Forgotten Legend of the Bloodied Flower

<At the gate>

"The inauguration will start soon. We'll have to make a move." A man looked at the others around him and pointed at the west gate right in front of them. They were still within the forest and about to make a turn soon.

"Have you prepared all the identification?"

"As long as the gate is opened even a little bit, we'll be able to get in." The man sneered.

They were using large carriage transport that they have stolen not long ago. It was a carriage belonged to a merchant who frequently come to the Capital City to deliver some wheats and other types of food.

By using this carriage, they could enter the Capital City.

Just as they were about to turn a corner, there was a whistling sound followed by a rain of arrows.

"There's an attack!" The man was stunned.

Swish! Bang!

*neigh*

The horses were scared when it suddenly faced with a lot of attacks right at the very beginning. They neighed uncontrollably, trying to get away from the source of the attack as fast as possible.

Not a single one wanted to stay here.

Animals were more sensitive than humans. They could sense the danger and naturally their instinct told them that they shouldn't be here. Thus, the horses were noisy, kicking and neighing all the time in order to get away.

"Damn! Who are they?"

Swish!

As several men appeared, the man noticed the logo on those men clothes. He nearly vomited blood when he saw that.

"What the hell are you people from Forest Fire doing here???"

The man whom Nan Hua met last time merely looked at the group of people in front of him coldly. His eyes were glancing at the carriages filled with food as he was itching to take it all.

The west area in Fei Yang Kingdom would definitely need more food when it was Winter. If he could get this much, they would be able to solve their problem much faster. This would truly benefit him and his group.

He felt glad that he agreed with the cooperation that was proposed not long ago.

"Take the food and kill them."

"Yes!"

The man was so angry that he nearly vomited blood once more. They were targeting this carriage? He thought that he could finally find a loophole to enter the Capital City, but it ended up being attacked by another organization?

His heart bleed so much.

"Why the hell are you coming here, ah! Target other people!" The few people in the group were desperate.

Clang! Slash!

The sound of fighting began.

The leader from Forest Fire naturally didn't care about what the other party thought.

He received an order from Dark Moon Organization to attack this merchant carriage who would be coming through the west gate. They had to do it before they were noticed by the guards, so he decided to do it when the group was still in the forest.

As for why the Dark Moon Organization wanted him to attack it?

It was not his business.

All he knew was that the Dark Moon Organization merely asked for some money from them while they could take all the food inside.

It was a worthwhile trade.

So he directly agreed.

The battle continued to ensue in this area.

Without even using the soldiers of Fei Yang Kingdom, this side of the attack was completely solved. No one would know that there was someone who had helped and would only think of it as an ordinary bandit attack.

Who made them disguise as an ordinary merchant?

No one would be thinking that these people were all actually mercenary who were paid to create some problems during this sensitive period of time.

…

<The East Gate.>

"Why are you here?" Chi Song Lian looked at Long Qian Xing with furrowed eyebrows. He didn't like this young man and that would never change in this lifetime. When he got this mission, he thought that he could get away from Long Qian Xing.

Who would have thought that this damn man would appear out of nowhere?

Chi Song Lian wanted to curse so much.

"I was tasked to patrol the East and South area." Long Qian Xing was calm. Because this was an important matter, Emperor Yang Zhou also asked him to take care of the gate and the problems that might crop up out here.

There can be attack from inside and outside. This time, he personally asked to guard the wall so that no one could make their move and disturb the inauguration that had been waited for so long.

He glanced at Chi Song Lian and realized that things were still relatively peaceful over here. "Are you sure that you can handle it?"

"I'm not that useless, Long Qian Xing!" Chi Song Lian gritted his teeth.

Long Qian Xing arched his eyebrows. As usual, this hot tempered young master was really easy to annoy. Just some words were more than enough to make Chi Song Lian lost his temper.

He would like to make Chi Song Lian angrier in normal times, but this time, he needed this man to be quite level headed. After all, the battle here will be very important and might affect the future of Fei Yang Kingdom.

Their grudge with each other could be solved later.

There were still enough time in the future for Long Qian Xing to entertain himself without affecting today's mission.

"I see. However, I would like to remind you that my name is not something you can casually say, Young Commander Chi."

Chi Song Lian's eyes narrowed. It was indeed impolite of him to call Long Qian Xing with his name directly. He just couldn't help it when he saw Long Qian Xing come here and disturbed him.

The east area was handed to him this time to prevent anyone from attacking the gate and forced their way into the Capital City. If the inauguration ceremony was disrupted, they would have to start from the very beginning once again.
