Forgotten Legend of the Bloodied Flower

"General Kai! What are you doing?"

The soldiers nearby were stunned when they saw General Kai's move. Did he… Did he just…?

General Kai ignored the probing eyes from these soldiers and sheathed his sword again. He looked at the dead Prince Wei Da Lang in front of him and took a deep breath.

"There was never any hope for Wei Da Kingdom to revive again, Your Highness. Pardon me for making this decision against your will."

Taking the prince's head from the ground, General Kai then asked them to blow the horn, signaling the end of the battle. Even though he knew that they could continue to fight here, but how long should they continue to fight?

The fighting space was limited and they had been at the losing end.

These soldiers from Fei Yang Kingdom was pressing on them without them even realizing what had happened.

"General Kai!"

The soldiers looked at the general with disbelief. For many people, the imperial family members were people they could not touch in their entire life. To be able to be trusted by the prince was an honor that they couldn't imagine.

But at this time, General Kai had no hesitation to kill Prince Wei Da Lang.

This made the soldiers felt conflicted.

Some of them had been following General Kai and naturally knew what the general was thinking. They had already seen them being on the losing end in this battle. Who would want to fight a battle they knew they would lose?

They were also tired.

But some others were unwilling. They had fought for their entire life for Wei Da Kingdom. Now that General Kai did this, wasn't this mean that he was placing them at the forefront and told others that they had given up.

The kingdom they previously had is now no more.

This was a fact that had been thrown to them from the moment Wei Da Kingdom's Capital City fell.

But who wanted to admit it?

That the kingdom they had followed so far is lost and there was no hope to recover.

Prince Wei Da Lang's escape and his determination to fight back had ignited the fighting spirit of these soldiers. Even if their rationality was telling them that this was an impossible mission, they were still willing to grab onto that ray of hope.

Now, General Kai personally shattered their illusion.

"General Kai, you why…" some of the soldiers who couldn't accept it stepped forward.

General Kai knew that even if he had agreed with several commanders, there were still many soldiers who didn't know what he would do today. Having worked hard to become a general in Wei Da Kingdom, it would be a lie to say that he didn't feel painful.

But more than anything, he cared for his life.

He could rebuild his future but if he died here, everything will end.

"Stop them," General Kai spat out.

Some soldiers under General Kai stepped forward and stopped these soldiers who wanted to stop General Kai. Their expression was filled with determination and fight nearly broke out.

Shouts and scream resounded.

The situation was in chaos but the soldiers at the front didn't seem to care. Many of them had already known what they had to expect.

Their eyes were red with anger and grieve.

But even if they knew what they had done was betrayal, many still chose this decision. They cared for their family and their future, but many of them were also afraid for their lives.

Under the coercion that existed, they had no other choice but to pick this choice.

Clang! Clang!

The shouts were extremely clear that the fierce battles outside were also slowly ceasing.

Thud!

General Kai walked out with the head. This made the already chaotic battlefield to be even worse. He walked calmly while some soldiers were shouting and looked at Long Qian Xing. "Young Commander Long, I've lost."

Long Qian Xing looked at General Kai and nodded.

And then, the loud cheers from Fei Yang Kingdom soldiers filled the area. Without any other descendant from Wei Da Kingdom, no one will be able to revive the kingdom anymore.

The soldiers from Wei Da Kingdom who were left fell to the ground, some crying, some in despair, and some others just stay silent.

They all knew that this was nothing more than futile resistance.

Now…

The battle is over.

…

"Fiuh…" Nan Luo lowered his sword and looked at Nan Hua. "Do we have to kill every Imperial Family members if we want to conquer another kingdom?"

"No." Nan Hua glanced at Nan Luo. "You can also take them as prisoners."

Nan Luo was stunned, but then he thought that it was also possible that way. After all, by having a member of the previous Imperial Family as a prisoner, they could also push the people to follow them.

Tsk, he didn't think that things would actually be so simple, but that was the basic gist.

"And from Wei Da Kingdom?"

"There's already Prince Wei Da Fan that can be used. Prince Wei Da Lang is not needed anymore." Nan Hua lowered her sword and looked at the cheering soldiers below. She knew that they were happy, but the Imperial Family of Wei Da Kingdom was not actually completely eliminated.

Her senior brother was from Wei Da Kingdom.

And Prince Wei Da Fan might be able to stay alive and well for a long time as long as he didn't violate any of the laws of Fei Yang Kingdom.

"I see." Nan Luo looked at General Kai on the front with a complicated expression. "I never expected that this will be the end when we come here."

"This is his decision." Nan Hua looked at General Kai. "And some people valued their lives more than their glory and power."

Nan Luo looked thoughtfully at General Kai in the distance. He felt that he was given another insight on another person's inner thoughts and how much selfishness that human could have.

Even at such high position, it was inevitable for one to care about their lives.
