บท 568: Hongyue's Killing Intent

The vice-captain's command made the row of archers on the city wall stop hesitating. They immediately released their strung arrows which had long been aimed at the youth. More than a hundred metal arrows shot out at once!

Arrows rained down densely like a porcupine's spines that blotted out the sky. The youth had nowhere to dodge!

"What sort of joke is that!?"

Cherryblossoms widened her eyes in disbelief.

Why?

Why did the vice-captain not give him a chance to explain himself when the youth had already proven his lack of ill intent with his actions? Why did the vice-captain give the ruthless command without any hesitation?

Could it be that the hatred for humans gave them the indiscriminate reason to kill an innocent human?

Could revenge have blinded them to label all humans as "evil," causing them to execute what they believed was "justice?"
