Forgotten Legend of the Bloodied Flower

"The gong rule is really interesting." Ming Shi Hong laughed when he saw the soldiers retreating. He himself didn't know anything about such rules and it was estimated that the others wouldn't.

Besides, if they truly wanted to attack them, would they still follow the rule or would they just forget everything and just attacked?

It was estimated that the second one was more plausible.

After all, these people didn't look like they were willing to give up the meat that was already presented in front of them. The only reason they were willing to follow such rule should be because of the presence of these people from Fei Yang Kingdom.

"It's time for us to have some talk." Long Qian Xing glanced at Ming Shi Hong as he climbed onto his horse again.

"Well, I'm not the absolute leader." Ming Shi Hong shrugged. "It had to wait until we go back and discuss with the other two leaders."

"Ok."

Long Qian Xing could see that Ming Shi Hong was a bit wary of him but still chose to allow him to come to their temporary headquarter. Should a fight breakout between the two parties, the damages wouldn't be small at all.

But honestly, Long Qian Xing was not interested in this area at all.

First of all, it was too far away from the other territory of Fei Yang Kingdom. Even if General Hong and the generals before him had worked hard to expand Fei Yang Kingdom's territory, it was also the truth that they didn't manage to rule these areas too well.

He only come to the south in order to chase after Shi Long Kingdom's expansion. But what a person could do was definitely not comparable to what the entire empire had prepared.

So the south area was a bit more chaotic, which was why General Hong never dared to confront Shi Long Kingdom directly. He would rather just play as deterrence from the side but whether he could actually attack was unknown.

Long Qian Xing had no such qualm.

Even if there were riots behind him, he would just send his adjutants or other commanders to deal with it.

He trusted the people under him.

When they were dealing with those problems, he could deal with the problem in this area and blocked Shi Long Kingdom.

"You're calm," Ming Shi Hong commented. "Say, how did you become a general at such a young age? You look like you're just 10 years younger than me."

10 years ago, he was still following behind his father and couldn't lead this family. Ming Shi Hong sighed deeply when he recalled his father's training and also treatment to him over the years. It could be said that the main reason he was able to lead the family was because of his strict and annoying father.

"I'm capable enough for this position." Long Qian Xing was calm as they rode their respective horses to the back.

From this location, he could already see the temporary headquarters set by Ming Shi Hong.

Since it was quite hard to find a relatively hiding place, the headquarters for both sides were visible in plain sight. They simply picked the highest location to stay and rested their soldiers.

If the enemy wanted to attack, they would be spotted easier from higher place.

"Fei Yang Kingdom is a big kingdom like Shi Long Kingdom?"

"Yes."

"In that case, are you the youngest general?" Ming Shi Hong asked again.

Long Qian Xing passed a look at Ming Shi Hong, not understanding how this man suddenly turned into a chatterbox. Even if he didn't mind talking about this, it still felt strange to see this man suddenly talked so much to him.

"No, I'm not the youngest."

"Really? Who's the youngest?"

"Her." Long Qian Xing pointed at Nan Hua, who had just arrived with Ye Shu Ken. After fighting with General Qiang, Ye Shu Ken brought Nan Hua back for the so called negotiation. Even if it might be dangerous, but Ye Shu Ken would try to believe in Fei Yang Kingdom.

They should not be as bad as Shi Long Kingdom.

Perhaps…

Ming Shi Hong heard Long Qian Xing's words and moved his eyes to follow the direction. Looking at Nan Hua who came with Ye Shu Ken, it was clear that Nan Hua looked much younger than Long Qian Xing. After all, Nan Hua is only 19 years old while Long Qian Xing was already 23 years old.

"She's the youngest general in Fei Yang Kingdom?"

"Yes." Long Qian Xing walked towards Ye Shu Ken and Nan Hua.

Ye Shu Ken's eyes showed wariness when he saw Long Qian Xing. After all, both Nan Hua and Long Qian Xing were dressed in Fei Yang Kingdom's armor, which was different from their armor. But seeing Ming Shi Hong not far behind Long Qian Xing, he took a step to the side.

"General Jun, How's your side?" Long Qian Xing asked.

"It's doing well, General Xing." Nan Hua raised her head. She looked at Ming Shi Hong behind Long Qian Xing and knew that he should be one of the three leaders. These three people all dressed the most conspicuously as if they were afraid that others would not know their identity. "Let's introduce ourselves again first." Long Qian Xing nodded at Ye Shu Ken beside Nan Hua. "I'm General Xing from Fei Yang Kingdom."

"Ye Shu Ken, the head of Ye Family and one of the three leaders." Ye Shu Ken glanced at Long Qian Xing. He looked at Ming Shi Hong and the man who came towards them with wary expression. "The one who come with you is Ming Shi Hong, the head of Ming Family. And the person who had just arrived is Pan Lei Yin, the head of Pan Family. We three families are the main leader in this battle."

Pan Lei Yin was also a middle aged man and looked around the same age as Ye Shu Ken. However, he looked much bigger with muscles and so on.

He frowned. "What happened here?"
