157 Extra The Bai family’s first master (2) Part II

“Wangye doesn’t like being close to women, then why approach Yu-er so often?” Bai He decided to ask Ouyang Feilong directly. This had always been the way between him and his commander when there was an issue that could sour the trust between them. This was the goodwill of the men who had been through life and death together.

“Because she’s your sister.”

“And because she’s my sister, I’d like to ask what Wangye is thinking.”

“Wangye is thinking that she’s your sister.” 𝐟𝘳𝑒𝗲𝘸e𝒃𝘯𝒐𝐯e𝚕.c𝒐𝒎

“If that is what Wangye thinks, then I have nothing to worry about.”

The relationship between Bai Yu and Ouyang Feilong could become a problem for the commander-general in the future. Bai He chose to warn him before things could change to the point that it was impossible to undo.

He did it both as Bai Yu’s older brother and as Ouyang Feilong’s younger brother.

“Benwang knows what you want to say.”

“Then please consider it carefully.”

.....

The Bai family had known ever since the day Bai Yu was born that she was destined to be the mother of this nation, not an ordinary woman. That was why his father could not choose a side in court, why his mother had to be strict with Bai Yu and teach her to become perfect for her role in the future. And as the older brother, he had to protect her to the best of his ability until that day came...

If Bai Yu chose Ouyang Mingxian, Bai He would continue to support her like before.

But the kiss he saw between his commander and his beloved sister made him realize… If it was true love that they shared, then it would be a small event that resulted in a substantial change in Da Yang.

The Bai family’s first master was ready to give his support, no matter whom his sister loved...

But if he could help it...he did not want her to marry anyone of Ouyang’s name!

—————–

This was the first time this year that he had received a letter from the Yue family’s first master, who had hidden himself within the divine valley.

Yue Nan was his older cousin who was born not too long before him. They rarely contacted each other ever since Yue Nan went to cultivate in the divine valley, and Bai He himself was also busy with the military. Still, their closeness had never decreased.

Today, the content of the magic letter was not the usual greetings but a short sentence: ‘Da Chu’s plan.’

At first, Bai He was unsure of the meaning behind those words. However, after being assigned by Ouyang Feilong’s missions to accompany Ouyang Mingxian and investigate the snow bandits, it started to dawn on him.

The Wang family conspired with Da Chu. They created the snow bandits to confuse Da Yang.

He had to urgently inform Ouyang Feilong about this. But before he could send his magic messenger, men from the secret unit he had ordered to guard Ouyang Mingxian came to report that Qin Wang was ambushed by mysterious men who were suspiciously strong.

Ouyang Mingxian’s soldiers were on the losing side. Bai He had to hurry to aid him. When he arrived, he met with Ouyang Mingxian and Bai Hua, who had unexpectedly appeared in the middle of the forest. His men were guarding them.

This woman beside Qin Wang could be the reason for Yu-er’s retreat. That meant no man from the Ouyang family was worthy of his sister!

“You...” f𝔯ℯe𝓌ℯ𝐛𝒏𝐨ѵel.c𝚘𝐦

Ouyang Mingxian was surprised to see that his rescuer was Bai He. This lieutenant-general had always been open about his displeasure with him, whom his sister had fallen in love with.

“The commander-general has ordered me to protect Wangye. We should hurry.”

“Uncle?” Ouyang Mingxian was not slow, still, he and his uncle were never close. Why would he send someone to protect him? He had to suppress his question. It seemed the enemy reinforcement had come, and now they clearly outnumbered Bai He’s group.

“Damn it!” Bai He spat out a curse. With this style of fighting, how could the lieutenant-general of the border army like him not remember who these men belonged to?

“What is it?”

“They are Da Chu’s secret force, Your Highness.”

He and the secret unit had faced them before. Their commander was the second prince, Chu Zhaoran, though these men in front of them seemed slightly different from those he had fought with before...

“Careful!”

Whoooosh… Thud!

Arrows from those hidden on the trees rained on them. In the fragment of a time that decided life and death, he could not conjure up a magic barrier to protect himself from all of them. Bai He had to use himself to shield an arrow that was flying at Ouyang Mingxian.

“Ugh...”

The dignified lieutenant-general fell as soon as an arrow shot into his chest. A strange pain ran through his body. Bai He instantly realized how this secret force was different from those from before.

“Their weapons...ugh...are coated with poison.”

“There’s poison in their weapons!” Ouyang Mingxian, who was closest to Bai He, immediately shouted to spread the information to the men on his side. “Hua-er!”

His half-sister appeared next to Ouyang Mingxian. Strangely, she was calm and not frantic like a normal woman. “Please let me take care of brother.”

Bai He did not have enough consciousness to know how Bai Hua treated his injury and stopped the poison from reaching his heart. His dark eyes were nearly closed, but he refused to give in. The Eagle of the army grabbed his half-sister’s hand and ordered her without caring about how she would continue her first aid. “Take him and go.”

“But, brother...” Bai Hua shook her head. She glanced at Ouyang Mingxian, who was fighting three enemies at once, a sword in his hand. She seemed to be weighing something in her mind.

“Go!”

Clang!

Bai He raised his voice at Bai Hua while at the same time taking out a concealed weapon and throwing it to deflect an arrow that was aimed at Ouyang Mingxian. However, what he did could only change its course from the middle of his back to his upper arm. Ouyang Mingxian’s right arm was shot by the arrow, robbing him of his strength to carry his sword and allowing the opponent to raise his sword. Ouyang Mingxian successfully evaded the attack, though his side was grazed.

“...He’s poisoned...”

Bai He believed that Da Chu must be using several types of poison in this ambush. He could not let Ouyang Mingxian be harmed, not even a scratch on him, and it seemed Bai Hua had appeared at the right place at the right time. “Take him!”

This time, Bai Hua did not hesitate. With both understandings of Bai He’s determination and care for Ouyang Mingxian, she ran to the man surrounded by the protection of soldiers of Da Yang’s secret unit and took him with her, leaving behind only a few men to hold back the enemy.

“Protect Qin Wang!... Ugh...” Bai He gave his last order before coughing out blood. The sound of battle overtook the area, though the lieutenant-general could not force his eyes open long enough to witness the result. The pain from the poisoned wound that was temporarily stopped started to spread again...

Bai He’s breath was softer and softer.

“Ugh...” His bloodstained hand weakly reached out, grasping at his sword. He did not want to hold his sword and fight until his last breath. What he wanted was the small fragrance pouch that he had hung on the sword’s hilt.

This talisman of victory was not an invaluable treasure. It was merely a black fragrance pouch, embroidered with little butterflies.

Bai Yu had put her heart into this. He tightly held the pouch, scrunching it in his fist. He wanted to have his sister beside him in his last moment...

“Fate, written in heaven, could not be changed...” A low voice from a silver-haired man was heard at the same time as a silver light shone over the battle scene. Bai He felt himself being held in someone’s warm embrace.

Warmth ran throughout his poisoned body. The pain that was as if being plunged into the depths of hell slowly disappeared… Bai He had received another chance at life.

“You...” He forced his eyes to open, wanting to see the one who had saved his life. Silver hair was the first thing he saw.

“You should rest first, biaodi.*”

“Yue...Nan...” His lips, painted with blood, curved into a relieved smile.

“Changing fate will result in loss...” Through his eyes, Yue Nan returned a smile to his younger cousin, who was only a few years after him. “...But she would not have the will to fight if that loss is your life.”

“Ugh...” Bai He did not understand the meaning behind Yue Nan’s words, and he could say nothing because of the pitch-black blood that was coughed up again, staining both of them. Bai He glanced around and discovered that the enemies were all defeated by this man’s magic.

“Sleep...” A hand came to close his eyelids. “...And do your best to wake up.”

Unable to resist, Bai He closed his eyes.

Yu-er… Brother will take a short nap first, then brother will wake up as soon as possible to protect you from all the Ouyang men!

No one deserved his sister’s hand!
