Forgotten Legend of the Bloodied Flower



"How did you fight him?" Nan Luo could recall his spar against Long Qian Xing and felt somewhat ashamed to admit that he was indeed not as good as the other party. However, he truly didn't want to say that out loud.

Shangguan Xiao arched his eyebrows for a moment and then sighed. "Well, I can't really say too much. The two of us are not really good with each other at first."

The two of them were similar with each other.

But it was also because they were similar that they didn't like each other at the beginning and quarreled a lot. After a few betting game between two hot headed youths, they eventually became friends.

The process was somewhat… embarrassing.

They were young at that time.

It was out of impulse and Shangguan Xiao really didn't want to admit that he was so stupid when he was young. Anyway, it would be better to bury this matter deep in the ground and never talked about it again.

"Really?" Feng Ao Si felt skeptical. Looking at the two of them now, he could see that they were good friends. How could they possibly fight so much?

Shangguan Xiao shrugged. "Shall we continue our discussion?"

"Yes!"

…

While the other young commanders were busy discussing, Long Qian Xing walked in the direction where Nan Hua went not long ago. This was the first time he came to this area since he didn't have much interest in exploring the palace before.

At a relatively quiet area in the garden, he saw Nan Hua sitting under the large tree. Her posture looked relaxed and there were some butterflies that fly in her direction, swirling around and landed on her finger. It was as if they didn't think she was a threat to them.

Even with the mask covering her face, Long Qian Xing felt that the picture was beautiful.

As he walked closer, the butterflies fly away.

Nan Hua glanced at Long Qian Xing and greeted him in her real voice, "Brother Long."

Sonorous and ethereal voice.

Long Qian Xing smiled. He liked her real voice better than when she was purposely lowering her pitch to make it lower. "Hua'er."

Nan Hua nodded and watched as Long Qian Xing sat beside her. There were no one else here, so they didn't need to worry that much. Besides, with their martial arts, would they not know if someone were to get closer?

That was impossible.

"What are you planning to do in the future, Hua'er?" Long Qian Xing asked in a low voice.

They were still in the midst of war and knowing her real identity now, Long Qian Xing felt that it was highly impossible for Nan Hua to return to her real identity. The power that Nan Hua actually wield should never be associated with Nan Family.

If they were too powerful, they would just become a thorn in the eyes of others and that would be troublesome. Besides, he was not entirely clear about how much Nan Hua was hiding from him and wanted to do in her life.

He will take his time to know slowly.

"I'm not sure, but I'm not going to follow my twin brother again for some time." Nan Hua followed Nan Luo this time because she wanted to come to Yi City. However, she was sure that she would not be staying with her twin brother all the time because there were many other things that she herself wanted to do.

There was no way that she would want to stay with her twin brother and halted his growth.

With her staying close and protecting him all the time, he would never be able to grow.

So she had to leave him.

"I see." Long Qian Xing felt somewhat disappointed. He was actually hoping that Nan Hua would be staying with Nan Luo so that they could fight side by side. However, he also knew that she had something that she had to do.

He only found out that she's Nan.

But he also knew that Nan was not always staying by Nan Luo's side.

There was no record or whatsoever that could help him figured out where she was during the long period where no one saw her.

All he knew was that this little woman should have another identity that she hadn't told him and had things to do.

Nan Hua looked at Long Qian Xing for a moment before saying, "I'm going to Da Yi City for a while to check on the weapon there. After that, I will accompany Brother Si to look at his future bride."

Long Qian Xing arched his eyebrows.

Was she… reporting her itinerary?

He smiled faintly and replied, "I can go to Da Yi City because there are some things that need to be discussed with General Duan. After that, I'll be staying in the northwest border between Zhang Xu Kingdom and Fei Yang Kingdom."

The two of them looked at each other and nodded.

With them knowing where they were going to, they could also interact with each other and looked for the other party when they truly wanted to. Anyway, even if they didn't report, it was impossible for them not to know with the power behind them.

But reporting to each other still felt somewhat nice.

With their current identity, they had to be careful where they went because there were people who would be trying to take their lives. So if they were willing to report their whereabouts, it meant that they trusted the other party enough to know about this information.

Nan Hua looked at the sky.

She honestly didn't know where she wanted to go after visiting that small village where Sheng Shan Lang's sister was located.

There were many things that she could do.

From following Nan Luo as Nan, becoming Princess Jun and participated in war with Yu Jin, staying in Xia Mountains as the leader of Dark Moon Organization, and many others. There were many options and Nan Hua hadn't decided what she was going to do yet.
