Chapter 1951 General Lei’s Move

"We won." General Lei, Lei Lu Yao, looked at the retreating soldiers in front of him and finally felt at ease. He had been put in difficult situation because of his decision and hoped that he picked the right decision for his people. Now, it was proven that they were right. "It's not done yet," Ye Shu Ken said as he came to Lei Lu Yao's side. "We still need to move them to our place to settle down. I hope you don't mind having to rebuild your village again when you arrived."

"It's a small price to pay," Lei Lu Yao said lightly. He looked at the bodies of the soldiers who were being left behind and shook his head. "As long as I can protect them, I don't really care where I'm placed or who I sided with."

Without ever meeting with Shi Long Kingdom, Lei Lu Yao would never know that there were actually the outside world that was filled with so much dangers. He would stay in his village, staying with his people and continued to develop there as much as possible. But they could never catch up with these big kingdoms.

It was a fact that Lei Lu Yao knew very well. So he could only bow down his head and followed them, for the sake of the people who trusted him and followed him. He wanted to make sure that they're all continued to stay alive because only when they're alive would there be possibility for their future. "You should convince them first. We'll move at the first chance we got," Ye Shu Ken said. "Got it." Lei Lu Yao smiled. Ye Shu Ken stayed in place while Lei Lu Yao headed to the village in order to talk to his people. When they were attacked by Shi Long Kingdom in the past, they were all willing to listen to Ye Shu Ken because they knew that the only reason why they were spared was in order to control Lei Lu Yao.

More than anything, they felt guilt. Because without them, Lei Lu Yao and the men didn't have to risk their lives and joined with Shi Long Kingdom in their battle of conquest. When he was looking, Pan Lei Yin came to him and then asked, "How is it going on with him?"

"They'll move their people soon. We'll need to protect them when they're moving," Ye Shu Ken replied. "I don't mind as long as you know." Pan Lei Yin grinned. Ye Shu Ken snorted when he saw the greedy look in Pan Lei Yin's face. "Don't worry, I'll prepare enough remuneration for your help in this matter when everything is over."

"Good. You better not take back your words," Pan Lei Yin said and then walked away in leisure pace. Watching Pan Lei Yin's back, Ye Shu Ken shook his head. The three of them had been fighting a lot in their own territory over the years. Even until now, there hadn't been any result whatsoever aside from them disliking each other. But then again, it didn't seem to be a good idea to start wars between themselves. They were all having problems here and there, which was not very good in overall. And this one sudden war with Shi Long Kingdom had already further exhaust their resources. Not a single one of them were willing to stay in this protected battle. After this, it might even be impossible for them to stay together all the time.

They would definitely have other conflicts with each other. Ye Shu Ken walked back to their camp and saw Ming Shi Hong who was singing loudly with his men. Looking at how messy he was, Ye Shu Ken was speechless.

The other people from Ming Family were also following their leader, dancing and singing loudly. 'For the Heaven's sake… they're all crazy.'

Seeing this spicy eyes scene, Ye Shu Ken quickly turned around. He felt that the longer he interacted with the Ming Family, the more he would doubted their sanity. Even if they were quite capable on the battlefield, the current scene was far from being able to show any of those.

The other soldiers were also looking at Ming Family's direction with a blank face. They seemed to be unable to understand why these people were having so much fun like this without caring about their image whatsoever. …

Shangguan Xian had officially stepped down and the one who replaced him was his younger brother, Shangguan Xiao. Not surprisingly, the soldiers in the army didn't have any objection whatsoever to this arrangement. They had long followed the two brothers when they were fighting in the past and knew that Shangguan Xiao was capable. There were many times when Shangguan Xian was the one who listened to Shangguan Xiao's arrangement in battles. Thus, the transfer of power was done quietly and peacefully.

In fact, it was so peaceful and natural as if nothing had ever happened.

During this period of time, Shi Long Kingdom kept on knocking on their border but coming to the familiar place, Shangguan Xiao was able to deploy the appropriate defense and stopped them from entering Fei Yang Kingdom's territory. There was no fancy battles, brutal massacre, or whatever. The two armies were clashing against each other and then go back when it was night time. Shangguan Yu focused on defending while the general from Shi Long Kingdom focused completely in terms of offense. With Heavenly General Sang in charge of the army from Shi Long Kingdom, Shangguan Xiao was forced to stay passive. It was quite frustrating to think, but Shangguan Xiao was bidding his time. Because he knew that if he had to fight head on, he was truly not a match against Heavenly General Sang. But he didn't believe that there wouldn't be a chance for him to turn the tables around. So he chose to bid his time patiently.
