Chapter 284: Is this welcome?
[Seeing no results from your observations, you decide not to make any wild guesses.]
[Since the Holy City is right in front of you, why not just enter the city to gather some information?]
[With a single step, you head towards the city in the sky in the distance.]
[In the blink of an eye, you arrive outside the gates of the Holy City.]
[You look at the massive city gate, rub your slightly reddened forehead, and feel at a loss for words!]
["What the heck?"]
["Setting up a wall of void to prevent people from entering the city directly is one thing."]
["But the city gates are tightly shut?"]
[How are you supposed to get in?]
[Isn't this just keeping people like you, who are willing to defend the world, out of the organization?]
["Bad review, I must give this Holy City a bad review."]
["The management is really lacking."]
[As you continue to grumble in your heart, several powerful figures suddenly appear around you.]
[After using the Chaos Heavy Pupil to observe for a moment.]
[Your eyes narrow slightly, and you exclaim in your heart, "Goodness, truly impressive!"]
[They are all from the Ancient God realm of chaos.]
[You expected the Holy City to have many strong individuals, but this is too much!]
[You haven't even entered the city yet, and nearly ten Ancient God realm experts have casually appeared.]
[In terms of realm, the Ancient God realm of chaos is equivalent to the half-Dao level of the Immortal Dao; their combat power is even stronger than the half-Dao level!]
[At this moment, you hear one of the Ancient God realm experts named Hu Jun laugh heartily and say to you, "Hahaha, welcome, fellow Daoist, to the Holy City!"]
[Hearing this, you raise an eyebrow!]
[No way! Are these Ancient God realm experts here to welcome you?]
[Isn't this a bit too enthusiastic?]
[You're just a minor Ancient God realm of the starry sky. Do you really have such influence?]
[Could it be that someone from a previous cross-time simulation sensed you and recognized you?]
[And then had these Ancient God realm experts come to greet you?]
[Thinking of this, you feel a bit elated for a moment.]
[You think to yourself, "Although my strength isn't particularly strong in this time period, I have a lot of connections!"]
[No, wait!]
[Suddenly, you sense something amiss.]
[If they're welcoming you, why are they surrounding you?]
[Although they don't show any killing intent, their positions clearly encircle you.]
[You immediately sense that something is wrong!]
[It seems there are quite a few secrets in the Holy City.]
[However, you don't need to think about these for now.]
[Once you're inside the Holy City, you'll find out.]
[You don't dwell on this issue any longer.]
[Instead, you look at Hu Jun and the others!]
[Since they're just forcibly recruiting, there's no need to have a conflict with them.]
[For you, coming to the Holy City is not only to understand some situations but also to contribute in some way.]
[So, you smile at them and tell them you're here to help in the Holy City!]
[Hearing your response, Hu Jun immediately grins, puts his arm around your shoulder, and acts like you're close buddies.]
[Seeing Hu Jun like this, you internally comment, "So realistic!"]
[Afterward, you're led by Hu Jun and the others through the gates of the Holy City.]
[Just after passing through the gates, you immediately sense something is off.]
[You can't quite pinpoint what's wrong at the moment.]
[You just feel that the Dao here seems a bit off.]
[It's clearly different from the Dao outside the Holy City.]
[Besides that, you also sense a very strong power of time.]
[As you delve deeper into the Holy City, you find that there are hardly any people here.]
[Aside from your group, there seem to be only a few elderly and children without cultivation.]
[Strange, very strange.]
[In a frontline city? How can there be no one?]
[Have they all gone to the front?]
[Not leaving anyone for defense?]
[If that's the case, it could be said that there's a shortage of manpower, which might barely make sense.]
[But how can there be elderly and children in a frontline city?]
[That's not reasonable, is it?]
[Unable to figure it out, you can only silently remember all this information for now.]
[After a long while, Hu Jun suddenly stops.]
[He points to a residence and says to you, "You can stay there for now; in a few days, we'll go to the front together!"]
[Hu Jun leaves one person behind to stay with you, then hurriedly leaves with the others.]
[It's said to be for company, but you understand that leaving someone is to monitor you.]
[Clearly, Hu Jun doesn't trust you.]
[You don't mind this!]
