1153 Grouping with Feng Ao Si



Nan Hua didn't answer.

"Even though the path differs from what I previously thought, I'll keep moving forward." Feng Ao Kuai turned to look at Nan Hua.

He opened his mouth and then closed it again.

He wanted to be part of Nan Hua's plan, but he also understood that he was still very weak. His current position might be able to influence the battlefield to some extent, but there were still many people who were much better than him.

What he needed was time.

But Nan Hua was moving faster than him.

So, Feng Ao Kuai knew that he wouldn't be able to be part of her plan. At least, not this time.

"So… Don't wait for me."

Nan Hua's eyes flickered. She looked at her older cousin and shook her head. "There's no hurry. The war is still only in its early phase. As we are now, we're just small butterflies flapping our wings and brought some changes. But no matter how small it is, the changes will definitely affect our surroundings."

Many of these changes were not something that Nan Hua expected.

But it was there nevertheless.

And Nan Hua had to be ready to face it.

"As the war continues, our stage to shine brightly will surely come." Nan Hua looked at Feng Ao Kuai and cupped her fist.

Feng Ao Kuai looked at Nan Hua's back and clenched his fist. This is his decision.

He will miss that grand battle that might be written in history, but Feng Ao Kuai had the feeling that it was fine. Not everyone was born to be someone who would always be on the top.

There will be times when others were the one at the limelight.

Small soldiers and infamous commanders were often forgotten. But it was through their sacrifices that a kingdom could stand tall. Without these unnamed people who had poured their sweat and blood, a kingdom could end up being destroyed and lost in the river of time.

And Feng Ao Kuai understood.

It was not his time yet.

There were countless geniuses in the world. They were all striving forward to grow and shine in their respective field. All of them were competitor with each other and it was because of this competition that they could also grow.

Above the sky was another sky.

It was a metaphor that his father often said to him. Feng Ao Kuai wanted to be the proud son of Heaven and stand tall amongst all geniuses, but his father only told him that one sentence.

And as Feng Ao Kuai grew up, he understood.

There were a lot of people who were better than him.

He was taught to be humble and to understand that everyone had their own role. What he needed was to catch the chance when his role could finally shine the brightest.

 

…

<Three Points City>

After that night talk, Nan Luo and Long Qian Xing departed to the south while there was another commander who was tasked to cooperate with Feng Ao Kuai to defend Da Yi City. In fact, there were several commanders of either 3000 to 5000 commanders who were deployed to Da Yi City.

But only two commanders had arrived.

The rest will arrive soon enough.

They would be the line of defense from Fei Yang Kingdom to prevent Zhang Xu Kingdom from interfering from their battle.

There was another line of defense at the East against Shi Long Kingdom, but Nan Hua was not familiar with any of the commanders there. With Fei Yang Kingdom focused heavily on military, there were already a lot of soldiers recruited over the years.

Even when Emperor Yang Zhou hadn't firmly taken his seat there, the increase in military power still continued.

It was the result of his grandfather's hard work and policy that had been implemented for decades. In other parts aside from the Capital City, the previous Emperor hadn't had the time to reach out because he was too busy in his harem.

And when Emperor Yang Zhou took charge, he naturally continued to strengthen Fei Yang Kingdom's military while pulling more and more people to his side.

Now, Fei Yang Kingdom's military is big and strong.

It was still recruiting and had a lot of trainings, but in overall situation, their military power was exceptionally strong.

"We're here." Nan Luo looked at the East Point City in front of him and felt the pressure. There were thousands of soldiers who were waiting to enter. In total, there ought to be more than a fifty thousand soldiers who were deployed to the frontline this time.

Fei Yang Kingdom was ready to go all out.

They wanted to completely destroy Wei Da Kingdom, leaving no chance for them to recover and counterattack.

"Nan Luo!"

Hearing that familiar voice as soon as Nan Luo entered the city, his lips twitched. He turned his head and saw Feng Ao Si waving his hand excitedly.

Seeing such a big man acting like a little kid…

The image was a bit too much.

Thankfully, Nan Luo had been tempered after seeing Feng Ao Si acted so stupidly that being bit childish would not shake him anymore. Though, the soldiers behind Nan Luo looked strange on their faces and tried their best not to change their expression.

"Brother Si," Nan Luo greeted the other party and leapt down from his horse. He waved his hand to tell Xiao Yan to bring the other soldiers to rest. They would not depart immediately, so it would be better for the soldiers to rest first.

"This time we're going to work together." Feng Ao Si grinned.

"I see." Nan Luo only sighed internally. Without Feng Ao Kuai, he knew that he would never be able to fully cooperate with Feng Ao Si.

"Right, where's Ao Kuai?"

"He's in Da Yi City."

"Huh?" Feng Ao Si was stunned. He was different from these two since he had been in the military longer. Even though his current rank was only one above these two, he rarely cooperated with them.

Nan Luo glanced at Feng Ao Si. "Feng Ao Kuai will not go with us this time."
