Flowers Bloom from Battlefield

Yuan Kingdom

Ming Hui stayed on top of the border wall as he watched one horse with a rider on top of it come towards them. Even without the need to look clearly, he already knew about the other party. Still, he didn’t think that she would come with a boy clothes.

”Ming Hui,” Jun Hua smiled at him when she arrived at the border, ”Did you receive my message?”

”I do,” if he didn’t receive it, he would just stay in the capital and didn’t bother coming to this place. ”You look like Jun Min again.”

Jun Hua wore a boy clothes and even her hair was tied up like a boy. If not because her face stayed more or less the same, he would not recognize the other party. She did wear a face mask to tone the beautiful feature a bit, but they were almost useless on her.

She smiled, ”I have returned to how I used to look. Oh well, do you have a long rope and powerful arrow?”

”I have prepared them near the river,” Ming Hui nodded his head, ”Are you going to do something outrageous again?”

”Not really,” Jun Hua answered after pondering for a bit. She was indeed planning to do something with those items, but it was not really something big in her opinion.

Seeing Jun Hua hesitated for a moment, Ming Hui was 100 percent sure the other party planned for something big again. She was truly a peculiar lady and he hoped that Soujin won’t get surprised at her sudden appearance.

”Let’s go to the river. Or you want to rest first?” the distance from Ming City to here was not short. There was no way she could have a lot of rest since she arrived much faster compared with Soujin’s party.

Jun Hua shook her head, ”I don’t need to rest. I can rest after I arrive in the Gu Yue Kingdom.”

”I understand,” Ming Hui answered. ”Follow me to the shortest distance of the river.”

With that Ming Hui rode the horse with Jun Hua followed after him. Ming Hui didn’t pace the horse too face in hope Jun Hua won’t be left behind since the other party has very few rests for the past few days.

”How’s the condition of this city after you take care of the rebel?” Jun Hua asked.

”I have repaired some of the broken things and everything,” Ming Hui answered, ”it’s just the price we need to pay is rather big.”

The number of broken things was not small. There was simply no way his heart won’t bleed at that amount of money. Even if he was not like Yan who loved money so much, he can’t accept losing so much money just because of those rebels.

”They are paid to create the chaos. You can take their money to repair things.”

”I already did that, but the amount far exceeded that amount,” Ming Hui put a wry smile. He was not that stupid to not use the money, but the damages were simply too big for them.

”I will think for a way.”

”There’s no need. I will send a petition to my brother to have him expand his business quicker, so I could quickly do the repair,” Ming Hui smiled cunningly.

Jun Hua shook her head. That emperor would surely encounter another trouble with his brother actually scheming against him. While the two of them were talking, they finally arrived near the river. Fan Ying was already there and he bowed politely towards Jun Hua.

”What’s your current rank?” Jun Hua asked curiously. She was not the one who assigned their advancement and she will only know when someone was promoted as a general.

”I’m a 5000 men commander,” Fan Ying answered.

”There’s still one more rank, but you have already got into an important checkpoint,” Jun Hua nodded her head in satisfaction. Her eyes landed on the bow and rope on the side.

Ming Hui followed at her gaze, ”Those are what you ask us to find. What do you want to use with them?”

Jun Hua grinned as she tied the rope to the end of the arrow as tight as possible. She placed the arrow on the bow and aimed towards the other side of the river. Seeing that scene, both Fan Ying and Ming Hui gaped. This girl didn’t serious, right?

She released the bow and the arrow went straight to the other side of the river, bringing the rope alongside with it. The arrow then struck the tree on the other side and the other side of the rope was within Jun Hua’s hand.

Jun Hua turned around and tied the rope on the tree behind her.

”You didn’t think about crossing the river using the rope, right?” no matter how confident you’re with your archery, what if the rope suddenly snapped when you were still in the middle? That would be the same as throwing her life away.

Jun Hua’s eyes narrowed to see the other side of the river, ”If something happens to me, please tell Soujin and my son that I’m sorry.”

”…what?” can’t you at least say that you will safely return no matter what happens? If you were to cross the river and failed, the crime of putting her into danger would fall into them and Ming Hui didn’t want to imagine what Soujin would do to them.

Jun Hua hopped on top of the rope and started to run towards the other side of the river. Even if this was her first time running on top of something so narrow, she quickly picked up the pace and dashed towards the other side of the river.

”She truly can’t tone down, right?” Fan Ying heard that she has just gave birth to a boy, but seeing this scene, he truly wondered whether the news was right or not. She was simply no different with any other active boy *cough* girl.

Ming Hui shook his head. If she could tone down, there was no way she would get wounded at many occasions in the past. He still didn’t understand why the other party dared to try such a stunt just to see Soujin. Was there something he missed?

He kept on looking towards the other side of the river. His eyes widened when he noticed that there was someone already waiting on the other side of the river.

”Jun Hua, there’s…” he wanted to warn the little girl to turn back, but she had reached more than 2/3 part of the river. How in the world did she run that fast?

Jun Hua eyes narrowed at the sight of the person in front of her. He was bringing a sword, ready to cut the rope. She could only activate the zone and forcefully moved her feet much faster than what she could usually do.

She could feel her feet hurt from the fast movement she forced upon her feet. But she simply didn’t have the time to care. If that person were to arrive at the rope faster than her, she could only struggle to stay safe in the massive water current.

As her vision turned hazier because of her speed, she picked up her bow and arrow before aimed towards that person. With a swift movement, she had fired the arrow towards him and killed the other party successfully.

DZING!

When that person fell, Jun Hua can feel the rope shook.

”I forgot to predict the direction of his fall.”

With the rope turned unstable and the possibility of it falling anytime soon, Jun Hua sped up her movement even more. She strained her feet to the limit to fasten her movement. When the arrow finally snapped from its place in the tree, Jun Hua rolled towards the ground and stopped her movement with her feet kicked the tree in front of her.

”That was dangerous.”

Jun Hua stayed still for a moment to feel her feet back. That movement has caused her feet to hurt. She looked at the side. The arrow has already left the place because of her movement on top of the rope.

”If only I could fire the arrow as hard as Soujin, it won’t be this dangerous,” Jun Hua muttered and quickly straightened herself. One way or another, she needed to find Soujin after getting out from this massive forest.

On the other side of the river, Ming Hui heaved a sigh of relief. He was glad the other party was fine since the last few seconds was terribly straining his mental state. Thankfully, she was fine, or he would have a heart attack.

”At least she arrived on the other side safely. Let’s return back.”

”I understand.”
