Forgotten Legend of the Bloodied Flower

"But…" Long Ai Ning pouted.

"Master and Miss had allowed you to take a look because they know that you won't do anything, but you should still be careful not to overstep your bounds." Chu Yue was calmer than the strict Lou. She looked at Long Ai Ning with a 'kind' smile. "There are some things that we, as the subordinate, shouldn't see."

Long Ai Ning shivered for some reasons when she saw Chu Yue's smile. Chu Yue was raised to be Nan Hua's right hand and knew both martial arts and noble etiquette. Even if Chu Yue had never used this etiquette openly, it was still engrained within her bones.

She could only nod unwillingly.

"Okay, Nan Si, can you help me down."

"Um." Nan Si reached out to hold Long Ai Ning's hand and then helped her to descend the uneven rock.

Lou shook his head when he watched this scene. "Master and Miss is pampering their subordinate too much."

"It's because they're kind that can allow us to interact with each other without the need to worry so much," Chu Yue replied with a faint smile. "I'll return first, Lou."

"Yes." Lou nodded.

They all silently returned to their respective work place.

Nan Si watched as everyone walked away and also silently made his way to the soldiers. He would continue to blend with them and helped Nan Hua when it was necessary. …

<Long distance away, border between Fei Yang Kingdom and Shi Long Kingdom, east Fei Yang Kingdom and north Shi Long Kingdom>

Clang! Clang! Clang!

The defeat of General Fang didn't change much in terms of the situation on the frontline. At the very least, for General Feng, the situation worsened because there was more and more reinforcement from Shi Long Kingdom.

Maintaining the defense line alone was difficult to do much less rushing into Shi Long Kingdom's territory.

And today, General Feng felt even more despairs and anger.

"Damn it, why is he being sent here?"

The flag was clearly written the word: Bao.

The most famous Heavenly General in Shi Long Kingdom, who usually active at the north east area of Shi Long Kingdom and killed countless people there. He was titled as Heavenly General after the death of Heavenly General Gao many years ago.

And ever since then, he had wreaked havoc in many areas. It was said that he was busy dealing with the rebellions at the northwest area of Shi Long Kingdom and will not participate in the war with Fei Yang Kingdom.

But it didn't seem to be true.

"General Feng, what should we do?"

"Prepare for retreat!" General Feng yelled.

"Yes!"

Clang! Clang! Clang!

The soldiers at the front felt immense fear when they saw this flag. It was not because they had met with Heavenly General Bao personally. But it was because they knew what this Heavenly General was famous of.

On the other hand, the soldiers from Shi Long Kingdom was boiling with excitement. They wanted to defeat General Feng and helped their comrade at the cities south of their location. But because of General Feng's threat in his appearance here, they couldn't do anything.

Now that Heavenly General Bao is here, they felt that they could do it!

Clang! Clang! Clang!

Heavenly General Bao looked at the chaotic battlefield and snorted. "That General Wu is getting more and more useless."

His adjutant laughed wretchedly. "Shall we deal with them, Heavenly General Bao?"

"No need." Heavenly General Bao shook his head. "Those old fogies will be yelling at my ear again."

He didn't really care about Shi Long Kingdom as a whole and only became a general because it was easier to do what he wanted with this title. Before being a general, he was a famous bandit in Shi Long Kingdom.

Because he was too powerful, the prime minister came and negotiated with him in order to let him work for them.

He could still fight a lot and even loot those rebels' belongings. Thus, Heavenly General Bao agreed and became part of Shi Long Kingdom's military. But unlike those other generals who were fighting against other generals, he usually dealt with other bandits or rebels.

The main reason was naturally because it would allow him to loot them and earn a lot of money.

He liked money and usually spend them very quickly too.

That was why he was more interested in fighting the rebels.

When he was given the title of Heavenly General, he was given even more freedom to launch more attacks. But because his passion was more in earning money, he was not very interested in attacking other kingdom.

Because he knew that he couldn't destroy their cities or he would be scolded again by the other Heavenly General or those annoying ministers.

Rather than facing them, it would be better for him to stay at his territory and deal with the annoying rebels or bandits.

Thanks to him, these rebels and bandits were all eliminated.

At least, in one area.

This time, he received an Imperial summon, well, the direct order from the people from the Imperial Family. He had to participate in this annoying war and fight against Fei Yang Kingdom's soldiers. "General Feng?" Heavenly General Bao looked at the flags and nodded. "Kill them all!"

"UOoooooooo!"

The soldiers under Heavenly General Bao rushed towards General Feng's soldiers. Clang! Slash! Bang!

Those at the frontline bear the brunt almost instantly. Even if they were using the shield, it didn't seem to be of any use. They were pushed back almost instantly, killing countless people in just one motion. "Retreat!" General Feng yelled.

"Yes!"

The soldiers under General Feng started to retreat in orderly manner. Even if there were fear within their heart when they saw Heavenly General Bao's capabilities, they still forced themselves to calm down. Clang! Clang! Clang!

Within the army, Leader Ji, Ji Han Yu, looked at Heavenly General Bao and turned to look at the others. "What's the chance for me to win against him?"
