Chapter 526 Familiar and Strange

"You all guard the main camp well, and don't let anyone discover that the commander is absent."

"Okay, miss!"

Yang Jinfan gave a few brief instructions, then plunged into the night, found a secluded grove of trees to hide in, and immediately summoned the little Qilin to follow Huai Gujun's scent.

In the blink of an eye, she found herself outside the Xiongnu army's camp, where the main tent was brightly lit.

Yang Jinfan concealed his presence and found the best corner to spy on the movements inside the main tent. Lan Pingxuan's stealth skills were first-rate. Even if the Xiongnu night patrols circled back and forth countless times, as long as she did not actively reveal her whereabouts, no one could find her.

Of course, this excludes Lan Ze, who personally taught her kung fu.

She suddenly realized that the mysterious general of Kunyu Kingdom was able to see through all of Jun Ge's moves and even predict them in advance. Could it be that he had some connection with Jun Ge in the past?
However, before learning martial arts, Jun Ge was plagued by a deadly poison. His master didn't even let him do heavy work. It was only after she removed the poison that he was able to learn martial arts. His improvement in martial arts and his guidance in military strategy after participating in the martial arts examination were due to Lan Ze and her guidance, as well as Jun Ge's own enlightenment.

Logically speaking, apart from Lan Ze, there shouldn't be anyone in this world who has any connection with Brother Jun in terms of martial arts.

Jun's military skills are mostly memories from his previous life...

Past life!

By the way, as Brother Jun mentioned before, he suspected that the mysterious general might also have come from that world, and that he should have a very close relationship with them. He might very well be one of his former brothers, and they were all disciples of General Yang!

Thinking of this, Yang Jinfan felt his blood boiling. It was simply unbelievable that they could meet fellow countrymen in this world, and that they were even on the opposite side of them!
Snapped!
The sound of the whip lashing back brought Yang Jinfan back to reality. Inside the tent, Huai Gujun was dressed in plain clothes, with several bloodstains seeping through his body. The blood had spread across his plain clothes, obscuring their previous whiteness, but his stubbornness remained undiminished.

"Ah! Father Khan, didn't you promise me you wouldn't hurt him anymore?!"

Her sweet voice was tinged with anger, and she spoke in somewhat broken Mandarin. She lunged forward, arching her neck to block Huai Gujun, and even tried to grab the thorny rattan whip in Helian Zhaoxin's hand with her bare hands.

Yang Jinfan clenched his fists slightly, his gaze fixed on Huai Gujun's face.

Huai Gujun seemed to sense something and also looked up into the void. The light outside flickered, and he was unsure where she might be hiding. He simply relied on his intuition to find the gaze that was falling on him.

Beneath his deep eyes was a shallow wound, and the pain from the whipping gave him a resolute yet tragic beauty. Taking advantage of a moment of tension between father and daughter, he raised a faint smile toward the tent entrance, signaling to those outside not to worry.

Yang Jinfan's heart clenched slightly, a dull ache rising within him, and he was also annoyed that the man was so out of touch with reality.

They were beaten so badly, yet they could still laugh!
No one noticed the unspoken understanding between the two. Helian Zhaoxin dodged his daughter's outstretched hand, threw the rattan whip to the ground, and looked helpless.

"Toya, how can you still not understand? He'd rather be poisoned than become your consort. Although I don't understand how he survived, he's the commander of the Northern Wind Kingdom. We finally managed to bring him here with great difficulty; he must die at such a good opportunity!" "Toya, listen to me. Once he's dead, the grasslands can conquer the Central Plains in one fell swoop. At that time, you can choose any warrior from the grasslands or any handsome young man from the Central Plains—whoever you want to be your consort!"

"I've heard that the Emperor of the Northern Wind Kingdom has a son who is extremely handsome, like a god. If we successfully enter the Central Plains, how about Father Khan takes him and makes him your consort? If you don't like the weak men of the Central Plains, that's fine too; he can be your male concubine. Then, choose your favorite warrior from among the warriors of our grasslands!"

"Father Khan!"

“I want him! I don’t believe there’s anyone more handsome than him in the Central Plains, let alone on our grasslands! He’s already been captured by us. Now there’s no commander in the Yanbei army. Once they find out their commander has been captured, they’ll naturally panic. Whether we kill him or not, we have a good opportunity to invade the Central Plains. Why can’t we spare his life?”

Helian Tuya frowned her delicate and beautiful eyebrows and stood firmly in front of Huai Gujun, refusing to budge an inch.

As long as she persists, her father will eventually agree to her request; he loves her the most!
Helian Zhaoxin really couldn't do anything about this daughter. He could only turn his head to look at Huai Gu Jun behind her and said coldly, "I will ask you one more time, do you agree to be Tuoya's consort?"

Huai Gujun raised a mocking smile, his sharply defined face covered in sweat, and he opened his cracked mouth, his tone as resolute as ever.

"Absolutely impossible!"

Enraged by him, Helian Zhaoxin turned around to pick up the rattan whip that had just been thrown away. Before Helian Tuoya could recover from the bitterness welling up in her heart, she blocked his way once again.

"Father Khan, please don't! Stop hitting him. Even if you beat him to death, it won't help. I've heard that people from the Central Plains respond better to force than to gentleness. The divine general of Kunyu Kingdom is also from the Central Plains. Why don't you let him try to persuade General Gu?"

"Very well, if even the divine general can't persuade him, then you must not stop him anymore. I will definitely kill him to prevent future troubles!"

Helian Zhaoxin angrily flung his sleeves and left. Before leaving, he glanced back at Huai Gujun's hateful eyes. He felt a shiver run down his spine, and his thoughts instantly returned to sixteen years ago. The bright young man who had called him brother probably had the same look in his eyes before he died!
Without lingering, he went out and sent someone to invite the divine general from the Kunyu Kingdom. This battle was not originally intended to last too long, but later, with the addition of the Kunyu Kingdom, who were willing to contribute money and manpower, they became his trusted allies. The recent series of victories were due to the divine general's command.

Before long, a figure wearing a crescent-white cloak entered the tent. Judging from his physique, he looked like a frail young man from a noble family. He was very young and did not seem like someone who had been through the trials of military life. However, his steps were steady and powerful, showing the demeanor of a soldier.

Yang Jinfan carefully examined the figure and felt that it was very fitting for the identity of a transmigrator. The schemes and temperament were inconsistent with the figure, and even the way he bowed to people seemed awkward.

Huai Gujun looked up and followed the direction of the person coming. The young master was dressed impeccably, and a moon-white cloak covered most of his face, only revealing the slightly upturned corners of his lips and the clear bone structure around his chin. He must also be handsome.

"You are the mysterious general of Kunyu Kingdom. What, in front of a defeated opponent like me, do you not intend to reveal your true identity?"

The man chuckled and gently lifted the hood of his cloak, revealing a handsome face as smooth and warm as jade. However, the vicissitudes and ruthlessness in his eyes did not quite match his appearance.

For some reason, Huai Gujun felt that the person in front of him was very familiar, even somewhat friendly, but after searching his memory thoroughly, he couldn't find any face of his comrade-in-arms from his previous life that matched up.

Good night~
