1496 “Battle Medal”

"It's done," Nan Hua said calmly, yet there was a hint of distress from her tone.

Long Qian Xing, who was used to pay close attention to Nan Hua, naturally didn't miss this. He turned around and looked at Nan Hua behind him hurriedly.

Seeing her indifferent expression yet her eyes seemed to show worry, Long Qian Xing showed a reassuring smile.

"I'm fine. Scars are the battle medal for men. It's nothing bad."

Nan Hua looked at Long Qian Xing and nodded lightly. Now that Long Qian Xing turned around, she realized that he had more scars on his front. Not to mention, there was a large scars from his right shoulder towards his left stomach.

It was definitely a fatal injury if not treated in a hurry.

"This is from my first battle against a general back then," Long Qian Xing saw Nan Hua's gaze and explained. "I was a bit impetuous and challenged him rashly, which resulted in this injury. Thankfully, I was treated by the doctor in time so I can still keep my life."

The actual condition was definitely not as simple as what Long Qian Xing said.

But Nan Hua knew that being a soldier was Long Qian Xing's dream and ambition. She understood that he wanted to protect his people through being a soldier. No matter what other people said, he would not give up on this path easily.

She also wouldn't persuade him to stop.

Betting their lives on countless life and death's battle, these were something that every soldiers had to go through. From the moment she decided to be with Long Qian Xing, she had to be prepared to lose him at any time because of the danger he faced at the frontline.

But even if she knew, it couldn't conceal her distress and heartache.

To be able to stand as a general, the journey he had treaded wouldn't be ordinary. For those who stood at the top, how many sweat, tears, and blood had been poured?

No one but those who personally experienced it will know.

"Be careful," in the end, that was all Nan Hua said.

But Long Qian Xing knew that she was supporting him in his decision and smiled reassuringly. He had reason why he had to go back alive and will do his best so that he would be able to keep this life of his.

While walking in this dangerous path, he will also try to protect himself for the sake of the people who cared for him and waiting for him.

Long Qian Xing raised his hand and patted Nan Hua's head tenderly.

He wanted to stay for a long time with this beauty.

It was only now he understood why many of his married soldiers would always talk about their partner at home. Knowing that there was someone waiting for them made them longed to be able to go home safely.

But he knew that there were still many things to do.

Long Qian Xing suppressed his emotion and stood up. "Fang Sheng Lin should have been treated by now. I'm going to see him now."

"Would you like me to take a look at his injuries?" Nan Hua asked.

She might not be the best, but she was still a qualified doctor to treat most injuries. At the very least, she could see whether Fang Sheng Lin's injuries could be recovered faster or not.

"Okay, you come with me."

Long Qian Xing quickly dressed up again and walked out of his tent. His soldiers were already retreating and putting on the defense around this temporary headquarter. Calculating the time, Great General Wei should arrive soon.

At this time, the group walked to the back area where a doctor was currently treating Fang Sheng Lin and stopping the bleeding.

"How's he?"

"He's very tough, General." The doctor had to admit that there was indeed someone who was much resistant to pain and could withstand such treatment without anesthesia.

Fang Sheng Lin raised his head and saw Long Qian Xing along with Nan Hua. He smirked. "General Xing come to me with a beauty?"

"Just stop the bleeding. I might beat him again later," Long Qian Xing said arrogantly.

Nan Hua glanced at Long Qian Xing and nodded obediently, looking at Fang Sheng Lin's wounds. With agile movement, she easily stopped the bleeding and sewed the wounds. At the same time, she checked his condition and her black obsidian pupil dilated slightly.

The doctor didn't leave and watched Nan Hua's action with surprise and praise. He didn't expect to see such a skilled young girl.

Fang Sheng Lin wanted to protest, but seeing how skilled this young woman is, he shut his mouth.

Instead, he looked at Long Qian Xing with some inquiry.

"How is he?" Long Qian Xing asked, ignoring the burning gaze of the tied up man in front of him.

"He had strong recovery ability and should recover with enough rest. But the gu inside his body might not be so easy to solve," Nan Hua replied, looking at Fang Sheng Lin's direction without any emotion.

Fang Sheng Lin's eyes showed surprise. "So you found it, huh?"

Nan Hua hummed lightly.

Long Qian Xing frowned when he heard about the gu. But thinking that Fang Sheng Lin was staying with Zhang Xu Kingdom, it was not a surprise that they would use such a despicable means to keep him.

"Leave us alone and clear the perimeter. I want to talk with him."

"Yes, General Xing."

Nan Hua and the doctor left along with the few soldiers who were guarding outside. They believed that with Long Qian Xing's means, he should be able to deal with Fang Sheng Lin who was tied up.

Fang Sheng Lin looked at Long Qian Xing warily. "You're not going to beat me up again, are you?"

He knew how ruthless Long Qian Xing was and didn't really want to suffer another beating after losing the battle.

Long Qian Xing snorted. "Don't pretend to forget. Call dad!"
