Chapter 548 First Day – Middle Area (1)
The commander's eyes gleamed when he heard what Nan Luo said. "A boy who's still wet with his mother's milk sure knows no fear!"
Clang! Clang!
The two of them clashed and Xiao Yan took this chance to gather the soldiers back to the group. Since Nan Luo was not advancing anymore, the soldiers managed to catch up with him.
"What should we do now?" Xiao Yan muttered when he saw the large number of enemy soldiers were pouring in.
"Protect those two. Let them have the duel." Nan Hua knew that only by tempering himself would Nan Luo grow stronger. The commander was more or less had the same strength as him, so he would be the perfect sparring partner for Nan Luo.
"What?" Xiao Yan was stunned.
Swish!
In a blink of the eyes, Nan Hua had disappeared from her position and rushed over to the other side. The soldiers from Wei Da Kingdom were not able to match her movement in the slightest bit as they fell one by one.
Xiao Yan's eyelids twitched when he saw this. It seemed that with Nan Hua around, Nan Luo didn't have to worry about not having anyone to protect him. Nan Hua could do the job perfectly.
What if there was another commander coming?
But Xiao Yan's worry was needless.
The only reason why a commander rushed over was because he was ordered by the higher commander to deal with the person who managed to enter deep into the army so fast like that. Since Nan Luo had stopped there and Nan Hua was only cleaning up the soldiers around them, they were not really eye catching.
No one would come for the time being.
Time passed swiftly as they maintained this position. Such a small number of soldiers, they barely made any ripple. Just like how a drop of water in the ocean barely made any ripple.
Slash!
*pant* *pant*
Nan Luo wiped his sweat as he looked at the fallen commander before him. He noticed that his soldiers were all already surrounding him. "Since we're all here, let's go deep into the enemy's line!"
"You're just going to kill yourselves if you do that." Nan Hua glanced at Nan Luo.
"…Fine."
"Let's target other commanders. There are a few of them."
Most commanders were dressed in eye catching attire. There were several reasons of that. One of them was in order for them to be able to be noticed by his soldiers and give order easily. The other was for moral support for the soldiers. Another reason was for them to be the target of the stronger ones.
But it was not without a risk.
If the one targeting them was someone who was much stronger, then they would definitely unable to defend themselves.
"In that case, let's go!"
With that, the small group of barely 100 people (some of the soldiers had died on the way), rushed towards the few commanders at the front. Some of them were proven to be quite a long battle for Nan Luo while the others could be easily handled by him.
One by one, the small commanders fell.
Until…
Clang! Clang!
"Young Master, watch out!"
Clang!
Nan Luo raised his sword to block in time. He looked at the large commander in front of him, his eyes widening a bit. Before they went, Feng Ao Kuai had given him some crash course about the enemy's attire and their ranking. The person in front of him… was a rather high ranking one.
"Oh, you're not bad, young boy."
The commander from Wei Da Kingdom swung his sword once more before retreating. His eyes were looking at Nan Luo with heated gaze. "I have noticed that you're targeting the weaker ones. For someone at your stature, shouldn't you change your target?"
Nan Luo gripped his sword tighter. Every cell in his body was screaming, telling him that the person in front of him was stronger than him. It would be dangerous for him to fight the other party.
Yet, at the same time, he wanted to.
"Someone like you?" Nan Luo asked in a low voice. "That sounds to be pretty interesting. Sure~."
Swish! Clang! Clang! Clang!
The two of them exchanged several blows. Nan Luo could feel that the commander before him was stronger, but not to the point of making him cower in fear like the others whom he had faced before. This one still allowed him some maneuver to fight albeit his strength was not able to match him yet.
"Young Master…" Xiao Yan was a bit worried.
"Let him fight." Nan Hua had finished killing the soldiers around her. She stood still on her place, blood dripped from her swords. Her dark obsidian eyes were looking at Nan Luo and the commander from Wei Da Kingdom who were busy fighting against each other.
The commander from Wei Da Kingdom was stronger than Nan Luo, but he was also a good opponent.
If Nan Luo managed to win, his strength and capabilities would soar. It was good for his experience.
"But…"
"If anything happens, I'll take cover."
Xiao Yan was stunned. He thought for a moment before nodding. Since Nan Hua, who has much better skill than him, said that, he would believe it. The twins were close to each other and naturally, they would take care of each other.
There was no way Nan Hua would possibly let Nan Luo continued to fight if he was not the match of the commander from Wei Da Kingdom.
"Protect the commander!" Xiao Yan yelled and the soldiers in Nan Luo's army began to move in orderly manner. They circled the area and tried to maintain the formation along with those of Wei Da Kingdom who followed their commander. They wanted to let these two fight freely.
…
The fierce fight continued elsewhere.
At the beginning of the fight, Long Qian Xing looked at the young man beside him. "Chi Song Lian, there are four generals there. Do you want to face one of them or leave them to me?"
