Grand Knight Passive Skills System

The Great General's name was Bai Cheng, and he was Bai Lang's father. At this moment, he was standing in the middle of the crowd with a solemn expression, constantly giving orders.    

    

Under his command, everyone in the crowd started moving. One by one, they led a group of elite guards and left.    

    

At this time, the shaking in the city had not yet ended, the earth was still shaking. However, everyone present was highly skilled in martial arts, so they would not lose their balance because of the tremors.    

    

At this moment, Yu Yue's shoulder was lightly patted.    

    

He turned around and saw a woman dressed in black. She had her face covered. Only Shangguan Zhitao would wear this kind of attire.    

    

"How is it?" Yu Yue asked.    

    

Shangguan Zhitao said, "Just as we guessed... Emperor Ansel's remains have been opened."    

    

Although there was a prediction, Yu Yue was still a little surprised when he heard that his guess had been confirmed.    

    

"It has already been opened? Can we enter?"    

    

"I don't know the exact situation, but the Great General is currently mobilizing troops and generals to maintain the security of the Imperial City."    

    

When such a major event occurred, the Imperial City would naturally be thrown into chaos. As a Great General, maintaining the security of the city was also one of his duties.    

    

Bai Lang was also by the Great General's side. He saw Yu Yue and said something to the Great General. Then, he walked over to Yu Yue.    

    

"Yu Yue, what happened just now?" He looked at Yu Yue with concern.    

    

Luo Qiangzhuang's face appeared in his mind. The "something happened to Bai Yuqing" he said suddenly echoed in his mind.    

    

Yu Yue dispelled these chaotic thoughts.    

    

It had to be said that Luo Qiangzhuang's words had given him a lot of trouble. Although reason told him that he couldn't believe what Luo Qiangzhuang had said, it still made him doubt his words. Could it be that... something really happened to Bai Yuqing?    

    

He hoped that this was only Luo Qiangzhuang's mouth full of nonsense.    

    

Originally, after Yu Yue was prepared to resolve the Imperial City, he was prepared to immediately go back to his hometown to find Bai Yuqing, but now he was even more determined on this idea.    

    

No matter what happened after that, after the matter came to an end, he must immediately go back to his hometown to find Bai Yuqing.    

    

Right now, the most important thing was to resolve the matter of the Imperial City.    

    

Putting all the distracting thoughts aside, Yu Yue replied, "Just a little matter... What kind of situation is it now? Has the entrance to Emperor Ansel's remains been opened?"    

    

Bai Lang nodded and said with a serious face: "Emperor Ansel's remains have not been opened yet. This is just the warm-up before it is opened. We are planning to go to the entrance together. Do you want to go with us?"    

    

"Of course."    

    

For the security of the Imperial City, after Yu Yue came, the general commanded for another five minutes before he finally finished setting up the guards.    

    

The original courtyard was filled with guards, but now there were only three teams left, about three hundred of them.    

    

However, their equipment was of the highest quality. Standing there, they exuded a murderous aura. One look and one could tell that they were not easy to deal with.    

    

The Great General glanced at the remaining people in the courtyard. Most of them were the military experts from different regions who had rushed over for Emperor Ansel.    

    

Their armor was shiny, and they were ready to fight.    

    

With the Great General's order, the men in the courtyard started to move at the same time. The guards who stayed behind were in charge of opening the way, and the rest of the officers were in the middle. They were the main force to enter the ruins.    

    

Bai Lang said to Ace, Ellie, Yu Yue and Shangguan Zhitao, who were beside him, "Let's go."    

    

They walked at the very end of the line.    

    

After they left the mansion, this group, which was led by hundreds of elites, became an arrow.    

    

It was still chaotic outside. The panicked people were like ants moving on the street, and this team was like cutting tofu. They easily created a path through the crowd and quickly rushed towards their destination.    

    

Yu Yue asked, "Where is the remains opening?"    

    

"The Imperial Palace." Bai Lang replied.    

    

The General's Residence was not far from the Imperial Palace. A group of people quickly arrived around the Imperial Palace.    

    

There were already quite a number of people surrounding this place.    

    

There were many guards outside the palace building a human-shaped line of defense, blocking all of these people outside.    

    

However, there were also many people who could pass through the line of defense and enter the palace through the permission of the guards.    

    

Looking at the people surrounding the three floors, Yu Yue was very curious as to what they were doing.    

    

He could only hear someone shouting from the crowd.    

    

"Your Carol's imperial family is so sinister! Emperor Ansel's inheritance is the common treasure of the entire continent, how can you take it all for yourself!"    

    

"That's right, open the defensive line and let us in!"    

    

"If you really want to take it all for yourself, then don't blame us for being impolite! Look at how many of us there are. If we start a rebellion, your Carol won't be able to defend against it!"    

    

At this moment, a crisp sound of a saber and a sword rang out.    

    

In the next moment, the man who had made the declaration of rebellion just now had his head separated from his body.    

    

Blood splattered three meters away.    

    

That person's body fell to the ground dejectedly.    

    

The surrounding people looked at him, their eyes filled with shock.    

    

The one who attacked just now was a man in full armor standing at the front of the line of defense.    

    

Through the standard of the armor, it could be seen that his position was definitely not low, and his strength was similarly powerful.    

    

He did not even look at the dead person on the ground, and used his cold eyes to look at the people around him.    

    

"Don't slander our Carol Kingdom. We don't want to monopolize the remains, but we know our own limitations. We know that with our strength, we won't be able to obtain the last treasure alone, so we sincerely invite all of you to join us. Not allowing you all to enter, it's purely for your own good, with your strength... Even if you enter the ruins, you will only be courting death. We'll only let the strong pass through this line of defense. Let me tell you, all the strong people on the continent have agreed to this contract. Going against us is going against these major powers. If their strength is not as high as mine, Don't make a fool of yourself here!"    

    

Yu Yue finally understood. It turned out that this line of defense wasn't set up to monopolize the remains, but to separate the strong and the weak.    

    

Although this was a bit of a dictatorship, it was very reasonable. The dangers of the Carol remains were unpredictable. These weak people wouldn't be able to provide any help, and might even cause great trouble.    

    

Of course, there was also a layer of thought in the plan - the major powers didn't want these weak people to have the chance to obtain treasures, and wanted to divide the treasures amongst themselves.    

    

After the captain of the guards said those words, the people didn't pay any attention to him, but continued to curse. However, none of them dared to say anything violent, and only condemned the Carol Kingdom for being unjust.    

    

For example, there was a captain level guard every few meters. With their strength, they easily filtered out those who were not qualified to pass.    

    

Naturally, the Great General's line of work would not be hindered at all. The line of defense separated into an entrance, and a group of people quickly walked in.
