!"


Tan Hao smiled as he got a suggestion from the guard before stepping into the outer city gate.


"Get out of the way...! Don't block Young Master Jun Mehui's path!"


A horseman holding a sword in his right hand cried out loudly while shaking off the queue. Behind it appears followed by a horse carriage and there is a circle-shaped emblem inscribed with Jun.


"Eh, it's not that arrogant Mehui from the Jun Family!"


"Yes, I heard that he just came home from hunting a demon beast in the forest of the Dragon Continent! Look at that arrogance,"


"Gst ... Keep your voice down if you still want to have a head! Don't offend him, he's already at the peak level of the Wind Hermit. After all, the position of the Jun Family was quite influential in this area outside Zhongnan city,"


Some people whispered to each other, their gazes looking very unfriendly. And again, the horse carriage guard was rude, not even respecting a elderly man from among ordinary citizens who walked using a wooden stick.


Lan Lihua was infuriated by the treatment of one of the guards who kicked the old man from the horse until he slammed into the ground.


Without a second thought, Lan Lihua approached the old man who had fallen right in front of the horse carriage.


"Grandfather is okay? Careful cake, let me help grandfather to stand up," Lan Lihua lowered her posture while holding both shoulders of the old man.


It was clear what Lan Lihua did attracted the attention of many people including the examination officers. They were as surprised as Lan Lihua's bravery that seemed to ignore the owner of the horse carriage.


Tan Hao smiled wryly at Lan Lihua's actions while shaking his head, "Hua'er...! Hehe what other trouble did you give me? Can't be a submissive girl! Uhh ...!"


Little talk soon filled the place, they were all talking about the same thing. On the other hand, Han Xue was silent while bowing her head.


"Bad! How dare you oppose Young Master Jun Mehui! Women do not know in profit ... You guys, clean up these two garbage guys!" shouted the bodyguard who kicked the old man while brandishing the sword commanding his subordinates.


The five similarly dressed bodyguards who were around the horse carriage moved swiftly to surround Lan Lihua while unsheathing their spears.


"Stop...!" he shouted at someone from the horse-drawn carriage before he got out.


The bodyguards who had been willing to blow their spears, stopped at the same time as only a few distances from the face of Lan Lihua's face stared intently.


"What are you doing to such a sweet girl...! Lower your weapons" the man's known command is Jun Mehui.


The bodyguards immediately pulled back their weapons then acted upright, while Jun Mehui walked over to Lan Lihua.


"Let's get our grandfather out of here...!" lan Lihua said as she helped the old man stand up and then swept him away to leave the place.


"Hey ... Where you going? I saved you, can you give me face? Meet, I'm Jun Mehui. The Jun Family's main heir in Zhongnan City's outer area."


Jun Mehui introduced himself, but neither his gestures nor his hands seemed to show arrogance while his facial expression was clearly arrogant.


Lan Lihua did not stop her steps which still continued to help the old man balance the body, "I'm not interested in you,"


"You?!" geram Jun Mehui was shocked cynically.


Lan Lihua had actually managed to take the attention of everyone present in that place with her attitude and actions. More courage in answering.
