Mountain Patrol Military Officer-Chapter 891 - 605: Breaking Through the Ninth Mountain (Part 2)

Chapter 891: Chapter 605: Breaking Through the Ninth Mountain (Part 2)
As for beneath the pavilion, Chen Yuan enjoyed his leisure, having free labor eager to do his work, why not? He was preparing to expand more space in the courtyard, literally expanding space, which wasn’t difficult for him.
He planned to plant some vegetables, cultivate some flowers, ...
Meanwhile, eight thousand miles away in Jingguan City, several fast horses galloped toward Yunding Mountain.
"Hyah"
"Hyah"
"Hyah"
Under the blazing sun, the official road at the foot of the mountain was filled with flying dust. Five fast horses shot like arrows, their hooves shattering the forest’s tranquility, scaring birds into fluttering into the sky.
Leading the way was a colorful-clothed woman, a silver hairpin bell on her hair jingling with the horse’s bump.
Her beautiful brows knitted up, eyes carried a coldness, and the reins in her hands urged the horse urgently. Were it not for the sealing of Yunding Mountain, the prohibition activated, she would have broken through into the mountain.
On the left, a seductive woman in a purple split gauze dress, her lips tightly pressed, her figure as fiery as a flame.
On the right, a young man in white long sleeves, his clothes soaked in mud from horse hooves, the previously neat hairband messily stuck to his sweat-drenched forehead, yet the burning fire in his eyes was even more scorching than the hot sun above.
Behind them, two more horses followed.
The horse hoof’s rapid rhythm resembled drums, every sound striking the tense air, echoing the official road leading to Yunding Mountain.
The fast horses galloped up the mountain.
Before long, several shouts erupted from within the mountain.
"Who goes there?"
"Military land, trespassers will be killed without mercy!"
Suddenly, two beams of light burst out from the forest on either side of the official road ahead, then two golden-armored giants sprang forth, five or six zhang tall, brandishing bronze long spears, blocking the road with a crossed motion as dust flew.
"Neigh"
The riders pulled the reins abruptly, the fast horses neighed in long cries, their hooves raised high, making anxious noises.
"I am Qin Rushuang, the eldest granddaughter of the Crown Prince’s Tutor, make way! I have urgent matters and have been ordered into the mountain!"
Qin Rushuang coldly reprimanded, taking the lead.
The golden-eyed giants exchanged a faint look of surprise,
"Do you have official documents?"
Qin Rushuang frowned but didn’t answer.
"This is an exceptional period, the whole overseer is under sealing, without official documents, no one is allowed to enter or exit at will; this is the decree from Lord State Preceptor." The golden-armored giant spoke in a dull tone upon seeing this.
Just then, a sharp crack split the air.
A woman’s voice sharply scolded, "Get lost, treating chicken feathers like command arrows!"
As she spoke, a whip shadow lashed forward, sweeping away the two obstructing long spears, hurling the two golden-armored giants aside.
"I am Dugu Jialuo, don’t take it up with me!"
"Let’s go!"
The bold and unrestrained voice belonged to the daughter of the Unbeatable Marquis.
Without a second thought, she whipped the obstructors aside, then promptly rode her horse into the mountain.
Qin Rushuang and the others quickly followed.
The next moment, a sharp whistle echoed from the forest below.
Immediately, streaks of light swiftly descended from all directions.
Around them, tall and strong golden-armored soldiers, clad in heavy armor, exuding a formidable aura, armed with swords and pikes, masked and surrounded the five fast horses.
This was the Heavenly Army executing the perimeter patrol around Yunding Mountain.
Among them, a golden-armored commander, larger in stature and of imposing presence, possessing Miyamoto’s Energy Mechanism, initially had a murderous glare, but upon seeing the two women in the front row, he showed some surprise.
"Miss Dugu!"
"Miss Qin!"
"You two, of honored status, why have you come to a place like Jingguan instead of staying in the Divine Capital, and brought people into the mountain?"
"Do the Marquis and the Lord Grand Tutor know?"
"Enough with the nonsense, we need to go to the Ninth Mountain, why haven’t you let us pass!" Dugu Jialuo brandished her whip boldly.
Upon hearing the mention of the Ninth Mountain, the golden-armored commander, initially thinking the two women were acting spoiled, became serious.
No choice, if the two women were indeed being capricious, he had ways to send them back, after all, this was now a military ground, with the current State Preceptor overseeing, no wild acts could be tolerated.
However, once it involved the Ninth Mountain, handling it would be tricky; he dared not make arbitrary decisions. If anything went wrong, who would bear the responsibility?
After thinking it over, the commander said, "You can enter the mountain, but someone must inform the Ninth Mountain to see if there’s an issue before escorting everyone through, and it must be ed..."
"You are really troublesome, we have urgent matters that cannot be delayed!" Dugu Jialuo snapped her whip.
"Miss Dugu, please do not make things difficult for everyone; not long ago, there was a formidable enemy blocking our local Demon Suppression General from becoming a Saint, surely you’ve heard of it. Now the overseers are constantly vigilant, not daring the slightest mistake; these are the rules!"
The golden-armored commander frowned, not backing down.
Hearing this, Dugu Jialuo knew it was hard to retaliate; she had indeed heard of this affair, and if she continued, it would be sheer unreasonable disruption.
However...
Just then, Qin Rushuang’s voice rang out.
"Will this do?"
"This token was granted to me by Lord Chen, a pass token for the Ninth Mountain!"
At that moment, Qin Rushuang revealed a silver token in her hand.
The front engraved with the character "Chen"!
A unique aura flowed over it, faintly like a misty abyss.
Seeing this token, the golden-armored commander instantly recognized the presence of the patrol angel on this token.
The token was genuine!
Seeing this, he no longer dared to speak more, saluted the token, then waved his hand,
"Let them pass!"
"Send the order down!"
Instantly, the surrounding golden armors parted.
Qin Rushuang immediately put away the token, saluted the golden-armored commander, "Thank you!"
Then she snapped her reins, riding her horse, shouting a command, and led her people into the mountain.
Afterward, the five proceeded without hindrance, passing through one checkpoint after another.
Qin Rushuang and her companions sped to the foot of the Ninth Mountain’s camp!
There, the camp guards immediately ed in.
Yun Tiansheng, Liu Qing, and others received the news and greeted them promptly.
The camp opened wide, as Qin Rushuang and her group dismounted, Yun Tiansheng, three of the Ninth Mountain’s swift riders came to meet them in quick steps!
"Greetings to Miss Qin, Miss Galuo, Sect Leader An..."
Yun Tiansheng saluted the visitors; these guests were old acquaintances of their Ninth Mountain.
They had once fought side by side, battling demons on the southern Demon Battlefield.
Later, a few of them passed through the Overseers’ Heavenly Prison when they were persecuted by the court last year and saved their lives.
Their connection needs no elaboration.
However, Yun Tiansheng, Liu Qing, and the three noticed the different expressions on the visitors’ faces while returning the greeting.
The warm tone turned into suspicion and doubt.
The three exchanged a glance, something happened?
Yun Tiansheng furrowed his brow and inquired with Qin Rushuang,
"Miss Qin, what brings you now with everyone to our Ninth Mountain? Has something happened?"
As he said this, his gaze shifted, landing on the white-robed man with a gold collar, covered in mud, a dusty young man.
"Why didn’t Senior Qing Yangzi come this time, but Brother Ji came alone, looking so weathered?"
The youth Yun Tiansheng’s gaze landed on was Ji Wuming, the chief disciple of Qing Yangzi, who also fought together once, but judging by his appearance, he had undoubtedly undergone some rush. Moreover, the anxiety and bloodshot eyes couldn’t be concealed.
Thus, he dared to conclude something must have happened.
Now, Qin Rushuang began,
"This started a few days ago when I returned from the Divine Capital, sent news inviting old comrades in arms to gather in Jingguan City, others replied, but I delayed receiving any word from Thunder Mountain’s Taoist Yuan, so I asked nearby Taoist Li to look for him...."
Qin Rushuang recounted the sequence of events.
"Now, the entire Thunder Mountain is missing, Fulong Temple’s Taoist Li, who went to find him, and Taoist Qing Yangzi, who was to accompany him, one is missing, one sent a message two days ago."
"Ji Shaohua, you explain!"
Ji Wuming hurriedly spoke: "Two days ago, the Fulong Temple’s Taoist Li returned to Shu Mountain, asking if my master had come back, then we realized my master went missing while looking for Senior Yuan of Thunder Mountain with Taoist Li along the way, they encountered enemies at Thunder Mountain... Senior instructed me to hurry to Jingguan City with news, while our Shu Mountain Sword Sect and Senior Li searched everywhere for my master!"
"Entering the mountain is possible
