Yangguan.
A vital stop along the southern Silk Road, serving as a crucial nexus for external trade and communication.
Situated south of the Yumen Pass, it derives its name from the radiant sun.
Within Yangguan lies a quaint town known as Yangguan Town.
Historically, it has been a bustling hub for merchants from the Western Regions and wanderers of the martial world, thriving economically yet characterized by a rugged populace and frequent instances of violence.
Local authorities often turned a blind eye to the conflicts among these martial wanderers, resulting in a prevalence of bloody incidents and poor law enforcement.
However, this status quo was disrupted several days ago by the arrival of one man.
He was none other than the stalwart hero of the Great Ming, Zhu Wushi.
With Zhu Wushi's arrival, the entire town fell under the strict surveillance of the Dragon Heights.
Entry was permitted, but exit was forbidden.
