Nan Hua was still learning.

Learning how to care for other people and to respond to their affection towards her.

Even though she didn't know whether what she did was correct or not, but Nan Hua was trying her best to make sure that she would be able to answer those who truly cared for her as her family members.

And the thing that she knew how to respond to her grandfather was to let her watch over her. Even though Nan Hua knew that she could take care of herself well, she still allowed him to know what she was planning to do and part of her forces.

That way, he wouldn't be so worried.

As Nan Luo and Feng Ao Kuai were preparing to leave, Nan Hua was taking the detour towards Zhang Xu Kingdom's area. The Xia Mountains were still bordering Wei Da Kingdom, so it wouldn't take long.

As for her people whom she had sent from Dark Moon Organization to Wei Da Kingdom?

She would pay a visit sometime in the future…

Nan Hua really didn't have much time for Wei Da Kingdom as she knew that Wei Da Kingdom didn't have much attraction. In addition, she really didn't want to swim in the river again.

With her short height, it was really uncomfortable.

Edge of Xia Mountains' West Area

"It's already the third day."

Sitting on the tree, Fei Mao sighed while looking at the sky. It was not like he wanted to stay here for a long time, but he received an order from Nan Hua to come here.

As the master right hand *cough* I meant errand boy, he had to be there wherever Nan Hua wanted him to be. If he dared to go against Nan Hua even once, he was sure that he wouldn't be able to survive in the slightest bit.

Because of that, he decided to just follow whatever Nan Hua ordered him to do.

For the past three days, he had been waiting here because Nan Hua said that she wanted him to come and bring a supplies of needles, herbs, and also daggers. It seemed that Nan Hua must have been using those weapons from time to time when she was at the battlefield and needed more.

Fei Mao looked at the distance, wondering when Nan Hua would finally come.

"Hand me the bag."

Hearing the sudden voice, Fei Mao was stunned. He looked down and saw Nan Hua standing beside the tree with an expressionless face as usual. Without delaying, Fei Mao jumped down and handed the bag to Nan Hua.

"Young Miss, everything you asked are here."

"Mhm."

Nan Hua checked the content then took some to be slipped under her sleeves while she carried the rest. She turned to look at Fei Mao. "Go back and don't follow me."

"Yes, Miss."

Fei Mao really wanted to ask where Nan Hua wanted to go when he saw the other party walked towards the mountain behind him. His mouth opened a bit before closing it again.

The reason why Nan Hua wanted him to bring the resources near this place was because she wanted to pay a visit to the people here, right?

Now Fei Mao knew why Nan Hua didn't allow him to come.

Even Nan Hua herself might not be able to escape unscathed if she was not careful enough when coming to this mountain.

'Is she planning to…'

Fei Mao gulped down when he realized the thoughts that crossed in his mind. If that was true, it meant that the entire Xia Mountains' area would be under Nan Hua's hand. The total force for those all were not small.

It could even form a new kingdom if she wanted to.

Not wanting to delve deeper into his imagination, Fei Mao swiftly ran towards the direction where he came from. He didn't want to court death yet.

Swish!

Passing through the bushes, Nan Hua could clearly sense that she was not alone here. In fact, there were several people in the darkness who were on guard.

Yet, not a single one of them noticed her.

This situation brought her back to the time when she had to do her mission and training. To be able to pass through even the most tightly guarded place was something that they were trained to do.

No matter how perfect the place looked like, there were always some kind of loophole that they could exploit as long as they had the necessary skill.

Nan Hua walked through the bushes and trees.

The areas here were not much different from the middle part where she usually paid a visit and stayed during her time in Dark Moon Organization. The terrain was quite similar and it was also a natural fortress.

'A maze.'

That was what people who entered this lush forest on the mountain would think when they noticed the road in front of them. After all, the trees all looked the same and the sun's position was often blocked by the trees.

If they only follow the road, they would realize that they kept on encountering dead end that would only make things difficult for them to pass.

But Nan Hua knew the faint differences on the ground.

The marks on the branches, ground, and all told her very clearly the route that most people usually take. Those impossible routes were quickly eliminated by Nan Hua as she continued to pass through the routes.

No wonder the Mountain Tribe was able to settle here firmly.

'But this small traps would be nothing in front of a truly powerful general who had deep knowledge of the terrain.'

And that was why this place would turn into a battleground in the original story in a few more months when the battle between Fei Yang Kingdom and Zhang Xu Kingdom were so heated.

They wanted to pull the Mountain Tribe to their sides and another war breaks out in this place.
