Forgotten Legend of the Bloodied Flower

Long Qian Xing stared at the vast green valley in front of him. Feeling the wind slapping his cheek, he slowly calmed down.

There was no point in brooding over this matter.

He felt shaken when he heard Yu Jin mentioned that name, but he couldn't let himself wallow in self regret or whatever like that. He had to move forward and continued to pursue his dream.

The conflict had only escalated.

How it proceeded from now on would be something that only those who participated could affect. And Long Qian Xing would never let Fei Yang Kingdom lose.

...

<Han Yuan City>

Nan Hua slipped out of the ship before anyone noticed her presence. She didn't really want to meet with the soldiers from Zhang Xu Kingdom and caused chaos in this city. At least, not for the time being.

"Nan Si."

"Yes, Miss."

Nan Si has always been Nan Hua's shadow. In short, he was responsible in cleaning up her traces if she needed or to act when it was unsuitable for her to ack. As for protecting her?

There was really no need.

Comparing their skills alone, Nan Hua had much better skill compared to Nan Si.

This time, Nan Si was following Nan Hua through boarding the other ship. This way, he could still see Nan Hua from a distance but wouldn't interfere with any of her decision directly.

"Stay by my side this time."

"Yes, Miss."

Nan Hua then walked into an empty alley and followed the road. She had gotten the information back then. There was a place here where she would be able to get what she needed.

She stopped in front of a door towards a small tavern.

Knock! Knock! Knock!

Three knocks.

"Yes?"

"The travelers here are a bit tired. Are there still enough empty room for negotiation?"

The door opened and the person inside looked at the two youths in front of him. He frowned and then pointed to the back. "You can go there."

"Thank you."

Nan Hua cupped her fist and then walked. The tavern was small and empty, but it didn't really matter. This tavern was a secret place for them to meet with a man who was capable of transferring people to other areas and gave them proper identity.

Pushing the door to the back, Nan Hua entered a dim room. There was only one person who sat in the middle. He was a fat man with a stick hanging on the corner of his mouth. His face was very ordinary that people wouldn't even have any impression of him when he passed by.

"How did you come here?" the man asked. His voice was a bit hoarse.

Nan Hua was not polite as she directly sat opposite of him while Nan Si stood behind her. "Forest Fire give me information about you."

"Forest Fire?" the man was baffled. He had dealing with that organization for a long period of time and there was never even once they leaked information about him to outsiders. Within just a moment meeting Nan Hua, he knew that she was not part of Forest Fire Organization.

First, there was no way Forest Fire members would act so casually in front of him.

Secondly, the aura and oppressive feeling that this youth leaked in front of him was far from what Forest Fire was capable of.

"Yes."

The man was silent for a moment and then sighed. "You can call me Han Jiang. What do you want?"

"An identity in Zhang Xu Kingdom."

"It's not easy to get..."

Thunk!

A pouch filled with gold ingots was thrown on the table. It was the money that Nan Hua had prepared for this little plan of hers. She needed an identity for the time being because she wished to blend in and got some information.

Rather than roaming around and sneaked here and there, it would be better to have an identity.

That way, she didn't have to overexert herself by hiding all the time.

Hiding in the plain sight was always the best.

Han Jiang stared at the pouch and sighed. "Alright, what identity do you want?"

"You can give anything."

"As long as it's not too excessive, I can give you identity from commoner to noble." Han Jiang looked at Nan Hua calmly. "But of course, if you want to be of high ranking person, you will need to pay more."

"No need, I need an identity as an embroidery girl and he'll act as my servant."

"Embroidery girl?" Han Jiang was speechless.

He had transported a lot of people and built a lot of identity, but this was the first time he met with someone who could fork out so much money to ask for such a low identity. Embroidery girl was just as the name stated, a girl who worked to do embroidery all the time.

And most of them have a rather low income.

With just this fact alone, Han Jiang knew that the person in front of him didn't come to Zhang Xu Kingdom to settle down but for another purpose. But why should he care about that so much?

As long as he could get the money, that was more than enough.

"I can arrange that. What's your name or at least, name that you want to take?"

"I'll be Jun Hua and he'll be Jun Si."

"Anything else? City preferences and..."

Nan Hua told Han Jiang everything that she wanted. It was not really complicated, but what she wanted was a bit specific. It would take time to arrange for transportation and everything considering that it was in the middle of war.

After everything was settled, Han Jiang nodded. "Alright, I'll settle that. For the time being, you can rest at the rooms on the second floor. Don't worry, all of them are clean."

"Good."

It was already the middle of the night. The fact that Han Jiang himself was still awake was already something, so Nan Hua and Nan Si walked to the second floor to rest first.
