Chapter 1417 The Follow Up

"Yes." Long Qian Xing pursed his lips. He realized that Strategist Mang was quite smart and knew that time was of essence the most in this battle. They had already moved and made their way out so that they could deliver the poison away from here.

Still…

"The poison is real."

Even though he was not near Commander Mang Bi, he noticed the changes in the few soldiers of Zhang Xu Kingdom who were nearby. Not a single one of them managed to run away far before they dropped dead.

Everyone always thought that the people in Zhang Xu Kingdom would have high poison resistance because of how common it was for them to encounter poison there. But the truth was that majority of them only have normal poison resistance that was not much different from ordinary people.

It was impossible to say how much it was.

But it was definitely not as good as what many people were thinking.

Thus, the soldiers from Zhang Xu Kingdom were the first to bear the brunt when the poison was released from Commander Mang Bi's hand.

"They divided the dose and send the other half in Strategist Meng's hand." Nan Hua looked into the distance. She had already told Nan Si to follow Strategist Mang when they departed to ambush Commander Mang Bi.

After all, Strategist Mang had quietly disappear not long after the battle ended at that time. He handed everything to Commander Mang Bi and many people would not even notice that he was not in his tent.

But Nan Hua knew.

Those people who could wield the title of Strategist or Great General or other astounding titles were all not stupid.

Once or twice, they could make some mistakes because of oversight. But their real capabilities had to be good for them to be able to stand at the position that overlooked many people below them.

"It's not possible to head there anymore." Long Qian Xing glanced to the back, his eyes darkened slightly. "What a ruthless man."

Sacrificing the lives of thousands of soldiers for the sake of taking the poison away from here. And now, he knew that they themselves wouldn't be able to pass through this area anymore.

The best way for them to catch up was to turn around and circle through the villages.

But at that time, the people from Strategist Mang's side would have long disappeared as their road was smoother.

There was not much difference between their warhorse and Fei Yang Kingdom's warhorse. If anything, the total speed should be similar and the chance for them to catch up would be close to zero.

"What a mess." Long Qian Xing sighed. "I guess I can only tell them to pay more attention during battle."

"Mhm."

Nan Hua nodded.

"As for Lin Sun…" Long Qian Xing sneered. "He wouldn't be able to get out of the mountain alive in his entire life."

Without the medicine and the fact that he was being a coward, it was time for him to start his plan. The person he had planted in Lin Family Mountain will start to make his move this time.

Nan Hua thought of Lin Sun and pushed the matter to the back of her head.

Since Long Qian Xing was confident in this matter, then she will leave it be. Anyway, he wouldn't be able to do anything for the next few months. Even if the plan ever failed, it was not too late to arrange another assassination several months later when the poison reserve in Lin Family Mountain was more depleted.

<Nan Si's location>

Swish!

Running through the forest in full speed, Nan Si was circling Lin Family Mountain in search for the whereabouts of Strategist Mang and the others. But as he continued to run around, he realized that there was no sight of Strategist Mang at all.

Nan Si was essentially a martial artist.

But years of training under Nan Hua and Dark Moon Organization had given him the skill set needed for him to become a good assassin. Thus, he ended up being one of the few people who had the best skill.

Tep!

Stopping suddenly, Nan Si looked at the ground in front of him. It was softer than the other soil around.

Something was dug recently.

Caressing the ground below him, Nan Si understood that he had failed.

Strategist Mang had already left this area long ago with the poison bottle. The message exchange that happened between them not long ago and the fact that Commander Mang Bi was busy with the bottle had to be fake.

It was a bait.

'This mission fails.'

Nan Si sighed and shifted his body, running back to the camp. He knew very well that if he failed to find Strategist Mang at the periphery of Lin Family Mountain, his mission would be considered a failure.

It has been a while since the last time he failed Nan Hua's mission.

Hopefully, the punishment this time was not as harsh it was in the past.

<Strategist Mang's location>

Drap! Drap! Drap!

In the quiet night, the sound of horses galloping at high speed was very clear. Not to mention, there were not only one or two but an entire battalion of horses were running at full speed on the road.

On top of the horses, the soldiers were all wearing solemn expression.

They knew very well that they had to stay focused and made sure that they get out of this place as fast as possible.

This was the only way for them to survive.

"Strategist Mang, we're about to reach the main road soon."

"Good. Continue to the south." Strategist Mang narrowed his eyes. Should Long Qian Xing ambushed that Commander Mang Bi, they would be delayed for a longer time. And with the poison spreading on the ground, it was estimated that the condition would be extremely bad.

This would give him everything he needed to escape.

"Giddy up!"

"Yes!"
