The guards at the top of the castle walls were rather drowsy, as things here had been peaceful for far, far too long Given the influence and power of Tianxun Castle, how many would dare to cause trouble here?
“Eh?”
The vibrations caused by the distant, galloping horses caused one of the guards to take a closer look off towards the distance Torches were lit all around the castle, and their light was dihts
“Not good” The guard was shocked Taking a closer look, he was able to tell that there had to be at least a few hundred knights headed their way His face turned ashen with fear as he hurriedly picked up his warning horn, then lifted it up high and blew it loudly
WUUUUUUUU!
The deep, echoing sounds of the horn instantly filled the entire castle The castle instantly turned into a hubbub of coed out from within it Quite a feomen and children were awakened as well

“Father, then we…?”
“Our only choice is to come up with a way to have them voluntarily depart”
Rumble…
The thundering hoofsteps of the three thousand Mystice Knights continued to ring out as they began to gather in front of Castle Tianxun Soon, all of the knights came to a halt The leader was a coray mask on his face Only his eyes could be seen, and he stared at the white-bearded old man atop the walls as he said calmly, “Li Tianxun, the day of your death has come”
“Death?” The faces of those atop the walls of Castle Tianxun becahtly These words showed that clearly, this matter wouldn’t be so easily resolved
