Forgotten Legend of the Bloodied Flower



Their talk over dinner didn't last long. Everyone knew that they had to rest early for the battle tomorrow. This was no longer the first battle where they couldn't even sleep because of excitement.

They could easily adjust their mentality and forced themselves to rest so that they could fight in their optimal state.

No matter how important and big the battle was, it wouldn't be that much difference in the process with their other battles. They only needed to make sure that they have enough rest.

Swish!

In the quiet night, Nan Hua walked out of the area towards the nearby forest. Since Nan Luo was still considered as a small young commander, his camp was not that far from the outer edge. It didn't take long for Nan Hua to reach the forest.

"Nan Si."

"Yes, Young Miss."

"Blend with the soldiers under Nan Luo starting tomorrow."

"Yes."

The number of soldiers were fixed, so Nan Si had to figure out a way to blend with them without attracting attention. They were using five people's small squad, then 10 people, then 100 people.

If a person suddenly appeared, that would definitely arouse doubt.

Nan Si could only either replace someone or trade place with someone else with some reasons or something like that.

Nan Hua then leaned on the tree and looked at the starry sky above. After coming here, she had more free time and sometimes, she would like to stay alone and looked at the sky above her.

It was calming.

"Adjutant Nan, can't sleep?"

Hearing that voice, Nan Hua turned and looked at Long Qian Xing who had just arrived. Her eyes flickered slightly. She didn't tell anyone that she came here and with her low sense of presence, it should be hard to track her down.

"I'm only relaxing, General Xing," Nan Hua replied unhurriedly.

"You don't have to be so polite. There's no one else around." Long Qian Xing chuckled lightly. After finding out that Nan is Nan Hua, his attention often shifted towards Nan Hua unconsciously. It was as if he was trying to find her in the crowd.

Even with her low sense of presence, he could still find her from time to time.

And coming here was more like a guess. When he hadn't known Nan is Nan Hua, he often saw Nan staying alone in a rather remote place. He guessed that Nan liked to stay alone and with the low sense of presence she had, other people wouldn't usually pay attention to her.

This time, he tried his luck and found Nan Hua walking to the forest. He couldn't see what she was doing aside from sitting and looking at the night sky above.

"Yes, General Xing," Nan Hua replied again.

Long Qian Xing looked at Nan Hua helplessly. "May I take a seat here?"

"Please."

Sitting beside Nan Hua, Long Qian Xing raised his head and looked at the night sky above. The sky in this world was indeed different from the night sky he used to see in his original world.

Just looking at the sky back then always reminded him that he was now in different world. A world where he couldn't see his original family and friends anymore. The sense of loss and emptiness was strong in the beginning, but he quickly adapted to the situation.

He couldn't go back.

And he didn't want to die.

So he had to adapt. Adapt to his new identity, doing things in accordance to what he knew to protect himself and grew in this world.

By now, he had already blended with this world. He had his family and friends in this world who were different but allowed him to accept his new identity better.

"Do you like to see the sky?"

"It's calming." Nan Hua's pitch black pupil was still looking at the vast night sky. "People always feel that they can do anything and that the world had to bend with their wishes. But looking at the sky, they will feel small. The sky is vast and there are many mysteries within that hadn't been explored."

Long Qian Xing arched his eyebrows. "There are indeed many things that still left unknown in the world. But as small as we are, we can make a difference as long as we put our mind into it."

"Indeed."

"Do you wish to change the world, Hua'er?"

Nan Hua's eyes flickered. "No. I'm not that great to do that."

"Then…"

"I just wish to change history."

Long Qian Xing fell silent. Changing history was also as hard as changing the world. The world is big and these five kingdoms were clearly not the entire world. But it was the only world they knew and could grasp at this point.

And changing history meant that she wanted to leave her mark in the history, moving it in a way that she wanted to.

"As the core figure?"

"No." Nan Hua shook her head. Asking her to stand at the limelight was clearly impossible. She didn't have the desire to be looked at by other people and stood at the place where everyone could see her.

She felt comfort in the darkness.

Under the night sky, it was calming.

Not that she was afraid of the light, but it was because she knew that what she had done was not things that could be accepted by most people. As a killer, as an assassin, how many lives had been taken with her own hands and how many people's lives had been destroyed by her?

The number was uncountable.

At least, she couldn't count it.

"Whatever you want to do, you can ask me if you need any help," Long Qian Xing said after carefully looking at Nan Hua's face. She was allowing him to know her better, but he could still feel the distance in her tone and action.

It would take time for him to be able to close this distance.

"Aren't you worried that what I do was something outrageous?" Nan Hua finally turned to look at Long Qian Xing.

Long Qian Xing chuckled. "Even if you want to destroy the world, I can support you."
