Forgotten Legend of the Bloodied Flower



"What is it, Ao Kuai?" Nan Luo asked, suppressing his emotion.

Feng Ao Kuai was already approaching 19 years old, so it was not that weird that he had his growth spurt. In any case, he already looked far more mature than how he used to look like before.

"Be more patient. There will be a chance for you to break through their defense." Feng Ao Kuai was staying at the back, ordering his men to focus on defending. It was also because of this that he could see Nan Luo was trying his best to break through but failed miserably.

The opposing army was definitely really strong.

"I know." Nan Luo pursed his lips.

He was still only 2000 men commander and hadn't been promoted again. Though he had the feeling that if he were to do well in this war, he would be able to be promoted again. But that would have to wait until the end result later on.

He would just do his best.

"Brother Ao Si is very lucky. You don't have to compare to him." Feng Ao Kuai didn't know what he should say about his older brother.

Saying that his older brother was not a proper commander, but he kept on striking achievements on the battlefield.

Saying that his older brother was a good commander, but his soldiers were often frustrated because he was often busy killing other kingdom's commanders and ignored his own soldiers.

It was really tiring.

But one thing for sure, Feng Ao Si should be able to stay stable as 3000 men commander for a long period of time.

As for more promotion?

There no doubt that other generals and commanders would reject the notion. Even 3000 men were already quite hard for Feng Ao Si to lead so far, so he should be stuck in this position for a long period of time.

Anyway, 23 years old 3000 men commander was pretty good.

Nan Luo: "…" he recently heard that Feng Ao Si was somehow lucky and managed to kill a commander form the opposing army.

"I know. He's really lucky to be able to get a quick success so fast after returning to the army from his marriage break." Nan Luo took a deep breath.

Feng Ao Si come to the army not long ago and in just a few days, he managed to kill another opposing commander. Tell him, how could he not be jealous?

But knowing Feng Ao Si's habit, Nan Luo finally gave up thinking.

Anyway, he knew that Feng Ao Si must have encountered that commander by accident and with his nature of dueling all commanders who came to sight, that commander ended up being slain by him.

"You might be lucky too later," Feng Ao Kuai said slowly.

"Do you want to cooperate with him."

"No."

Immediate answer.

Nan Luo nearly laughed out loud when he heard what Feng Ao Kuai said. Knowing how Feng Ao Si usually behaved, it was not unusual for Feng Ao Kuai to reject this notion immediately.

It was good enough if the two of them could fight in separate army and not clash with each other.

The two of them were about to continue talking when they saw a man in armor walking in their direction. They hadn't interacted a lot with the other party, but they immediately recognized him as he had also been making his name on the battlefield lately.

"Second Young Commander Feng, Young Commander Nan," the man in armor greeted.

"Young Commander Wei," Feng Ao Kuai and Nan Luo cupped their fist and greeted in response.

"May I ask what brings you here today, Young Commander Wei?" Feng Ao Kuai continued seamlessly.

Young Commander Wei, Wei Mu Bai, is a 4000 men commander. But in this battle against Zhang Xu Kingdom, he was temporarily raised in rank to 5000 men commander. Right now, they all knew that this was another one of the younger generation who had the chance to become a general.

They didn't know about the condition he needed to fulfill for him to keep this rank, but they had guessed that it wouldn't be easy. General Wei was known to have high expectation for his children, so he never allowed them to easily rise in rank.

Perhaps, he was quite similar in condition with Long Qian Xing.

The only difference was that he was deemed to be more unqualified to rise in rank by his father, which slowed his progress down. Still, he was only one year older than Feng Ao Si, but his rank was twice higher.

Tsk, tsk, Feng Ao Kuai felt that he began to compare his older brother with the other young commanders lately.

"Prime Minister Lei had a lot of powerful capable commanders and generals under him. It's a bit hard for me to break through the defense, so I would like to request a collaboration with the two of you," Wei Mu Bai replied politely yet bluntly.

Feng Ao Kuai arched his eyebrows. He knew that Prime Minister Lei was hard to handle, but it was definitely not something that they could possibly contend with. Even if there were a lot of powerful young commanders rising lately, they were not a match against that old fox.

Even General Wei had to be careful when facing Prime Minister Lei.

Who could openly admit that they were on par with General Wei aside from that peculiar general from Fan Yi Kingdom?

At the very least, they didn't dare.

"A collaboration sounds interesting, but I don't know why Young Commander Wei comes to us when there are many other who might be more suitable," Feng Ao Kuai asked slowly while Nan Luo stayed silent by the side.

Nan Luo felt that Wei Mu Bai's request was a bit strange. Even if the he and Feng Ao Kuai collaborate together, the number of soldiers under them would not be a match with Wei Mu Bai.

Why would he suggest collaborating with them?
