Forgotten Legend of the Bloodied Flower

<Dark Moon Organization's Base, Xia Mountains>

"Aaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhh! So cuteeeeeeeeeeeeeee!"

In the mountain tribe, it was filled with the voice of a woman squealing in joy and a little girl babbling.

Nan Hua stared at Yan Xi, Si Mo Fan's wife, who was hugging Chen Ji Yue happily. From the looks of it, she had long wanted a daughter yet the Heaven didn't give her any other child aside from that brat Si Bai.

Beside her, Si Mo Fan was looking at his wife with a helpless expression.

He thought that when Jun Hua was declared to be their adopted daughter, Yan Xi's happiness was already the most. But now that they truly got a real adopted daughter, Yan Xi was so jubilant that she looked like she would hop up and down if not because she was carrying Chen Ji Yue.

They were not really hopeful about Si Bai's marriage prospect, so it would be better for them to find an adopted child instead.

"Are you sure that the girl's parent wouldn't search for her?" Si Mo Fan asked Nan Hua worriedly.

"Her father had died, her mother abandoned her." Nan Hua was calm.

Si Mo Fan sighed. He looked at the child and shook his head. Naturally, he could guess that the reason for the mother to leave the child was because the child was a girl. In this era, it was not easy to live as a woman and the future prospect was not much.

Rather than watching the young girl be the burden in the house, it would be better to throw her away.

At least, that was what many people who were quite poor thought.

Some of them even sold their own children for money.

It was not that uncommon.

"I guess that her identity is special since you decide to bring her here." Si Mo Fan sighed. "Don't worry, Yan Xi know how to take care of children. She'll be fine in this place."

"I'll leave her in your wife's hand."

Nan Hua didn't know how to raise children.

But she knew that it would be impossible for her to leave Chen Ji Yue in the hands of her other subordinates. Even if some of them were women, they were not exactly the type to care for children.

In their worlds that was mostly revolved in scheming, killing people, and so on, how could there be many who was used to take care of children?

Yan Xi was an exception.

The other person Nan Hua could think was her aunt, but there were too many people who were watching her. After all, Nan Si Qiao's husband is Feng Qian Shao, General Feng, who had high status at the battlefield.

If she suddenly adopted a daughter, wouldn't it attract a lot of people's attention immediately?

That was why Nan Hua decided not to bring Chen Ji Yue to her aunt.

"Okay." Si Mo Fan nodded.

"How's the progress?"

"We're almost done with Wei Da Kingdom's area. If you want us to make our moves now, we're ready." Si Mo Fan grinned.

Nan Hua shook her head. "There's no need to be in such a hurry. Just wait for Fei Yang Kingdom's movement."

"How long would it be?"

"At most Autumn."

It was still the end of winter, but Autumn meant that there should be another half a year. Si Mo Fan felt that the time was right too. War was not done overnight as they required a lot of preparation and many other calculations.

He looked at Nan Hua and sighed.

Watching Nan Hua gave various orders and her management ability, Si Mo Fan was sure that it was because of Nan Hua that Dark Moon Organization was able to grow so massively like this.

If it was left in his hand, Si Mo Fan was sure that Dark Moon Organization would have long collapsed.

Although daily operation only required his supervision and some approval, the important matters were all sent to Nan Hua directly. Back when they just first started, there were few things worth mentioning.

But now, everything seemed to be stacking up neatly.

There would definitely be some letters towards Nan Hua every two to three days containing a stack of important matters that required her decision. If she didn't make a decision, they wouldn't be able to proceed.

No one dared to step forward and take the project on their own.

It was too important!

If something wrong happened, they would definitely be blamed.

"Yes, Miss."

"I'm going for a bit. I'll return tomorrow."

Tomorrow?

Si Mo Fan blinked his eyes and could only agree helplessly. He was not in the position to monitor whatever Nan Hua was planning to do.

However, he turned to look at the four people Nan Hua brought with her.

She said that for the time being the four of them would be staying in Dark Moon Organization and dealt with the people who wanted to harm them. Of course, there were also other tasks that Nan Hua had given to them.

It was just...

Si Mo Fan really couldn't fathom how in the world Nan Hua gained another four experts all of the sudden.

Their skills were not any lower than him.

But their weapons were all strange even in his eyes.

Forget it, it was not his business to privy into Nan Hua's matter. All he knew was that he had to arrange for these four people some things to do.

...

Swish!

In the middle of the forest, Nan Hua continued to depart towards the east. It was already late at night, but Nan Hua didn't really care that much about it.

She only stopped when she was not far from a small thatched hut.

There were two people who were talking inside.

"Master, you're basically conning him when you asked for a lot of money as the payment when you basically do nothing." Shan Yu's mocking tone could be heard even from outside.

Traveling Doctor Liu snorted. "My disciple is the one who did the hard work, so of course I have to ask for suitable payment."
