"Colluding with the Demon Seed, colluding with the enemy in private, and killing Shangguan. This is His Majesty's order.”
The officer took out the imperial order in his hand!
The imperial order was covered with a red seal, and the crime and evidence were written on it.
"Impossible!"
"General Su and the guards are risking their lives to protect the Great Wall, and you dare to say that he colluded with the enemy?!”
The soldiers were instantly annoyed.
"Do you want to defy the imperial edict?" the officer said coldly.! Do you know the consequences of defying the imperial edict?!”
When the soldiers heard the order, they immediately cowered and looked at Su Lie for help.
"Sir, is there a misunderstanding?" Su Lie asked with an ugly expression.”
"What misunderstanding? When I interrogate you properly, the truth will naturally come out. Come and arrest him.”
Ye Chen saw that something was wrong.
Was it Empress Wu Zetian's idea, or was it this so-called officer's idea?
Forget it, I'm too lazy to delve into it.
No matter whose idea it is, since they want to touch me, then go to hell.
Just as Ye Chen was about to make his move, a black shadow suddenly appeared behind the officer and captured him under his horse.
"Who are you?"
Before the officer could react, he was pressed to the ground by this person, his face touching the ground.
"You dare to attack a Tang officer? Do you want to die?!”
"Li Jianjun, you're such a powerful official," the man said with a laugh.
Ye Chen looked at this person. He was tall and muscular like a horned dragon. His clothes were about to burst out, but he was smiling.
This feeling was very strange.
When the officer heard this voice, he was so scared that his face turned pale.
" Lord, Lord Cheng Yaojin?!"
When Ye Chen heard the name called out by the officer, he knew that the person in front of him was Cheng Yaojin, who was known as the " Guardian God of the Empire's Weaklings."
After Empress Wu Zetian ascended the throne, Cheng Yaojin, who was impatient to abide by the strict attendance system, began to travel around the continent in disguise. He also took on the secret mission of patrolling.
This time, Cheng Yaojin was entrusted by Empress Wu Zetian to secretly patrol the Great Wall.
He did not expect to see this scene as soon as he arrived.
It was not the Great Wall Guards that had a problem, but the troops from Chang 'an.
The officer was still stubborn." Lord Cheng Yaojin, what are you doing? This is His Majesty's decree."”
"Li Jianjun, who do you think ordered me to come here?" Cheng Yaojin smiled.”
Hearing this, the officer's face turned pale.
When the armored cavalrymen saw this, they didn't know what to do.
"Come back with me and explain this matter clearly in front of His Majesty!”
Just like that, Li Jianjun, who wanted to capture Su Lie and the others with the excuse of having an affair with the demon seed, was captured by Cheng Yaojin.
Empress Wu Zetian's real imperial order was that Su Lie had rendered meritorious service in protecting the Great Wall. In consideration of the three generations of loyalty of the Su family, she appointed Su Lie as the general of the Western Garrison and commanded the Great Wall Guards!
All the Great Wall Guards cheered.
Although Su Lie wasn't old enough, most of the senior officials had died, except for the veterans. As the top scholar, Su Lie was highly skilled in martial arts. In addition to the three generations of loyalty of the Su family, he was naturally the best member of the highest leader of the Great Wall Guards.
The vast majority of the Great Wall Guards accepted this decision.
……
Li Jianjun was escorted into the prison of the protectorate. An hour later, a white-robed necromancer appeared outside the prison.
He was wearing a mask with ancient patterns, and peony petals fell from nowhere behind him.
"Who are you?" the guard at the door asked coldly.”
"Me? The specter of the Great Wall!"
The necromancer smiled and slowly walked past. The two guards guarding the door widened their eyes. Their bodies were drying up at a speed visible to the naked eye. Finally, they became as thin as a stick and fell to the ground.
Peony petals fell on their bodies.
"This time, it was all thanks to Lord Cheng Yaojin's timely appearance. Otherwise, Little General Su would have been wronged.”
The prison warden was drinking while bragging about what happened today with his subordinates.
This prison warden was a veteran. He could be said to be the oldest veteran in the Great Wall Guards. When he was young, he had touched the threshold of the Brave-tier. Now that he was old, he was still a Hero-tier expert.
As he spoke, his expression suddenly changed and he stood up.
"Someone broke in."
When the subordinate heard this, he revealed a surprised expression.
Someone actually dared to barge into the prison of the protectorate?
Are you courting death?
They couldn't believe it.
When they followed the warden out and saw the dried corpses on the ground, they all revealed terrified expressions.
The warden narrowed his eyes and looked at the peony necromancer in front of him. This peony necromancer gave him a very dangerous feeling.
"Who are you? How dare you barge into the prison!"
The Peony Necromancer smiled and said,"So what? You guys are too weak."
As soon as he finished speaking, everyone was horrified to find that the light had instantly dimmed. It was as if they were in a dark ghost's domain, which was very terrifying.
Countless black mist swept over from all directions. They felt their vitality draining away. When they lowered their heads, the flesh on their hands was drying up at a speed visible to the naked eye!
"What's going on?"
"No!"
"Help!"
Screams rang out as the soldiers were all turned into dried corpses.
The warden's face was pale. Although he was not as unbearable as the other soldiers, he could clearly feel that the blood in his body was flowing away at a very fast speed. In less than 10 minutes, his lower body would be the same as these soldiers.
The most terrifying thing was that the warden discovered that the darkness had formed an independent area. Now, he could not call out to anyone!
"No!"
The warden picked up the saber in his hand and slashed at the peony necromancer in front of him, but he found that it was an illusion.
With a slash, countless peony petals flew up, as if they were burying him.
Ten minutes later, the alchemist in white walked out of the prison slowly.
……
General Hall.
Su Lie led the higher-ups of the Great Wall Guards to invite Cheng Yaojin to a banquet.
Cheng Yaojin was eating meat and drinking wine. He burped and said,""This Li Jianjun was originally sent by the Great Tang as a supervisor, but now there's a problem.”
" Thank you, Lord Cheng," Su Lie said respectfully." Otherwise, the consequences would be unimaginable."”
Cheng Yaojin laughed and said," I haven't seen you for a few years. Su Lie, you've truly become a man. You've become a general at such a young age. You have to continue working hard."”
Su Lie cupped his hands and said,"I will definitely not disappoint Your Majesty and Lord Cheng's expectations!"”
Cheng Yaojin nodded." Actually, I came to the Great Wall this time to investigate the mysterious man in the demonic armor. But now it seems that it is more important to bring Li Jianjun back to Chang 'an."”
At this moment, a soldier walked in and said,""Not good, sir. That officer has been killed!”
The smiles on Su Lie and Cheng Yaojin's faces froze instantly and they stood up immediately.
