Chapter 1195

(Unedited)

…

General Fang Huyuen is one of the 5th fortress generals who are in charge of extreme cases in the military. Ever since the incident where an excellent young soldier was actually being chased by the military happened, he was sent to this fortress to investigate the situation.

And his investigation leads him to come to the Silver Glade Merchant Company.

He has found clues that lead him to suspect that the merchant group is actually hunting that young man for something else. And his suspicion became concrete when the Mecha appears.

He suspected that these merchants are targeting that young soldier because of this talent. They wanted to capture and monopolize him for their own selfish benefits. This is true especially when the merchant group is under the 6th prince's influence.

The 6th prince is still young and very ambitious. But his strength is also top-notch making him very admirable and a bit mysterious.

General Fang Huyuen has already gotten a lot of information about the young soldier named Xin Ja. And he is very amazed at the prowess of the young soldier.

The mysterious sleeping mist-covered town which was recovered by the 5th fortress is one of his military achievements. The military did not remove the mist. Instead, they utilize it as a defensive weapon for the protection of that border town.

With the town being protected by the sleeping mist, it could now be considered as a stronghold of the Jimal kingdom at the border.

However, until now, the array masters are still having a hard time deducing how the array was formed and its location. Plus the alchemist masters could not determine the composition of the mist without knocking themselves over.

He knew that it would take years before they could finally figure out things in that town. But still, it is already a great contribution to the military.

And then there was the secret information about the assassination of the leaders of the enemy soldiers.

Now, that is something that is not known to anyone except for the top brass of the secret forces in the military.

And according to the reports, they all found a metallic object inside the skulls of those military leaders.

And that same metal is currently inside his pocket.

The trip he has in the 5th fortress town has already borne results, so he did not want to stay anymore and just wanted to leave this place.

He has a conjecture that the boy is actually within the 5th fortress… if not in the town itself. But of course, he has to do more investigating if he truly wanted to find the boy.

"General Fang… This incident, should we…?" a soldier behind General Fang asked while not continuing his words.

"No… This is their problem…" General Fang said as he leads the group out of the manor.

"They have gotten what they deserve… Well, I guess this would scare that 6th prince from coming to this place… Hehe… What a smart brat. If he could also follow his uncle… then that would for the greater good of our kingdom…" General Fang thought as a wide smile crept on his face.

Meanwhile, Xin Ja has already returned to the Zhang mansion and felt a bit helpless as he lays in bed.

The weapon was truly more powerful than he expected… in fact, too powerful.

He was blown by the recoil of the weapon and the muzzle of the weapon actually broke apart and shattered.

Luckily for him, he was not hit by the debris if he was then he would surely suffer grievous wounds and would not be able to return on time.

"Sigh… I truly need stronger material to be able to create the perfect weapon to increase and balance my strength against my enemies…" he thought while thinking of the broken Ki buster rifle in his ring.

He shook his head and closes his eyes as he slept through the night. He did not feel tense anymore as he feel at ease. Now that there would be no one threatening him as he thinks that his message should be clear now.

Those who crossed him would die even if they are more powerful than him.

But of course, that is in the premise that he is in the shadow and his enemy is in the light.

…

The next day…

Xin Ja woke up and was greeted by Medical master Xiang who has more questions just like the previous day. Xin Ja patiently answered his queries and the two began to proceed with their lesson.

However, that afternoon, there was an unexpected guest that came to the manor.

When Xin Ja saw that person, his expression changed.

This is because, that person is his battalion commander, Commander Zhang Baguan.

He and Medical master Xiang has just finished the lesson and Xin Ja just walks out of the room when he saw the figure of Zhang Baguan entering the main courtyard.

When Xin Ja saw that man's figure he could not help but tense up.

Commander Zhang or General Zhang is a very powerful man. He is already at the 15th level, and Xin Ja knew that the guy is not that simple.

He could not deal with Zhang Baguan as he dealt with that Elder Lin. That Elder Lin is a merchant while General Zhang is a soldier.

His senses are sharper, and he is more cautious. He did not know if there are tons of talismans in his body, who knows, right?

The guy behind him also saw what Xin Ja saw and his expression changed.

"That shameless bastard is here again…" Medical Master Xiang said with an angry expression.

He is the reason why General Zhang died in the battle.

The two are cousins, but that shameless bastard save himself and left General Zhang to fend off the enemy by himself.

"Plus,… the poisoning… I suspect that he is the source of it…" Medical Master Xiang said with his knuckles clenched.

"For many weeks we were suffered on the road and he did not even care about us… Now that we are here, is he pretending that everything is fine? Shameless… truly shameless…" the old man muttered in anger.

"Master Xiang… I will now go back to my quarters, call me if there is anything…" Xin Ja said as he turn around and left.

Right at this moment… inside the main hall of the Zhang manor…

Zhang Baguan is looking at Madam Zhang who has already recovered her complexion and her ragged appearance is already gone.

Just like her little daughter, Madam Zhang is a beauty. Although she is in her 40's she looks a bit young for her age, and her skin looks soft and supple.

The man before her could not help but gaze at her for a long time.

"General Zhang… You have come for a visit... Is there anything I can help you with?" she asked in a cold tone as she feel uncomfortable being gazed at by the man.

Deep in her heart, she is actually burning in rage upon seeing this guy in front of her. He is the cause of her husband's death. No matter what the report says, she knew that it was his own doing. And the cause of that is because of her.

That is why… she blames herself for a time. If not for her, he would not have been lost. He who has loved, supported, and pampered her, has died because of her.

And the guy before her arranges everything because of his own lust for her.

She knew that he has designs for her, but could not make his move because of her background.

She is Liu Qinxin from the capital kingdom. She belongs to the influential Lee family of the top ten families of the capital of the kingdom.

With her family background, she could have married anyone she likes. But she fell in love with her husband the late General Zhang.

Although they did not have any children for a long time, her husband stayed loyal to her. And that is until in her late 30's that they were blessed with a child.

And because of her background that she knew that this guy would not do anything to her unless he gets the ire of the Lee clan and could be wiped out.

Sensing the cold expression of the woman he fancied for a long time, General Zhang Baguan showed a faint smile on his face.

He is already in his 50's but his desire for her did not diminish in time. He still wanted her, if he could get her, he would make her his official wife would turn his current main wife as his second wife.

But he dare not say this out loud because he plans to slowly win her. Since his cousin is already gone, then it would only be a matter of time before he could win her heart. He just needed to be patient.

"That… I'm just worried about you and Xi'er. I heard that Xi'er suffered a lot. It is nice that she is already cured." He said.

In fact, that is the second reason why he is here… to find who cured the little girl.
