Forgotten Legend of the Bloodied Flower

Chapter 919: Initiative

After all, there were butterfly effects and Nan Hua couldn't be absolutely sure that everyone was still as it was.     

That was why she came here.     

But it looked like that her thoughts were unnecessary as Yu Jin would still be very angry at Zhang Xu Kingdom who was more prone to use despicable means. Even during war, they had done that countless times.     

"We're here, you should make your fire and have some rest. It'll be soon time for lunch. After that, I'll take you for a little hike."     

"Alright, Jin Jie."     

Yu Jin grinned.     

She had long wanted to have another family members as it would definitely strengthen her position here. It was not like her position was weak, but she wanted to be in complete control of the entire Mountain Tribe.     

Besides, having powerful and talented people by her side was definitely more reassuring than having them as enemies.     

Nan Hua might not be the best candidate because she was from Dark Moon Organization.     

But Yu Jin was willing to take the risk.     

"I'm going to eat first."     

Yu Jin swaggered into the hut and saw Ye Jian was there, bandaging her wound. She grinned to the other party. "There's no hurry now."     

Ye Jian passed a sidelong glance. "If I'm not fast enough, I'll bleed to death."     

"Oh."     

Ye Jian: "…"     

Why did it seem that Yu Jin wouldn't care whether she was bleeding or not? However, Ye Jian didn't dwell on that thought for a long time because she had to focus on her hand. The position made it hard for her to do it alone.     

However, she would never ask for Yu Jin's help.     

"What happened?"     

"They suddenly came and barge in. I was a bit late in sensing their presence, but I managed to toss a few knives to hinder them. Two of them attacked me and they're as fast as you." Ye Jian was a bit frustrated when she remembered the events that happened just now.     

She felt that she was really too weak to be able to hold the high position in Mountain Tribe.     

"Don't blame yourself. They're using medicines to enhance their physical abilities for a short period of time. Unfortunately, the side effect is that they wouldn't be able to last for a long time."     

Yu Jin snorted.     

She sat on the table and grabbed some meat buns on the table to eat. There was no need for her to pay attention to her manners as there was no one else here anymore. She was not a person who would care about this either.     

"If the elders are here, they'll reprimand you again, Queen Yu." Ye Jian smiled bitterly.     

"Let them be." Yu Jin frowned and snorted.         

The elders were the people who helped her to manage the Mountain Tribe. If there was no one who was strong enough to be the leader of the entire Mountain Tribe, the highest decision makers would be the elders.     

But they would need to have deal with each other before they could decide on something.     

But Yu Jin is the acknowledged absolute leader of Mountain Tribe.     

She had the power and ability needed to hold this position. Not to mention, a lot of people were willing to follow her because of various reasons even from the time when she was still young.     

Thus, the elders decided that Yu Jin would be the Mountain Tribe's leader.     

Even if she's a woman, she's someone who had the capabilities. Because of that, they didn't mind in the slightest bit.     

"That Lei B*stard will surely send more people before they hear our answer." Yu Jin swallowed the meat bun inside her mouth and sneered. "I don't like his game and I have no plans on playing them. If he really wants to make the Mountain Tribe as his enemy, I'll be happy to oblige."     

Prime Minister Lei was someone who was very meticulous and would not make a move so hastily. He would calculate different types of action and determine which one would give him the best benefit.     

That was the only way he could possibly control the court and also the military.     

However, the only reason why he dared to make a move to Mountain Tribe must because that prince was already close to coming of age. Once the prince was of age, they would be able to deal with the current emperor and put the new emperor to the throne.     

Between a capable ambitious person and a useless old person, naturally they would pick the former.     

"But it's too slow."     

Yu Jin knew that the prince was a few years younger compared to Fei Yang Kingdom's Emperor. And coincidentally, that very emperor was also equally ambitious and wanted to swallow the entire Zhang Xu Kingdom whole.     

Fights would be inevitable.     

"Will you take the initiative this time?" Ye Jian asked with a frown. She was a bit worried that making enemies out of Zhang Xu Kingdom would actually put them in bad situation.     

"Fei Yang Kingdom had already taken over the south of Wei Da Kingdom, so our border is now just between Zhang Xu Kingdom and Fei Yang Kingdom." Yu Jin looked at Ye Jian. "Which side do you think will win?"     

Which side?     

Ye Jian was at loss.     

The two kingdoms had their advantage and disadvantages. In fact, if she had to give her opinion, Fei Yang Kingdom and Zhang Xu Kingdoms were both the two strongest kingdoms among the six kingdoms in this land.     

But naturally, that was just her opinion in rough calculation.     

If she thought carefully, she would notice that each kingdom had their own advantage and disadvantages. From terrain, culture, people, system, to law. Some of them might be similar but most of them were different.     

It would be difficult to judge which one was actually the strongest.     

"I… don't know."     

That was the only answer Ye Jian could give.
