The commanding tent was right in the center of the camp. The man stopped outside the tent after leading Ji Fengyan to it. She entered with neither humility nor arrogance.

The entire situation utterly amused Ji Fengyan.

Inside the commanding tent were two men wearing armour. One of them had on a green suit—his face handsome but eyes sharp as knives. He also appeared to be over the age of thirty. The other was someone Ji Fengyan was already familiar with.

“General Ji.” Zhan Fei’s face was stony when he saw Ji Fengyan enter the tent.

Zhan Fei. Wasn’t he the Terminator accompanying Eldest Princess—who was shot by the dark guard and had to turn back home in shame?

Ji Fengyan had long guessed that the Eldest Princess was the reason she had been dragged into this three-army war. But she never expected for the Eldest Princess to be so cautious as to send Zhan Fei to the camp.

“I heard that the battle will include the Green Nightmare Army, the Blaze Army and my own troops. Why are there only two here?” Ji Fengyan knew that the other man in the green armour was the Green Nightmare Army’s General—Situ Ba.

Zhan Fei replied, “General Yang is not feeling well and is resting at the moment. I am under His Majesty’s orders to supervise this battle. I seek your kind guidance from now on.”

The General Yang mentioned by Zhan Fei was the commander of the Blaze Army, Yang Shun. He was also the most experienced Terminator in recent history.

His polite words were also meant solely for Situ Ba’s ears.

Situ Ba understood and nodded.

Ji Fengyan grinned but remained silent and just sat down by the side.

Since Ji Fengyan entered the tent, Situ Ba’s gaze never left her. His eyes were sharp as knives as he scrutinized this “General” who was barely half his age.

As Situ Ba was sizing her up, Ji Fengyan was likewise observing him. This was the Green Nightmare Army General who had a hand in her father’s death.

Situ Ba was already 32 years old. He had been leading troops for 14 years since he joined the army at the age of 18. It was under his command that the Green Nightmare Army had turned into the leading regiment in the Kingdom of the Sacred Dragon.

With the Green Nightmare Army’s rise to glory, Situ Ba’s status in the Kingdom had also followed suit—surpassing even that of the premier Terminator Qin family.

On the way here, Lu Shaoqing had hinted Ji Fengyan several times to always be on her guard when dealing with the Green Nightmare Army. They were a vicious bunch and it would be a mistake to treat them as true comrades on the same side during battle.

“Are you Ji Fengyan?” Situ Ba didn’t bother hiding his scrutiny of Ji Fengyan.

Ji Fengyan raised her brow. “Yes.”

Situ Ba glanced her over before saying coldly, “You share quite a number of similarities with your father.”

Father?

Ji Fengyan narrowed her eyes. Soon after the birth of her former self, Ji Yun had not returned to the Ji family again. She never met her father and only knew his face through portraits. Nevertheless, in her eyes, her father was a great hero. Her former self had hankered for her father’s return so that she could carry out her filial duties. This was probably the final lingering wish her former self had in the Ji family.

However…

She waited for over ten years only to receive news of his death.
