244 Defeat for Kai Kingdom

Prince Mou looked towards the energized General Wei and he suddenly understood. Only in front of capable rivals would those generals show their real power. Without suitable opponent, they don't want to slaughter the enemy soldiers aimlessly.

With such a strong opponent in front of him, General Wei body was brimming with power. He was eager to have another fight with Soujin. The fight from before ended with tie, it was time for ending the fight.

Prince Mou shook his head at the departing general. This general was sure troublesome, but the power and ability he had were indeed real. These kinds of people were really worrying, but he knew that every able person had their quirks.

No matter how much troublesome they were, the kingdom still needed them. No matter how much he didn't wish for General Wei to hesitate like before and only waited for a suitable opponent, he couldn't berate him openly. He had to be patience towards the other party and gave him what he needed.

"First Brother, are you thinking about eliminating him?"

The provoking sound of his fifth brother entered his ear, but he didn't pay any attention to it. Without bothering how his brother knew his thought, he simply watched the fight from his place.

The fifth prince mouth curved up. This crown prince of their country was sure annoying. Not to mention the fact that their mother had been fighting over their pregnancy time that brought up to them now. But he didn't mind it. With his capabilities, he was sure he would not lose.

General Wei walked towards Soujin calmly. When the two of them faced each other, they smiled.

"Long time no see, General Soujin."

"I thought that you're an upright general. Who knew that you suddenly knocked the door when I'm away."

"Not my plan, but at least it gives me the chances to meet with you again."

"You're correct. Shall we begin?" Soujin readied his stance. He looked towards General Wei with determination. After months of training and all, he didn't believe he wouldn't get pass this general this time.

General Wei could feel that the pressure from Soujin body was far stronger compared to the time when he first clashed with the boy. It seemed the young man was already more powerful than him by a lot. The young people were indeed advancing far quicker than an old bone like him.

He smiled. "It seemed the final victor will be decided in this fight."

That sentence from General Wei made Soujin understood that the other party was ready for a battle of live and death. Previously, they never aimed for the other party death, only heavily wounded. Now that he had uttered it out, Soujin knew that he should not give any lenience towards the end of the fight anymore.

"Sure, the one who will stands at the end is me."

"Bring it on!"

The two of them move forward at the same time. Their weapon clashed together heavily, producing sounds that could tear up the ear. The soldiers around the area quickly moved back. No matter if they come from Kai Kingdom or from Nanglong family, they moved at the same time.

This was the effect the fight brought to them. The two of them were incredibly strong that the soldiers couldn't bear to stay near and got wounded because of their fight. The sound of metal clashing continued. Once, twice, thrice, and it kept on going on.

General Wei was the one who couldn't hold back against Soujin. With their fight nearing the end, he started to no longer be able to see the attack from Soujin which made powerful attack landed on his body, creating a horrible wound in the very moment.

He raised his sword, trying to block Soujin attack but no avail.

TAK!

His knee gave in, and he fell with one knee on the floor. He used his hand covering for his head with his weapon at the end of his hand. However, the expression on his face was not one who was at the end of his life.

General Wei was smiling broadly. It was like he was happy to lose against Soujin. The soldiers who surrounded them didn't understand, but they didn't have time to ponder since they still need to fight. Putting his hand down, General Wei looked towards Soujin.

"You are one amazing brat to achieve this in mere months."

Soujin put his sword down. "There are many things that happened in the past few months."

The death of Jun Min was one of the triggers that made him strive to be even better. He didn't want to lose any important friends anymore, and that was why he kept himself to be even better. The loss hit him harder than what he ever thought.

General Wei laughed. He had heard some of the incidents that happened in the past few months. It seemed that everything that happened during this past year was really intriguing. He truly wanted to know the reason of how the delicate balance broke.

"I heard some of it. Brat, you better end the battle quickly."

"What makes you so eager? Don't you always wish for Kai Kingdom to prosper?" Soujin didn't immediately attack.

The ease of not attacking his enemy right away could only be applied on Soujin. If any ordinary people try to talk to their enemy during battle, they would undoubtedly lose their life.

"Kai Kingdom changes," General Wei face turned paler and his voice faltered. "You should come there if you want to know the detail. I can't tell you much about it."

Soujin knew that something must have happened to Kai Kingdom during this period of time. He wanted to know what, but the general didn't willing to share his thoughts to him.

"My time is already over. The era for us old fools is no longer here."

Soujin really respected this old general. He was the one who teach him during the arduous battle about how to fight even better. The wound on the general's body was awful, and it wouldn't take long for the other party death if it was not treated.

"This is the new era for youngsters," General Wei muttered. Young and capable people started to rise during this time of war. He wanted to see them, but he no longer had any time. He closed his eyes, and that was the end of his life.

Despite that, the expression of the general was that of smile and a genuinely proud general.

Soujin silently gave his thanks to this old general who was teaching him a lot by becoming one of the hardest opponents he ever met. He waved his hand and his lieutenant immediately yelled.

"General Wei of Kai Kingdom is killed by General Soujin! The battle is ours!"

The cheering of the soldiers could be heard loud and clear.
