Forgotten Legend of the Bloodied Flower

"Give us your money!" The man at the front laughed. He brandished his sword, pointing it towards the group of people in front of him. "If you don't want to, I'll kill everyone here."

His menacing posture caused the guards to frown. They didn't really expect that there would be someone who dared to rob them in the middle of the daylight like this. After all, they all came from Nan Family.

With the Nan Family words written so clearly, how could these people still came to attack them?

"Give! Give!" Madam Qu yelled. She felt heartache when she thought of her valuable jewelries. However, her life was much more important compared to these jewelries that she valued so much.

Nan Xin was not in any better condition. Her carriage was behind Nan Hua, which made her located at the back. Right now, she could see the number of people who were flashing their blades.

Even though there were Nan Family Guards who were guarding, it still didn't erase her fear of encountering them all.

"Bandits?" Nan Xin asked in a trembling voice.

"Miss, please stay inside." Nan Xin's servant was holding Nan Xin tightly. She was also afraid, but she knew that there were indeed some bandits outside this area.

There were several bandits who were surrounding the areas around Nan Xin's carriage. They were bringing some big weapon and looked extremely scary, making the maidservants feel so fearful.

"Stay inside, Madam!" Nan Family Head Guard quickly instructed. He looked at the bandits in front of him as his hand that was holding the sword trembled. For some reason, he felt that this group was not a group of ordinary bandits.

Normal bandits would not attack Nan Family because of their reverence towards Great General Nan. Yet, this group of bandits even attacked them first and not threaten them.

He only had one conclusion towards this strange occurrence.

Someone had ordered this group of bandit to attack Nan Family.

When the thought crossed his mind, the Nan Family Head Guard felt that his back was drenched in sweat. There were too many people who would want to see Nan Family fell, so he was not sure who sent this group of people in front of him.

"Who sent you?" Nan Family Head Guard asked in a low voice.

The bandit in front of him snickered. He looked at the head guard and snorted. "If only you're a bit more stupid, we would let you off. Men, kill them."

"What did you do?" Madam Qu screamed and yelled loudly when she saw that the men began to attack once more.

KYAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!

"Just give him some money so that he could leave!" Madam Qu ordered in hysterical voice.

The maidservants around her were screaming in fear. They were all trying to stop Madam Qu from going out because it would be very dangerous outside.

It was chaos.

"Madam, please stay inside!" Nan Family Head Guard really wanted to knock Madam Qu unconscious. Screaming would not help in this situation and would only worsen the situation. Based on what these people were saying, they would definitely not let them off even if they give some money.

What they wanted was their lives.

Even though Nan Family Head Guard was confused as to who would possibly want to kill the madam and the two young misses, he didn't dare to speculate openly when his life was in danger like this.

Clang! Clang!

KYAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!

At the back carriage, Nan Xin saw a guard dead in front of her and fainted out of fear. Right now, she was too afraid that she would die and her entire nerves immediately gave out. There was no need to say anything else as she had never encountered such situation.

No matter how bad the assassination in Nan Family was, Nan Xin had never known any of them because they were hidden very well from her.

But this time, this had occurred in front of her.

"Miss, Second Young Miss Nan had fainted," Chu Yue gave the report in a low tone. Her eyes contained no fear as she watched the group of men who were attacking the guards in front of her.

Nan Hua nodded, not finding it strange at all.

"She's so weak." Mu Yan shook her head. Those who heard about this would never think of her as someone from military family. Many other ladies who came from the military family would at least receive some basic education even if they were not trained in martial arts.

They were people who would not be weak when facing the attack of these bandits and might even the lead soldiers by themselves. But it was clear that Nan Shu Cheng had no intention of letting his family become a military family and instead leaning to scholarly family.

But how 'noble' could he actually be?

"She's just a pampered young miss." Xiao Yun shrugged. "Not all young miss will be taught martial arts even though the world's condition is already this bad."

In fact, most of them would never learn it.

They would simply stay in their home and waited for the men to resolve the matter of war by themselves. It was not like they didn't want to help but most likely because they really couldn't do anything.

"Miss, shall we do something?" Mu Yan asked.

The guards outside were all busy fighting. Nan Family had included a lot of guards to protect the three of them, but the number of the bandits were too much. If this continued, it meant that things would turn for the worse.

Clang! Clang! Clang!

Protecting their masters was their job, so the guards were all doing their best. They knew that if they failed to protect their master, the outcome waiting for them would only be death.

There was no other way out.

"No need." Nan Hua didn't even move from her position. It was as if she was not in any danger whatsoever. "Ask them to fight seriously."
