Forgotten Legend of the Bloodied Flower

Chapter 1898  The Other Side

General Lei rubbed his chin.

He felt that Shi Long Kingdom was also quite unreliable in scases, but he didn't dare to say anything more. After all, at this time, he was still on the side of Shi Long Kingdom and had to fight for them.

Breaking out without any preparation whatsoever is stupid. He sighed and slowly participated to make the plan for tomorrow.

…

<Long distance away, Border between Fei Yang Kingdom and Shi Long Kingdom, the east border of Fei Yang Kingdom and northwest border of Shi Long Kingdom.>

The loss of Shangguan Xian in the battle against Heavenly General Bao didn't mean that the entire army would completely retreat. They returned to the border and stayed there, waiting for the news from the Capital City. Shangguan Xian knew that it would be hard for him to keep the position in this place. Besides, he didn't want it either.

"Xiao, I'm appointing you to be the next general," Shangguan Xian suddenly speak. Shangguan Xiao, who had just finished the arrangement, looked at his older brother in surprise. "Are you sure about this?"

"I'm planning to retire and my own adjutant is the one who sold the news. Who do you think I should trust more?" Shangguan Xian asked slowly.

There was still one adjutant who was loyal to him, but Shangguan Xian was reminded of the tragedy of General Mu's adjutant. The very person whom he entrusted ended up betraying Fei Yang Kingdom and dragged Mu Family down.

The story was still circulating. Not to mention, many people were a bit warier to their adjutant after hearing this scene. Even though most adjutants would be the most loyal to the general, but there was no certainty.

Shangguan Xian used to look down on this story.

But seeing his own adjutant be the one to betray him, he felt that it was truly karma. He thought that such thing will not happen to him, but because of his mistake, his adjutant turned his head against him.

Would the other adjutant be the same?

Shangguan Xian didn't know.

Most of his soldiers had been eliminated in the war not long ago. There were only a few thousand left, which was far from when he used to be.

Among the capable people around him, the one he trusted the most is naturally his younger brother, Shangguan Xiao.

No matter what happened, Shangguan Xiao always supported him. Read Web s Online Free - Fire Fire -

People said that sblood relationship is very thin and couldn't be trusted. But Shangguan Xian knew that this would not happen to him and his younger brother.

Shangguan Xiao is also very capable.

And what Shangguan Xian wanted is for his younger brother to be the one to succeed him and continue in the army.

He's no longer worthy of this position. "Do you think I can do it?" Shangguan Xiao asked.

Shangguan Xian arched his eyebrows. "Don't underestimate yourself. I know very well that you're very capable and that's why I pick you."

Shangguan Xiao rolled his eyes and then laughed lightly. "If you really think so highly of me, then I'll take this role."

"Good." Shangguan Xian nodded and then looked into the distance, "Shangguan Yu had left?"

"Yes. He said that he wants to go back to the Capital City and settled everything for once and for all." Shangguan Xiao shrugged. They were not very close to their cousin but this incident this tstill had something to do with him.

"You're going there?"

There was the place Shangguan Yu mentioned about Shangguan Xian's family members. With so many of his soldiers already lost their family members, Shangguan Yu would naturally not publicize it and made Shangguan Xian be hated.

If they knew that Shangguan Yu saved sof their family members but didn't save theirs, it was unknown how they would react.

Just from the incident where Shangguan Xian's adjutant betrayed him, sother people might also be irrational.

At that time, Shangguan Xian will definitely suffer. "Yes. I'm retiring." Shangguan Xian was cleaning up his belongings. There were not many things he brought with him. To be honest, he felt somewhat at loss when he thought about retiring at such a young age.

But to stay here and face these soldiers who had lost too much….

He didn't have that courage or face. Shangguan Xiao watched his older brother and sighed. He had checked the place that Shangguan Yu mentioned to him before coming back here. As he had expected, there were several family members who were put in that small village.

The place was also quite remote and not easy to reach, so it was clear that Shangguan Yu put a lot of thoughts to keep them safe.

But what they could do for Shangguan Yu was not much.

Shangguan Xiao planned to watch how the Emperor would treat Shangguan Yu later and then decided his course of action.

Now that he would becthe next general, it was tfor him to take the revenge against Shi Long Kingdom.

When he thought about the pain they had suffered, Shangguan Xiao was filled with the flof rage.

All is fair in war.

But he never thought that these people would cross the bottom line even worse than Zhang Xu Kingdom, who already had the notorious reputation as the poisonous kingdom. "Do you wantto use your adjutant again?" Shangguan Xiao suddenly recalled something.

Shangguan Xian's adjutant was still there and Shangguan Yu also saved these adjutant's family members. It seemed that Shangguan Yu put the priority to save the higher ranked commanders' family members. However, they hadn't told him yet because Shangguan Xian wanted to be the one to explain.

Shangguan Xian paused for a moment. "I'll bring him withto the village. What he wanted to do afterwards is his decision. If he's willing to cback and be with you, I hope you can be kind to him."

"I will," Shangguan Xiao promised solemnly.
