Even though this once glorious city had not fully recovered to its former glory, the bustling streets and rows of buildings still showed its important status as a place on Sixth Heaven.
As soon as the two arrived at the city gate, they were stopped by a guard general.
This general was burly, with a face full of scars, and a pair of small eyes that glanced back and forth, revealing a greedy and cunning look.
He scanned David and Hu Mazi up and down, and seeing their simple attire, he assumed they were easy targets.
“Stop! You two, you have to pay the toll to enter the city!”
The general put his hands on his hips and shouted loudly.
David frowned, secretly displeased.
He never expected to encounter such difficulties at the gates of this divine kingdom.
Moreover, this general obviously did not recognize him, otherwise he would never dare to be so presumptuous.
“Toll charges? I would like to ask, since when did this holy kingdom have a rule of paying tolls to enter a city?”
David asked coldly, his voice containing a hint of authority.
The general sneered and said disdainfully, “Enough nonsense! My rules are the rules. If you guys don’t want to pay, get out of here and don’t get in my way!”
Hu Mazi, who was listening from the side, was furious. He gets emotional easily and cannot stand such insults.
He stepped forward, pointed at the general’s nose, and cursed, “Who do you think you are? How dare you act like a thug here! Believe it or not, I will slap you to death!”
Enraged by Hu Mazi’s words, the general waved his arms and shouted, “Soldiers! Tie up these two reckless fools!”
Immediately, a group of guards rushed over and surrounded David and Hu Mazi.
David shook his head helplessly. He didn’t want to cause trouble, but this general was truly ungrateful.
With a gentle wave of his hand, powerful spiritual energy instantly radiated, and before the soldiers could react, they were shaken and fell to the ground.
Seeing this, the general’s face turned extremely ugly.
He never expected that these two seemingly ordinary people would have such powerful strength.
But he remained defiant, shouting, “How dare you make a scene in front of the capital’s gates! You have no respect for the law! Guards, take them to the palace and let His Majesty handle it!”
So, David and Hu Mazi were tied up by a group of soldiers and taken to the palace.
On the way, Hu Mazi continued to complain, while David remained calm. He wanted to see how King Wu Hao would handle this matter once they entered the palace.
As they were being led into the palace, Zi Yuan happened to see them.
Zi Yuan now serves as Prime Minister of the Divine Kingdom. She wore a beautiful purple dress and charming hair jewelry, making her look noble and elegant.
When he saw David and Hu Mazi tied up, he was first shocked, then furious.
