Flowers Bloom from Battlefield

379 You’re Not Allowed to Die!

When Soujin returned back to the residence, he could painfully see the mess on the residence. The awful condition of the house made him remembered the time when his father was taken away. He forcefully pushed his feeling down as he moved to search for his wife and along the way, he finished the cleaning up for the assassins.

"Hua\'er," he called out in panic. Where did she go? His feet brought him to the garden where there were a lot of servants busy cleaning up the things there with a woman stood in the middle of the garden.

Jun Hua noticed Soujin\'s call. She turned her head and looked towards the man behind her with a pained smile, "Soujin, you have returned."

"What happened?" Soujin asked carefully.

The girl\'s eyes shifted downwards as she pointed towards one of the men on the side, "They suddenly come to assassinate me. You can interrogate them using whatever means you have."

Soujin stilled for a moment at the cold tone from the girl\'s voice. Jun Hua was not a cold-blooded person who will kill people without much thought. She might be a general, but she always hated the thought of torturing the prisoners, which was the reason she rarely did that. This was the first time he saw Jun Hua looked like she was ready to go on a killing spree.

He looked around, and his eyes stopped at a certain man on the side. He understood. She was angry because they wounded someone she cared so much right in front of her. Not only angry, it was pure rage. When she nearly lost him and he nearly lost her, he had experienced the same feeling.

"I will do that later. First thing first, let\'s go inside," Soujin took Jun Hua\'s hand slowly. He peered towards her eyes before taking her into his embrace.

The feeling of being in someone\'s arm made Jun Hua felt comfort. All along, she was wielding the heavy feeling by herself, but now she felt that her weight had lightened. He will protect her and he won\'t let her experience the bad thing by herself. With that thought, Jun Hua buried her head into Soujin\'s embrace deeper as if she was determined to take his entire being for herself.

On the side, Lou moved his feet and helped with the cleaning process. During the time Soujin sprinted to the residence, he had done his best to keep up with the other party. He knew that Soujin was desperate, which made him feel that he was rather useless to help him.

"Xia, are there many damages?" He stopped the scurried girl and asked.

Xia shook her head, "Most of the servants managed to escape on time and the guards protected them. But…"

Lou knew where Xia glanced at. The shameless old man who had given them countless trouble in the past was now riddled in wounds. Even if they felt that the old man was terribly annoying, none of them hoped for the other party death. They genuinely wished for the old man to stay strong during the treatment.

He sighed and helped Xia as his mind wondered about his Master and Mistress. He hoped that they would be able to keep their feeling up and didn\'t let this incident affected Jun Hua\'s condition too badly.

Soujin finally took Jun Hua out from his embrace and carried the girl to their residence. He heard a commotion from the front gate and increased his vigilance. It was unneeded, though, because the one who came was his mother.

Qin Shie looked at the two young people in front of her and the mess around them. It was terribly similar to what she had experienced years ago and based on Jun Hua\'s expression, she knew that the things that happened was not that simple.

"Hua\'er, let\'s have some rest," Qin Shie beckoned her to come closer.

Jun Hua nodded her head. Soujin put her down carefully and let her followed after Qin Shie. They reached Jun Hua\'s room, and she lay down on her bed. If she let her emotion get her too badly, she knew that her child will be affected, so she tried to calm herself down.

Qin Shie caressed the girl\'s hair in silent and hugged the young girl close to her. During these kinds of times, the most important thing was for her to keep the other party company because she knew that no word can help her. Inside her room, Jun Hua finally calmed herself down and instructed her servants\' things they had to do to clean up the mess.

Soujin interrogated the man while the servants clean up the courtyard. He glanced to Lou who splashed water to wake up the unconscious assassin. The assassin opened his eyes and looked towards the general in front of him with wide eyes.

"General Soujin," he hissed.

"You better answer the reason why you attack this residence," Soujin said bluntly. He wanted the answer as fast as possible.

"Did you really think that I would tell you?" the assassin sneered. He knew that he would have to face the brutal way of Soujin\'s torture, but he was not afraid. As a trained assassin, he knew very well the way of torturing people that was hurt and long.

"Yes you will," Soujin glanced to the side and waved his hand, "I have learned a lot of things from Lady Gao Ya. She is truly an excellent person to teach about torturing."

The assassin arched his eyebrow, "Who in the world did you talking about?"

Soujin narrowed his eyes at the assassin\'s remark. He smiled, "You will know after you experience this."

In the next hours, the room was filled with the assassin\'s scream of agony, pain, and fear, but Soujin just watched the other party with a pair of cold eyes. His expression at that time was similar to that of a death god, watching his men doing the torture without any feeling. Only after the assassin begged did he stopped his servants and glanced towards the assassin indifferently.

"Will you answer my question?"

"Yes…" he groaned and quickly answered.

Soujin started his barrage of questions, and the man answered them one by one cleanly. Before long, he had told everything to Soujin and the enraged Soujin ordered his servants to end this assassin\'s life. He cleaned up himself before visiting his wife again.

"Are you alright?" he asked.

Jun Hua nodded her head, "I\'m already feeling much better."

She cannot say that she was completely fine, but she tried her best to leave those feeling behind.

Soujin nodded his head. He looked to the gate, "My grandfather had come. Do you want to meet with him?"

Jun Hua shook her head, "I think the real reason Grandpa Souka come here is because he wants to meet with his old friend."

Soujin arched his eyebrows when he heard how Jun Hua called her grandfather as such. He didn\'t really like the way she called him, even if it was suitable for the other party.

"There shouldn\'t be anything wrong in what I say, right?" Jun Hua noticed Soujin expression changed a little bit.

Soujin sighed, "I know. Let\'s get inside."

Jun Hua shifted her gaze towards the garden. Nanglong Souka has come inside and he walked straight to his old friend body. Even when the doctor asked him to stay away, he didn\'t go too far. She knew that the old man wouldn\'t want to stay away from his friend at times like this, despite the other party was still lying unconscious.

Her small hand clenched into a fist. She vowed that she wouldn\'t let anyone who harmed her family got away no matter who that person was, but not with her current condition. She didn\'t want to harm her child just because of her emotion.

"Okay."

Nanglong Souka looked towards his best friend with a complicated expression. When he heard the news of the other party got wounded critically, he almost cannot believe himself. No matter how many times they have bantered around and hit the other party using their mouths, they would never hope for each other death.

The old man on the bed has pale complexion, and Nanglong Souka also knew that the other party no longer has a long time to live. He himself was still quite healthy, but he knew that his time was also almost up.

"Shameless old man," Nanglong Souka opened his mouth, "Don\'t die earlier than me, we still haven\'t settled the winner of our lifetime clash."

He really hoped that the other party still stayed healthy, so he could respond to him. However, all he got is the view of the doctor busy treating the other party.

\'If you died first, I would search for you in the underworld and drag you to have a clash of words with me again.\'
