Chapter 2054 Departure
2054 Departure
The night passed by quietly.
And the next day, the army departed through the lake.
The shallow water was far from enough from being able to stop them. It was not like the previous waves where it swept countless soldiers because of how mighty it was. Nan Hua and Long Qian Xing stayed at the front as Long Qian Xing told more details of the war to Nan Hua. She needed to know these because the next battle wouldn’t be easy and without having any prior knowledge, it might put their lives in danger.
And the other soldiers were following not far behind them.
Yu Jin was in the middle, in front of her own soldiers, riding on her horse. She looked straight to the front, but her eyes were a bit unfocused at times.
“Are you tired, Jin’er?” Shan Yu, who was riding a horse beside Yu Jin, asked.
Even though Shan Yu was not a soldier, he learned how to ride horses many years ago. After all, his master often traveled to various places, so being able to ride horse was a skill that he needed to have.
In this war, he has been staying beside Yu Jin aside from the time when she had to go to lead her soldiers in war.
Shan Yu knew very well that even if he knew some martial arts, it was only enough to protect himself.
If he had to fight against those powerful soldiers, commander, of even the generals, Shan Yu was sure that he would die. In order not to hold Yu Jin back, Shan Yu had no other choice but to stay behind and didn’t disturb Yu Jin.
But now that they were not going on a battle but marching, Shan Yu would stay beside Yu Jin.
“No, I’m not tired.” Yu Jin shook her head.
The wine did get to her head a bit, but it was not that much. After all, Yu Jin didn’t dare to drink too much because they were all about to depart to the frontline.
She was just thinking about her brother a bit.
It was not only Wu Shan who was worried about her, but Yu Jin was also a bit worried about Wu Shan because she wouldn’t be able to take care of her little sworn brother again.
The little brat who used to be so annoying and naughty had now grow up.
How time passed.
Yu Jin sighed deeply.
“I’m just thinking about my brother,” Yu Jin admitted.
Shan Yu arched his eyebrows and then said, “He’ll be alright. He’s no longer a child
now.”
“I know.” Yu Jin pursed her lips.
She knew that much, but she couldn’t help but think about him and felt some worry for her younger brother.
Shan Yu looked at Yu Jin but said nothing more and stayed by her side. Sometimes, what one person needed most was the company of others instead of words, so he didn’t say anything and stayed by Yu Jin’s side.
…
The three families were staring at the army that was going further and further away. If they had to say, another reason why they were able to work together was because they were having these three generals from Fei Yang Kingdom who would lead them and helped them.
Because if they were only the three of them…
Fights between each other would be inevitable at some point.
“Now that they have left, it’s time for us to return and do reconstruction.” Ye Shu Ken looked at the other two. He showed a faint smile. “I’m sure that you would agree if we cease our battles for the time being, right?”
Pan Lei Yin frowned.
To be honest, Pan Family was indeed not in the position to contend with the other families right now. But if one had to say, everyone was suffering the same thing because they had lost many people and resources in order to win this war.
Their cooperation was also coming to an end and it was time for them to take care of their individual family matters.
“Fine,” Pan Lei Yin said calmly.
Ye Shu Ken chuckled.
He could see that even though Pan Lei Yin looked calm, but he understood that his family also needed the time.
The time when the three families were calling a truce would be used for them to grow stronger. And when the time limit was up, it was time for them to start their
competition once again.
Well, rather than competition it was more like their fight.
On the other hand, Ming Shi Hong was laughing. “Sure, I don’t mind at all!”
Looking at the easy going person, the other two resisted the urge to beat him up. They couldn’t understand why the Ming Family picked Ming Shi Hong as the family head even up until now.
However, it was not their business.
Right now, it was more important for them to go and started to rebuild their families
and various other resources.
As the three families were arguing, Wu Shan was also looking in the direction where the army was going.
He cupped his fist, silently saying goodbye to his sworn sisters and Fei Yang
Kingdom.
He hoped that in this war, they would come out victorious.
Once it was done, Wu Shan turned around and nodded at Young Leader Kui, Kui Yu
Na, who was giving him a smile.
“Let’s go back to the mountains.”
“Yes.”
<Long distance away, Middle of Shi Long Kingdom, the great river area>
The great river was the river in the middle of Shi Long Kingdom. It was known as the great river because of the sheer width of the river there. Not many people could pass through it without using the bridge that had been constructed for a long time.
And this bridge…
Was being protected by the army.
As for the general who lead?
It was General Gao who ran away from the south frontline. Even though he was injured, but he could still give order as he was awake.
