Forgotten Legend of the Bloodied Flower

"AHhhhhhhh! I already lost more than 20 points, why are you still attacking fiercely?" Nan Luo wanted to cry with blood and tears when he saw the messed up board. He had been bragging in front of Feng Ao Kuai, but he ended up being slaughtered inside this game.

It was to the point that he didn't know what to do anymore.

"Didn't I tell you before that you have to think before making a move?" Feng Ao Kuai was expressionless. Since Nan Luo dared to provoke him, he would make sure this younger cousin of his knew the price he had to pay.

"I already think..."

"Not enough."

"Ugh..." Nan Luo held the next stone with tears on his face. He really wanted to just flip this board. The situation looked so hopeless for him.

"It's your turn." Feng Ao Kuai was calm as he looked at Nan Luo.

"Can we stop playing?" Nan Luo asked weakly.

"No."

Nan Luo's face fell. When he saw Feng Ao Kuai was reveling in his misery, he really wanted to knock this cousin of his. If not because he was still injured and had to stay on the bed, Nan Luo would have long challenged Feng Ao Kuai on a formal battle.

"Make your move." Feng Ao Kuai was indifferent. This was one of his payback for Nan Luo who kept on teasing him.

And Nan Luo really couldn't do anything.

His adjutants were all outside the tent and chose not to interfere. If Feng Ao Kuai switched the target to him, they wouldn't know where to cry.

Outside the tent.

Nan Hua: "..."

Judging from the way Nan Luo was still so energetic with Feng Ao Kuai, she really doubted that it was severe injury.

Nan Hua glanced at the guard who looked awkward. He had been staying here to guard Nan Luo's tent and naturally heard the conversation inside because they were really loud. It would be impossible not to hear when Nan Luo was screaming that loudly.

He felt a bit ashamed that his commander was really childish.

But thinking of Nan Luo's age...

The complaint stuck in his mouth.

Nan Hua waved her hand, indicating for the guard to announce her presence.

The guard cleared his throat. "Adjutant Nan is here to see Young Commander Nan."

"Huh? Nan?" Nan Luo was so stunned that he nearly moved.

Feng Ao Kuai quickly raised his hand and pressed Nan Luo's shoulder. "You're not allowed to move your legs."

"I know..." Nan Luo looked at Feng Ao Kuai weakly. It was not like he didn't know that he was not allowed to move, but hearing that Nan Hua came had startled him greatly. He coughed and then replied to the guard, "Let him in."

Nan Hua walked inside and saw Nan Luo who was lying on the bed. One of his legs were wrapped in some kind of large bundle that looked really messy. It seemed that whoever treated his leg didn't have good skill to bandage it afterwards.

At least, it was protected.

"Nan!" Nan Luo smiled happily. He then looked at his legs and felt extremely embarrassed.

He was the one who said to himself that when Nan Hua came in the future, he would have been much better. But reality just proved that at the time Nan Hua came, he was lying on the bed because of wounds and couldn't do anything.

That was so embarrassing.

Nan Hua nodded and walked to Nan Luo before checking on his pulse. In any case, she wanted to know his condition. Looking at his wrapped leg, Nan Hua's eyes flickered a bit.

"What happened?"

"I entered a bit too deep to the enemy's line." Nan Luo scratched the back of his head with his other hand. "As a result, it took me much longer to return to the headquarter and end up injured."

"Be careful next time."

After checking him, Nan Hua realized that Nan Luo was already getting better. It was not much of a big deal as he was not wounded that deeply and only skin wounds.

"Yes!"

"You're not allowed to participate in the battle until you're healed."

"I know..." Nan Luo was already warned this by his doctor not to make any move at all until he was truly healed.

"Why didn't you tell me directly?"

Nan Luo was stumped. He didn't know what to say when Nan Hua asked about this matter. Should he say that he didn't want her to worry or should he say that he didn't know exactly her whereabouts?

He felt conflicted.

Feng Ao Kuai looked at Nan Luo then at Nan Hua. "He didn't want you to worry."

"If I didn't know, would I be less worried?" Nan Hua asked back.

This time, they couldn't answer.

"You're a bit far... I don't know exactly your position aside from the fact that you're inside Zhang Xu Kingdom," Nan Luo said weakly.

It was the truth. He heard from Hou Lin that Nan Hua was staying deep in Zhang Xu Kingdom, away from the battlefield. However, he was not exactly sure about the location because Nan Hua was taking on a disguise.

In addition, the shadows who worked under Nan Family was not exactly that influential to the point that they could breach into Zhang Xu Kingdom without anyone knowing. They were mostly still limited in Fei Yang Kingdom.

In other kingdoms, their movements were more restrained.

It would be impossible to completely infiltrate into many areas like what they had done in the areas around Xia Mountains.

Nan Hua looked at Nan Luo and then raised her hand. She poked his forehead lightly. "I'll let you off this time."

Nan Luo smiled brightly.

Feng Ao Kuai looked disappointed. He was waiting to see Nan Luo getting beaten up by Nan Hua too since he couldn't defeat Nan Luo normally in battle.

He could only torture Nan Luo through other ways.

And this game was just one of them that was the easiest to use without actually harming Nan Luo.
