Five days later…
The Great Wall was the border of the Great Tang Empire.
On the west side of the Great Wall were the Cloudy Desert and the various Hu Kingdoms of the Western Regions.
Although the Great Tang's power extended to the Cloudy Desert and had established a protectorate there, there were still many Hu Kingdoms in the Western Regions that had been eyeing the Great Tang covetously.
On the eastern side of the Great Wall, there were many small towns.
These towns were inhabited by the people of the Great Tang, and they were also the encampments of the thirteen garrisons of the Third Corps.
Every small town had a guard station stationed there.
The Third Guard Station, Peace Town.
A tall, handsome mixed-blood demon with wolf ears was sitting on the roof, wiping the sniper rifle in his hand.
His sniper rifle was not an ordinary weapon. It was a demonic mechanism passed down from his father!
There was no need for bullets. He only needed to inject the power of the demonic path to fire!
The higher the user's cultivation, the purer the demonic power, and the stronger the power of the bullets fired!
The man wiped his gun and frowned in deep thought.
It was too strange.
The things that had happened recently were simply too strange!
His name was Baili Shouyue. He had been traveling outside for many years and had only returned to the Great Wall recently.
Upon returning, Baili Shouyue heard about the betrayal incident that happened not long ago.
However, this matter filled Baili Shouyue with doubts.
He had heard of Su Lie's reputation. He was loyal to the country and had been at the border of the Great Wall for many years. He was loved by the people.
How could such a person betray the Great Wall?
Also, the Third Corps said that the Hu and the Demon Seeds had slaughtered the people of two towns, a total of 300,000 people. But where were the bodies?
Su Lie was the only one who betrayed them. The other guards had all died, which was even stranger.
No matter what, there shouldn't be no survivors in the Seventh Guard, right?
The entire Great Wall was filled with a strange aura!
Baili Shouyue looked into the distance and thought of his younger brother who had been separated from him many years ago.
All these years, he had traveled everywhere to look for his brother, but he had never found any news about Xuan Ce.
Alas, Xuan Ce, where did you go?
You…Was he still alive?
At this moment, a loud noise interrupted Baili Shouyue's thoughts.
Raising his head, he saw prison carriages slowly approaching from afar.
There were more than ten badly mutilated prisoners on the prison carriage, and they were escorted by a team of soldiers.
Baili Shouyue frowned. Criminal?
Why were the criminals 'mouths sealed?
Why were their eyes filled with unwillingness?
Curious, Baili Shouyue decided to follow them.
Not long after, the prisoners were escorted to the execution platform. A dozen executioners stood behind the prisoners and waited for the order from the supervisor to chop off the prisoners 'heads.
These prisoners were Zhao Xiaohu and the rest of the remaining soldiers of the Seventh Guard.
At this moment, Zhao Xiaohu's eyes were spewing fire. His heart was filled with monstrous anger and unwillingness to be wronged.
Why?
We risked our lives to defend the Great Wall and the Great Tang, but this is the result?
Why was that?
Unwilling!
I can't accept this!
Even if I die, I won't accept it!
"It's noon."
The execution supervisor stood up from his seat and took out a token, about to announce the execution.
Whoosh!
A sharp arrow that was flashing with blue light came from afar and pierced through the token in the supervisor's hand.
Immediately after, several figures rushed over from afar and arrived at the execution platform in a few leaps. In a few moves, they knocked the executioner off the platform.
A burly man's palm emitted rays of light that landed on these prisoners, unlocking their restrictions.
"General!"
Zhao Xiaohu exclaimed as soon as the restriction was lifted.
These people who suddenly appeared were Su Lie, Hua Mulan, Sheng, Pei Qinhu, and Jialuo, who was hiding in the dark.
More than ten days ago, Sheng and Pei Qinhu went to the Great Wall to find Su Lie.
When they arrived, Pei Qinhu heard that more than a dozen of his brothers were imprisoned and tortured every day.
However, Pei Qinhu and Sheng weren't strong enough to save their brothers.
The two of them could only find Hua Mulan and Su Lie before making a decision.
Pei Qinhu went to Su Lie, and Sheng went to Hua Mulan to tell them about the Great Wall.
Hence, the current scene happened.
