315 Future Dreamer
Looking at the mess in front of him, Ye Jiu clicked his tongue, but he didn't pursue Soujin any longer. With the wound that general suffered, there was no way he could fight tomorrow and without the general, there was no chance for the other party to win.
"After this battle is over, it's time for me to greet my dearest uncle," Ye Jiu smiled slightly.
On the side, his soldiers didn't dare to interrupt him as they cleaned up the mess. They tried to stay quiet as much as possible in hope for Ye Jiu didn't notice them. Although Ye Jiu would put a gentle and noble front, his soldiers knew very well how much of a demon he was.
He would not throw tantrum like the crown prince or personally tortured someone like his cousin. Just like the current emperor, he would deal with everything calmly, but if they did a mistake, they wouldn't even know what end their life.
Sometimes the soldiers were confused whether he was the emperor son or nephew. The way he did it was similar to the emperor, though he did it in a much more refined way compare to the emperor. Nevertheless, both of them were scary people who didn't seem like that at the front.
Ye Jiu walked to his horse and mounted it as he directed the soldiers to occupy the hill. Based on his memories, he would already lose by this point because of an ambush the other party prepared and the repeatable lost on his side due to many unexpected tactics. This time, he had changed a lot of things, hopefully, everything would end well.

Yan's side Headquarters
"Have you finished the investigation about Ye Jiu?" Yan asked.
Both Jun Hua and Soujin sent their people to investigate the matter about Ye Jiu in hope for finding the clues about him. Nevertheless, it took them a long of time to find out what happened in the past because Ye Jiu spent most of his life in the northwest border of Pan Kingdom.
Shu nodded his head as he bowed down, "The investigation is finished, but there is something strange on the report."
"What is it?" Yan got a bad feeling when he heard the word.
"Ever since young, Prince Ye Jiu was already an excellent child. However, ever since he reaches adult age, his action became really weird; it's as if he could know anything that happens before it happened."
Ming Hui frowned, "Know something before it happened? How is it possible?"
"Prince Ye Jiu said that he saw it in his dream, so he knew. Because of his excuse, people call him as the future dreamer."
"Future dreamer," Jun Hua murmured, "I think that nickname is really suitable for him."
"I don't think this is the time to praise him, Jun Hua," Ming Hui said with a wry smile.
"I know, just cannot help it," Jun Hua grinned. However, her face changed in the next moment, "I have to go back. If he truly knew the future, then he should know about the ambush."
If the report was true, there should be a possibility that Soujin would be ambushed back instead by Ye Jiu. Of course, such things were impossible, yet she didn't think that way because there were indeed some things unexplained in this world. The most concrete experiences she had was that cave before where they learned such terrifying technique and the cost for being the leader.
"Knowing the future is logically impossible, right?" Yan said with frown.
Jun Hua didn't listen to him as she sprinted to the horse and mounted it. The far distance that would take several minutes to walk were covered in mere seconds. Yan mouth was opened wide when he saw how fast Jun Hua move.
"Does having a feeling for someone enhance your ability that much?" he asked in bewilderment.
Ming Hui smiled wryly. That was the real ability of Jun Hua because she was the general and she already spent years fighting on the battlefield. Covering this short of distance was nothing for her. However, since not even Yan knew about it, Ming Hui doubted that Yan would be able to guess it.
"Maybe?" he grinned. Truthfully, it was not true since at most they just became more dedicated than usual. There was no way a person could undergo a transformation that easily.
Yan was looking at Ming Hui suspiciously when they heard the soldiers exclaiming. Looking to the front, they noticed that the people who were sent away with Soujin had returned. However, seeing their grim and panicked expression, the two of them stopped joking.
"Lou, what happened?" Jun Hua dashed with the horse to meet with them. Seeing that Lou was the one leading, she felt uneasy. Could it be that something happened to Soujin? If that was not the case, there were no way Lou would be the one leading the soldiers return.
The caring expression Jun Hua showed to them only made Lou felt worse. He failed his duty on protecting Soujin and let him experience the pain of being wounded heavily. Seeing the girl was truly worried, he moved aside to show her the wounded general.
Jun Hua gasped at the sight. The wounds on Soujin's body were not limited to mere scratch, but rather they were deep wounds. Although the soldiers already gave him the first aid, there were still many of the wound opened. Even in some of the places, the blood was still flowing.
"Lift him up to the horse, I will take him back to the tent," Jun Hua said.
Lou nodded his head and helped Soujin got on the horseback. Because Jun Hua was worried, she has already at the foot of the hill. Going up using horse would be much quicker and they too needed to tend their wound.
Pacing her horse, Jun Hua climbed the hill once again with Lou watched her from behind. Lou's feet tremble before he fell down on the ground.
"Commander Lou!"
"It's fine, take the others first," Lou waved his hand. This was ridiculous. For him to only have superficial wound while Soujin got the heavy wound, he was a failure as a subordinate.
Lou buried his head into his hand. He prayed from the bottom of his heart that Soujin would be fine. That reckless general, who still wanted to protect his subordinate and fought on the frontline despite being wounded, is his precious master.
