Master of the Sky

After Guo Ziyi's two biological sons died in battle, they took in two foster sons who had outstanding battle strategies and schemes. As the great marshal of the army of the world, he entered the Changyang City. As for the Fenyang City, he handed it over to his two foster sons to take care of.    

    

General Guo Qian and General Guo Long were both in control of half of the military power in the Fenyang Manor, so Guo Ziyi could be at ease with them. They were very loyal to Guo Ziyi, and would visit the Changyang City personally every year to stay for a few days, to state their military affairs and show their filial piety.    

    

Guo Nan did not have a deep impression of his two uncles. When they went to the Prince Guo's Mansion to stay, Guo Nan always spent time and effort outside and did not socialize with them much.    

    

"Brother Dugu, looks like there's quite a bit of trouble. Guo Qian and Guo Long both carried their troops with dignity, and did not send anyone to welcome me. At that time, they would not listen to my commands either!" Guo Nan sneered.    

    

Dugu Hong nodded her head, and laughed: "Nan Shao, with your methods, I feel like someone is about to suffer."    

    

"The Guo Family Army is my grandfather's Guo Family Army, now that this old man has led his troops to suppress Qin Qiong, he can't care about the matters here, and can only rely on myself."    

    

"Don't forget, there's still Uncle Xiang and I. My strength is not good, but Uncle Xiang is in Li Tangguo, and is invincible. Even if it's Yuan Huan, Master Yuan, Uncle Xiang will be able to win. "    

    

The Uncle Xiang that Dugu Hong spoke of, was the middle-aged man that had once injured Qin Qiong with a single palm strike. Her strength was strong, and her Danyuan Stage was at the fifth level, stronger than Yuan Huan's.    

    

Hearing that, Guo Nan revealed a happy expression: "Uncle Xiang is that powerful?"    

    

"It's nothing. You'll know when you go to Tianwu Academy. Among the younger generation of Young people, the strength of a fifth level Danyuan Stage is not small." Dugu Hong laughed.    

    

Guo Nan was secretly helpless, in his past life, he had roamed the Wucheng Mainland, what had he not seen before?    

    

The group continued to drive, and everyone had some complaints about no one coming to greet them. Some of the more active people vaguely felt that something was wrong.    

    

The fifty li was not too far, it only took half a day.    

    

Fenyang City appeared in Guo Nan's eyes.    

    

He, Dugu Hong and the Uncle Xiang rode on top of the big horses as they walked at the forefront of the group.    

    

The Fenyang City was heavily defended, the city walls were thirty meters high and thick, and the city gates were forged out of fine steel. On the walls, the well-equipped Guo Family stood like a bronze man, looking very powerful.    

    

Seeing the three big words "Fenyang City", Dugu Hong praised with a beaming smile, "Nan Shao, I have heard of your great name for a long time. "This is a super military fort. It would be extremely difficult to attack such a huge city."    

    

"Of course, there are no ordinary citizens in the Fenyang City. All of them are from the Guo Family's army. Old Emperor was afraid of our Guo Family, and it was because of the existence of the Guo Family Army that he was unable to eat or sleep well. " Guo Nan's face revealed a proud look, but, his face quickly darkened, he had already reached the city gate, and after walking a few hundred meters, he would reach the Fenyang City's gate, so how could no one come out to welcome him?    

    

An armored general appeared on top of the wall and shouted towards Guo Nan's major force: "Who are you? This is the Fenyang City, we do not welcome troops from the north, please take a detour! "    

    

In truth, these fifty thousand garrison s were also part of Li Shi's personal guard force that he had gifted to Guo Nan. The flag that they were carrying was the flag of the Royal Family's army. The army from the north was the direct army of the Royal Family.    

    

Hearing the man's words, Guo Nan's face turned cold. He spurred his horse forward, and under the city gates, he looked up at the man, and killing intent appeared in his eyes. He roared: "Open your dog eyes and see clearly, Laozi is the successor to the Fenyang King, Shoulder King with One Word Guo Nan! Laozi orders you to open the gates within the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, otherwise I will cut off your dog head! "    

    

Guo Nan's voice carried a powerful elemental energy, and his words reached out to a few miles away. The soldiers on the city wall all heard his words, and one by one, their gazes fell upon him.    

    

"Young Prince Guo Nan?"    

    

"It's indeed the Young Prince. Fuck, what's going on? Once the Young Prince arrives at the city gates, won't General Qian and General Long come out to welcome him?"    

    

"The Young Prince massacred everything in the Changyang City, assisted Li Shi in ascending the throne, and was bestowed the Shoulder King with One Word's seal. His words, are tantamount to the words of the Kaiser!"    

    

"The Marshal led his troops to attack the Duke of Qin. I had already guessed that the Young Prince would come to take charge of the military, but General Qian and General Long probably wouldn't be willing."    

    

The soldiers discussed in hushed voices.    

    

Hearing Guo Nan's roar, the general's face changed, and he quickly disappeared from the wall.    

    

Guo Nan gave the time for an incense stick to burn for to send him a message.    

    

Guo Nan urged his horse to retreat a hundred meters, sweeping his eyes across the soldiers on the walls and shouted loudly: "The great men of the Guo Family, you guard the Fenyang City, protect the southeast border and no one dares to offend you, your contributions are great! At that moment, there are countless grains, dried meat, and other things on the way to Fenyang City.    

    

"Roar! Roar! Roar! Roar!"    

    

"Welcome, Young Prince!"    

    

"Welcome, Young Prince!"    

    

Cheers and cheers came from the city walls, the soldiers shouted in high spirits, and seeing that scene, Guo Nan smiled coldly.    

    

"It seems that the morale of the Guo Family's troops is still on our side. This was much easier to deal with now. Guo Qian and Guo Long relied on their own troops, but they did not understand. How could they change this old man's unity after spending a few years? The Guo Family Army will forever be the Guo Family Army and not their private army! "    

    

Dugu Hong and Uncle Xiang who were at the back couldn't help but secretly sigh in admiration as they watched Guo Nan's back.    

    

Guo Nan's methods were indeed astonishing. With just a simple sentence, he was able to probe the cause of the military and strengthen his own prestige. It seemed that taking over the military might wouldn't be too difficult.    

    

The sound of gears rolling could be heard as the city gate slowly opened up.    

    

Two Gold Armor General s and hundreds of elite soldiers rode fine horses and charged out.    

    

"Please forgive this lowly general, but I did not know that you would be here. I have been busy with military matters and have been planning for a long time, I hope that you can forgive me!" Guo Qian jumped down from the horse and knelt down with half a knee, his voice rumbling.    

    

"This lowly general is leading the troops in training, all the soldiers in the Fenyang Manor have been withdrawn into the Fenyang City, and have not known beforehand that the Nan Shao has arrived in the Fenyang City. This lowly general knows his wrongs!" Guo Long also dismounted from his horse and knelt on one knee.    

    

A gentle smile appeared on Guo Nan's face. He got down from the horse and helped Guo Qian and the others up, then cupped his fists and said with a smile: "Two uncles, this nephew has followed the order to come here. Grandfather sent troops to attack Daxing City, to let me familiarize myself with military affairs there first. I don't have much experience, so please be kind to my two uncles. "    

    

"Nan Shao, we will naturally do everything we can to support your decisions!"    

    

Guo Qian and Guo Long stated their positions one by one, smiling like flowers.    

    

But their way of addressing Guo Nan was neither the 'Young Prince' that was bestowed with the title of heir to the Fenyang King, nor the 'King Li Tang' that Li Shi had bestowed upon him. Instead, it was the 'Nan Shao' that had the unique habits of a prince within the Changyang City.    

    

Their attitude could clearly be seen.    

    

Guo Nan calmly accepted the address. Under Guo Qian's and Guo Long's lead, the convoy and the fifty thousand garrison s entered the Fenyang City and stayed in the simple and crude living quarters.    

    

The garrison soldiers were extremely dissatisfied. Compared to the Guo Family Army's training grounds and living quarters, what they had was like a refugee camp!    

    

Even Guo Nan's house was extremely dilapidated.    

    

"Brother Dugu, this show of power is really vicious." Guo Nan could not help but sneer when he saw his own residence filled with spiderwebs.    

    

Seeing Guo Nan's expression, Dugu Hong secretly sighed: "Those two guys don't know what's good for them. Offending Guo Nan is more troublesome than offending him."    

    

"Nan Shao, what do you plan to do?"    

    

"Didn't they say they would treat us to dinner tonight? For the last meal, I hope they have a good time. The most important thing was to find a reliable person and ask them who should be killed so as to not leave anything out. The reason for killing, or perhaps an excuse, should also be found. "    

    

After hearing Guo Nan's words, the Uncle Xiang said in a deep voice, "Don't worry Nan Shao. I see that they only have the strength of the ninth level of the Condensing Yuan Stage.
