Flowers Bloom from Battlefield-Chapter 353: Kidnapped

The gate stayed silent for a short time before a person appeared. Going by appearance alone, he didn't seem to be any different from them. However, the clothes he wore were rather strange in their eyes.

"Who are you?" the man asked in an annoyed voice.

"We are travelers, and we kind of lost in this fog. Is it possible for us to go inside?" Ming Hui answered with a polite tone.

The man swept his gaze across them for once before nodding his head. He didn't show any expression as he opened the gate and allowed them to come inside. After that, he simply left them with a swift movement.

The way he moved caused both Jun Hua and Soujin to narrow their eyes. They realized that the way they move was not a clumsy one, but that of an expert. The people in this tribe were not ordinary people, but they were soldiers or martial artists.

They went to the inn under the unfriendly gaze of the people. After giving the payment, they went to their respective room as the guard stayed alert. The situation in this tribe was not that of peace.

"They don't like outsiders to come," Yan holed himself in Ming Hui and Fan Lanying's room.

Ming Hui sat on the chair as he nodded, "They have long been left alone here. Besides, with the natural environment full of fog, there will be hardly anyone who can come here." ƒ𝔯𝗲𝗲𝙬𝒆𝚋𝐧oѵℯl.𝒄𝑜m

Yan looked outside the window. Inside the village, the fog lessened, but they still couldn't see more than five meters clearly. The people here would have advantages if they were to be attacked since they were not used with this kind of environment.

Yan frowned, "This place is really suitable if they want to launch a covert attack."

"You don't have to worry, Shu will surely protect you," Ming Hui reminded him.

Yan nodded his head. He was not worried over being targeted. After all, Shu will protect him first. As for Ming Hui and Fan Lanying, Jun Zhenxian said that he would protect them, so his room located near them. Even though he already lost an arm, he was still a former general. Ordinary people wouldn't be able to match up against him. Besides, Yasha, Yamin, and Lou were assigned to watch over them.

The safest room would probably Jun Hua and Soujin's room. The two of them were simply ridiculously strong, so they were tasked to stand guard the longest.

"Why don't we divide the room to be men and women?" Yan sighed.

"It won't do," Ming Hui answered, "Jun Hua won't be able to protect too many people at once."

"There are only three women here."

Ming Hui shrugged as he pulled out the map on the side. Counting their location, he marked the map and pondered. How long would it take for them to reach the inner place if they were to be hindered by the fog?

On the other room, Jun Hua also did the same thing with Ming Hui. With her brush, she started to draw both the detail and the map. She frowned when she noticed that the area they were going into was a small place, located between the sea and the river.

"Your drawing is still superb," Soujin peered to her picture.

Jun Hua looked up, "Based on the map, there should be only small areas here. However, with the fog here, we won't be able to see the place."

"Where do you think the tribe is located?"

Jun Hua took her brush and pointed to two locations, one at the sea and one at the land. She glanced up to Soujin, "You have already thought about it, don't you?"

Soujin nodded. With the small place here, there was no way they should be able to overwhelm the invasion from Pan Kingdom continuously. The only answer would be they have a different army located somewhere. If it was not a big city at the center, they should be on an island on the sea.

"If he really runs to the sea, we won't be able to chase after him," Soujin's army was not proficient in the water. The same would apply for Jun Hua because of their post. If they want, they would need to use the army from the previous Kai Kingdom. However, the two of them were sure that the ability of the soldiers was not up to par with the people here.

The other places that have the water army would be Yuan Kingdom. Still, their number was not much because of the peace treaty and all.

Jun Hua nodded her head. She yawned. It seemed she was feeling quite sleepy after a long journey, though in Jun Hua's opinion she should be fine. Was this the after effect after not practicing as much as before? Her physical strength should be still far more than ordinary people. In addition, she should have already recovered because she didn't use martial arts for months.

"Rest first, you shouldn't burden your body too much," Soujin pointed to the bed.

Jun Hua nodded her head. Somehow, she felt rather drowsy. Did she sick? If she was, then the time was truly annoying. Lying on the bed, Jun Hua closed her eyes and drifted to sleep. On the side, Soujin accompanied her before he too snuggled into the bed.

When the dawn came, Soujin and Jun Hua woke up at the same time. They could sense people coming to their room. From the hostility aura they showed, they didn't seem to have any good intention in coming here.

Before long, the sound of sword clashing overwhelmed the place. 𝑓𝓇𝑒𝑒𝚠e𝘣𝓷𝘰ѵe𝑙.com

"The fogs are so annoying!" Ming Hui yelled in an annoyed tone. He almost got hit because the opponent hid in the fog.

"The only one who can fight rather well in this condition would be those two," Yan pointed to the side as he kicked his opponent to the ground.

From their position, they could see two silhouettes of people rapidly moving around. Whenever they move, the people who come over fell down in a matter of seconds. Compared to them, they still had to fight for a long time. Well, a comparison was really hurt.

Ming Hui looked towards the two of them who moved farther as he frowned. Somehow, he cannot seem to shake this feeling of unease. Was there something he forgot when he came here?

CLANG!

On the side of Ming Hui, Fan Lanying was fighting, but her movement was rather sluggish compared with her usual movement. If one didn't know how she usually fights, they wouldn't notice the difference so quickly.

"Lanying, are you alright?" Ming Hui hurriedly came over.

Fan Lanying nodded. She frowned as she looked towards Ming Hui with complicated expression, "I just feel that my body is heavier than usual."

Ming Hui hurriedly checked her pulse. He was stunned before he checked his own pulse and then Yan's. Because of his action, he nearly got sacked if not for Yamin arrival.

"Focus on the battle!" Yan shouted.

Ming Hui took Yamin's hand and checked it before his face paled, "Call Jun Hua back, right now!"

"What is it?"

"There is poison in the fog that's affecting women," Ming Hui answered, "She won't be able to fight as she usually is!"

With that remark, Yasha sprinted towards Jun Hua's place. His heart was pounding relentlessly. He knew that Jun Hua was extremely proficient in martial arts, so she should be fine. Although he tried to calm himself down when he ran, his speed didn't decrease in the slightest.

In the matter of seconds, he arrived at the place where he last saw Jun Hua. However, he couldn't found the girl anymore as he noticed a scrap from clothes on the ground. From the color and texture, he knew that it belonged to Jun Hua.
