Forgotten Legend of the Bloodied Flower

"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."

Chu Yue outside raised her hand and took out her sword. However, she didn't attack the bandits and merely stood there.

The Nan Family Guards, who were originally only defending, began to move. Not all of them were responding but only a few of them. They were the people whom Nan Hua had replaced after staying in Nan Family for some time.

Swish! Slash!

A knife pierced the bandit knee. The bandit was stunned but before he could shout anything, the guard had already slashed the sword to the bandit's knife. After that, he quickly switched to the other bandit who was approaching him.

Swish!

Yes, they were assassins.

Nan Hua had replaced some of the guards with those from Dark Moon Organization. Since she couldn't possibly make a move by herself most of the time, what move would be better than to replace the guards around her with those from Dark Moon Organization and let them do the dirty work?

Even if they also did it covertly, it was easier for them to do that rather than asking for Nan Hua to settle it herself.

Her maidservant wouldn't be able to hide the fact that they were practicing martial arts, so Nan Hua let them used it from time to time. What she asked them to hide was their true martial arts rank.

They would be able to settle some smaller problems.

But for bigger ones, it would be better to let the soldiers settled it.

From the carriage, Nan Hua listened as the guards who were also her assassins began to move and eliminated those people. They didn't know her real identity but they were ordered to follow the order because their mission was to protect Nan Family First Young Miss.

A rather different mission.

One that paid more than the others.

That way, Nan Hua was not lacking in money at all.

"It's settled." Xiao Yun smiled.

Nan Family Head Guard felt that he was dreaming when he saw what had happened. He had been despairing because they were outnumbered. Not to mention, Madam Qu was still kicking a fuss along with her servants. But for some reason, it seemed that the bandits were not as strong as he thought.

"We have already settled the problem, Madam Qu." Nan Family Head Guard turned around. Upon seeing Madam Qu was trembling in fear and seemed to be on the verge of losing her mind, he was dumbfounded.

To think that the loudest person turned into a mute right now.

Upon seeing that there was a person who died right in front of the carriage, he understood that Madam Qu was scared because there was someone who died in front of her. This caused her to be unable to do anything properly and hugged her maidservant out of fear.

This…

What should he do now?

"Continue the journey." Chu Yue walked to the front and cupped her fist. "If we stay here any longer, it might attract more bandits. Yi Shang Temple is not far from here. We can ask for their help."

Nan Family Head Guard recognized Chu Yue's attire that belonged to one of the high ranking maidservant. He quickly nodded. "I understand. We'll move directly. Those who are wounded, quickly get into the last carriage or be helped by others…"

With that, the guards quickly moved. Some of them rushed first in order to give the report to Yi Shang Temple. If this piece of news spread that Nan Family was attacked right outside Yi Shang Temple, it wouldn't be good for their reputation either.

Nan Hua looked at the group of bandits in front of her. "Kai Family is not a small family without reason."

There was no need for her to interrogate this group of bandits. Only one person who would do something so stupid like this among the enemies who were targeting Nan Family.

She had already investigated some others and knew that they were all mostly big families who had reputation. They would not do something so low such as doing assassination in broad daylight through robbers and bandits.

"Since he's so adamant on making Nan Family as his enemies, wouldn't it be only polite for me to give him a gift?" Nan Hua flicked her finger and a bamboo strip was thrown outside.

In the shadow, Nan Si took the bamboo stick, read the instruction and left once more.

Xiao Yun and Mu Yan were silent. They silently lit a candle for Kai Family because they knew that once Nan Hua had chosen to make her move, there wouldn't be anything left from that family.

In fact, Xiao Yun really wanted to berate Kai Family. That family had a chance to climb the ranks after Nan Hua gave them the chance, but they didn't use it well and try to bite more than what they could chew. No matter how much help Nan Hua gave, it would only give a light slap against Nan Family and not to the point of Kai Family surpassing Nan Family.

Even though Kai Family was already steadily advancing, it was not like their position was completely stable. If they were not careful, there were many people who would see them as nothing more than a lump of meat that was ready to be slaughtered.

Now that they did this, they would never be able to advance.

Nan Hua would not want to let them stay alive.

The next day, Second Young Master Kai would wake up with a lot of corpses being left in his room and ended up with nightmare all days.

In addition, the complaint report was filled by Nan Family Head Guard. Some of the surviving bandits were sent to the authorities to be interrogated. When the investigation was done, it would definitely point towards Kai Family, sealing their fate forever.
