Return: The Dragon Legend

Ch. 94. Under the Sakura Tree

Not long ago the two were again approached by hundreds of soldiers with full weapons, only to distinguish them together with General Guan

“Sorry Princess..Lelder servant” General Guan saluted Mei Hwa before doing the same to Shou Yan “Young Master Shou.”

“Uncle still remember me.?”

“If it wasn't for the match earlier this afternoon, maybe I would be late to realize it” General Guan had forgotten about the figure of Shou Yan because two years never met

Through Mei Hwa who shouted loudly while saying her name then she was sure that the figure who had once been her study disciple had now become part of the Sect and entered the Tournament

For a moment he realized from his daydream after Mei Hwa called his name several times “Report Mr. Putri.. traitor has managed to catch us”.

“Traitor.?” Inner Shou Yan while looking towards Mei Hwa

“Don't forget there.” Point Mei Hwa towards the back, the former Shou Yan fight with twenty soldiers

“Good Mr. Putri” General Guan saluted him before leaving the two and carrying out the task

Shou Yan was silent for a moment looking at General Guan gallantly leading the hundreds of soldiers marching following him from behind

“Hwa’er.. are you planning something.?”

“No.. I only ordered General Guan to investigate one of the warrior leaders who had long been suspected of being a spy”

Shou Yan thought about the action that Mei Hwa did “What figure of the leader is the Colonel..? and you act as bait.?”

“It..true”

“You..!?” Shou Yan wanted to scold Mei Hwa for acting alone not even informing her plan “And when faced with the soldier earlier..? You already know they are traitors.?”

Mei Hwa nodded slowly while lowering her head, with the face shown by Shou Yan clearly visible anger that she was deliberately hiding

Shou Yan felt at the playful although he was actually also relieved that nothing had happened, Shou Yan turned around while holding both of his waist before returning to look towards Mei Hwa “I don't understand about the situation in the Palace but.. Don't act like that again”

Shou Yan held onto both of his shoulders while staring meaningfully, it could have been that his plan as bait failed and if that had happened Shou Yan was the first to commit suicide for not being able to protect the person he cared about

“I'm sure the archer soldier was not part of your plan” Shou Yan let go of his handle then sighed “And also.. The two white masked figures were also not included in the plan.?”

Mei Hwa grumbled while smiling wryly “What Yan'gege mad at me.?”

Shou Yan turned around and walked a few steps before answering the question from Mei Hwa “Surely.

The words that Shou Yan spoke calmed his mind, he thought that he would get a nagging from the young man before him but the one he got was just the opposite “I believe in Yan'ge”

Shou Yan looked at Mei Hwa then approached her “Please promise not to harm yourself anymore” Shou Yan said as he stroked Mei Hwa's head

“ah,. uum, I promise” Mei Hwa smiled gently while continuing to be spoiled

Shou Yan felt like he was dealing with someone who was not a stranger, from behind the smile that Mei Hwa showed he saw the shadow figure of another girl with long hair unraveling while smiling as she shed tears towards him

Mei Hwa waved her hand right on Shou Yan's face but her two eyes did not blink “Yan’ge..? Yan'ge..!? Why are you daydreaming.?”

“I don't want to go back” Mei Hwa rejected Shou Yan's invitation, he has not seen her for a long time and had to part quickly, it really makes her upset.

“But Hwa'er.. What if some bad guy wants to harm you again.?”

“Leave it. Anyway I don't want to go back..! Hummfff” Mei Hwa crossed both her hands on her chest while she was singing her lips

“Hwa'er.” Shou Yan muttered, he already memorized if the little girl before him had already shown such a trait, it would take a long time to persuade him “Then what do you want to do in the middle of the night like this.?”

“No.. Yan'gege fool... fool.!” Mei Hwa ran without direction leaving Shou Yan who was still speechless while putting on a confused face

“Hwa’er.!?” Shou Yan was about to raise his hand against the nature of this one Mei Hwa. According to him, returning to the palace was the safest place because so many soldiers were guarding the noble residence

Shou Yan thought for a moment before chasing after Mei Hwa, even though things were under control but it was still very dangerous to go out alone at night

For a swordsman does not need too much time to find someone, especially with Mei Hwa's footsteps that do not practice deep energy, then running will certainly not be far

In the middle of the pond there is a wooden bridge across the middle, there is a little girl standing while looking at a golden fish

“Why Yan'ge is so stupid” Mei Hwa plays her cloth while continuing to curse her

“Why are you talking to yourself.?”

“Yan'ge-.. how did you get here.?” Mei Hwa knew that even if she ran as fast as she could, she would not be able to match the speed of a swordsman but she did not expect that Shou Yan would find her quickly

Shou Yan walked slowly closer to Mei Hwa “I'm sorry if my actions have offended you” Somehow in which part he mispronounced, maybe apologizing is the best way

“It's okay.. Yan'gege did the right thing” Mei Hwa ignored Shou Yan and walked away, then she sat down on a sakura tree which was not far from the fish pond

Shou Yan followed Mei Hwa's steps and came to sit right beside her “From childhood I grew up with grandfather in the middle of the forest, even until now I do not know who my parents are”

Shou Yan tells the story of his childhood with Guo An and only living together in the middle of the forest, until where he met General Guan and Mei Hwa

Mei Hwa just fell silent without looking at her, even so Shou Yan continued to tell her story for two years, she hoped that from her story it could make Mei Hwa realize how valuable the figure of an old man is

“What Hwa'er also continues to be in the palace.?” After running out of story materials, Shou Yan asked Mei Hwa

“It was the first time I came out of the palace environment” Mei Hwa began to open a little by telling her bored childhood, not denied that her meeting with Shou Yan created a happiness

Traveling around the city, studying together, even having dinner together can make him happy. Because all these things he will not be able to get in the palace

All his movements were always restricted in the palace, including when he wanted to eat he was alone because his parents were always busy with state affairs

“When I met Yan'gege, I could feel the warmth and Grandpa Guo had me. assume. se.bagai.”.

Shou Yan heard Mei Hwa's voice that slowly became quiet until he finally fell asleep on his shoulder “Maybe he was exhausted after running”

Shou Yan yawned after seeing Mei Hwa fall asleep, sometimes drowsiness is contagious. Shou Yan leaned his head on the tree behind him, without feeling the two of them asleep under the sakura tree
