Swish! Drap! Drap!
"Nan!"
Nan Hua looked at the soldiers around Nan Luo. "Retreat. The gong will sound soon, but General Jue will likely not let us off easily."
Not let us off easily?
Nan Luo had a bad premonition when he heard Nan Hua's words. While he paid more attention to Nan Hua's battle, he couldn't watch Nan Hua's fight all the time because there were also things that he had to do.
He asked slowly, "…What did you do?"
"Throwing several poisonous knives to him."
Hearing that answer, Nan Luo was speechless.
He naturally knew about Zhang Xu Kingdom's pride and superiority when it came to poison. They would definitely be very pissed off if they were to be poisoned by their opponent.
Nan Hua was basically hitting his bottom line with the last attack she used.
Many people from Zhang Xu Kingdom were furious when they were attacked with the method that should have been theirs.
Even though there was no restriction about other kingdoms using poison…
But using poison against Zhang Xu Kingdom?
The people from Zhang Xu Kingdom would shout at them that they would teach them how to use these poisons properly!
"You're very brave," Nan Luo praised.
Nan Hua passed a look at Nan Luo and then shook her head. It was not a matter of being brave or not.
It was more like she purposely provoked them in this battle.
"Retreat in the orderly manner!"
"Yes, Young Commander Nan!"
The soldiers began to move quickly. Their number was at disadvantage and a third of their members were injured. Some of them also died when they were waiting for the reinforcement.
It was a bitter battle with them at disadvantage, but in the end, they were still alive.
They could only hope that Long Qian Xing succeeded in the battle because if he failed, then this loss would become even more bitter.
"You did great." Nan Hua looked at the soldiers and then at Nan Luo seriously. In the situation where she couldn't help him to arrange the soldiers and Xiao Yan was also busy fighting and arranging the soldiers on the other side, Nan Luo did very well.
He clearly showed his potential of not only fighting at the frontline but also someone who knew how to lead his soldiers properly.
Nan Luo smiled brightly when he heard his twin sister's praise. "I still have a lot to learn."
Seeing Nan Luo's smile, Nan Hua chose not to say that it was true and let him be happy. Anyway, it shouldn't have been easy for him to improve so much and reached this stage.
He also deserved to be praised.

Moving across the forest, they quickly retreated to their own headquarters.
…
<Long Qian Xing's side>
Meanwhile, Long Qian Xing had finished with the battle in the headquarter. The result was satisfying and these people wouldn't be able to stay calm with their headquarters being ransacked like that.
Many soldiers who were left behind were killed and failed to defend their headquarters. Even if there were still many of them, they were not a match against Long Qian Xing and his soldiers.
Unfortunately, Long Qian Xing had to leave after some time.
He didn't bring that many soldiers and as the reinforcement arrived, it would be difficult for him to continue staying there. If he didn't leave, he would be the one to suffer from being overwhelmed in terms of number. No matter how arrogant he was, he would not act recklessly because he understood that his every action would affect a lot of people's lives.
He only caused considerable damages to the supplies, soldiers, and the few temporary tents there.
It was enough.
Afterwards, Long Qian Xing ran back to the forest with his soldiers.
When the reinforcement arrived, what greeted them was their devastated headquarters.
Thus, everyone was busy cursing Long Qian Xing while trying their best to rescue whoever were still alive. The hatred between Zhang Xu Kingdom and Fei Yang Kingdom continued to deepen as there were more and more casualties in the battle.
Some of them wanted to chase after Long Qian Xing and his soldiers.
Unfortunately, Long Qian Xing had departed far away and couldn't be chased again easily.
"General Xing, we're close to the location of General Jue!"
Long Qian Xing looked at the raised flag in the distance and his eyes narrowed. The raised flag was the flag with the text of Nan and Luo. He could guess immediately that it must have belonged to Nan Luo.
At this moment, there was uneasiness within his heart, but he forced it down. No matter what, he was still on the battlefield and also the leader of these soldiers, so he had to keep his calm.
"Go there."
"Yes!"
Drap! Drap! Drap!
Running in the forest, Long Qian Xing moved as fast as possible. However, he knew that no matter how fast he is, there was no way he could possibly reach Nan Hua's location so quickly. The distance between the two of them were so far.
From the direction, he guessed that General Jue was planning the same thing as him to ambush their headquarters.
However, he bumped with Nan Luo's army that was roaming at the areas not far from the headquarter.
He really didn't know who had the bad luck.
Long Qian Xing's heart was uneasy. He trusted Nan Hua but at the same time, he was worried for her wellbeing. For the first time in his life, he felt so conflicted that he didn't know what words could be used to describe his current emotions.
"General Xing, we're close now."
"I can see it."
Long Qian Xing saw that Nan Luo's flag was already put down. It should be either they were retreating or they had lost. He was naturally more inclined towards the second one and hoped for it to be the truth.
As they rushed through the forest, he could faintly hear yelling and curse from one direction.
"Charge there!"
"Yes!"
Drap! Drap! Drap!
