Chapter 564: The Strong And The Wild (4)

(Unedited)

…

Shin Jiao is atop a tree and is a bit confused as to why the enemy general decided to withdraw. But with that man and his guards go, he is able to see that the only threat that poses is the soldiers surrounding his six companions.

Hence he immediately moved and threw out multiple sharp wooden spikes that hit his targets accurately either on their necks, heads, or chest. With Shin Jiao's accuracy and with the help of the contact lenses on his eyes, he is able to properly calculate the trajectory of the sharp wooden projectile.

This quick result and the sudden falling of a large number of soldiers scared the rest as they suddenly escaped the area.

Shin Jiao's companions are also scared at this point as they thought that there is a ghost that seems to be attacking the soldiers.

"We should run back… if that ghost targets us, then we would die here and our souls would be devoured by that thing… Let's go!" shouted one of them.

Fatigue and weary from the heavy fighting, the six people push themselves to run towards their companions waiting a few distances from where they are.

Soon they can now see around twenty men and some horses underneath some trees.

"What happened? Where are the rest?" one of the soldiers who look like a veteran warrior asked.

From the look of this soldier, it is clear that he is one of the guards of the 3rd prince. And from his expression, he is worried about his two other companions. In fact, he didn't care about these people. The 3rd prince has commanded them to make sure that they got rid of the young doctor. Though they didn't know why the 3rd prince is against that young doctor or what grudge he has with him, they just wanted to fulfill their task and nothing more.

"We… we just escaped from the enemy ambush… the… these rest were dead." One of the six men said while panting heavily trying to catch his breath.

"What? How… how about the young doctor?" the veteran-looking warrior asked with a serious expression.

"We… we don't know… But… but if my guess is correct, then he… he might be…"

Before that person finished his words, they suddenly saw a cloud of thick black smoke rising high up in the air. Everyone saw the thick smoke and was a bit dumbfounded.

"You guys completed the task… this is awesome… this is awesome!" shouted the people around the six men with a confused look on their faces.

"You guys would become heroes… this is a great contribution to the army… Haha…"

"I hope that you guys won't forget about us…"

Everyone cheered upon seeing that pillar of smoke, then they soon discover that besides on there are actually five thick black smoke rising high up in the air. But before they can rejoice, one of them suddenly pointed at a direction.

"Look! Isn't that… Isn't that the young doctor?"

"Oh my… he survived… Haha… this young doctor's luck is really something else."

"Yeah, I heard that he is the only survivor of the previous battle, right… awesome…"

"That is one lucky guy…"

The soldiers suddenly discussed as they are happy to see the figure of Shin Jiao. However, one of them is showing not happiness but animosity in his eyes.

The 3rd prince's order was absolute, no matter what happened, this guy should die.

This is what the veteran-looking soldier is thinking. He looks at the people in the area and then analyses his probability of wiping everyone out. He needs to kill everyone in here to prevent any witnesses from appearing.

Hence he began to plan in his mind his next step.

Shin Jiao wore a sorry figure as he approaches his companions. He was greeted warmly by all of the people in the group.

Many said that he was a very lucky guy and that they truly admire his tenacity. However, out of all these people, he can feel that one of them is sending out killing intent towards him.

As a former soldier, and from what he has experienced so far in his life, he is already aware of these kinds of feelings and he is very sensitive towards it.

But he didn't show it unto his face and just acted like he didn't know.

…

Meanwhile, in the enemy camp…

Gao Fung has been captured by the enemy and is taken to a tent. He was then tied to a pole and is being guarded by two strong soldiers. They will use any means necessary to be able to pry the mouth of this person to learn of the secrets of the stronghold.

That way, it would become easier for their forces to conquer it.

Not long later, a golden armored man enters the tent. Upon seeing the sorry figure of Gao Fung, he showed a smirk on his face.

"Haha… it seems that this is my lucky day. I have been itching to torture someone for a very long time. And now you have presented yourself to me. Haha… What a treat… Thank you." The man said with a loud chuckle.

"General Gong Yang… do you want us to bring the instruments?" a soldier at the side asked with an evil grin.

"Haha… Of course… I can't wait to start."

Meanwhile, Gao Fung who is gagged and is trying to break free from being bound on a large pole began to moan as if trying to say something.

However, this only made the man called General Gong Yang smirked. No matter how hard this man would struggle he would torture him. He wanted to vent his long frustration and the itch in his hands to this man. Even if he spills out the truth, he would torture him to death.

Upon thinking up to this point General Gong Yang felt his whole body shivers in excitement. He could not wait to hear the painful moaning and the sound of a whip cracking in the air. Plus the agonizing and painful scream of his enemy is like music to his ears. And this is making him aroused.

While he was in his stupor a loud shout suddenly rang out towards the whole camp.

"Fire! Fire! The catapults are on fire!" shouted a soldier as he rushed towards the camp.

With this shout, everyone was alarmed and immediately rushes out of their tents. They can now see a rising black smoke in the air.

Everyone immediately worked together and ran towards the nearby water hole. Some even gathered the dirt on the ground as they quickly ran towards the catapult's location.

As they are only a few kilometers away from the main army the smoke was also seen by them.

When the soldiers arrive in the location where the catapults are being assembled, they saw a lot of bodies on the ground.

And soon they found that all of their engineers and scholars who are assigned to assemble the catapults have been slain. Even the many soldiers guarding them were all killed. This made everyone dumbfounded.

But then upon seeing the rising smoke, they still tried to put off the fire but it was all too late.

When General Gong Yang saw the catapult burning, he was really angered. He began to throw things to the ground and immediately entered the tent. In his anger, he delivered a vicious kick at Gao Fung's gut making the later almost faint in pain.

Gao Fung also found himself hard to breathe as his stomach was hit.

He now regretted his decision and plan on how he can get rid of the young doctor. If only he followed the advice of the two guards of the prince to just silently kill the young doctor, this would not have happened.

But his pride didn't allow him to follow their decision. As the person in charge, the two have no choice but to follow him. And now his heart is full of regret and resentment towards the young doctor. If only he didn't make that mistake… or was it a mistake?

Then suddenly, Gao Fung recalls the reaction of the young doctor when he fell down.

Gao Fung clearly saw the crafty look on that young doctor's eyes. And then his mind can now recall the smirk on his young face as he fell while yelling. He now knew that he has fallen in his traps and he was the fool.

Gao Fung clenches his fist as his heart is filled with remorse and the desire for revenge. He will kill that young doctor once he came back and no one, no one can stop him.

However, his sinister plans suddenly came back to reality upon hearing the sharp crack of a whip with sharp-pointed metals at the end.

When he saw the whip, his body immediately shook in fear. He even lost his ability to control his bladder as a stream of foul-smelling liquid gush out and created a pool under him.

"Holy shit! Did you just wet yourself? We haven't started yet…" General Gong Yang seems to have forgotten what happened outside and is now fully concentrated in torturing this soldier.

A happy grin appears on his face upon seeing the fear in the soldier's eyes. This is what he wanted to see, this is like a euphoric drug for him, for him torturing a person is better than… sex.

…

Meanwhile, Shin Jiao and his group are already returning to the stronghold via the secret passage back. But from the looks of it, they would be arriving in the stronghold after an hour of walking. And since they have already finished their mission they didn't want to hurry back.

As the group is walking, one of them silently disappears from the group. They didn't know that something dangerous would be waiting for them after their victory. And no one is expecting that after their heroic sacrifice and obtaining victory, they would be facing an insidious plan.

None of them expected this to happen, none except for Shin Jiao who is still calm and collected. He already has a hunch of what's going to happen next.. Hence he just wanted to wait and see.
