Chapter 270: Chapter 270: Becoming the Commander-in-Chief

The gigantic golden battleship slowly flew to the front of the Wen Yuan Pavilion, with numerous soldiers standing on top. This super treasure, eight thousand meters long, had many buildings on top, adorned with exquisite decorations and elegant structures. It also had isolation formations to ensure no mutual disturbance.

"Let's go!" the Great Xuan King said.

Taking a step, the Great Xuan King stepped onto the Divine Ship. Everyone glanced at each other and followed suit.

Stepping onto the Divine Ship.

The Great Xuan King looked at everyone and said, "Find your own lodgings. When we arrive at the Great Xuan City, I will inform you."

"Yes!" everyone immediately responded.

Then, the Great Xuan King entered the largest palace.

Meanwhile, the others also began selecting their accommodations.

Zhong Shan didn't rush to choose but observed everyone.

Behind Qi Tianhou was a black-robed man named Ling Feng, according to the information Ah Er had gathered. He was assigned by the Great Xuan King to protect Qi Tianhou, and his cultivation level was at the Emperor Extreme Realm.

Mr. Shui Jing was alone and didn't need bodyguards. His own cultivation was at the Emperor Extreme Realm.

As for Jin Chan, he was alone too. The Great Weitian Dragon Bodhisattva who used to protect him was not by his side.

Zhong Shan sized up these three individuals, and they also looked at him in the same manner.

Qi Tianhou led Ling Feng with a sneer and walked towards a palace in the distance. Jin Chan clasped his hands together, nodded slightly, and walked away.

"Mr. Zhong Shan, please," Mr. Shui Jing immediately said with a smile.

"Mr. Shui Jing, please," Zhong Shan replied.

At this moment, a huge protective barrier suddenly appeared outside the Divine Ship, enveloping it like a giant egg. Slowly rising into the air, once it reached a certain height, it accelerated towards the south, faster and faster. The people on the Divine Ship didn't feel it, but in the eyes of the experts in the Ancient Capital, it soon became just a streak of light.

A streak of light, like a shooting star, vanished in the boundless south.

Meanwhile, on a mountain peak near the Wen Yuan Pavilion, two figures slowly emerged.

"Ah Er, let's go," Princess Qianyou sighed softly.

"Yes, Princess," Ah Er responded.

Forty days later.

The Divine Ship finally came to a slow stop. Ahead was a massive city.

Standing in front of the Divine Ship, everyone could see the majestic city, even more magnificent than the unparalleled city they had seen before. Three huge golden characters floated above the city tower.

Da Xuan City.

Named after the Great Xuan King, this city was situated in the heartland of the Great Luo Heavenly Dynasty, serving as a fortress. From here, all other cities could be fully supplied. It was like unfolding a fan, with Da Xuan City resembling the tail of the fan, and other cities positioned at the tips of the fan bones.

The Divine Ship stopped outside Da Xuan City and entered.

"The Great Xuan King has ordered everyone to enter the Xuan Hall," an official ran over from behind the crowd and announced.

The Xuan Hall was the largest palace on the Divine Ship, where the Great Xuan King resided.

The attendants waited outside while the four hundred selected individuals entered the Xuan Hall.

Inside the Xuan Hall was an extremely spacious chamber.

The two generals waved their hands downwards.

"Woo~~~" A horn-like sound seemed to echo from below, spreading throughout the entire valley and beyond.

Upon hearing the horn, everyone quickly assembled, swiftly organized their formations, splitting into two sides, one on the east and one on the west, delineating the First and Second Battalions.

At the same time, as if summoned by the horn, two thousand huge tigers swiftly ran from all directions of the valley.

"Roar~~~" The tigers roared loudly in unison, splitting into two groups, standing on each side of the two battalions.

A thousand tiger cavalry each?

In front of the two battalions, some soldiers quickly set up two command platforms.

Under Ah's guidance, Zhong Shan flew to the eastern command platform, while Qi Tianhou flew to the western one.

The others all stood below, and only the commanders of the two battalions stood on the command platforms.

Zhong Shan landed on the command platform and immediately sat down, instructing the general who had greeted him earlier to provide detailed information about the two hundred thousand troops. He quickly began to review it.

Meanwhile, on the western side, Qi Tianhou landed on the command platform. After glancing over the two hundred thousand troops, he began, "Do you know who I am?"

Most soldiers didn't know, so they remained silent.

"No matter who I am, now, I am your commander. I am the one who will lead you to victory and glory. Call me 'General Qi Tian'," Qi Tianhou said loudly.

"General Qi Tian!" all the soldiers shouted.

Satisfied with the two hundred thousand troops, Qi Tianhou suddenly extended his palm and pressed it firmly against the command platform.

"Heaven and Earth, heed my call," Qi Tianhou shouted.

Suddenly, endless black smoke erupted from Qi Tianhou's palm, instantly enveloping the entire command platform. The black smoke was extremely strange, preventing even divine consciousness from penetrating.

On the other command platform, Zhong Shan frowned slightly as he looked towards Qi Tianhou's direction.

Qi Tianhou, being of the seventh generation bloodline of the emperor, should still possess the ability to summon the Tiger Clan, but his cultivation was only at the Nascent Soul stage. The tigers he summoned might not necessarily be able to impress everyone. Why was this?

As Zhong Shan pondered, the black smoke dissipated, revealing a massive figure inside.

A monkey? No, an orangutan.

What Qi Tianhou summoned was not the Tiger Clan, but a giant orangutan standing sixty meters tall. As soon as the orangutan appeared, it roared and stood up, continuously pounding its chest with its two large fists.

"Dong, dong, dong..."

The continuous pounding sounded as if the giant orangutan was extremely excited. The sound was so loud that the tigers in the valley trembled, and the soldiers became tense. Rocks tumbled down the mountainside due to the tremors caused by the loud noise. The water in the nearby pond rippled incessantly.

"Enough!" Qi Tianhou said softly.

After Qi Tianhou finished speaking, the giant orangutan suddenly stopped its excitement and stood obediently to the side.

Stepping onto the orangutan's shoulder, Qi Tianhou looked arrogantly towards Zhong Shan not far away, showing a hint of contempt. Then, he turned to the soldiers of the Second Battalion and said, "Second Battalion of the Great Xuan Army, listen up."

"Yes!" the soldiers of the Second Battalion shouted excitedly.

A giant orangutan at the Emperor Extreme stage? Summoned by General Qi Tian? This General Qi Tian was extraordinary. With such a powerful general leading them, how could the soldiers of the Second Battalion not be excited?

"Follow me into battle, and let's annihilate our enemies together," Qi Tianhou said, raising a purple-golden dragon staff in his hand.

"Yes!" the soldiers of the Second Battalion shouted loudly in response.
