Forgotten Legend of the Bloodied Flower



Before Long Qian Xing finished speaking, Nan Hua had jumped down. Long Qian Xing tried to pull Nan Hua back, but she agilely evaded his hand and dashed into the inner area after jumping over the wall easily.

"General Xing, this…"

"Wait here." Long Qian Xing waved his hand but didn't try to break in too.

His eyes were turbulent with emotions.

He understood Nan Hua's intention.

But he couldn't agree with her method. This was the same as putting Nan Hua's life on the stake because she had to be the one to drag Lin Sun out from this poisonous mountain.

What if something like before happened again?

Long Qian Xing's fingers clenched to form a fist unknowingly.

His adjutants who were nearby noticed Long Qian Xing's gesture and silently backed away.

As someone who had accompanied Long Qian Xing for a long period of time, he naturally understood the implication of Long Qian Xing's action.

He's angry.

Angry at Nan Hua for recklessly stepping forward and put herself in the face of danger.

Swish!

Traveling the somewhat familiar path, Nan Hua reached the inner area. Looking at the few elders who were discussing together, Nan Hua's eyes locked onto Lin Sun, whom she had recognized after looking at his painting.

The painting in this era really made it difficult for one to truly recognize a person, but Long Qian Xing had also written the characteristic of Lin Sun for her.

That way, she knew which among them was Lin Sun.

Nan Hua's eyes were calm as she continued to run through the poison mist around her. These little poison had little effect on her. Her body's poison immunity was something she built by herself, so she knew her limit very well.

"Who?"

The elders were stunned when they sensed someone passing by them. Before they could react, Nan Hua had reached Lin Sun's location and tapped his accupoint, immobilizing him.

"You…"

"Release…"

Bang!

A bag of powder was thrown in these elders' direction while Nan Hua pulled Lin Sun's back clothes at the neck area and dragged him out without hesitation. When the elders reached, the two of them were already a distance away.

"Get her!"

"Damn it! How did they get here…?"

Swish!

The weight behind didn't seem to trouble Nan Hua in the slightest bit as she dragged Lin Sun out of the compound.

"Damn it!"

Swish! Stab! Stab!

Throwing several knives with her free hand, Nan Hua effectively stopped these elders from coming to get her. With her training as an assassin, each and every one of these knives were directed to their vital point.

If she didn't purposely move them away, she would always aim for the point that can kill her opponent at the fastest time possible.

This had long become her instinct.

Thud! Thud!

Some elders were lucky enough to escape the vital point by a bit, which made them not die directly. But many others died immediately as their vital points were hit so there was simply no chance of survival.

Nan Hua didn't pay attention to these elders and continued to run while dragging Lin Sun behind her.

Reaching the gate, she took out her sword and slashed it in the direction of the block that blocked it.

Slash! Thud!

The thick block was split into two and Nan Hua kicked the door open.

Bang!

Fei Yang Kingdom's soldiers along with the few people from Lin Family turned their head when they heard the commotion. They saw Nan Hua came out and threw Lin Sun like throwing out a trash.

Thud!

Being dragged forcefully by Nan Hua, Lin Sun's back was already scarred due to the bumps on the road. After all, Nan Hua basically didn't give him any mercy at all when she dragged him out of his nest.

The elders behind were already close, but they stopped upon sighting the soldiers right outside the gate.

Without hesitation, all of them ran in the opposite direction.

Lin Sun is important.

But they all cared for their lives more than Lin Sun.

Rather than sacrificing their lives for a losing battle, they better run away as far as possible and figured out a way to escape this catastrophe.

"Lin Sun, right?" Long Qian Xing ignored those elders. He really didn't have enough resources to neutralize all the poison in the inner area. Once those elders hid long enough while still burning more of these poisons, he wouldn't be able to last that long and might lose a lot of soldiers.

In that case, he would just deal with the main person.

"No! I'm not!" Lin Sun shook his head in fear. His aged hand tried to take out the poison pouch he usually carried within his pocket.

Step!

Pressing Lin Sun's hand with her feet, Nan Hua looked at Lin Sun coldly. The murderous intent was faintly spread out, targeting Lin Sun specifically. This made the previously somewhat amiable and cute young woman turned into a terrifying existence.

"I'll kill him." Long Qian Xing sensed Nan Hua's killing intent, his body stiffened unconsciously.

This was because he was extremely familiar with the killing intent. After killing uncountable number of people, he knew that when he saw these people again, he could emit some kind of pressure. It was the type of pressure that only those had been hovering behind life and death coupled with having killing uncountable number of people could truly have.

Being stared by people who have true killing intent would make them fell as if they had entered the abyss. Cold and dark, suppressing them to the very limit.

This killing intent couldn't have come out of nowhere.

Long Qian Xing's anger that was brewing was slowly suppressed by distress and pain. What did Nan Hua experienced in her life to be able to show such killing intent?

How many people she had to kill?

At such a young age, how many times had she actually hovered between life and death?
