Forgotten Legend of the Bloodied Flower novel Chapter 839

Chapter 839: Ambush

The wind was silently singing slow melody.

The leaves were falling from the trees and danced in accordance to the music provided by them.

It was a peaceful day.

The carriage continued to move and there didn't seem to be anything out of the ordinary. The guards were talking while guarding, the maidservants were making jokes inside the carriage to lighten the atmosphere.

Everything seemed normal.

Swish! Swish! Swish!

Dozens of arrows were shot from within the forest.

"There's an ambush! Protect the young miss!" The head guard yelled and brandished his sword.

Following the dozens of arrows that were shot towards the carriage, several figures shot out of the bushes. It seemed that they were ready to make a move from the moment they heard that the carriage was leaving the Capital City.

As to how they knew that…

It was not exactly a secret considering that Nan Hua's carriage did bear Nan Family's symbol on their door.

It wouldn't be hard for one to recognize it.

Clang! Clang! Clang!

The sound of metal clashing reverberated through the forest. It alarmed many people who were watching this procession. Some of them rushed over in different direction in order to relay the piece of news to several people.

"Hurry!"

"Deal with them!"

"Don't let them get close to the carriage!" The Head Guard was feeling nervous. He had noticed that the number of people who ambushed them were far more than their number. It was already hard enough for them to fight 1 vs 3 or 4, but they also had to protect the carriage.

"Yes!"

Clang! Clang! Clang!

The soldiers were trying their best to fight to the fullest. They didn't want to die yet and it was clearly not the best time for them to die.

"Continue to fight! There'll be reinforcement coming!"

"There are more people coming!"

The men who ambushed frowned and looked at the carriage in front of him. He couldn't see very clearly into the carriage, but he could guess that the young miss of Nan Family should be inside.

"Fire!"

The archers who were prepared then began to shoot arrows once more.

This time, it was not ordinary arrows but rather fire arrow. During the time the other group was intercepting the guards, they were preparing themselves to prepare the burning arrow.

Swoosh!

"No!"

The head guard yelled and tried to stop it. However, there were too many arrows hitting the motionless carriage in the middle. Fire began to spread.

"Come out! Help Young Miss out!" the head guard yelled.

The two maidservants were both flustered and wanted to get close. However, the number of the people who ambushed them were too overwhelming. There was no chance for them to even get close to the carriage.

All they could do was to watch it as it was burning.

*neigh*

Hearing the sound of horse from a distance, they all turned their heads and saw that the soldiers had arrived. The one leading at the front was Feng Ao Kuai.

After all, the Nan Family decided to use the south gate. It was not far from where Feng Ao Kuai and Nan Luo were stationed during this period of time.

Feng Ao Kuai's eyes turned cold when he saw the burning carriage. "Kill them all!"

"Yes, Second Young Commander Feng!"

Bang!

Clang! Clang! Clang!

The sound of metal clashing grew even more fiercer as Feng Ao Kuai drove the horse towards the carriage. It was already burning so fiercely that not a single one was left intact. Furrowing his eyebrows, Feng Ao Kuai used his sword, brandishing it towards the burning carriage.

Slash!

The charred wood fell down, revealing the burning inside.

Feng Ao Kuai's expression didn't change, but the aura around him turned colder. He turned around and waved his hand, indicating for his archers to begin shooting. When he came, he always made necessary preparation.

He was not like his older brother who only know how to charge forward.
