Flowers Bloom from Battlefield

Chapter 81 - Journey



Yan has transformed himself with his disguise as Young Noble Han. Wearing a face mask and merchant clothes, there was nothing resembling his previous self, except the build. He scowled at the old man in front of him with a resentful feeling.

"If you want to go to the Yuan Kingdom, you should have gone by yourself. Why did you involve me?" Yan said, annoyed.

The old man, Nanglong Souka, just laughed. "What kind of disguise is better than a merchant's? Besides, I know that you're not one to abandon your friends in need."

"Who would want to be friends with someone as shameless as you? Why don't you go to the Jun family residence and bother that other shameless old man like you."

Nanglong Souka has been called shameless a lot so he didn't mind it. But upon hearing Yan's words, his brows creased.

"Don't compare me with that shameless old man!"

"…"

Both of them were first class in terms of shamelessness. Yan felt like he could not communicate with someone like him any longer. This old man was getting on his nerves even more as the time passed by. He didn't want to bother talking with him again.

"How long till we arrive at Yuan Kingdom?"

"2 weeks is my estimation. Don't bother me anymore," Yan picked up his book and started reading, ignoring the old man in front of him.

Nanglong Souka felt that Yan and Nanglong Soujin are really similar. No wonder they are close friends. Knowing that Yan wouldn't want to talk to him anymore, Nanglong Souka leaned back and closed his eyes, resting.

"Uncle, I know that you've been busy since the war started, but couldn't you at least send someone to fetch me?" Jun Min looked at his uncle who was busy looking at the map.

"Oh, Jun Hu-Min, you arrived faster than i expected. Did you have enough rest?" Jun Hua's uncle, Jun Qing, look at the pale complexion on his niece's face. Frowning a little, he knew that Jun Min must have been sprinting to reach this place as fast as possible.

"Don't worry about me, uncle. Has the war started?"

"Yes, and the soldiers on the opposite side have increased even more. There must be some reinforcements from the capital. You rest first, the battle will begin again tomorrow."

Jun Min shook his head, "I need to think of a strategy first, uncle."

"Sleep, this is an order."

Looking at the solemn face of his uncle, Jun Min realized that there was no way he could disobey his order. Usually, he wouldn't have arrived at the border by this time, but because he was rushing, he had arrived even earlier. With a helpless feeling, Jun Min returned to his room.

Jun Qing watched the back of Jun Min leaving. He was surprised to find that the little kid had arrived here even faster than before. During his time in the capital, he couldn't have been training his horse-riding, right? Shaking his head, Jun Qing focused on the map again.

"Yasha, tell the Dark squad to gather. Jun Min has returned."

"Yes, Sir."

Jun Qing smiled slightly. Over the years, Jun Min's ability has risen above him and even has a powerful squad under him who's completely loyal to the kid. He was not sure how Jun Min selected or trained them, but he knew that each and everyone of them was dangerous. Having these kind of powerful people around him, he knew that Jun Min was going to be alright.

The Dark Squad was a secret to other people, but within the commanders' ranks, they have long known about this name. Most of the ordinary soldiers would only know that their general was someone under Jun Min. Only upon advancing in their rank would he know that these generals were part of a group named Dark Squad.

"Yabei, has Yamin returned?" Jun Min said upon reaching his room.

A bulky man appeared from the corridor, with a big axe on his back. He bowed respectfully towards Jun Min.

"Replying to Young Master, Yamin hasn't arrived yet."

Jun Min nodded. He had expected it to be so. He looked at the man before her. "Your squad won't participate in the first battle. I will use the third, fourth, fifth, and seventh squad together this time. Relay this message to the Dark Squad and have them gather together in the morning."

"Yes, Young Master."

Jun Min stepped into his room as Yabei disappeared again. Dark Squad is the name of his personal squad consisting of 12 people excluding him. Each of the members are people whom he had selected since young. 10 of them are now generals and 2 of them are assassins, Yamin and Yasha included.

The room where he used to stay was still the same as before he left. The furniture was not moved at all, but there was no dust in the room. The servants must have been cleaning this room diligently and didn't forget to never move his things.

The corners of Jun Min's lips moved up slightly. The first time he got this room, he was shocked by the size. He had been pestering his uncle about it, but his uncle just said that there was no way he could provide a smaller room for him. He could only accept it and use this room since then.

Picking up the things on his table, Jun Min noticed his training sword. The dents all around it has made the sword unrecognizable. He picked it up and sized it up for a moment. It had been a long time since he used this sword because he had never been subjected to training again by his uncle for a long time. After all, he was steadily rising in ranks at that time.

Jun Min put down the war report and laid down on his bed. He could faintly feel that there were several people from the Dark Squad coming and guarding his room from afar. With his keen senses, he kept on watching them for a while before falling asleep because of fatigue.
