Forgotten Legend of the Bloodied Flower



Leader Ji really wanted to cry at the task that Nan Hua handed to him. At this time, he was cursing the Large Yu's ancestors for seven generations while ordering some of the trusted men and himself to clean up the mess.

He couldn't ask ordinary person to help him with this matter because there were too many confidential matters among the scrolls.

If he were to ask someone and the information leaked out, who would he blame?

Thus, he could only do it himself.

While Leader Ji was busy with the cleaning up, Nan Hua inspected the village. She didn't even know that there was a village in this place because she rarely came to this area. And looking at the hills surrounding the village, she felt that it was indeed a very secluded area.

Only those who were lucky enough would stumble upon this place.

She then returned to the hut and saw that the mess had been cleaned up. This time, she looked at the scrolls that had been assorted and checked the category in which Leader Ji put them.

"Have you found the one related to Jun Family?"

"Yes, but they didn't write their names. They only left the code to send the payment necessary and also the details of what they wanted." Leader Ji shrugged.

Nan Hua looked at the content and said nothing. She had guessed that the other party was being careful, but even if it was so, she had some guesses of who the other party is. Even if she was not sure, she knew his group.

He had to be belong to Prime Minister Lei group.

But who?

There were several possibilities and Nan Hua didn't want to guess rashly without having any evidence that could backup her conjectures.

"Anything else, Miss?" Leader Ji carried the stack of scrolls and put it inside the box that he had prepared before.

"Keep them stored away in the save headquarters." Nan Hua thought for a moment. "Tell Hui Ling and Chu Yue to follow me."

Leader Ji arched his eyebrows. Thinking about how much that young man had clamored about wanting to follow Nan Hua instead of following him, he sneered. That brat will be very happy when he heard that he no longer had to follow him.

Hmph.

"Miss, Hui Ling's training is not over. I suggest that he keeps his training when with you."

"I see."

Nan Hua thought of that wild young man and walked out of the hut. She had only helped that brat because she saw her past self in him and didn't want him to walk the same path. The same tragic and brutal path that could easily destroy a person.

There were even times when Nan Hua thought that she herself was broken. Because everything that happened in the past was not something that could keep her sanity intact.

She didn't even know what make her hold on.

As for Chu Yue… she was the one with the best martial arts among the four maidservants who followed her. It might have something to do with her aptitude, but it could be also because she was training for a long period of time under Old Master Nan before she worked under Nan Hua.

Drap! Drap! Drap!

Bang!

The door opened and Hui Ling rushed inside. He looked around and his eyes landed on Nan Hua. "Miss!"

Hui Ling was shorter than Nan Hua when she first found him. She was not entirely sure about his real age either since Hui Ling himself was not sure. But looking at the current him who had become one head taller than her, Nan Hua guessed that he should be in his teenage age and had experienced growth spurt.

Perhaps, it was the result of his training and also the sufficient nutrition when he followed Leader Ji.

"Didn't I tell you not to kick a door open?" Leader Ji looked at Hui Ling coldly. "Do you want me to repeat your etiquette class?"

Hui Ling frowned and glared at Leader Ji. He has never been the obedient type and after living in the wilderness for a while before returning to normal human's society, he retained this personality of his.

After all, it was better for a person to keep their original personality rather than asking them to change just because the environment changed.

"You will follow me for a few days."

Hui Ling's eyes lit up. "Yes, Miss! Can I ask for spar?"

Nan Hua looked at Hui Ling and then at Leader Ji. However, Leader Ji only smiled wryly. It seemed that Hui Ling had become addicted in training because he could grow stronger so quickly.

He wanted to hold his fate in his own hands and not follow others.

"Later."

"Ok. Are we going somewhere, Miss?"

"I heard the war in the border with Shi Long Kingdom had started." Nan Hua narrowed her eyes. Because she had changed the future compared to the one in the story and Long Qian Xing himself didn't participate, she didn't know what happened for sure.

However, the battle in the border will last for a long time before it could cease up slightly. The Shangguan Family would be weakened considerably because their army was the one impacted the most.

Not to mention, General Feng was also there.

Nan Hua didn't know what will happen to General Feng because his name has never been mentioned.

As for her newfound ability?

She still hadn't experimented with it, so she will put it on hold for the time being until she knew for sure how it could be done and the detailed price she needed to pay for it. It was indeed a very strange ability that seemed to be nonexistent, yet she knew that it was within her.

"Do you need me to find out what happened at the border?"

"No need. I already ask the border leader there to send a message. It should arrive this evening."

Leader Ji raised his hand and thought about the one sent at the border with Shi Long Kingdom. At that thought, his face turned bad.

He really didn't want to meet with that person ever again.
