Clang! Clang!
The sound of battle could be heard.
Many people from Lin Family fell that day and some others were injured. This made Fourth Old Master Lin so angry that he almost vomited blood. The Lin Family had been doing well so far lately, but it was getting worse because of this incident.
A third of the elders in Lin Family passed away. Many of the younger generations were also killed because they tried to chase after the intruder.
"Fourth Elder, we just need to be patience," another elder reminded. "Master Lin Sun had already accepted the assignment from Prime Minister Lei. As long as we could finish this task well, we'll be able to get more resources and more people to use for Lin Family. Zhang Xu Kingdom will no longer restrict our movements."
"I know." Fourth Old Master Lin naturally knew this agreement. However, he still felt his stomach churning in hatred because of what had happened.
If only it was possible, he wished to kill all of those intruders.
They dared to enter the Lin Family and mess things up.
"There are soldiers from Fei Yang Kingdom nearby. They're attacking the nearby village."
"Where's General Tou?"
"General Tou had fallen."
Fourth Old Master Lin took a deep breath. "Request assistance from the Capital City. Do it as fast as possible. Meanwhile, everyone had to stay inside the mountain and not allowed to go out."
"Yes!"
Now that Fei Yang Kingdom soldiers were here, it was truly impossible for him to continue doing what they used to do.
He had to put it down and find out a way to get out of this predicament.
Hopefully, Master Lin Sun would succeed.
...
<Forest, Nan Si and Fei Mao's location>
Swish!
Nan Si's task was for him to lure the people from Lin Family away from Nan Hua's direction and not to kill them all. Thus, after creating some mess with them, Nan Si proceeded to turn around and ran.
He had no intention to stay behind and continue fighting with those from Lin Family.
"Fei Mao," Nan Si called.
"Ah?" Fei Mao turned around and saw a man shrouded in the shadow of the tree. His lips twitched. He could never understand why this Nan Si liked to stay under the shadow of many things and never liked to stay under the sun.
Even when it was daytime, he would be like this.
"Where's Miss?"
"She had not returned." Fei Mao looked at the vast forest in front of him. "There are soldiers from Fei Yang Kingdom coming and disrupted. I have already asked the others from Dark Moon Organization to retreat."
Nan Si arched his eyebrows and nodded.
He had also noticed them, which was the reason why he could get away easier. Turning his head, he stared deeply into the area back when he heard Nan Hua called him.
She should be heading in different direction.
Even if he were to enter the forest again and searched for Nan Hua, Nan Si highly doubted that it would be possible for him to find Nan Hua. As long as Nan Hua didn't want anyone to find her, it was almost impossible for someone to find her.
Her ability to erase her presence was top notch.
It was to the point that others would never be able to detect her presence without her permission.
"I'll try to enter the forest again. You clean up the area from Lin Family members."
"Yes."
Fei Mao then stunned as he watched Nan Si ran into the distance. Scratching the back of his head, he silently wondered why did he started to follow Nan Si's order.
Oh well. It didn't matter that much.
Shaking his head, Fei Mao then slipped into the village nearby. He still had some things to do.
...
<Forest, Long Qian Xing and Nan Hua's location>
Clang! Clang! Clang!
The sound of battle was getting further and further away.
Long Qian Xing had been in this area for a few days. After chasing General Tou for several days, he had also mapped the area and asked his men to scout it several times. After all, General Tou kept on slipping away because he knew the terrains better than them.
After making sure that he figured out most of the things, he trapped General Tou with Yu Jin's help.
That was what ended the battle not long ago.
But there were still some other commanders and soldiers from Zhang Xu Kingdoms who were roaming in this area. While they were naturally not a match against them, they still had to be careful of ambush and so on.
In the process of scouting back then, Long Qian Xing had managed to find a separate hut that was abandoned.
After inspection, it was figured out that this hut belonged to a hunter. He used to stay in this hut when he was staying on the mountain but he also had a house in the village. Last year, he moved away, so the hut was abandoned.
Long Qian Xing headed to the hut and stopped the horse in front of the house.
*neigh*
"Shush." Long Qian Xing patted the horse with one hand before carrying Nan Hua and jumped down carefully. His movement was very careful to make sure that he would not wake up the beauty in his arm.
Seeing the sweat on Nan Hua's forehead, Long Qian Xing frowned slightly.
He entered the hut and looked at the bed nearby. Thankfully, the hut was relatively clean after he checked it last time he came here because he felt that he could make use of this place.
Long Qian Xing carefully put Nan Hua on the bed and checked her temperature with his hand.
It was not accurate, but he knew that her temperature was rising.
"Damn it."
Turning around, Long Qian Xing went back to his horse, taking cloth and some water for compress. While he knew first aid, he didn't know how to identify poisons. He had to make do with this for the time being.
