"Hua'er, do you need help? She might be up for something bad." Nan Luo furrowed his eyebrows. The way Shangguan Die kept on targeting Nan Hua didn't seem to be normal in his opinion.
They had never offended Shangguan Family... oh wait, they did target Shangguan Yi, who was currently limping to the backyard. It was supposedly to be only a matter between Nan Luo and Shangguan Yi.
How did it end up related with Nan Hua?
Nan Hua shook her head. "Let's just watch."
They found a place to sit down and watched. Behind Nan Hua, Xiao Yun looked exceptionally nervous as she looked back and forth but stayed silent in the end. Her hand trembled from time to time as if she was afraid.
Nan Luo noticed it and shook his head. "Don't worry, we're far from them. Even if there's a sword heading this way, it would never reach Hua'er."
"Yes, Young Master."
In front of them, General Shangguan looked at the four... no five youth in front of him. He patted his sword. "You can decide for yourself how you want to go."
"Father, how about if we go in accordance to age?" Shangguan Xiao asked softly. In any case, he wanted to be the first one so that the others would be able to learn about his father's fighting skill first. This was supposedly to be only a small test.
General Shangguan arched his eyebrows. "Xiao, you're the second oldest."
"Ah..."
Shangguan Xiao turned to look at Chi Song Lian. "We're around the same age, but if I'm not wrong, I'm still a few days older."
Chi Song Lian nodded. "That's indeed true, Second Young Commander Shangguan."
The two of them were both 18 years old this year. Actually, the two of them didn't really knew each other birthday but was it really important?
General Shangguan snorted. He knew his son's intention so he nodded. "Come here."
"Yes, Father."
General Shangguan snorted and turned around. "You may fight each other until Father returned from his rest."
"Yes, General Shangguan."
Thump!
The moment General Shangguan disappeared to the back, Feng Ao Si was unable to stay standing up and plopped to the ground. His entire body was hurting due to the two blows.
At the same time, he began to doubt his life.
He had lasted for quite some time when he sparred against his father. But looking at the way things were going with General Shangguan, he felt that his father must have hold back a lot. If his father didn't hold back, how was it possible for him to survive this long?
Just two blows.
And they were all already defeated soundly.
"General Shangguan inherited Grandfather's strength." Shangguan Xiao looked at the other three and smiled bitterly. "Please pardon my father's action."
"It's nothing much." Long Qian Xing chuckled. Even though he was also struggling to stay standing, he didn't want to show his weakness. He had heard that Great General Shangguan was known for his monstrous strength...
It seemed that the rumor was true.
Passing a look at Shangguan Yi, Long Qian Xing wondered whether the Shangguan Family's gene was wasted in this useless man. Even though Shangguan Yi has quite the strength, he was also very bad at executing martial arts.
Chi Song Lian looked at Shangguan Xiao and cupped his fist. "Many thanks for Second Young Master Shangguan to help us."
Shangguan Xiao was also the second young master of Shangguan Family, so it was not that weird to call him this way. In fact, these youths would rather call each other using their family status rather than military status because it was clearer.
"First Young Master Feng thanks Second Young Master Shangguan for your kindness," Feng Ao Si quickly added as he cupped his fist. However, he still didn't stand up because his legs were trembling so badly.
Shangguan Xiao smiled and cupped his fist back. "I didn't do much.. It's only fair that I go first since I know more."
