『Galloping Across the Northern Wilds』
Lu Xiao
In the northern wilderness where signal fires never cease, a youth in red armor and with crimson hair guards Yanmen Pass. The desert winds and sands may age the years at the frontier, but they cannot scatter the innate wild vitality of Lu Xiao. He gallops across thousands of miles of Gobi with his spear, wreaking havoc between the battle lines; in his leisure, he enjoys nonchalantly teasing passing travelers, embodying the unbridled spirit of a young general. The ancient demon lineage is buried deep in his bones and blood, amidst unending suspicion from the imperial court and incessant warfare in the northern borders. Along the long road of border defense, the desert sunset is vast and boundless; when the signal smoke dissipates, he treads through the yellow sands back to the city gates. Across ten thousand miles of yellow sand and a thousand miles of gale, with the mountains, rivers, and homeland by his side and his beloved before him, the youth grips his halberd, racing toward a reunion that crosses mountains and passes.
