Forgotten Legend of the Bloodied Flower

Chapter 1468 I’m A Normal Human Being

Gong!

When the sound of the gong sounded, it was unknown whether the two sides felt relief or displeasure.

The battle was really chaotic.

The fall of two generals, each from the two sides, had caused the situation to be relatively bad. Added with the betrayal of General Cao from Fei Yang Kingdom, it had invoked great hatred from Fei Yang Kingdom's soldiers.

Drap! Drap! Drap!

Long Qian Xing returned to the camp with his soldiers. Many of his soldiers were injured because of the battle not long ago. At that time, he didn't care about anything and only wanted to kill General Cao along with all of his soldiers because of their betrayal to Fei Yang Kingdom.

"Are all soldiers from General Cao reverted to Zhang Xu Kingdom?" Long Qian Xing asked.

As a general, General Cao had thousands of soldiers under him. For such a person to suddenly betray Fei Yang Kingdom, their losses were not small.

"Replying to General Xing, there are around 3000 soldiers left from General Cao's camp. We've isolated them separately," a commander replied through gritted teeth. From his action, it was clear that he himself also felt immense hatred by General Cao's sudden betrayal.

General Cao's betrayal was painfully loud and clear. It was as if slapping Fei Yang Kingdom's face for raising such an ungrateful b*stard for a long time without realizing that he was actually sabotaging them.

How could they not be angry?

They were all infuriated.

"Keep them away. Send them to the nearby city where they could be monitored. They will be interrogated separately later." Long Qian Xing waved his hand.

"Yes, General Xing!"

It was impossible for General Cao to make everyone in his army to follow him. There will definitely some who chose to side with Fei Yang Kingdom and what Long Qian Xing wanted was to filter these people.

But this couldn't be done immediately.

They had to go through some process to make sure that there were no longer any rats lurking among those people.

Long Qian Xing rode his horse back to the stalls and jumped down, letting the soldier in charge of taking care of the horse to take the horse to the side. After that, he walked in the direction of his tent where his fourth adjutant had rushed over to help serve Long Qian Xing.

Right now, Long Qian Xing had four adjutants in total who helped him to arrange the soldiers. After all, it was not easy for him to take care of the large number of soldiers without the help of his adjutants.

"General Xing, Princess Jun is here."

Long Qian Xing straightened his body and nodded. "Let her in."

Nan Hua was busy at the frontline, so she came back later than Long Qian Xing. Not to mention, many of the soldiers from the mountain tribe were injured due to the battle not long ago.

They had to tend to their wound.

"General Xing," Nan Hua greeted after she stepped inside. Her white robe was dyed red with blood in some areas. It looked rather unsightly, yet Long Qian Xing didn't mind at all. Because this meant that Nan Hua came directly after her battle was over.

Long Qian Xing waved his hand, dismissing his soldiers and looked at Nan Hua with a bitter smile. "Do I look strange?"

Nan Hua shook her head.

"You said that I'm a very rational person." Long Qian Xing still could remember that when he finally found Nan Hua again in that temple, she said that he was a very rational person. And Long Qian Xing himself also knew that.

He was a person who knew what he wanted and worked hard in order to be able to achieve it. Trying his best to make sure that he could survive and blend in this world where the laws were restricting him, he wanted to be free.

Thus, he would always do things that would benefit him the most.

Even if the process seemed to be rather annoying and made himself uncomfortable for a period of time, what he cared for was the result.

"But at the end of the day, I'm still a normal human being. I have emotions and needs just like how an ordinary man would." Long Qian Xing took a deep breath.

He could feel comfort, anger, sadness, joy, happiness, and many other emotions.

And it was precisely because of these emotions that he couldn't always pick the best decision. There were some of his decision that was based on what he wanted rather than what he thought would be the best.

"I know." Nan Hua looked at Long Qian Xing quietly.

She knew he's a normal human being with emotions.

Even if he showed an indifferent look on the surface and always acted in accordance to what was appropriate, it could never erase the fact that deep inside, he was still a normal human being.

Just like how she always kept an indifferent expression, but she herself was also a normal human being who had emotion.

It was just that they were used to keep their emotions in check so that it would not interfere with their decision making. Their emotions existed, but they were not prominent to affect their choices.

But not all the time.

There were times when they do things just because they wanted to.

Because they are humans.

Humans make mistakes.

They are not perfect.

Nan Hua looked at Long Qian Xing and stepped forward, her hands reached out to his side and hugged him. She didn't know how to comfort Long Qian Xing and from what she knew, hugs could make people feel better.

At least, that was how her grandfather said to her when he hugged her and her twin brother.

Though, her twin brother often ran away.

Long Qian Xing's body stiffened for a moment before placing his arms around Nan Hua. He lowered his head and buried it before Nan Hua's neck, sensing her sweet smell that was laden with the smell of blood.

It was strange.

But he felt calmer with her around.
