Even though I was dressed as an ugly woman, I was still forced to love by all kinds of big guys

"We can't wait any longer!" One guard thought for a long time and said to his two remaining companions, "If we delay any longer, it will be even harder for us to leave the city when daybreak comes."

Seeing the bearded man waving the big knife playfully back and forth over a child's head, as if foreshadowing that the next soul to be killed by the knife would be that child, the guard's voice trembled with hatred.

"Your Highness, I will try to summon the living guards in the city with a secret signal. If there is a commotion at the city gate, you must seize the opportunity to escape!"

This was the only solution. Han Junyue nodded, his tone awkward as he looked at these young faces and said, "Thank you..."

Before leaving, the guard said to Su Su in a tone that was almost pleading: "If there is an accident, even for a moment, please try to give His Highness a chance to escape!"

Su Su hesitated for a moment, but finally nodded.

This was a white lie. If she were to ask herself, if that situation really happened, she would not be able to exchange her own life for Lao Liu's life. She would run faster than a rabbit.

She is not that great. Even if Qixia really loses its country and changes its ruler, she will live to find Brother Gou and Ergou. As long as they are there, wherever she goes is home.

After getting Su Su's assurance, the guards finally felt relieved and ran in three different directions.

After a while, whistles echoed throughout the long street from different places. What was exciting was that more whistles sounded from all directions in an instant.

The eyes of the officials kneeling in the crowd lit up. They recognized that this was the whistle of the Qixia guards' attack!

Almost at the same time when the guards appeared from everywhere and rushed towards the enemy at the city gate, the officials kneeling on the ground suddenly stood up and fought with the enemy soldiers with swords and knives with their bodies.

They yelled at the civilians, “Run!!!”

The enemy was distracted for a moment by the sudden change, but then they reacted and quickly fought back.

"Why are there so many guards!" They had no time to care about these civilians. They quickly found cover and sent out a signal to assemble.

Taking advantage of the fact that the scattered enemy troops had not yet arrived, Su Su seized the opportunity, pulled Han Junyue over, passed through a heavy rain of arrows, and followed a group of civilians out of the county town.

Behind him was the sound of fighting that resounded through the sky. The guards were all extremely brave, fighting one against a hundred, and playing the final song of life with their own lives.

Tears rolled down her eyes, and Su Su finally understood why Qixia had become the most powerful country in the world.

She didn't believe that Qixia would perish as a country like this!

She held Han Junyue's hand tightly, even to the point of hurting him a little, but he didn't care.

He looked at her back with eyes as dark as ink.

After taking one last look back at the soldiers in the firelight, Han Junyue grabbed Su Su with his backhand and burst out with amazing speed, pulling her along like flying.

The two did not dare to stop and ran all the way.

Relying on her experience in escaping, Su Su left the official road and took Han Junyue into the woods.

They didn't know how long they had been running, but they couldn't run anymore. Su Su called Han Junyue to stop. She listened carefully for a long time. In the quiet woods, apart from each other's breathing, the only sound was the heartbeat like a drum.

She found a valley and hid in it with Han Junyue.

"Rest for a while! Rest for a while before you go!" She collapsed on the ground, her voice as hoarse as a broken bellows, making it difficult to hear.

Han Junyue just stood there without making any movement.

Su Su looked up suspiciously, thinking that Lao Liu was going to make trouble again. She quietly felt the ground, grabbed a handful of dirt, and was ready to throw it at him at any time.

"Hey, you bitch!" Lao Liu suddenly spoke, startling Su Su. She yelled back rudely, "What are you doing?"

Han Junyue smiled inexplicably, then he slowly squatted down with a wicked smile on his face, "Tell me, if I die, will their deaths be in vain?"

The dirt in her hand almost fell on Lao Liu's face. Su Su frowned tightly and said, "What nonsense are you talking about? I haven't heard of the term 'harmful legacy' for thousands of years."

After saying that, Han Junyue laughed again, even laughing until tears came out. After laughing enough, he looked at Su Su and said, "But, I'm dying..."

Only then did Su Su realize that his face was pale and even his lips were white as a bloodless color.

She was shocked, "Where are you hurt?!"

Han Junyue lowered his head, and she followed his gaze to look at his heart. If you didn't look closely, you couldn't see the wet spot on his black clothes.

Without caring about anything else, Su Su grabbed Han Junyue's collar and touched it. She found a broken arrow stuck in his back through his chest, revealing a finger-long arrowhead.

Su Su panicked instantly. Although the wicked will be punished by God, Lao Liu can't die now! At least wait until Qi Xia survives this time before he is punished!

She helped Lao Liu lie down and tore open the corner of her skirt to stop his bleeding, but it was of no use and the blood continued to flow.

Han Junyue's vision was blurred due to excessive blood loss. He held Su Su's hand in vain, gasping for breath, "It's useless..."

Su Su took his hand away, tore off more cloth, and used it to plug his wound. Like a stubborn child, she repeated, "It works! It works!"

It was really amazing that Han Junyue still had the energy to laugh, "I never thought... you would care about my life or death..."

Seeing that Su Su ignored him, Han Junyue continued to talk to himself, "At the city gate, I was shot by the damned Jin people..."

"It hurts so much..." He had wanted to collapse a long time ago. He just wanted to be a useless salted fish and die.

But when he turned around and looked at those people who were fighting for him in the sea of fire, a voice in his heart told him that even if he died, he should not die in front of them.

He knew that if he died in front of them, their faith would collapse in an instant and they would die with regrets.

His consciousness was about to fade away, and Han Junyue didn't even have the strength to fake a smile. He swallowed the fishy and sweet taste in his throat and called out to Su Su.

"Su Su...I'm sorry..."

He finally uttered this willing and sincere apology for being late.

Looking back on his life, he has wronged so many people, and now there is no chance to atone for his sins.

Su Su paused with her blood-stained hands. She slapped Han Junyue's face and said, "What's the use of just saying sorry? Han Junyue, don't sleep! Don't sleep! Don't close your eyes! You have to live to make it up to me!"

But Han Junyue no longer had the strength to respond. He lay quietly in Su Su's arms, without any of his previous arrogance and domineering attitude.

Su Su cried anxiously, what should she do! Qi Xia's future was ruined by her!
