Purple Dawn Till Dusk: Dearest through the time

Chapter 502: Military camp

It took a week for Senja to reach the border of the Q city. From afar, she could see the military camps that had been set out on the clearing.

The citizens were protected as the battlefield was set out of the city. Xiao Jun and Xiao Tianyao tried as much as possible to minimize the victim from innocent people.

It was only a few hour away before Senja could meet Xiao Tianyao again.

The purple girl hair urged her horse to run faster down the hill and crossed the forest, when she was getting closer to the military camps, the soldiers who safeguard their post stopped her.

"Get down from the horse and hand over your sword!" One of the guards yelled at her viciously.

However, his harsh words didn't make Senja falter. She dismounted from her horse calmly and opened her straw hat that automatically revealed her purple hair.

Fortunately, her purple hair was already well known as this was an insignia of her identity that only belong to her.

Afterwards, in an instant the five guards fell on their knees and greeted her politely.

"Shadow guard?" Senja asked their original.

"Yes, Young Miss Senja. We are shadow guard from southern fortress." The one who had talked gruffly at her responded with respect this time.

It seemed, Xiao Tianyao had managed to take all the Shadow Guard from the Azura's Army with the token that Elder Dam had given him. It was such a powerful item that could mobilize all the shadow guard.

No wonder Wang Yu was hell bent to get it. Fortunately, Elder Dam didn't blind enough to inherit the precious heirloom to his son.

"Show me the way to Xiao Tianyao." Senja said and handed over her horse to another shadow guard.

Respectfully the shadow guard who talked to her earlier led the way, while one of them brought her horse to the stables and the remaining three stand on guard on their respective post.

They walked inside the Military ground and only then, Senja could see how spacious the place and how enormous the number of the soldiers that pledged their loyalty toward Xiao Jun and Xiao Tianyao.

Row and row cavalries were training, swung their sword on top of their horse while the other were busying themselves with another task.

It would be very unfortunate if the results of their efforts become futile because of the existence of traitor.

Senja was led to the direction of a big blue tent in the middle of the clearing and they stopped.

"Young Miss Senja, Commander Xiao Tianyao is still in the middle of meeting, but Young Miss Senja could stay inside the tent." He bent his body over respectfully and held the curtain to the tent.

Senja gave the shadow guard a faint smile and entered the tent.

Inside the capacious tent, there was a big luxurious bed with white curtain surrounded it and intricate dragon adorned the four pillar of the bed, fluffy pillows and warm feathery blanket on the top of it, neatly arranged.

At the other side there was a big round table with four chairs and beautiful dark blue plush mats cover the ground.

There was not much stuff inside the tent, but all of that screamed pricey.

Senja put her sword on top of a big wooden box beside the entrance and her belongings beside it. Afterward, she stretched her taut muscles and sat on the fluffy bed. It was a long journey and the tiredness started to take a toll on her.

Wrapping herself inside the warm blanket, she kicked her shoes aside and curled herself on the bed. The faint scent of Xiao Tianyao made her body relaxed.

It was him, finally she would meet him again.

A big smile graced her lips as the sounds of those soldiers footsteps around the tent gave a feeling of safety and lulled her to a deep slumber.

Senja didn't know how long she fell asleep, but when she woke up the light around them has dimmed. The shadows of light from the torches outside were shimmering on the surface of the tent.

Inside the tent, the light was just enough for Senja to come into a conclusion that Xiao Tianyao wasn't in the room and he did not return yet.

The rumbled on her stomach forced her to wake up, put back her shoes and walked out from the tent.

The sun still not yet fully disappeared behind the horizon, but almost all the torches nearby had lit up, as the golden ray of the sun fell on her face, Senja looked at around her.

Right outside, beside the entrance, the same man who had escorted her earlier was standing on guard and the moment she saw Senja, he bowed respectfully at her.

"The meeting isn't finished yet?" She asked grumpily.
