Forgotten Legend of the Bloodied Flower

Three months passed by quietly.

Nan Hua had her birthday in the early winter, so she had turned 14 years old.

It was now the end of Winter and snow started to melt after piling up at a considerable amount for the past few weeks.

They were in the south, so the snow was not that much but it still painted the ground in beautiful white color.

Clang! Clang! Clang!

"Use more strength!" Si Mo Fan yelled from the side. "If you don't use any strength, you will keep on getting pushed back."

Hui Ling pursed his lips and exerted more strength in his attack. However, he still couldn't properly use his strength as he was being pushed back. In the end, a kick landed on his stomach as he was sent flying to the back.

In front of him, Nan Hua was still as calm as ever. She sparred with Hui Ling quite a few times during the past few months in order to train him. In the beginning, she needed to adjust herself since his attack was quite fast and her body didn't manage to react in time for all of them.

But now, there was no chance for Hui Ling to even touch the tip of her hair.

"You're getting faster, Young Miss." Si Mo Fan sighed in amazement. He couldn't understand how Nan Hua was capable of growing stronger and stronger even though she was already so strong.

Nan Hua played with her dagger and only nodded briefly. She knew that she was getting closer to her own strength that she had in her original timeline. Probably, it would take her another two to three years to be able to fully reach her peak like before.

The medicine that she used was different.

Added with the fact that this body's foundation was not formally formed, it made her had to train harder.

"I'll still get stronger."

And after reaching a certain point, her growth would start to slow down.

Normally people would reach their peak of their physical condition in their twenties. Some people even reached it when they were in their thirties.*

'Even when I died back then, I still hadn't reached my peak.'

How laughable.

Even if she did reach her peak, Nan Hua actually doubted that she would be able to overcome that avalanche. Comparing human to nature… would be a very unfair fight. There were some technologies that human had made to help them face the natural disaster, but there was nothing they could actually do to prevent them.

Ji Han Yu twitched his lips. "I believe that."

He was absolutely certain that Nan Hua would still continue to become very strong because even now, he had seen her rapid growth. For the past few weeks, he had been wondering whether the two people in front of him were monsters or youngsters.

When he was younger, he believed that he was not as much of a freak as the two of them.

"You're also still very strong, Leader Ji."

"Heh, of course!"

Ji Han Yu snorted. He would challenge anyone who dared to say that he had deteriorate. Even though he knew that his physical condition might not be the same as when he was still younger, he was still capable of beating a lot of people.

Those who dared to challenge him had to be prepared for his brutal beating.

"Young Miss, it'll be Spring in a week's time. Are you going to participate in the war?" Ji Han Yu asked.

Si Mo Fan had told him that Jun Hua wouldn't stay in the base for a long period of time. And after he had settled the tribes with her, Si Mo Fan was quite busy with the aftermath deals.

It was also good that the two of them didn't have to do anything aside from training here.

Nan Hua nodded. "You should go to Wei Da Kingdom. I'm leaving today."

"Okay."

Ji Han Yu sighed.

On the other hand, Si Mo Fan rolled his eyes. He had enough of having this freeloader occupying this place.

"Miss… is leaving?" Hui Ling asked. His clothes were dirty with the dust, but he looked far healthier compared to the time when he was in the West Valley.

Nan Hua nodded.

"You go with Ji Han Yu and follow him. This time, I would like to begin branching towards Shi Long Kingdom."

Hui Ling looked at Ji Han Yu and the latter also stared back. The two of them didn't really want to have anything to do with each other.

"Anything else?"

"There's someone you should find." Nan Hua thought that it should be the time for that person to make his appearance. Even though he seemed to have not much of a role in the war, what happened to him would trigger violent chain reaction.

Nan Hua wanted to avoid it if possible.

As it would put Fei Yang Kingdom in danger.

"Who?"

Instead of saying a name, Nan Hua passed a bamboo strip that she had prepared before. Before the war between Fei Yang Kingdom and Zhang Xu Kingdom, this person was hiding deep in the remote areas.

There was no way Nan Hua could find him unless she had a large amount of force in Zhang Xu Kingdom.

Sora's Corner:

You can train your body to its very peak condition, but the time of peak's condition for everyone is different. Some of them reach earlier but some others can be late. The majority is usually between their twenties to their thirties. It was also because of this that many athletes will retire when they're in their thirties. (or even in their forties if they're very fit, but I believe it's very very rare)

Their physical condition had started to deteriorate and unable to compete with those who are younger.

But of course, you can still maintain your physical condition to be very fit until you're advance in age as long as you have routine training.
