Chapter 40: No Problem, Promises are to be Kept

“Miss Gu, General Bai calls for you” A voice of a soldier came from outside

It was inappropriate for ordinary soldiers to enter her tent, so guards were stationed outside to relaythe voice, Gu Nan placed down the bronze sword that she was in the“Got it”

As Gu Nan spoke, she sheathed the sword back into her scabbard and stood up Why does Master need me for this time?

Gu Nan felt puzzled but she didn't care much anyways

She left the sword on the table and straightened out her armor

“Master” Gu Nan wore her ht but noticeable impatience “Shouldn't it be around the ti? What would you need runtled by her attitude “Why can't I, your master call for you whenever? For instance, if I asked you to come to this battlefield, could you say no?”

“Yeah, yeah, yeah” Gu Nan said unenthusiastically This oldshe could contend with

” Look at your expression, you're probably saying things behind my back” Bai Qi's beard shook, but he decided not to care further

He stood up fro it over his shoulders

“Let's go then” Bai Qi folded his hands behind him and walked out of the tent “Today, it's a lesson for you”

Gu Nan stood behind and barred her teeth angrily She has assu would at least be an escape froht that Bai Qi would bring the classrooh…

Gu Nan slouched her shoulders Without realizing Bai Qi was already quite a bit ahead, and she hurriedly jolted forward to catch up

Ar fields

The unblocked sun made it feel hot, yet the cold winds chilled relentlessly Such was the harsh environh the neckline,her cloak closer

She was still perplexed It's the training fields, but why does she need to learnof this, Gu Nan's face turned blue When his hand falls, he's neither light nor heavy, but she knows fully that she'll be beaten up multiple times

But then, she looked to see about ten of the Iron Cavalry guard push forward a depressive looking leas and were frightening like demons The rippleless eyes, exposed from the masks, made the soldiers seem dead

The ten soldiers were covered in an oppressive feeling, just glancing at theinary chill could form

But Gu Nan didn't feel any of that She was busy adnitudes better than what she earing

Looking down at her own flihed and shook her head

As the dilapidatedescorted took a look at Gu Nan, his brows furrowed to inspect her

The ed man wore the armor of Zhao, and there were h none were life-threatening Frorave Even if he wasn't fatally wounded, he's unlikely to survive htly tied to his neck, reddening his thin collar area

Step by step, he was pulled along by the Iron Cavalry guards

As the soldiersand stepping back, their actions were swift and tidy

The leader of the group stepped forward and slightly bowed as well “General, the Zhao spy has been brought”

Behind hiuards flanked the prisoner and pressed their hands down on his shoulders, sending a kick to his legs

The prisoner's knees buckled and he slammed onto the dirt

Spies? Scouts? Gu Nan stood behind Bai Qi and took a look at this man, only to lock eyes with the prisoner

It was a pair of eyes that held deep resentlimpse, Gu Nan felt her heart beco the Zhao spy with a plain tone, “Do you have anything you would like to say?”

The prisoner raised his head and quietly looked back with a sneer

Bai Qi nodded undisturbed as if this was just another useless procedure

He was silent for a while and looked back at Gu Nan

“Nan'er, kill hi in full and the field felt hot Yet this sentence made her feel cold

Gu Nan stood still for a couple e smile “Master…”

“Kill him first”
