“Avalanche?!”

Even Feng Ao Si was stunned when he heard that his younger cousin was actually buried under the rocks like that. He pestered Nan Luo for the details, but Nan Luo definitely couldn’t tell him that it was actually a scheme that they had planted.

It all became an ‘accident’ that the people from Zhang Xu Kingdom gathered there. They were buried alive under the avalanche.

There were two methods to win in a battle.

The first one was to kill the commander and made the soldiers leaderless. This method often worked, but it was also difficult to target the commanders. To be able to become the commander had already showed that the person had some talent on his own.

How could he possibly die so easily?

That was hard.

And it was also because of this that it was not that easy to win in the war.

The second method was to eliminate most of the soldiers and directly cut them off of their fighting powers. That way, they wouldn’t be able to fight back as they didn’t have anyone who were on their sides.

.....

This accident had killed the majority of soldiers from Zhang Xu Kingdom.

Thus, it had caused Fei Yang Kingdom’s side to indirectly won in the battle in that Thunder Valley.

It was just a small battle, though.

One that would be easily forgotten with the passage of time. Only those who were personally involved would definitely remember the terrifying scenes of the avalanche as it occurred right on top of their enemies’ head.

Countless people had died in that ‘accident.’

“That’s really scary.” Feng Ao Si shuddered. Even though he always boasted his strength and his ability, he knew very well that he was nothing more than a small figure in eyes of nature.

Fighting against an avalanche?

If he didn’t want to turn into a mummified person, he should never ever try to attempt it in the slightest bit.

“How did you survive?”

“I was a bit at the outer age, so many of us are not injured. However, there are some soldiers who are still within the valley’s perimeter.” Nan Luo’s tone was depressed when he recalled this matter.

He should have never agreed for Nan Hua to be staying at the back and chased after him in such a long distance. There was no doubt that Nan Hua would definitely be lagging behind him at that time.

How could he bear watching her staying at the back like that?

Unfortunately, it had happened.

Feng Ao Si sighed then thought about another matter. “Where’s Ao Kuai? I heard that he’s staying with you at Thunder Valley since the two of you are both under General Cao.”

“He’s reporting to General Cao about our conditions.” Nan Luo glanced at Feng Ao Si. “You’ve been getting it easy here.”

There were other young commanders nearby, but they had good relationship with Feng Ao Si. In fact, Nan Luo began to wonder why Young Commander Sheng was willing to stay close with Feng Ao Si.

He had heard that the two of them even worked together recently.

This made him wonder what kind of benefit did Feng Ao Si gave to that young man that made him so willing to collaborate with the other party. Given Feng Ao Si’s stupidity, there were not many people who were willing to cooperate with him because they were worried that he would drag them down.

That was one of the main reason why Feng Ao Kuai refused vehemently when his father asked him to be his older brother’s strategist.

He would never agree.

Not in this life.

And not in the next life either.

“Young Commander Sheng is easy to talk with.” Feng Ao Si grinned. “We’re working together at this front for some time. He’s also much better than me and seems to have been able to get a promotion not long ago.”

Promotion?

“The last time I see him, Young Commander Sheng is a 3000 men commander, right? He gets promoted again?” Nan Luo asked with disbelief in his tone.

It was not like he doubted Young Commander Sheng’s capability, but one had to remember that he came from ordinary background. Not to mention, Young Commander Sheng was only 19 or 20 years old this year.

If he was promoted again, it meant that he had reached 4000 men commander.

Compared to many others who were older or of similar age, he was far ahead of them.

Naturally, one shouldn’t compare him to the outstanding members of Long Family and Shangguan Family. It would be a bit hard to compare them as these young masters had better resources than him.

“General Wei agreed to have him promoted but with a condition after he finished that case.” Feng Ao Si glanced at Nan Luo and grinned. “He had to kill a general within a year or his promotion would be revoked.”

1 year.

Nan Luo thought about their battle against Zhang Xu Kingdom and nodded in understanding. He felt that General Wei was simply giving Young Commander Sheng a chance to prove that he was as capable as other young masters who came from military family.

Because of his ordinary family background, he had to work much harder than them in the beginning and found it hard to advance.

Without connection, resources, and many others, the path he took was naturally harder compared to the young masters.

That was why he was given a chance.

A chance to prove himself.

If he was truly capable, it meant that he deserved the position. But if he was not capable enough, it meant that he would need to wait a bit longer before he could reach that rank.

“When did he get promoted?”

“Last year.”

“…Did he fulfill the condition?”

“Yep, just a few months ago.” Feng Ao Si sighed. “The gap between him and me seems to be getting further and further away.”

Nan Luo thought of something and then grinned. “Brother Ao Si, I’m only one rank lower than you now. As you can see, I’m slowly catching up to you~.”
