Starfall Fortress, as an organization, had a detailed division of duties.

Guan Jiu and the elder who went to Xingyun Continent were reconnaissance soldiers, the type responsible for gathering intelligence.

As for the general who was killed by Jun Changxiao, his position was relatively higher, but he was basically just used to charge forward.

Within the fortress, there was one position that was very important—the Twelve Patrol Envoys. They not only patrolled the mortal universe daily, but when necessary would also guest star as constables responsible for capturing criminals.

There were twelve Patrol Envoys who liked to work alone. Their distinctive clothing made them easily recognizable.

Shang You Hen had not only heard of this position in the fortress, but also knew that his ancestor was captured by two Patrol Envoys that year.

“Are they very strong?” Jun Changxiao asked.

Shang You Hen said with a grave expression, “I heard that only those who have reached the middle tier Void Breaking Realm are qualified to become Patrol Envoys!”

“Damn!”

Jun Changxiao’s eyes widened.

In the mortal universe, reaching the middle tier level was equivalent to having the qualifications to ascend to the upper realm. Such a big shot level figure would actually humble himself to be a night watchman patrolling!

“The sandbag has arrived.”

The system said, “The host can fully unleash now.”

“…”

Jun Changxiao’s mouth twitched slightly.

The Dark Great Demon King also had middle tier strength. If not for using the Tianyuan Soul-Suppressing Tower to catch him off guard, he definitely couldn’t have beaten him. Now facing the powerful Patrol Envoy, he felt somewhat uncertain.

Moreover!

There were eleven more of this level!

“Starfall Fortress has some substance!” Jun Changxiao thought to himself, “I really need to be careful now.”

The sky-high imposing momentum that had risen from the dual Fire-Evil spirits and transformed divine weapon immediately restrained itself considerably after seeing one of the fortress’s Patrol Envoys.

Develop sneakily, don’t act recklessly!

“This friend.”

Jun Changxiao cupped his hands, “Suddenly blocking the road halfway can easily cause accidents.”

His tone became relatively more polite.

This wasn’t being cowardly. It was mainly about conserving energy first, then causing a big commotion once he reached Starfall Fortress.

The middle-aged man also didn’t dwell on being cursed at, instead saying indifferently, “Boy, if you know accidents can happen, you should have slowed down before entering the Starfall Fortress area.”

So it wasn’t looking for trouble, but rather because Dog Sheng’s ship was going too fast, which was why he suddenly intercepted it.

“We’ve already reached the Starfall Fortress area?”

Jun Changxiao was stunned for a moment, then took out his star map. After confirming his coordinates, he said apologetically, “I was going too fast and didn’t notice.”

He truly didn’t know he had already reached the destination’s range, but taking out the map and his subsequent expression were all an act, pretending he had been careless for a moment.

The Patrol Envoy said indifferently, “Remember this—within the Starfall Fortress jurisdiction, fast ships are prohibited. If you commit another offense, you’ll be subject to punishment.”

“Okay, okay.” Jun Changxiao said.

The system said, “First time seeing the host being cowardly.”

“What the hell do you know!”

Jun Changxiao cursed in his heart, “I’m enduring humiliation and bearing heavy burdens, first infiltrating Starfall Fortress before anything else!”

If it were just an ordinary organization, going in with a confrontational attitude would be fine, but Starfall Fortress was extraordinary after all. If he got into a fight with that guy, it would inevitably trigger a series of problems afterward.

Moreover, judging from the current situation, the other party apparently didn’t know he was the culprit who dealt with the Starfall Twin Tyrants. Otherwise, they would have started fighting already.

This was an excellent opportunity!

While they hadn’t yet confirmed his identity, he could scout out the fortress’s overall strength, then rescue the Nine Great Martial Emperors. If conditions allowed, releasing all the prisoners from the Nine Layer Hell to keep them too busy to pay attention elsewhere wouldn’t be bad either!

Jun Changxiao wasn’t being cowardly.

He was just formulating the most perfect plan in the shortest time.

The Patrol Envoy drove his battleship to clear the way, saying indifferently, “Pass through.”

“Thank you!”

Jun Changxiao cupped his hands, steering the Tonggu Battleship past. Only after moving far away from the other party did he helplessly sigh.

He very much wanted to fight with a middle tier Void Breaking Realm cultivator to test his current combat power, but since he had reached the fortress’s territory, to avoid any mishaps, he could only forcibly suppress this thought.

“Still prioritize gathering intelligence and rescuing people.”

Standing at the ship’s bow, Jun Changxiao suddenly lost that shameless air about him.

That’s right—when you open your book-reading software, you see it correctly. Dog Sheng is now giving off an unprecedented sense of steadiness, a complete change in style.

The system said, “This is what a Sect Master who takes the big picture into account looks like.”

“Stop the ship!”

Suddenly, a shout came from behind.

That Patrol Envoy had driven his battleship to catch up again.

Jun Changxiao stopped and said with a puzzled expression, “I don’t think I was speeding, was I?”

“Boy.”

The Patrol Envoy said in a deep voice, “Since you have a star map, that means you’re a second-class resident of my Starfall Fortress. This envoy needs to check your identity credentials.”

The star map Jun Changxiao had taken out wasn’t the widely circulated market version, but rather Starfall Fortress’s special edition. Not only did it mark most plane coordinates, but if you infused spiritual sense into it, it would also give you positioning—a high-tech product of the martial world.

“Damn.”

Jun Changxiao thought to himself, “I forgot about this!”

The star map was obtained from the hands of the Starfall Five Tyrants. The white-haired elder had mentioned that only those with second-class status could possess it, but because he was in a hurry to pretend to be confused, he didn’t think of it at the moment.

“One oversight in a hundred details!”

“Take it out!” The Patrol Envoy shouted again.

He had patrolled for many years and seen many warriors who took counterfeit special edition star maps trying to infiltrate the fortress. Moreover, the regulations stated that once discovered, the item should be confiscated and the person arrested.

“…”

Jun Changxiao’s brow furrowed slightly.

Tense and exciting BGM played as the atmosphere became tense.

“Alright.”

Jun Changxiao shrugged and tossed out an object.

“Slap!”

The Patrol Envoy raised his hand and caught it.

It was a token carved with ‘Second-Class Status,’ surrounded by strange patterns. Judging from the craftsmanship, it was very exquisite.

Shang You Hen thought in surprise, “So the Sect Master is a second-class resident of the fortress!”

Starfall Fortress recruited residents every year during fixed months. The conditions required not just money but also connections—both were indispensable. So forget about becoming a second-class resident, even becoming a third-class resident was extremely difficult!

The Starfall Five Tyrants first spent massive resources to become third-class residents, then pulled strings and went through back doors to barely mix their way up to second-class residents. The entire process could fill a book.

Jun Changxiao had overlooked the special edition star map, but naturally wouldn’t overlook the identity token, so before coming he borrowed a resident token from one of the tyrants.

He didn’t borrow it—he blatantly robbed it!

And forced the white-haired elder to forcibly remove his soul imprint. Truly rotten to the core, with sores on the head and pus dripping from the feet!

After confirming the token’s authenticity, the Patrol Envoy casually tossed it back, saying indifferently, “Since you’re a fortress resident, you should remember the travel rules. Next time if this envoy catches you speeding, you’ll be severely punished.”

“I had urgent matters to return to the fortress and momentarily forgot the rules. It definitely won’t happen again next time.”

Jun Changxiao said with a forced smile.

After driving the ship away, the smile on his face faded as a trace of strong anger flashed through his eyes.

Damn it!

When have I ever suffered such treatment!

If not for taking the big picture into account, this old man would have fought him to the bitter end no matter what!

The system said, “The host’s behavior of talking tough after the fact—what difference is there from those supporting villain characters?”

As someone suffering from the terminal illness of ‘will die if I don’t mock,’ its skill had been increasing daily, leaving absolutely no opportunity for readers who liked to mock.
