Supreme Emperor of Mist

Chapter 215: You! Surname Qin!

Five hundred soldiers per unit. Six units in total.

This was all Qin Lan is capable of amassing right not to participate in this final battle. Based on how Peng Yan's forces distributed themselves, it's likely that Qin Fan would be the one to receive the brunt attack from the Bronze Dragon Unit once more.

But this time, they're prepared.

Going strong from the start, Qin Fan led the straight into the battlefield with the assistance of Running Amulet. He believes that it would be best if his unit managed to cut their distance quickly before the Bronze Dragon Unit managed to pull their tricks again.

And his bet was half successful.

The remaining half was considered a risky move because the current Qin Fan and the remnants of Crimson Mist Army were fighting against close to 800 soldiers on their own.

Furthermore, their opponent wasn't some random crack soldiers gathered from all over the Kuanglei Province but experienced soldiers that trained properly under the banner of Peng Likun.

Although the number of veterans inside this team is considered lesser than the Beheading Army and Kuanglei Border Army, their strength is more or less the same.

"To battle! Engage!" Qin Fan pushes his Spiritual Qi to the limit and fought against two Bronze Dragon Unit's officers at once. A sword that half the length of a polearm was used to defend against two weapons longer than its own.

**Dang!**

The first exchange threw the three of them back to where they came from. One of the peak second-level Bone experts immediately joined the battle as he received Qin Fan before he smashed onto the ground due to the blast.

"Are you alright, expert Qin?" the Bone expert asked Qin Fan without bothering about himself. His internal organ was on fire, and blood is started to clot after he forcefully receives Qin Lan.

"Please take a Flesh Mending Pill before it's too late. Thank you for your effort. I'll make sure to not disappoint what you have done for me." said Qin Fan as he returned to the battlefield.

"Bah! Urgh!" the expert coughed a few mouthfuls of blood after Qin Fan left. If it gets more serious, perhaps even his internal organs would be coughed out by him.

"The remnant power from three experts are indeed... Re... Markable..." the expert fainted on the ground before he managed to put the pill into his mouth.

...

...

"Commander Shan, Commander Huang, and Captain Wang, I wish you three good luck. Let us block the main army from continuing to move forward." Expert Yi, Xie, and Shan cupped their fists at the other three before leading their unit into the battlefield.

"Likewise! Good luck to you three!" they returned the warming gesture. Leading five hundred men with them, the left and right vanguard also followed the same momentum as Qin Fan. They went ahead to battle against the two separated units from the Kuanglei Province Border Army.

It was a one-sided battle against a thousand soldiers with five hundred men.

But this is what they had to do, to preserve the forces of three young princes as they march forward to fight against a deadlier opponent that once slaughtered all their experts.

Even with only 700 soldiers remaining in their rank, the Beheading Army is still a considerable powerful force. And just like Qin Lan's tactic, Peng Yan is also nowhere to be found. 

Her two loyal adjutants were also dispatched to lead the two separated units of the Kuanglei Province Border Army.

...

"What will happen to the battle, in your opinion?" Sun Wu Jian's guardian asked as he witnesses their battle from above. Using the advantages of a bird-eye view on the battlefield, it turned out to be a blossoming lotus right now.

And not far from the battlefield is two smaller groups with less than a hundred soldiers with a different mission. Based on the distance between them, they're expected to stumble across one another not long after the three princes and the Beheading Army engaged in a heated battle.

...

"Raise your weapon and prepare for battle!" Sun Ding Tian was the one to order as he was the eldest amongst the three princes. Based on the number of orders alone, he is indeed qualified to be the first to speak.

Furthermore, there was a significant change in his attitude after he was showered with a repeating defeat. And as all men do, if one still doesn't learn from his failure, then he's nothing more than a piece of trash.

As a prince of this Country of Wu, Sun Ding Tian still has some of his pride left.

Looking at their second brother curiously, the seventh prince and ninth prince smiled.

'To think that there's a day we can see second brother's serious face for once. If he was like this from the start, to what extent is his success right now?' the two princes thought.

It was common for them to think this way because the first and second princes were born from the same mother, the current Queen of Wu. As the two eldest that came from the same empress with the most power in the royal court, the support they had in their back was undoubtedly better than the other princes.

But this was also their downfall.

Or precisely, Sun Ding Tian's downfall.

Because his royal mother's attention is given more to the smarter and older brother, he was neglected by the empress. This is what led him throughout until today.

Still, there were people that loyal to Sun Ding Tian. Such as his adjutant and the few elite soldiers who protected him when the siege crossbow struck where he stands.

"Chen Long! Wu Jian!" Sun Ding Tian suddenly turned his attention to his two younger siblings. Like there's a mutual understanding between brothers, they immediately understand what was in their second brother's mind.

"Soldiers of Wu! Follow me!" the two princes moved forward with their elites and engaged against the Beheading Army with the momentum they've built up throughout the way.

And with this, all units were engaged in a battle.

...

...

...

"Peng Yan! Stop right there!" Qin Lan said as his troops overlook Peng Yan's squadron located below the elevated slope. It seems he's already expected that she'll be using this way to come to the back of his army.

"You... You..." a jolt of electrical current made Peng Yan felt numb in her head as she looked at Qin Lan's face properly. Her heart palpitates faster without herself knowing why does this happen to her.

'Why do seeing him made my heart race so much? My left breast felt slightly painful as well the moment I saw him... Did he... Took advantages of me before?' Peng Yan started to make random guesses as her body reacted differently while looking at Qin Lan.

"Are you sure you want to go against me? There will be no way back after this..." Qin Lan said.

"I'll let you choose... Come to my side, and I'll be responsible for you. Everything about this country fighting, argument, and differences, let's leave it aside as we went through our life as a married couple." Qin Lan said.

His word sounded like a proposal, but what he'll say next wasn't the same as the first.

"But if you choose to fight against me, then don't blame me to forcefully bring you back with me. By that time, I won't be as gentle as I am right now." Qin Lan added.

'Huh?' the soldiers from both side, including Lu Qing Yun, Lu Yi, and Huo Zunjie is puzzled by Qin Lan's word.

'Are there any differences between the two options?' they asked themselves. Some even try to comprehend the meaning behind Qin Lan's words.

"Big brother, can you understand what the general is trying to say?" a soldier asked an older colleague nodding his head beside him. Since he's married, he should be somewhat more experienced.

"Stupid virgin. Listen properly here..."

"What the general means is, either you want it or not, you'll follow me back home. I'll be responsible and provides for you. And you'll become my woman, willingly or forcefully."

"Get it? I think only our general is qualified to speak like this to the woman he wants." the married soldier speaks loudly. Although there were some words omitted by himself without asking for Qin Lan's permission, it was deciphered accurately.

"You... You!!!" Peng Yan pointed her finger at Qin Lan after listening to what the married soldier said. At first, she was somewhat blushed and puzzled by Qin Lan's words, but listening to the soldier's explanation gives her an entirely new understanding of what Qin Lan meant.

Added with the palpitating heart and slight pain on her left breast, she came out with a conclusion that nobody could have guessed. Since that misunderstanding is only known by Qin Lan and herself.

At that time, there was nobody around them.

Even if the soldier that witnessed what happened that time managed to reappear right here to explain it all over again, it won't be helpful to solve the misunderstanding between them.

Peng Yan unhooks the metal armor protecting her chest and lower body as soon as she got her conclusion. Pointing her finger at Qin Lan, she started to speak.

"You! Surname Qin, correct?" Peng Yan said. The way she started her word was unexpected.

"I don't know what happened between us, but I'm sure it was not something beautiful based on the traumatizing pain I have on my left breast! From the way you talk, I'm sure you're one of the perverts that took advantage of me before!"

"How dare you want me to surrender and follow you back to your abode to become your woman?" Peng Yan's words completely turned the soldier's world upside down.

"WHAT!!!" but the one that was disturbed the most was Lu Qing Yun.

"Peng Yan! I'm going to kill you!" she yelled.
