Forgotten Legend of the Bloodied Flower

Chapter 573 Third Day – East Area (2)

　　It was very likely that Commander Lin Lu might not be his opponent.

　　Clang! Clang! Clang!

　　Fighting with ease, Long Qian Xing deflected all of the female adjutant attack. His movement made one wonder whether the axe actually weighted nothing when it clashed against his sword. Yet the crisp sound told them otherwise.

　　The female adjutant was sweating profusely. With Lin Lu increasing the amount of poison, she was also getting affected.

　　Yet, the young man in front of her didn't seem to be tired in the slightest bit.

　　Clang! Clang! Clang!

　　"You…"

　　"Playtime is over." Long Qian Xing was adjusting to their movements. Upon seeing the incoming soldiers, he knew that he had to finish the battle faster. His legs sidestepped to the front, decreasing their distance in one swift movement. At the same time, he swung his sword.

　　Before the female adjutant could block it properly, it had passed through her aim and landed on her shoulder then went down all the way to her stomach.

　　Slash!

　　Blood splattered as the female adjutant died with grievances.

　　She was simply not Long Qian Xing's opponent.

　　No matter how indignant she was, she could only look at Long Qian Xing as her life and strength vanished.

　　Long Qian Xing killed the female adjutant then glanced at several soldiers who were rushing at him. Their expression was pale but their eyes were burning maniacally. It was clear that they were trained to be immune to the poison to some extent and forced to protect Lin Lu no matter what happened.

　　But they were not his match.

　　Swish! Slash! Slash!

　　It didn't take long for Long Qian Xing to clean them all up. Thus, within the faint smoke mist, only two people were left.

　　"No…" Commander Lin Lu was trembling as she took out all of the bottles within her sleeves and flung them to the ground one by one. Countless different types of poison mixed with her in the center of everything.

　　Her skin turned slightly purple, but her eyes still showed that she retained her rationality and not poisoned badly.

　　She didn't have such strong immunity towards poison and already began to feel pain, yet the person standing in front of her was able to contend against her without even changing his expression.

　　Just what is he?

　　"You have quite a good poison resistance." Long Qian Xing looked at Lin Lu. He thought for a moment. "It seems that I should pay a visit to the Lin Family in the future. The way they did things are very similar to my sister."

　　"Sister?" Lin Lu's eyes widened. "Who are you?"

　　"Does it matter?" Long Qian Xing asked and swiftly brandished his sword, killing Lin Lu in one swift motion. The poison commander didn't even understand why her poison didn't work as she fell to eternal sleep.

　　Standing within the poison mist, Long Qian Xing tugged the woman's sleeve and some intact bottles rolled out. He looked at them and silently kept them away. If there was a chance in the future, he would ask his little fiancée to help him identify them. Who knows whether they would be useful for him or not.

　　But of course, he had to be careful to make sure that he wouldn't be affected.

　　He had to keep these away from his subordinates as he didn't want to cause an accident to happen in the army.

　　After it was done, Long Qian Xing walked out of the poison mist, looking all around him. His men were already cleaning up the other soldiers around the area that was outside the mist. They didn't have the same poison resistance as him, so they were tasked to clean up the other areas.

　　"How's Shangguan Xian's soldiers?" Long Qian Xing asked.

　　He didn't bring all of his soldier with him because it was not easy to cross the river. More than half of the soldiers were actually Shangguan Xian's soldiers. They were temporarily under his command for this battle.

　　After all, crossing the river in the middle of the night without alarming the people from the opposite side was hard. If he had to bring thousands of soldiers under him along, it would definitely take a long time.

　　Because of that, they came into concession that half of the soldiers here were still Shangguan Xian's soldiers and half of the soldiers under Shangguan Xian was actually Long Qian Xing's.

　　They simply had a different main commander.

　　Though, the one who gave order was still the adjutant who stayed behind in order to help taking care of them.

　　"They're listening well, Young Commander."

　　"That's good." Long Qian Xing stretched his hand. He looked at the front as the corner of his lips curled up to form a smirk. "Since the poison commander had failed, I wonder what that cunning prime minister had in store."

　　The other commanders chose not to comment when they heard Long Qian Xing's words. It looked as if Long Qian Xing was not worried at all that Prime Minister Lei would target him because of his capabilities. He instead wanted to challenge the other party for a battle even though he had just finished a battle.

　　Truly…

　　His mentality was not something they could compare to.

　　"Let's go!"

　　"Yes!"

　　…

　　Zhang Xu Kingdom's side.

　　At this moment, a soldier was rushing towards Prime Minister Lei in order to give the report from the other side of the battle. After all, Prime Minister Lei had to keep up with the most updated information of the battle in the four areas in order to be able to make sure that he would win the battle.

　　"Commander Lin had died in Long Qian Xing's hand."

　　"Long Qian Xing?" Prime Minister Lei's eyes flashed with ruthlessness when he heard the name. He had long feel irked whenever he heard this surname. Now, another one had come to foil his plan again?
