"Where is your commanding captain?" Lin Mu questioned right away.

"What business do you have with the commander?" the guards asked.

"Yeah, without an appointment, no one can enter." The other guard said.

'They're certainly nervous… but what might be the reason behind it?' Lin Mu wondered before he spread his spirit sense.

"Oh, so your commanding captain is not here at all." Lin Mu said.

"H-how do you know that?!" the guards were stunned.

"W-we have no obligation to do that." The guards said.

"Oh, but you do. I'm here under the authority of minister Wu, and if you do not comply sufficient punishment shall be dealt." Lin Mu replied.
