Bang!
With a kick, he knocked the young man easily. Even though Nan Luo was confused, it was not the time for him to dwell on this matter.
There were still many of them who were attacking.
"Gah!"
The sudden shout attracted them. Nan Luo narrowed his eyes when he noticed that the group of attackers actually brought poisons with them.
"Keep your distance! Don't get too close to them!"
"Yes!"
"Ugh!"
Some soldiers who were unfortunate enough to get poisoned, charged forward instead. They knew that their hope to survive was slim. If that was the case, they would want to bring down their attacker with them!
Mu Sheng Xi's expression was bad. He waved his hand. "Maintain the formation. Don't let them get close. Bring the shield out and push them away from us!"
"Yes!"
The situation was chaotic, but he could grasp the location of the soldiers. At least, most of them. They were all combined soldiers from several independent small armies. It would be hard for them to cooperate together without having any battle plan beforehand.
Thankfully, each commander seemed to know that they have different task.
"Charge!" Feng Ao Si yelled and quickly attacked those people. His soldiers were already used to see their commander charging forward and quickly followed suit with their weapons ready.
Clang! Clang! Thud!
Slash! Slash! Slash!
The number of their enemies dying spiked almost immediately after Feng Ao Si charged straight in. He was stunned because these soldiers were extremely weak. So weak that he could easily crush several of them at once.
He began to wonder whether these people were all soldiers.
"Brother! Don't get too close to them! They brought poison!" Feng Ao Kuai yelled to warn his stupid brother.
"Got it!"
Feng Ao Si signaled for Dai to give the soldiers order to regroup and move back. Not far from him, Dai expressionlessly signaled the soldiers. He truly wondered when Feng Ao Si would begin to remember their code mark.
He's the commander for the Heaven sake!
Can't he be the one to remember the code?
Swish!
Moving between the soldiers, Nan Hua entered into the forest in front of them. She had noticed how weak they were and the poisons they brought. Those were nothing for her, but what she wanted to know the most was how deep these people had been poisoned.
Knocking the first person to appear in front of her, Nan Hua then crouched down to check the pulses.
'It's weak and… there's no hope.'
It has been a few months, but these youngsters were already poisoned beyond repair. Nan Hua even noticed that many of their organs have already started failing.
Thus, they ended up weaker than what they were supposed to be.
With their organs not function the way they should be, how could it be possible for them to be stronger instead?
"There's someone…."
Thud!
Nan Hua knocked the group of children in front of her and checked on them one by one. She didn't know how different would they be from one another, but she could at least try to check.
"Nan! The one who attacked me before is from the academy! He's…." Nan Luo stopped his words when he saw the youngsters who were knocked in front of Nan Hua. All of the words he wanted to say were swallowed.
At first, he thought that it was only one.
But when he saw the youngsters in front of Nan Hua, Nan Luo realized how wrong he is. It was not just one youth who came from the academy where he used to study. All of them were his former classmates.
"They're all from the nobility children." Nan Luo looked at the children in front of them and saw Nan Hua took out her knife. "Are you going to kill them?"
If it was a stranger, he would not feel anything.
He had been taught ever since he was young to kill his enemies and not let even a single one escape. Because once he let them escape, there was a chance that he might endanger himself in the future.
But when his opponents turned out to be his former classmates… Nan Luo couldn't bring himself to be that hard hearted right away.
What if they were forced?
What if they simply had no other choice?
"The poison had spread. Even if I don't do anything, they'll die within an incense stick of time." Nan Hua looked at Nan Luo. "I'm not capable enough to save them when their poisons had spread and entered deep into their organs."
She's not a Heavenly Doctor who was capable of bringing people from the gates of hell.
The medical knowledge that Nan Hua had was only enough for her to become a good doctor. She might be even better than many other doctors in this era and had more knowledge than many of them.
However, she was not capable to save a person who was already on the verge of death.
There was no method she had that could save them.
"I see."
Nan Luo was silent.
He didn't bother Nan Hua anymore as she killed the youngsters in front of her. At this time, Nan Luo also calmed his heart down.
From the moment they all took their weapon against them, they were his enemies. He shouldn't be that soft hearted just because he used to know them. Besides, they were not even that close.
"What happened to them?" Nan Luo asked.
"They're given drugs and wouldn't be able to bear to live without it. But at the same time, the drugs are slowly destroying their inner bodies." Nan Hua had known these far too well. The one who gave the drugs didn't only want to make use of these youth.
He or she also wanted to completely destroy them so that they would never have any way out.
"That's the last one." Nan Luo saw Nan Hua checked the last one.
As Nan Hua was about to raise her sword again, a yell came from behind.
"Wait!"
