Forgotten Legend of the Bloodied Flower

"Fine if you say so." Yu Jin shrugged. She stretched her hand as the corner of her lips curled up to form a smile. "I heard that Great General Ji is famous for being smart and cunning. I have been itching to fight against him for a long time."

Great General Ji started to become famous in Great General Nan and the others era. It could be said that he was a bit late compared to them, but it was also because of his appearance that Fan Yi was able to contend with the other kingdoms.

If he hadn't been there, there was no doubt that Fan Yi Kingdom would have been swallowed by the other kingdoms.

Ever since then there were other talented people who supported the kingdom.

But it was still a fact that Great General Ji's presence alone could bring pressure to many people. Its effect was similar to when people heard that Great General Nan appeared where they would tense up.

"Mhm."

"And when he appears, I'll tell him straight away that this is the era that belongs to us, young people. It's already time for him to retire." Yu Jin's body was brimming with confidence. No matter how powerful Great General Ji was, she would make sure that she could defeat him.

There was no way she would admit defeat so easily.

Nan Hua didn't respond and merely looked into the distance. Great General Ji should have been there, right?

It meant today should be the first day for her to fight against this legendary general.

She's ready.

No matter what kind of igneous tactic he wanted to use, she will counter him.

…

<Zhang Xu Kingdom's side.>

"Great General Ji, welcome to Zhang Xu Kingdom."

Great General Ji waved his hand. He had come here along with his soldiers and some of his trusted confidantes after getting the agreement from Prime Minister Lei. As long as Fan Yi Kingdom could still gain some benefit, he didn't mind helping Zhang Xu Kingdom a bit.

Moreover, the opponent could be said to be someone whom many people wanted to kill from a long time.

"Queen Yu from Mountain Tribe and Jun Hua from Dark Moon Organization." Great General Ji looked at the opposite side. His eyes shone with interest.

It would be a lie to say that he was not interested to fight against these two young women who had started to make their names at the battlefield.

Great General Ji had a large body and looked rather striking in appearance. Despite already approaching fifties, he still looked like he was in his forties. Not to mention, his well defined muscles definitely made them wonder whether he was someone who specialized in strategizing or he was good in close combats?

No one knew for sure.

For the past decade, no one had managed to force Great General Ji to show his martial arts.

In fact, no one managed to get close to him. Great General Ji himself rapidly moving from the front of his soldiers to the back, yet he didn't participate in the battle himself. All he did was to give them the most beneficial order to win the battle.

"Leave at least one of them for me, all right?" Fang Sheng Lin blurted.

The Sixth Prince of Zhang Xu Kingdom frowned. He really wanted admonish this youth who didn't know any etiquette, but the sight of Fang Sheng Lin's eyes had rendered him unable to speak at all.

He didn't dare to say anything to Fang Sheng Lin.

"Don't be rude to Great General Ji." A man in his twenties with scholar robe looked at Fang Sheng Lin fiercely. He had stepped forward to be able to face Fang Sheng Lin better.

Even if there was a difference in their body's size, he didn't seem to be afraid at all.

"Oh?" Fang Sheng Lin grinned.

"Gao Xing Huan, it's fine." Great General Ji looked at Fang Sheng Lin, who seemed to be brimming in boundless energy. Such a youth was very promising as he had endless passion for martial arts and to get stronger.

As long as he could be used in the frontline, it would be good.

The man in scholar robe, Gao Xing Huan, glared in Fang Sheng Lin's direction once more before retreating. If it was not because of the agreement between Fan Yi Kingdom and Zhang Xu Kingdom, he would never want to step into this place even if he was asked to countless times.

Fang Sheng Lin then looked at Great General Ji. "Is it not allowed? I only come here because I can fight against them."

"You can."

"Alright, that settles it."

With that, Fang Sheng Lin turned around. He didn't really care about the strategy they would be using for the next battle. For him, those didn't have much impact on him. As long as he could step forward and fought against either Yu Jin or Jun Hua, it was all that mattered to him.

Great General Ji looked in the direction of Fang Sheng Lin before turning his attention to the general who was observing the situation. He was the one with the highest rank aside from the Sixth Prince of Zhang Xu Kingdom around.

"I'll be taking the command if you don't mind."

The general smiled and cupped his fist. "Since Prime Minister Lei had asked for your help, this one will naturally not have any objection."

"That's good to hear."

The Sixth Prince of Zhang Xu Kingdom still feel a bit dissatisfied. He wanted to be the one in charge so that he would brag to his father and gain better qualification compared to his brothers. But when he saw Great General Ji's gaze, he swallowed all of the words back into his throat.

Forget it.

He still treasured his life.

Great General Ji's gaze looked as if those who dared to go against him would die miserably without intact corpse.

"Prepare for battle."

"Yes, Great General Ji!"
