Forgotten Legend of the Bloodied Flower

Chapter 853: No…Way….

Chapter 853: No…Way….

Kuang Shen couldn't believe this.     

He had only met with Nan Hua a few days earlier in Long Family Residence. As much as he didn't like the Nan Family, it didn't mean that he wanted his junior sister to die. She was not the one who was wrong in his matter.     

But now…     

Tell him, was it a mistake for him to destroy the Nan Family?     

All he wanted to do was to avenge his parents and other clan members who lost their lives because of Nan Shu Cheng.     

But he never wanted to lose his junior sister.     

Thud!     

Crouching on the ground, Kuang Shen was trying hard to sort his emotion. He was not close to Nan Hua, but it was impossible not to care after spending a lot of time learning with Nan Hua. Not to mention, Nan Hua practically save his life back then.     

He had thought that it would be fine for Nan Hua even if the Nan Family was destroyed. But why did things didn't go in accordance to what he wanted?     

"Ha…ha….ha…"     

Even though he was laughing, tears streamed down from his eyes. Kuang Shen crouched on the ground, covering his face. He definitely couldn't show this appearance to anyone. How shameful would it be for him if he were to show his crying face to others?     

A man shouldn't cry.     

At least, that was what his parents taught him.     

"Junior Sister Hua… I'm sorry…"     

He never wanted things to end this way. All he wanted was to avenge his parents because he wouldn't be able to stay calm to see his parents' murderer living well.     

"Master…. I'm sorry."     

Kuang Shen had already known that Traveling Doctor Liu treasured all of them. He didn't want either one of them to die before him, so he always rebuked them when they did things recklessly.     

There was only one disciple who had died back then.     

Even though it was time before Kuang Shen become Traveling Doctor Liu's disciple, he had heard of this matter from Shan Yu. Traveling Doctor Liu become angry and so devastated when he learned of his disciple's death.     

Now, there was another one who died.     

And he had contributed to this…     

Tell him, how should he tell his Master?     

Kuang Shen didn't know how long time passed when he finally had his emotion under control. He sighed and then picked up the firewood in front of him.     

"Senior Brother Kuang? Have you gathered the firewood?" Luo Qing Wei was stunned when she saw her senior brother. Even though he acted as if nothing had happened, she could see that his clothes were crumpled.     

As someone who was forced to train in martial arts, Kuang Shen should have better control of his movement and would not be so careless.         

"Yes, I have."     

Luo Qing Wei looked at Kuang Shen with narrowed eyes. "Senior Brother Kuang, what happened?"     

"It's nothing."     

"Senior Brother Kuang?"     

"There are just some incidents... It's not safe here, so let's pick up the pace tomorrow, okay?" Kuang Shen looked at Luo Qing Wei and forced a smile. He didn't want to make this little girl worry so much.     

Luo Qing Wei pouted. "Senior Brother Kuang, stop hiding things from me. You wouldn't be this way if it's a normal danger."     

"That's…"     

It took Kuang Shen some time before he could coax Luo Qing Wei. He had promised Nan Hua to keep her identity as Traveling Doctor Liu's disciple a secret from Luo Qing Wei. Even though he didn't know why, he decided to follow her arrangement.     

After Luo Qing Wei rested, Kuang Shen sighed and looked at the sky. He hoped that Long Qian Xing would not chase him for this.     

That man was dangerous.     

And if Long Qian Xing truly took revenge to him because of Nan Hua, Kuang Shen knew very well that he was not a match against him. He looked at Luo Qing Wei and silently vowed to himself that he would make sure that she was safe first.     

At the same time, Kuang Shen didn't want to get embroiled in the battle against Fei Yang Kingdom. He was not part of any of the kingdom and losing his junior sister struck him hard.     

'I promise that I'll never try to harm Fei Yang Kingdom as much as possible and stay away from the battle.'     

It was now he realized that Traveling Doctor Liu's decision not to participate in any of the battles was because he knew that it would be hard for him. If he had to go against any of his disciples, he might not be able to do things properly.     

Though, he had heard that it did happen but Traveling Doctor Liu still did his duty as a doctor well.     

…     

After a night of rest, Empress Xiao felt much calmer. She looked at the maidservants in front of her and asked quietly, "Has the investigation finished?"     

"Yes, Great General Nan is not charged with any crime…."     

As Empress Xiao listened to the word her maidservants said, her eyes narrowed slightly. There were still quite a lot of women who had some relationship to the said families and it was hard to touch them after they had been married away.     

Only a few were left.     

But it was good enough for her.     

"There'll be a banquet soon to celebrate a marquis' three months old's son." Empress Xiao chuckled. "Assign me a seat there."     

"Yes, Your Highness."     

Empress Xiao felt that those people were really stupid. She thought that she had made it clear that she saw Nan Hua as a person close to her, but they still tried to harm her as much as possible.         

How ridiculous.     

She knew that Nan Family is powerful and whoever offended them would not end well. These people were practically digging their own grave when they touched the switch that should have never been touched for their entire life.     

Empress Xiao thought about her own family and sighed.     

She couldn't make her action too obvious, but she could at least vent her own anger and displeasure in another way.     

While the pieces of news were still circulating heavily, Old Master Nan make the decision to leave the Capital City.     

He looked at Nan Hua, who was dressed as Nan, and Feng Ao Kuai, who followed him along with his soldiers.     

"Are you going to Heng Xing City with me?"     

"Yes."     

Feng Ao Kuai also nodded.     

Old Master Nan sighed. "Don't you have a lot to do at your post? I'm sure that Nan Luo is not going to rest easy until he heard the news."     

"Ah… Nan had already sent the letter, right?"     

Nan Hua nodded. The very first letter she sent was to Nan Luo in order to tell him that she was still alive. The other letter was directed towards Traveling Doctor Liu so that he wouldn't be worried for her safety and the rumors.     

If he decided to come to the Capital City of Fei Yang Kingdom because of her, she would feel bad.     

"Let's go."     

The incident had only happened yesterday, so Old Master Nan knew that a lot of people would talk about this matter for a long period of time. It was also because of this that he didn't know what he was supposed to do when seeing so many people looking at him.     

The decision he made?     

Directly ignore them.     

Old Master Nan led the soldiers outside the Capital City.     

Nan Hua followed not far from Old Master Nan while riding her own horse. Her body was small, but she still knew the basic of horse riding and had learned how to do it for a long period of time by now.     

Besides, she knew that she wouldn't get any bigger from this.     

It was already pretty good for her. Though, it would do her good if she could pick horse that was not so big.     

"Grandfather, the post is supposed to be close…" Feng Ao Kuai's face turned dark when he saw the horse riding group that was approaching them. Even from this distance, he could see that they were Nan Luo and the others.     

Old Master Nan's face was even darker. He sighed and stopped his horse before stretching his hand to the side.     

Hou Lin swiftly put a rock on Old Master Nan's hand.     

Swish!         

Bletak!     

The stone hit Nan Luo's helmed squarely. The force might not be Old Master Nan's full power, but it was enough to make Nan Luo nearly fell of the horse.     

"You dumbass!"     

"G…Grandpa…" Nan Luo was rubbing his read forehead. He knew that if he didn't wear a helmet today, his grandfather would not hit his forehead. However, if he didn't wear it, Xiao Yan would nag on him.     

"Come here, you dumb rascal! Do you want to make me die out of anger?" Old Master Nan was fuming.     

Feng Ao Kuai was silent as he watched from the side as Old Master Nan dragged Nan Luo to the nearby forest, which covered the two of them from the sight of others. And then the wailing from Nan Luo could be heard from miles away.
