Chapter 578 Someone Wants Li An Dead

So, after dealing with the matter, Li An summoned Shuangxue, Kexiu, and Lin He, boarded a flying shuttle, and headed to the 3-18 war zone star continent. It wasn't a planet, but a continent.Behind each war zone of the Third Great Wall was a border city, straddling the continent. Eighty war zones, eighty pieces of land, connected to form a vast, arc-shaped star continent—this was the entirety of the Third Great Wall. This continent blocked all routes for the Demon Realm to enter the human realm.Besides this route, the rest of the starry sky had been shattered into dimensional spaces.It turned out the human realm wasn't without a three-dimensional defense line. A Space King had already shattered heaven and earth. For the Demon Realm to directly attack the human realm, this was the only way. As for traversing dimensional spaces, that wasn't something ordinary people could do; at least a god-level being was required.The border city behind the 3-18 war zone was called Hanxing City.As soon as Li An entered the city, he was greeted by a deluge of posters advertising himself and Shuangxue, each picture showing one of them on one side, accompanied by headlines such as "Strategist of the 18th War Zone: Li An / Lead Attacker: Shuangxue; Hanxing City Will Be Indestructible."After disembarking, Li An donned sunglasses to conceal his presence and rushed to the front lines."You guys find a place to stay in this city first.""I'll go scout the situation." After instructing his teammates, Li An went ahead to the front lines.Military uniform, available.Disguise, basic.Pass, available.However, the pass would display his real name, so the guards knew that the pockmarked soldier before them was actually Li An.Seeing the string of personal information appear on his entry documents, they froze, their eyes gradually shifting from disbelief to excitement."Shh," Li An gestured for silence, then went into the security room and sat down to chat with the man."First question.""Have the demons been harassing us frequently lately?"The other person, Zheng Hu, hesitated upon hearing this question, his face showing distress."What's wrong?" Li An frowned."Sigh." Zheng Hu sighed, his eyes dimming."Hanxing City is loudly proclaiming that you and the Young Marshal are coming to garrison this line of defense.""As a result, the demon realm also found out.""A month and a half ago, the demon army had already assembled tens of thousands of miles outside the border, building military fortresses.""A month ago, they launched small-scale border harassments, a small battle every three days, a major battle every five days."Li An frowned upon hearing this: "Were there any casualties?"Zheng Hu lowered his head and said: "No casualties so far, but six soldiers were captured."Li An's expression changed slightly. "How could this be?""Logically speaking, it's impossible for them to launch a major siege during this period.""Why not just hold out in the war zone?"Hearing this...The sentry's expression became incredibly complex, finally settling on two sentences:"You don't know what you represent to us.""You also don't know what the Demon Realm has done.""Go to the beacon tower and you'll see!""Alright!" Li An nodded emphatically and quickly headed to the beacon tower.Upon arriving,a chilling wind swept across the weathered ancient city walls, piercingly clear.Groups of warriors stood on the walls, leaning against them, their faces flushed with hatred as they stared at the battlefield before them, some even trembling with rage.Li An's gaze sharpened instantly!On the vast, distant border battlefield, dust swirled.About two thousand miles from the Great Wall, a small demon fortress stood.Before the fortress, six human warriors were bound to crosses, beneath them a black circular array.The executioner's cleavage! Six human warriors were enduring a brutal, slow-motion torture, blood streaming from their gaping wounds. Yet, they wouldn't die completely; the torture would slowly restore their life force.These six human warriors had been subjected to this torture for six days and six nights.Before the formation, the demon leader Balzah stared cruelly at the humans on the city wall.Behind him, from the fortress, extremely humiliating words played on a loop:"Humans, a heartless and ungrateful race!""Li An, an incompetent coward!""Frost and Snow, a pretty face but no substance!""Seeing your people being humiliated and tortured, yet daring not to leave the city, the entire human race is utterly cowardly, all are rats!"The curses echoed across the city wall amidst the swirling sandstorm!A burly soldier, his face flushed, roared, "To hell with it!""Let me down!""Ah! I'll kill all these beasts!!"He couldn't take it anymore.But the next second, he was stopped by other soldiers."Brother Mo gave the order, we can't go! Disobeying orders is punishable by death!"The soldier finally broke down in anger, shouting, "Why isn't anyone helping us?!""Wait, wait, wait, how long do we have to wait for Li An?!""The district chief is gone, the original Commander Liu isn't here either, Old Xie has been tortured to death for six days and six nights, why is no one doing anything?!"Hearing this, Li An felt a sudden daze, a surge of intense anger rising to his head."Hiss!"He took a deep breath, forcing himself to calm down, pretending he hadn't seen anything, and walked through the angry crowd.The words that man had just shouted contained a tremendous amount of information!The original district chief and the strategist had simply walked away.The six soldiers below had been tortured to death for six days and six nights.Li An had absolutely no idea about this!?Such a large war zone.Such a huge thing had happened.He had no news at all! If he hadn't decided to come and check ahead, he would have known nothing and would have continued his cultivation in the Temple of Cultivation for another six months.If he had arrived here six months later, he would likely have been devoured by the murderous gazes of all the soldiers.Everyone was waiting for him, but the soldiers here had no idea when he would arrive, and no one had told them!All of this pointed to one thing—someone wanted to kill him!Li An took another deep breath and calmed himself.Had the enemy really left?His gaze swept over the angry soldiers around him.On the city walls, below.There were over 1,600 soldiers in this war zone.Now he was in the shadows, while the enemy was in the open.He couldn't reveal his hand too easily.Originally, Li An wanted to go directly to the command center to find the air force and army commanders.But he still couldn't distinguish who was the enemy and who was on his side.Li An took out his satellite dish, deactivated his location services, and then found the contact information for the air force commander, along with all his information.The commander's name was Mo Xian!He's related to Mo Xiaosao!A breakthrough has been found.Li An directly connected to the other party's star platform."Who is it?" Mo Xian's voice was hoarse, his mood low."Li An," Li An replied."Bang!"
