Forgotten Legend of the Bloodied Flower

Chapter 1918 Gather

But what made the man fear the most was because of Nan Hua's reputation among the people in the Mountain Tribe.

Who didn't know that Nan Hua once spent months in that room, doing who knows what.

All they could hear was the painful scream of the people who were carried there only to never return.

Thus, Nan Hua's reputation among the Mountain Tribe was also notorious.

But they didn't dare to speak out in fear that they would be caught and ended up dying in that room like the others…

…

Time passed quietly.

The battle ended at night with Yu Jin retreating back to the city, Nan Hua successfully defend, and Long Qian Xing destroyed the army.

Nan Hua was waiting on the gate as she saw Long Qian Xing came back with his army. They still looked very energetic as if they were ready to go for another round of battle. Even after fighting for a long period of time, they didn't look like they were affected in the slightest bit.

"Welcome back," Nan Hua greeted.

Long Qian Xing blinked his eyes. For a moment, he felt as if he was going back to Fei Yang Kingdom's Capital City and there's his wife waiting for him. It must be very good.

He quickly snap back from his trance and smiled warmly at Nan Hua. "I'm back."

Nan Hua nodded. "How's the battle over there?"

"I wounded General Ruan, but he escaped with his soldiers further to the north along the coast. I'm not sure about his condition." Long Qian Xing overwhelmed General Ruan after he activated his ability. It was not that remarkable and he himself was surprised that General Ruan was still able to escape.

But with that wound, it was estimated that General Ruan will not last long unless he had good doctors helping him. Coupled with the fact that he was running away, if he returned to Shi Long Kingdom, his reputation might not be very good. These people didn't really welcome the people who were incapable.

"I see."

"How about Adjutant Bo?"

"He should be busy treating his burns after being splashed with boiling water," Nan Hua replied calmly.

Long Qian Xing laughed. It seemed that they should be the one who had the advantage this time. However, he did hear that something happened on the back.

"Someone is betraying us again?"

Again.

Using this word 'again' made others wonder how many times it had happened before. Both Nan Hua and Long Qian Xing knew that there were many things that had happened to Fei Yang Kingdom's army recently.

After General Cao, Shangguan Xian's adjutant, and now theirs.

If this continued, the trust within the army will be weakened. It seemed that they would have to do some cleansing in the future to make sure that there would be no more of similar accident.

"People's heart can't accept temptation. The man is inside the hut. I'm waiting for Jin Jie to return to discuss this with her." Nan Hua knew that the man was someone Yu Jin knew.

In fact, the two people who betrayed Yu Jin today were the few people who could travel with Yu Jin and enter her close circle. Who would have thought that it was so easy for these people to turn their head?

Temptation of the world was too much for them to bear.

Giving advantage here and there had allowed them to move in accordance to what other people wanted.

"I see." Long Qian Xing didn't ask more.

He had seen more people in both lives. People would only show their true nature when they were facing crisis. It was also because of this that Long Qian Xing was not surprised at all when he heard that something had happened.

Because some people just couldn't bear the temptation or the threat.

It's as simple as that.

Drap! Drap! Drap!

Yu Jin returned from the other gate and rushed to Nan Hua as fast as possible. From the moment she heard that there was a betrayer from her army, she was furious.

These people who could enter her army were selected from the people who had followed her for years. Many of them were the annoying b*stard who had been using her as a tree hole back then and made her stressed out of her mind.

Now, someone even dared to turn their back against her.

How could she not be angry?

But the moment she heard the name of the person who betrayed her, the anger turned into more anger and shock.

"Hua'er!"

"Jin Jie." Nan Hua nodded at Yu Jin.

Yu Jin took a deep breath and looked at Nan Hua solemnly. "Is it true? The one inside is Wei Lian?"

Nan Hua nodded.

Hearing that, Yu Jin felt into silence. Anger, sadness, and various other emotions swirled within her mind. Wei Lian was one of the few people whom she had chosen to stay near her side and had followed her for more than a decade.

But he chose to turn his head now.

"I'll talk to him."

"He's there."

"Ok."

Yu Jin turned around and walked into the hut, the soldiers who were guarding quickly made their way and silently lit a candle for Wei Lian.

The angry Yu Jin is not something that many people could handle.

Bang!

The door was closed.

The insulation was not very good, but no one would purposely eavesdrop on the conversation between these two. They didn't want to court death yet.

"Hua'er, who is Wei Lian?" Long Qian Xing asked. He was not familiar with the people around Yu Jin aside from Wu Shan. It could be said that there were not many people around Yu Jin who usually came out and interacted with others, so their information was limited.

"He's fifth in command in the Mountain Tribe," Nan Hua replied. She paused for a moment and then added, "He's the husband of Ye Jian, the fourth in command of the Mountain Tribe."
