Forgotten Legend of the Bloodied Flower

Winter?

Yan Xi's eyes lit up when she heard that Nan Hua would stay during Winter. While the Winter itself would only last for three months, it was already good enough that Nan Hua wanted to spend her time here.

"Will you stay with me for dinner?" Yan Xi asked expectantly.

Nan Hua glanced at Yan Xi. For some reason, she felt that Yan Xi was very similar to Nan Si Qiao. The two of them were always trying to take care of her while maintaining their distance so that they would not cross the limit.

It was… nice.

"For today, yes."

"That's great!" Yan Xi naturally knew that Nan Hua must have some business she wanted to settle during Winter. The Winter in Fei Yang Kingdom was not as severe as it was at the north, but there was still some snow.

Occasionally.

Well, most of the time, there were snow. It was not heavy snow, but they could still play with it.

It was still autumn at this time, so snow hadn't fallen yet despite the temperature dropping slowly but surely.

Looking at the young girl who carried the basket effortlessly, Yan Xi felt that whatever happened to Nan Hua's father was his well-deserved repercussion. For him to force such a young girl to mature so fast… she really wanted to torture him to death and not letting him off so easily like that.

Though, Nan Hua had already caused troubles for him and torture him mentally by pushing him up and down for several months.

Well, that was not something she would spread outside.

"Oh right, since you're here, Leader Xi said that she wants to meet with you again. At the same time, she wants to discuss about her stepdaughter who's in charge of taking care of the ordinary mission."

"Are there any problems?"

"She reported that the one who hold the token is someone with the name Lou and not Long Qian Xing."

Lou.

Nan Hua naturally knew that he was one of the few people who had worked under Long Qian Xing for a long period of time. He was mostly in charge of undercover matter, which might be the reason why he was the one who ended up contacting the Dark Moon Organization.

No wonder Long Qian Xing could get that token.

He was using his men.

That cunning man.

Yan Xi glanced at Nan Hua as they reached her home. "That's why Leader Xi wanted to ask you whether it's allowed to accumulate merit that way and that the token is used by other people instead."

"It's fine. Lou is Long Qian Xing's men and will work for him." Nan Hua put the basket on the counter. "Do you need help cooking?"

"Can you wash and peel the tomatoes? Ah, not all of them, just a few will do. There are only three people eating."

"Okay."

Nan Hua helped to wash and peel the potatoes easily. Looking at the thinly peeled potato, Yan Xi was a bit speechless.

For some reason, she felt that Nan Hua's knife skill was so excellent. There was almost no waste of the potatoes from the skin.

Even after learning how to cook for so many years, Yan Xi was not sure that she was better than Nan Hua.

Forget it.

She would not bother with it.

That night, Yan Xi got the biggest surprise after dinner when Si Mo Fan told her about Nan Hua's plan to become 'Jun Hua' and also the fact that she had become their adopted daughter.

"Wil that be fine?" Yan Xi was surprised.

Si Mo Fan looked at his wife bitterly. "Do you think I can go against her?"

Yan Xi was silent.

The answer would be impossible. Si Mo Fan's martial arts and skill was far lower than Nan Hua. Added with the fact that Nan Hua had already trained her stamina, she would last longer and by that time, Si Mo Fan would be beaten to pulp.

Even if he was the acting leader of Dark Moon Organization, he had no confidence that he would be able to defeat Nan Hua.

Seeing his wife was silent, Si Mo Fan was speechless.

It was one thing for him to know his place, but seeing his wife was also having such a low confidence on him dealt a blow in his pride.

"Anyway, you always want a daughter… You can treat her as one in front of others. But do make sure not to cross the line."

"I know what I'm doing." Yan Xi rolled her eyes. "Don't worry, I'll make sure that I do what's appropriate."

…

The next day, the branch leader from Wei Da had arrived.

In fact, he rushed over overnight when he heard that the leader wanted to meet with him. Even though he knew that there was someone who lead the Dark Moon Organization aside from Si Mo Fan, he had never met with the other party.

Now that the chance was here, he was a bit anxious.

Who would that person be?

"You're early." Si Mo Fan looked at the man in front of him and nodded his head.

A man in middle age stood there. Dressed in completely black robe, he looked rather menacing and seemed to be hard to interact with. At least, that was the impression that people got when they saw him.

His sharp eyes landed on Si Mo Fan as he asked, "Where's the leader?"

"Aren't you seeing the leader in front of you." Si Mo Fan scoffed. He really wanted to smack this leader.

Many of them were actually more or less as capable as him. It was through some negotiation that he managed to become the leader of Dark Moon Organization main branch.

The man, Leader Ji, snorted. "Do you think I want to acknowledge a person like you as the leader if not because of the persuasion of others?"

Crack!

Si Mo Fan felt like his veins cracked when he talked with Leader Ji. He really wanted to deliver a punch to this person's face.

Just one is enough.
