Forgotten Legend of the Bloodied Flower

Chapter 585 The Enraged General Long

The gong signaling the end of the battle for the day sounded and the two army retreated. Great General Nan had heard about what happened at the East and felt a bit heavy. He didn’t expect that out of the three of them, he would actually be the last one to stay alive.

’Old Pal, didn’t you say that I’m the first one who will die because my strength is lacking. Why are you the one who departed first?’ Great General Nan looked at the sky and sighed.

It seemed that his time hadn’t come yet.

”Great General Nan! General Long is marching to the East after ordering his soldiers to eat quickly!”

Great General Nan, who was originally thinking of how to reorganize the soldiers, was stunned speechless. He hadn’t had the time to care for what had happened on the other side of the battlefield but it seemed that General Long heard the news faster than him.

”What happened there?”

”Young Commander Long fell into the river along with Heavenly General Zhang. It’s unknown whether he’s still alive or not.”

Hearing that, Great General Nan was silent. There was a murderous flash within his eyes when he heard what had happened there. To think that the East Area ended up being the one with the biggest predicament.

”Let him be.”

”Great General Nan?” the soldier was stunned.

”Since he’s angry and insisted on avenging his son, what can I do?” Great General Nan shrugged his shoulder. “Besides, with River General Kui wounded and Heavenly General Gao’s death, it would take some time for them to reorganize it. Even without General Long, I can still fight against those people.”

Great General Nan paused for a moment and furrowed his eyebrows. Now that General Long was marching to the East, doesn’t it mean that he actually lacked personnel in this area?

”Tell the soldiers to finish eating quickly and prepare for night raid.”

”Yes, General!”

From what Great General Nan knew about River General Kui, he wouldn’t let a chance like this slip. Even though the two sides knew that there would surely be an attack, River General Kui wouldn’t mind and still proceed with his plan. It was because he was sure that without General Long, things would be easy to handle.

”How’s the extent of River General Kui’s wound?”

”The report stated that River General Kui was stabbed in either his stomach or chest. He can’t get out of his tent and the doctors are getting in and out. The soldiers are also receiving his order from the tent.”

”I see.”

Great General Nan had just received news of the outrageous thing his granddaughter did. He really didn’t know whether he should cry or laugh or be angry when he heard that because he knew very well that Nan Hua’s ability had long far surpassed of his other grandsons. He was worried about her but he knew that she wouldn’t listen to him when she had other intention.

Since she had already did something so outrageous, it was clear that she would in the limelight later.

”Tell the other soldiers to prepare.”

”Yes!”

Nan Luo had just finished eating when he heard that they had to be prepared for night raid. He was so stumped that he nearly dropped the empty bowl. “There’s going to be a night battle too?”

”General Long is heading to the East and cross the river with his soldiers.” Nan Hua had already known about this matter. She was calmer than most other soldiers who were nervous because they had to fight in the middle of the night. She stood up. “Our task is just to defend today. There’s no need to attract more troublesome things to us.”

”Got it.”

Nan Luo rubbed his nose. He felt that the one who did outrageous thing was actually his twin sister and not him. But since she said that, how could he refute her?

He decided to just accept it.

It didn’t matter that much since in the eyes of others, she should be moving under his order.

”Prepare for battle!”

”Yes!”

The soldiers were nervous, but they were also slightly confident in what they could do.

At the same time, Nan Hua was rubbing the handle of her sword as her brain was thinking. She was thinking about River General Kui and knew that there were two adjutants who had great strength protecting River General Kui all the time. The one who came to protect River General Kui back then was one of them.

She had received the report from Nan Si about the people around River General Kui, so she knew that one of the two adjutants who were protecting River General Kui had died. This leave only one person whom River General Kui trusted a lot.

Assassinating River General Kui wouldn’t be easy.

Those soldiers around him were too many and most of them wouldn’t hesitate to sacrifice their lives should it be necessary to protect their general. Thus, Nan Hua could only gather some information from the Dark Moon Organization men she had spread out.

’After this, it’s time for me to spread the men to the other three kingdoms further.’

She was too focused on Fei Yang Kingdom back then because the internal problem of Dark Moon Organization was a bit too much. Though, there were also a lot of experts inside that she could use after some reorganization

It was much better than scouting people from the beginning or train them from scratch since her position didn’t exactly allow her to do everything by herself.

Bang! Splash!

Hearing the sound from the river, Nan Hua glanced over. She could see that there were a lot of soldiers who were following General Long crossing the river. They seemed to be determined to cross the river without caring whether they could actually make it safely or not.

On the other side of the river, Shangguan Xiao was staring at the group of soldiers coming with a complicated expression.

He knew that General Long would surely come after hearing what had happened to Long Qian Xing.

But…

He didn’t expect that they would charge in right at the night. Did the soldier have enough rest after the brutal fight?

Seeing their excited and determined state, Shangguan Xiao really couldn’t say anything.
