Flowers Bloom from Battlefield

After ensuring that Jun Hua was resting, Soujin walked outside. His eyes gleamed with ruthlessness at the thought of Lan Pan hurting the girl.

"Lou, find out Lan Pan's location."

"Yes, Master."

With a swift movement, Lou already disappeared from the shadow. Soujin stayed rooted in his place for a moment before moving towards Yan room. There, the two men were arguing over something trivial. They stopped the moment Soujin came in.

"How is she?"

"She is fine," Soujin answered. "There is no need to stay here any longer. The two of you can return first."

"What? We have just arrived earlier this day!" Yan felt that he was truly wasting time if he should travel back to the city right after he arrived in Yuan Kingdom.

"I have gotten all the information needed. Jun Hua and her grandfather come here for the same reason."

Ming Hui nodded. "I see, you got the information from them. They are really great to have the same mind with you."

"Great minds think alike."

Yan rolled his eyes. That was one thing for your business here to be over, but it was not the same with him! He was a merchant, at least his second identity was, and there was no way he would let the opportunity like this slip by.

"I still have business as Young Noble Han."

Soujin looked at him. "Don't you have to find who the spy is?"

Yan face turned sour. Soujin had just made him remember the things he didn't want to remember. The ambush they experienced was targeted at him, but somehow the enemies were ready with the fact that there was Soujin there. The one they didn't expect to come was Ming Hui since they didn't seem to recognize him.

It was understandable that they didn't know Ming Hui. He rarely traveled with his real face before now since he needed to hide his identity and never leave the capital. Still, for the enemy to know their lineup was truly something.

"Before we leave, did you tell anyone that you and Soujin will go?" Ming Hui asked.

Yan thought about it for a moment. He was about to shake his head when he remembered something. But that should have been impossible…

"I'm not sure, probably there is some spy hiding near the hospital?"

Ming Hui rolled his eyes. There was no way Soujin wouldn't know that there was someone near them unless that person has martial arts even higher than Soujin. The number of people that can do that was truly very few and wouldn't have bother listening in to their talk.

Soujin stayed silent at Yan remark for a moment. "If it happens again, don't hesitate."

Yan smiled wryly. It seemed that Soujin had managed to find out just by observing his reaction. This man was truly inhuman, how can ordinary person expect to contend with him?

Although he had his suspicion, there was still no concrete evidence and he can't go running his mouth about things that he was not sure. Not to mention, the person they were talking about was someone whom he trusted.

Ming Hui sighed. "Do what you want, just remember not to threaten your position before we are ready."

"I won't forget."

Their plan was not something they could cast away just like that. Years of planning and doing the preparation will go to waste should they be reckless. Obviously, they don't want their effort to go to drain.

"I need to handle some matter first," Soujin suddenly stood up.

Ming Hui and Yan looked towards each other. They have a guess what kind of matter this Soujin wanted to do first.

"Be careful, Soujin. Even if that man already wounded badly, he's still quite an opponent for you," Ming Hui reminded him.

Soujin nodded his head, "Don't worry. I know what I'm doing."

The moment he walked out from the room, Lou appeared before him and bowed down respectfully, "Master, Lan Pan appears near the border once again. He's bringing his lance and starts his massacre again."

"Let's go," he was about to walk towards the border when Jun Zhenxian opened his door and looked towards the young man. The old man's eyes seemed to hold rage and dissatisfaction.

"Let me watch the fight," at the very least, he wanted to see the end of someone who had chopped off his arm and wounded his granddaughter badly. Compared with losing an arm, the feeling of losing his only granddaughter was worse. He didn't wish for the same thing to happen again.

With this arm, there was no way he could serve in the military anymore, but he still could maintain the business that the Jun family has.

"Take care of yourself," Soujin answered and walked towards the border. He quickly spotted the big man in front of them, who was bathed with blood and the numerous death soldiers near him. From the way he fought, there was no way they could guess that he was wounded.

Lan Pan looked towards the young general as he smiled, "Where is that young lady?"

"Today I will be your opponent," Soujin said icily. He took out his sword and leaped down from the wall. Jun Zhenxian eyes nearly popped out at Soujin action for he remembered the same thing that Jun Hua did just a few days before.

Looking towards the ground from the wall made him surprised at how courageous Jun Hua before. She didn't hesitate at all to jump from such height just to save him.

"I feel like I keep on failing as a grandfather."

His original intention of coming here was to help Jun Hua from getting into trouble. But instead of helping her, he has become a burden in the fight. If not for her courageous and reckless decision, he won't be able to save his life.

Gazing to the faraway place, Jun Zhenxian felt his determination renewed. So what if he was already an old person? As long as he was still breathing, he would do his best to support Jun family. With that though in his head, he looked towards the battle again, determined to see everything until the end.

Lan Pan took out his lance. His fatigue already decreased a lot, and he had treated his shoulder to a certain degree. He indeed waited for this person in front of him when he stopped the battle before because he knew that he wouldn't be able to fight with the other party at his previous condition, "Well, it doesn't matter as long as you can match me."

Soujin narrowed his eyes as he moved his feet and started to attack the man in front of him. He wouldn't forgive the other party for hurting the little girl. Since he had delivered himself to him, he would surely make the other party meet his end in his hand.

As the two strikes reach each other, the one being pushed back was Lan Pan. Lan Pan's eyes bulged out in disbelief and he roared before charging over again. There was no way he could accepted defeat and thus the battle became heated.

"Do you think Soujin will win?"

Jun Hua looked towards the wall as the sound of the battle reached her ears. She heard the servants discuss the matter from outside when she woke up, so she tilted her head towards the direction of the border. She wished that she could see the fight herself, but her body was not in the condition to move so much. By the time she reached there, the fight should have ended.

"He will win," Jun Hua muttered out and her mouth curved into a smile.

Soujin attacked Lan Pan hard and in one of his strike directed towards the other party wound, which made it opened again. During that one chance, he slashed his sword towards Lan Pan's neck, making a deep wound. Lan Pan's eyes widened and in the next second he fell to the ground, no longer breathing.

Jun Zhenxian looked downwards with complicated feeling. That young man was indeed amazing.

Soujin clenched his hand. He will train even harder again because he knew that he could only defeat the other party because he was already wounded. Really, what was that Lan Family thinking by creating such a monster?
