'Sound of battle?'
Nan Hua could still faintly hear the sound of battle from a distance. She knew that there were still a lot of people in Lin Family, but who would fight against them in this forest?
Standing up, Nan Hua peeked out and saw several people were fighting.
Clang! Slash!
As they got closer, Nan Hua recognized them.
Slash!
"The intruder should be close..." Long Qian Xing looked at the side and as if guided, he saw Nan Hua peeking out of the tree. While Nan Hua was dressing as a boy, she only changed her appearance slightly to make it more similar to Lin Hao but it was still mostly similar to herself.
There was no way Long Qian Xing would not recognize his little fiancée.
Long Qian Xing strode forward without hesitation and stopped in front of Nan Hua. "You...."
"Brother Long," Nan Hua called out softly. Due to the poison, her voice sounded softer and weaker. And with her not purposely forcing herself to be stronger, it was inevitable that she would sound coquettish.
With her skills, it was easy for her to hide behind the tree, not allowing anyone to see her in the slightest bit. Even when she was poisoned and on the verge of death, she would never allow anyone to find her.
Because when she was weak, those so called comrade in her past life would only try to kill her and take advantage of her.
Thus, Nan Hua never allowed herself to show her weak self.
But at this moment, she didn't know why she didn't want to step back and hide herself. She just stared at Long Qian Xing, letting him find her and come close.
Long Qian Xing took a deep breath and strode forward. He immediately realized that Nan Hua was not herself. She was sweating so badly and looked far weaker than her usual self. "I'll bring you away from here."
"Mhm."
With Nan Hua's confirmation, Long Qian Xing carried Nan Hua in bridal style while Nan Hua hooked her hand on Long Qian Xing's neck. At this point of time, she didn't really care about what Long Qian Xing's soldiers would think.
"I'll call a doctor for you, Hua'er."
"I already deal with it," Nan Hua responded softly. She blinked her eyes, trying to stay focused. "I just need to rest and there might be some fever later."
Long Qian Xing frowned when he heard Nan Hua's words. Recalling Nan Hua's identity as Traveling Doctor Liu's disciples, he guessed that she might have learned how to deal with poison from that doctor in the past.
However, he felt distressed when he thought that Nan Hua was poisoned.
Originally, he didn't plan to do anything to Lin Family in consideration that they were only helpers of Zhang Xu Kingdom. He only wanted to block them from assisting Zhang Xu Kingdom in the war.
But now, he felt that he should change the plan.
Swish!
Jumping on the horse skillfully, Long Qian Xing held Nan Hua carefully. Even though he only carried her with one hand for some time, Nan Hua's own strength was enough to prop her body.
She looked at the horse and felt that it was a good horse.
"Sleep. I won't let anything happen to you," Long Qian Xing said in a low voice.
Nan Hua blinked her eyes, staring at Long Qian Xing in front of her.
Her mind was in a mess and at this time, Nan Hua didn't know what she was supposed to do anymore. She felt that there was part inside her mind that she could not understand. Feelings that she used to bury and avoided was emerging once more.
She knew that she had to face it sooner or later.
But at this moment, she felt so dizzy and heavy. It was hard for her to even think clearly.
Slowly, Nan Hua hummed and closed her eyes.
"Don't worry, I won't let anyone hurt you," Long Qian Xing coaxed in a low voice. His eyes were staring at the location of the Lin Family with a glint.
Drap! Drap! Drap!
In the midst of the chaos at other areas, Long Qian Xing brought Nan Hua away.
