Long Qian Xing had inquired and knew that Adjutant Nan didn\'t always follow Nan Luo. There were times when Adjutant Nan just disappeared without anyone knowing where \'he\' went. And since Nan Luo used to be nothing more than a small army, no one really cared about it.

But as Nan Luo was growing, the existence named Adjutant Nan was starting to attract more and more attention.

It was not hard for him to know that Adjutant Nan was more like an informal member in Nan Luo\'s army. This made Long Qian Xing understand that Nan Hua had no intention to stay beside her twin brother in the military for a long period of time.

There will be time when she finally left.

Nan Hua looked at Long Qian Xing and blinked her eyes. If she had to say the truth, she was not planning on following Nan Luo again after she had checked that trap room. She wanted to know more about the traps that were used commonly in this era.

And the best chance for her to sneak in was when Long Qian Xing was also inside. Well, she could pick other time, but she had to figure out the guards\' schedule and so on if she didn\'t want to get found out.

That would take a considerably long time.

After she was done, Nan Hua was planning on making the blueprints for these traps so that some can be implemented in Xia Mountains.

The future people who wanted to pass by Xia Mountains might vomit blood if they knew that the traps in Xia Mountains were going to be added. The last time some people trespassed there, they had already suffered greatly because of the traps there.

And then…

*cough*

Looking at Long Qian Xing, Nan Hua then answered, "I\'ll come, Young Commander Long."

"I hope we can work together, Adjutant Nan." Long Qian Xing smiled warmly. He couldn\'t see her appearance below that silver mask, but her clear black obsidian eyes told him that it was indeed Nan Hua.

Nan Hua cupped her fist in accordance to etiquette and then walked away.

Long Qian Xing stayed still in his place, watching the young woman for a moment before turning around to start his work. Now that Nan Hua was almost 17 years old, would she be more beautiful?

Recalling Nan Hua\'s appearance when he saw her in that temple… Long Qian Xing then touched his face.

He should be also quite handsome, right?

For some reason, Long Qian Xing started to lose confidence in his own appearance when he recalled Nan Hua\'s fairy like appearance. He took a few seconds to stabilize his mind and convinced himself that he was also very handsome and look good even with Nan Hua beside him.

While Long Qian Xing also headed over to his army, Nan Hua found Nan Luo and saw that Xiao Yan and Qiu Xian had already started to prepare the soldiers. The new adjutant, Hou Ming, was also trying his best to arrange the soldiers under him.

Seeing these people under Nan Luo, Nan Hua\'s eyes flickered.

Her twin brother was indeed growing so fast when she was not paying attention.

"Nan," Nan Luo called out in surprise. "Are you going to follow me?"

"Yes." Nan Hua glanced at Nan Luo. "Do you not want me to come?"

If Nan Luo had to say the truth, he naturally wanted Nan Hua to come. But when he thought about how Long Qian Xing already knew the truth….

He didn\'t want Nan Hua to come and be pestered with Long Qian Xing.

"If only he didn\'t know…"

"It\'s impossible for me to stay together with you forever," Nan Hua was calmer when she talked about it. "And Grandfather will be happy if he heard that you start to take interest in a young lady."

Nan Luo\'s face turned red when he heard what Nan Hua said. He never said that he was truly interested, alright? Anyway, he was only 16 years old right now, so there was no hurry for him to get married yet.

At his current age, he could only get engaged first anyway.

"Nan…" Nan Luo looked at Nan Hua helplessly.

Nan Hua didn\'t pay attention to Nan Luo and instead started to think about whether Nan Luo was truly interested in that young miss from Wei Family or not. Perhaps she should just figure out a way to arrange for them to meet with each other again in the future.

That way, Nan Luo would be able to confirm his feelings.

After all, in this era, it was common for men and women to get married from the moment they reached of age.

She was just a bit of an exception because she wanted to participate in the war….

*cough*

The preparation didn\'t take a long time and the three armies finally met at Yi City\'s North gate. The ground was somewhat muddy thanks to the \'artificial flood\' that Long Qian Xing created back then. However, it was not impossible for them to depart.

"You\'re fast enough." Long Qian Xing nodded. "Let\'s go."

"Yes!"

The soldiers began to move.

There were more than 10,000 soldiers going together. Even though their soldiers had reduced in number because some died during the battle, there were still more than 10,000 soldiers in total.

Nan Hua also noticed that Long Qian Xing brought an adjutant with him and also his guard. That adjutant was not the one who usually came with him, so Nan Hua guessed that Long Qian Xing put his previous adjutant in Yi City.

\'Come to think about it, how many adjutants that Long Qian Xing had?\'

Looking at it closely, Nan Hua knew that Long Qian Xing had several adjutants and many of them had started to grow independent from him. They still followed him occasionally but many times, they would go on their own.

That way, not many people knew that Long Qian Xing\'s soldiers were actually a lot.

Nan Hua averted her gaze.

She didn\'t need to know more than this.
