Forgotten Legend of the Bloodied Flower

No matter what, there will definitely be many other people who were sold by their own parents.

"And you didn't believe in love either?" Chu Yue asked.

"I never said that." Lou shrugged. "You're the one who said it."

"I know I did." Chu Yue rolled her eyes. Lou smiled as he controlled the rein in his hands. "I don't really think too much about it."

"Really?"

"Yes."

Chu Yue pouted but Lou didn't explain more about it. He knew that if they were to discuss this matter, it was estimated that they would never finish speaking until the very end. It would have been a long and pointless conversation.

Yet for some reason, Lou didn't mind having such a conversation with Chu Yue.

Though, they still switched to other things because Chu Yue's attention was attracted to other matters. Chu Yue and Lou talked with each other along the journey before they eventually had a break and the two of them started to work. They had to set up the camp for the night and so on. Nan Hua and Long Qian Xing also stopped and headed into the forest beside their camp to take a look at the surroundings area. Their men would be the one to make their tent and all.

Nan Hua and Long Qian Xing also stopped and headed into the forest beside their camp to take a look at the surroundings area. Their men would be the one to make their tent and all. As the leaders, they were instead the one who relaxed the most.

"Don't you need to supervise them?" Nan Hua asked.

"No." Long Qian Xing shook his head. "We've been doing this for years and my men knows what to do without me giving them any instruction."

In the beginning, he did watch and sometimes helped. But later on, he had other more important things to do such as arranging tactics and also tending his wounds, so he stopped doing it.

Besides, the camp's size was too big for him to personally supervise.

After he had reached the rank of a general, he had to delegate that task to the commanders below him. Even if there were not many soldiers who came along with them in this journey, their number was still quite big. "I see." Nan Hua nodded.

"You yourself didn't supervise them." Long Qian Xing pointed at the people Nan Hua brought.

"Chu Yue will handle it." Nan Hua didn't bring many people with her. The soldiers who were temporarily handed to her by Fei Yang Kingdom were lead by Adjutant Jiang and Number 1 who stayed there to help Young Commander Kui and the others.

Part of Long Qian Xing's soldiers, led by Long Xu, also followed Yu Jin to the north to join with the three families who were guarding the border and facing Shi Long Kingdom's army there. Nan Hua had never been really involved with her army. She had no interest to do it either because she knew very well that her career as a general wouldn't last for long. When this war was over, she would return to Fei Yang Kingdom's Capital City.

As for what she would do later, that would be something for her to decide later. "Hmm."

Long Qian Xing nodded at Nan Hua's words.

The two of them were walking side by side, enjoying the night breeze and the night view of the forest. The forest was different from the forest in other areas where they lived. There were many different plants that Long Qian Xing couldn't recognize.

It looked rather fresh.

Nan Hua looked at her surrounding, feeling a rare peace. She knew very well that the moment they reached that temple, she would have to be honest to Long Qian Xing.

Honest about her real identity that was the same as these people.

That she came from a different world. It was her promise to herself.

Yet, at this moment, she just wanted to forget everything and only enjoyed the peaceful moment and relaxed her body and mind. Taking a walk with the person she cared the most and wanting to spend the rest of her life with.

It felt comforting. The two of them walked aimlessly without any clear direction. They were only walking around the edge of the camp, enjoying each other's presence and the calming atmosphere.

"There's a small pond over here."

Nan Hua's keen eyes noticed that there was something different and when she approached, it was a small pond. The water was not deep and the size itself was not very big, but there were still some small fishes swimming inside.

When both Long Qian Xing and Nan Hua approached, the two of them hid their presence.

Thus, these fishes didn't seem to notice them and still swim around the small pond leisurely.

Nan Hua crouched beside the pond and her finger lightly dipped on the pond.

The fishes were startled for a moment. But Nan Hua didn't move her finger at all and the fishes seemed to notice that she meant no threat to them. Slowly, the fishes swam around and one of them pecked on her finger.

Long Qian Xing crouched by the side, watching Nan Hua played with the fishes. There was a smile on his face and eyes.

He could see that Nan Hua looked very cold on the surface, but deep inside, she was a warm hearted person. Even if he couldn't fully understand her, he tried to get to know her more and more with the passage of time. At this moment, Nan Hua looked exceptionally gentle. The light from the moon allowed him to see her appearance and her beautiful eyes as she watched the fishes brushed across her finger and she lightly petted them. She always looked so dazzling no matter what she did. This view looked so breathtakingly beautiful. If it was possible, Long Qian Xing really wanted to take a picture of this moment and keep it forever. He wanted to engrave every moments into his heart and treasure them. "Hua'er," Long Qian Xing called and Nan Hua turned her head. He smiled. "I love you."

Nan Hua blinked her eyes and then smiled sweetly, "I love you too, Brother Long."
