Forgotten Legend of the Bloodied Flower

Chapter 1067: Jun Family (2)

This name was not that unfamiliar to Nan Luo since he had just read the information about the living members of Jun Family. If he could say, this name was the one he had expected to step forward when he saw the list.     

The First Jun Family consisted of Old Master Jun, his first son, his two grandsons, and one granddaughter. Among the grandchildren, who were around the same age as Nan Luo and the others, there was only one main son while the other two were concubine children.     

Jun Shi Lian was the second son and also the concubine born son.     

The main wife of his father would naturally dislike this concubine born child whom she saw as an obstacle for her son. There was no way she would let this nobody took the inheritance that was supposed to be for the first son.     

That was why, this conscription was Heaven sent blessing in their opinion.     

She could send away their second son whom she saw as an eyesore.     

There was no way she would want to send her beloved son to the war where everyone might die at every moment. This was the best option in her opinion.     

"Come and accept the order," Nan Luo gave his order.     

Jun Shi Lian's body trembled a bit but he gritted his teeth and walked forward. He took the bamboo scroll and his eyes flashed with ruthlessness. His body shook a bit as he turned around, intending to return to the army.     

Nan Luo was looking at Jun Shi Lian and his eyes narrowed. "Stay here for a bit. I would like to talk to you when this is over."     

"Huh?" Jun Shi Lian was stunned. He looked at Nan Luo, who was only two years older than him but almost a head taller, and nodded. Being mistreated ever since he was young, his body didn't grow as it was supposed to be.     

He didn't know who this commander was.     

And not listening to a commander might even earn their family a punishment, so Jun Shi Lian decided to just listen to whatever Nan Luo wanted.     

The official clicked his tongue secretly.     

He felt that this commander was really interested in the Jun Family for some reason. And considering that this young commander had quite the background, he didn't know whether it was good or not for the Jun Family to attract his attention.     

"Second Jun Family."     

"Jun Fang will represent the Second Jun Family," A youth answered, almost screaming in the process.     

His words were spoken very quickly as if he was afraid that someone will take this chance away from him.     

"Jun Fang!" His father looked at his son and wanted to reprimand him.     

"My father is already old, so I'll go on behalf of him!" the youth, Jun Fang, insisted. He looked at his father with pleading expression because he really didn't want his old father to go to the battlefield.     

Old?     

Nan Luo was baffled. From what he knew, Jun Fang's father was still in his late thirties, right? It was strange to say that this age was already old.     

He turned to look at the pair and realized that Jun Fang's father was wearing bandage on his arm. It was unclear when his father had wounded his arm, but that kind of wound would definitely make it impossible for him to go to the battlefield.     

Just the healing alone would take a long time.     

And afterwards, he wouldn't be able to participate in the training to fully prepare him for the war.         

No wonder that Jun Fang wanted to represent his father to go to the battlefield.     

"Come forward to take the order." The official sighed.     

This was not the first time he heard about this kind of thing. Sometimes, some people would really quarrel on the street to decide who would be going to the battlefield. He was not unfamiliar with this.     

It was just he had to finish his job.     

"Yes!"     

Jun Fang stepped forward and received the order. He looked at the bamboo scroll in his hand and felt a bit heavy.     

Even though he had heard the matter of the war from time to time, he knew very well that it wouldn't be easy for him to survive in that harsh battlefield. No matter what, he wanted to make sure that he could stay alive and return safely so that his father would not need to be so worried about him.     

He was about to return when Nan Luo called out.     

"Stay here for a bit. I would like to talk to you when this is over."     

"Eh?" Jun Fang was stunned.     

Beside Nan Luo, Jun Shi Lian narrowed his eyes and looked at this young commander beside him. While he couldn't say anything for sure, he knew very well that this young man was interested in their Jun Family.     

Why?     

Did the Jun Family somehow offend this young commander?     

Countless thoughts swirled within Jun Shi Lian's head, but he really couldn't think of anything that could be said to be suitable for this young commander to be interested in them.     

Not to mention, Jun Family had declined over the years.     

There was no way that there could be someone so powerful who would want anything from them.     

Jun Fang had a confused expression, but he also stayed silent and stood beside Jun Shi Lian while waiting for the officials to finish distributing everything.     

The Jun Family was watching from the side, a bit confused about this matter.     

"Who's that young commander?"     

"I don't know."     

"But from the way it looks like, this young commander should be someone from big family. It's hard for a commoner to become a powerful commander at his young age."     

The Head of the First Jun Family looked at Nan Luo and then shook his head. He really couldn't recognize who this youth was. The Jun Family shouldn't have offended any big family lately, right?     

Jun Fang's father was also a bit worried, but his wife tugged his hand and shook her head. She knew that the words of this young commander couldn't be easily refuted by ordinary citizen.     

Unless they wanted to die.     

All they could do was wait.
