Chapter 542 Nervousness
Nan Hua was calm as she simply told them about the other generals. From Shi Long Kingdom alone, there were a total of six generals coming, more than half of the number of generals in Fei Yang Kingdom. From Fan Yi Kingdom, there were a total of three generals while from Qi Xi Kingdom, only one general come.
"Qi Xi Kingdom only have the smallest territory and they still come?" Feng Ao Si was astounded.
"I didn't expect that they're actually allowing him to participate with only one general." Feng Ao Kuai focused on another matter. In his opinion, the other kingdoms shouldn't be that generous, especially when Shi Long Kingdom expended the most energy.
Nan Hua looked at Feng Ao Kuai. "Second Young Master Feng, Emperor Qi Kan Tian is reported to be present."
"Empe…mph!?"
At that moment, Feng Ao Si's mouth was blocked by Nan Luo almost immediately. He was also surprised, but if that word was to be screamed by Feng Ao Si, they might be in for the crime of discussing people of higher status. It was a crime that might put them on their death.
The rules were incredibly strict.
"Are your source reliable?"
Nan Hua nodded. "Of course."
And Nan Hua knew that Emperor Qi Kan Tian was really present because it was the exact same thing as the original story. In order for him to show that he was supporting this assault, he chose to appear personally and watched from a distance. Even though he actually didn't do much, his presence alone had convinced the others.
He was a daring and ruthless person, one who would even gamble with his own life to be able to achieve his goal. What was coming here meant for him?
He had even sneaked into Fei Yang Kingdom and took strolls there previously.
But Nan Hua had no intention of ratting her senior brother. She would only tell them that he was present to these three people in front of her. The others would know when it was time for the battle tomorrow either way.
"I see… the battle wouldn't be easy…"
They ended up discussing for a bit more before resting. At this moment, Nan Luo was feeling exceptionally restless because he knew that the battle tomorrow would be a big event. Who would have thought that so many powerful and influential people would appear in this place?
They were all prepared to fight a battle against Fei Yang Kingdom.
In the previous battle that had important people leading, Nan Luo was nothing more than a mere small ant that was not worth mentioning. He didn't even participate and lurked at the back, waiting and watching the battle that was ongoing. If not for the two sneaking commanders, he would never have experienced the real battlefield.
But now…
So many generals and commanders appeared.
It would be a lie to say that he was not nervous. There hadn't been any other event in history where so many important people gathered, right? On the second thought, there has been other cases in the past.
One of them was the destruction of Qi Xi Kingdom that reduced its state until this point.
In the past, Qi Xi Kingdom was one of the strongest and the largest. It was close to rivalling Shi Long Kingdom in terms of power and influence. But they tried to expand even further, which caused the other kingdoms to respond angrily. The others, including Fei Yang Kingdom, banded together to crush Qi Xi Kingdom.
In the end, the battle ended leaving Qi Xi Kingdom with extremely small territory.
It was so small that there were not many people who thought of heading there anymore and only some skirmish with the two neighboring kingdom, Fan Yi Kingdom and Wei Da Kingdom occurred from time to time.
Now, Fei Yang Kingdom was the target.
If they lose the battle, their ending might be worse than Qi Xi Kingdom, which at the very least, still existed. They might not even be able to stay alive and left with not even an ounce of hope to restore their glory at all.
'I can't sleep.'
Nan Luo pushed the blanket aside and sat up. His back was filled with sweat even though he did nothing but resting on his bed. He was tired, yet he didn't want others to know that the young commander Nan couldn't sleep. After all, he was also representing his family behind his back.
He silently sneaked to the back and looked at the mountain in front of him. It was dark and the wind was slightly chilly. Turning around, he could see the valley before him.
Tomorrow, the place would be filled with corpses and blood.
It was a terrifying thought.
In his entire life, this was the first time he had seen so many soldiers gathered in one place. There were hundred thousand people who were staying in this place and seemed to be ready for the brutal battle tomorrow.
Yet, they were all resting peacefully.
Even though it might be their last time to live in this world, most of them were resting deeply.
"Young Master."
Nan Luo glanced to the side and saw Nan Hua walked out. He smiled bitterly. He was really not used with Nan Hua calling him so politely like that. Moreover, the two of them were actually twins.
"Please don't be so polite to me… I'm really not used to it."
If it was others, he wouldn't mind. But the person in question was his younger twin sister whom he doted very much. He wished that she could just stay in the Capital City and stayed away from this brutal place, yet she came.
No one told her, but she came directly.
"Nan Luo," Nan Hua replied obediently.
Nan Luo nodded. "I can't sleep."
"Are you nervous?"
Nervous?
"You can say so." Nan Luo looked into the distance towards the sea of tents in front of him. "Thinking how many people will be able to go through this tomorrow, I'm feeling heavy."
