Chapter 750 - 369 Suspicion and Conspiracy_2
Before long, the sound of galloping hooves thundered like a drumbeat.
The ground trembled faintly in response.
A cavalry force surged forward under the darkened sky.
Among them, a man with a scar on his forehead stood out strikingly.
His cold, piercing gaze fixed on the ancient town ahead, his lips curled into a bloodthirsty grin.
This man was none other than the infamous Scorpion.
As a fearsome bandit notorious in the Tongqiu Desert region, Scorpion had lived in this desolate land for a full twenty years.
He had once been the son of a landlord in Nanjin Country, but after abducting a village girl and enraging a powerful figure, he was thrown into prison, facing the prospect of execution.
Originally destined for the chopping block, his fate changed when he befriended a fellow prisoner.
When that prisoner’s associates broke into the jail to rescue him, they took Scorpion along.
