469 JU LONG

"You!?" The same man responded in the same way as Senja. His eyes widened in disbelief. "Yun! Why this girl is with you?" That man pointed his finger at Senja.

With another person came for their aid, it had only take another minute to finish all the soldiers who were surrounding them before.

When all those soldiers had gone, that man took his stance beside Yun and faced Senja with agitated expression etched on his face.

"Now, tell me what the relationship between both of you?" He demanded.

Yun looked confused. He cleaned his sword from blood with the nearest death soldier's robe before he put it back into the scabbard. "Both of you knew each other?"

"Well, you can say that she left me behind with a group of people came looking for her and her Prince." He said in mocking tone. Totally despised by the memory of the last time they saw each other.

"I didn't mean that…" Senja lowered her head in shamed.

He was Ju Long, the person that she had helped from the palace guards at the night when Xiao Tianyao was being poisoned. However, Xiao Tianyao and she left him when a group of people were coming to look for them. Without goodbye or warned him about the danger that came to his way.

"Good thing I could escape them." Ju Long huffed with dissatisfaction.

"You know he is a prince…" Senja noted about this revelation.

"Of course I know!" He said with matter of fact tone.

Yun raised his eyebrows by this coincidence, agitatedly Ju Long told him how he had met Senja and Xiao Tianyao in the night where he tried to escape from the guards, but stupidly couldn't open the fetters.

And so on, he kept rumbling about his dissatisfaction of Senja's action and how rude she was until Yun had have enough with his explanation and cut his complain coldly.

"What happened here?" He asked impatiently. "This city supposed to be under Xiao Jun's force, but why Xiao Zi's soldiers are roaming here?"

"Don't you hear the news?" Ju Long was squinted his eyes, as though he didn't believe Yun was oblivious with the recent situation in the L city and about the war between the Emperor and Xiao Jun.

"I don't." Yun answered truthfully.

Yun rushed to the northern fortress once he heard about Senja from the other Senja, so he didn't really know how the recent situation in this city.

"Well…" Ju Long sighed in distaste. He didn't like to relay this information. "Xiao's armies are in the border of the Capital City. They suffered great lost by losing Q city and L city, but somehow they managed to pull it through with the backup from Moon Dew Clan."

"How they could suffer great lost like that?" Senja narrowed her eyes. "Something must have gone wrong."

"You can say there are traitor among them." Ju Long shrugged his shoulders nonchalantly.

With that being said, strangely Senja didn't surprise… she knew there must be someone pulled dirty trick behind their plan. She should pay more attention about this.

If she had met them before or wanted to know more about their plan… she would have known who the traitors…

"Jun trusts the wrong person…" Yun mumbled. "Where they are now exactly?"

Ju Long tilted his head while thinking. "They will enter the capital city, the first thing in the morning."

Without a second thought Senja and Yun moved simultaneously toward their horses, there was no time to waste.

"Where are you going?" Ju Long looked at both of them. "Don't tell me you will come to the capital city?"

The firm looked that Yun gave him answered his question.

"You can't go there, there was a war there. Too dangerous." Ju Long shook his head. "You can't enter the city!"

However, Yun didn't bat an eye when he said. "That is why I called you. You will come with us."

"No! I will not come with you!"
