When they reached the second floor, Jiu Shen and his two disciples saw a man in his late twenties standing guard at the entrance of the second floor. His short inky black hair was messy as if a vine that was left unattended for many years. He wasn't on the handsome side, but his face was finely chiseled that he looked like a valiant general who had gone through an uncountable number of wars. There was also an eye-catching scar that stretched from his forehead down to his left cheek, but it didn't make him look unsightly, in fact, it added a manly charm that enhanced his masculinity.
This man was wearing a set of black armor that looked even more imposing than the standard military armor of the imperial guards. Two swords were strapped on the man's back which formed an 'X' shape.
