VOLUME 5 CHAPTER 35: DON’T TELL ME THIS IS RIDING AS 3 FOR THOUSANDS OF MILES (12)

Yun Chang POV

“What are you…” I wasn’t sure how to react at her sudden movements and was about to use my blade to block when I remembered that she was unarmed and didn’t follow through with blocking.

She lunged onto me and pressed down hard, making me lose my balance and fall onto the ground hard.

“Kuh!” I cried out from landing on the back of head.

“And now I have repaid the debt I owe you for not killing me.” Liao Hua whispered in my ear.

“…” What does she mean?

When she saw a look of puzzlement on me and how I was getting ready to counter her, she signalled for me to look at the side with her eyes. I looked at where she was signalling and found an arrow buried in the sand

Even though there wasn’t anything just now… Wait, if I think back to just now, I did seem to hear something flying through the air.

Could it be?! I hurriedly got up and looked at Luoyang’s tall city walls.

Amongst the crowd was Han Fu. He had a bow in his hands and a quiver slung over the other. I can’t see his expression but I can tell he is getting frantic from his actions.

“That Han Fu wants to kill me?”

“…”

Putting everything I knew and had just seen together, this was the conclusion I reached. When I looked at Liao Hua, I saw that her face was calm, and she was clearly in the know about all this.

“The Administrator never thought that he would be defeated by martial bravery and virtue.”

“Un? Liao Hua?! What’s going on?” I was anxious and did not understand what Liao Hua was saying.

While I was still lost, Liao Hua had gotten up and made a gesture with her hand which she raised above her head.

“Everyone! The troops on the other side have been thoroughly defeated and since we can’t get in touch with General Du Yuan, I’ll take charge for now! Get in line, and return to the city!” Liao Hua yelled out and in the next instant, the Yellow Turban troops disappeared into the nearby forests.

“Eh? What’s going on?”

The sea of yellow was gone, and only casualties here and there as well as my troops and a puzzles Wen Yuan were left behind.

As I looked at her from afar, it felt like she hadn’t gotten enough action. The troops that had followed her charge, however, were panting profusely. Looks like the difficult journey that the troops from Xu state have been through has helped them endure such arduous battles.

I then turned to look at the city tower and find Han Fu but he wasn’t there anymore.
