Forgotten Legend of the Bloodied Flower

“Chase after them!” the commander who followed after the special soldiers finally caught up and saw that the soldiers from Fei Yang Kingdom shamelessly ran away. He gritted his teeth and gave the order.

“Yes!”

These special soldiers rushed towards the forest.

But along the way, they could faintly sense the annoying smell of herbs that they hated the most. The same type of medicine that had been used by Long Qian Xing’s soldiers all the time in order to hinder their enhancement.

By the time they reached the forest behind, their reaction and power was no longer the same as it used to be.

“Attack!”

Clang! Clang! Slash!

Long Mu An immediately ordered the soldiers who previously ran away to attack. It immediately started an all out melee with the soldiers from Zhang Xu Kingdom at the entrance of the forest and within the forest.

Blood splattered and with these soldiers were losing the advantage from their medicine and enhancement, Long Mu An’s soldiers could deal with them much easier than it used to be before.

Swish! Clang Slash!

The battle continued fiercely.

….

<Long Qian Xing’s side>

The third group of the special soldiers were rushing towards Long Qian Xing and his army too. Long Qian Xing watched those special soldiers rushing over, not feeling any pain nor scared of anything. All they knew was that they had to fulfill the order given to them.

He pursed his lips.

As he had thought, he disliked this very much.

The medicine and methods that the Zhang Xu Kingdom mused had completely wiped out the humanity within these soldiers and made them to be nothing but tools.

As a human being, this was not something he could agree with.

He was ruthless and cunning.

But he would never truly treat others as nothing more than tools and made them unable to do anything but to follow order.

“Step back to the valley behind!”

“Yes!”

The soldiers under Long Qian Xing followed Long Qian Xing and retreated in orderly manner. Their attitude was extremely good as they covered their comrades from the attack from the soldiers from Zhang Xu Kingdom.

Even when they were retreating, they didn’t allow the soldiers from Zhang XU Kingdom from taking advantage of them in the slightest bit.

It was really good.

Clang! Clang! Clang!

The sound of metal clashing continued to reverberate, filling the battlefield with various sound of battles. It was chaotic yet the soldiers were trying their best to maintain the order as much as possible.

Swish!

Soon, the soldiers under Long Qian Xing retreated towards the valley, completely bypassing the village where the villagers were previously staying.

“Call the villagers!” Strategist Mang looked at the villagers who were hiding in the hut with dissatisfaction. “What are they doing hiding like rats? Come out and help out!”

He had already failed miserably to kill Long Qian Xing so fast, so he had to at least try to defend his dignity as much as possible through this battle. They didn’t even reach Lin Family Mountain, how were they supposed to deliver the medicine out this way?𝞸𝑽𝗅xt.𝐜𝒐𝗆

Thus, Strategist Mang just wanted to use all the cards that can be used.

“Yes, Strategist Mang!”

Clang! Clang!

Bang! Bang!

“Come out! Take out whatever weapon you have and help in the battle!” The soldiers banged on the door of these villagers, rushing them out. Even if this villager was ‘conquered’ by Long Qian Xing before, the soldiers from Long Qian Xing’s side had already retreated out of the village.

So they could pull these villagers to work for Zhang Xu Kingdom again with the rhetoric that they were part of Zhang Xu Kingdom before.

“Y…Yes!”

These soldiers banged the door of several houses and the men came out, bowing their head and carried various types of weapon.

The soldiers from Zhang Xu Kingdom was definitely not satisfied with their choice of weapon, but there was nothing that they could do.

“Hurry over!”

Clang! Bang! Slash!

“Maintain the formation!” Long Qian Xing gave the order to the soldiers around him, watching as these special soldiers reached the forefront and finally clashed with his soldiers.

Bang!

These special soldiers didn’t care about anything and kept on attacking as fiercely as possible.

They were doing their best to make sure that they could win this battle.

Clang! Clang!

Strategist Mang watched from the top of his horse, he was frowning. The battlefield this time was relatively big and he felt that it was really hard to deal with and to monitor all areas.

But the most important thing was….

“These special soldiers are not effective. As expected, General Xing also knows the medicine.” Strategist Mang frowned.

One of the reasons why he brought these special soldiers over was because He wanted to know who among the generals in Fei Yang Kingdom didn’t know the medicine that could render these people not to be so effective.

Great General Wei had been using it so far.

And it was extremely annoying.

Now, he knew that General Xing also had it, which meant that the battle wouldn’t be so easy like this.

“Charge forward! Push them out of the area!” Strategist Mang yelled.

“Yes!”

Clang! Clang! Clang!

The soldiers continued to clash with each other. Long Qian Xing’s soldiers so far maintained their formation just right on the valley not far from the village. It was somewhat wider but it didn’t affect the flow of the battlefield that much.

The clash between the two armies were still extremely fierce.

Clang! Clang! Clang! Slash! Bang! Slash!

Long Qian Xing watched the soldiers in front of him while his eyes were following the movement on the battlefield. The soldiers from Zhang Xu Kingdom were still pressing forward even if the special soldiers were not very effective.  Suddenly, the corner of his lips curled up to form a smirk. “Raise the flag.”

The soldier who followed him raised the flag in his hand without hesitation.

Swish! Swish! Swish!
