FORGOTTEN LEGEND OF THE BLOODIED FLOWER

Chapter 250 - Reprimanded



Chapter 250 – Reprimanded

"Hua'er!"

It was at this time Feng Ao Kuai managed to find Nan Hua. He was following one of the two routes with hope to be able to see them. It didn't even a quarter of an incense stick of time (15 minutes) yet, but he had found her. Since he managed to find her, it meant that Nan Luo was still roaming around.

"Brother Kuai," Nan Hua called out. She had changed her address to him because of his insistence. He felt that the word cousin was not good enough and asked her to call him with 'brother' when they were not with outsiders.

Feng Ao Kuai nodded then looked at Kuang Shen behind Nan Hua. "Come on, Grandfather is worried about you."

"Mhm."

Nan Hua stared blankly. It has been a long time since she had someone who was worried for her. She had long gotten used to solo mission and do everything by herself. Having someone who cared for her and worried for her was something new in this world.

She shouldn't have made a move by herself.

"Are you hurt?"

"No, I'm not." Nan Hua glanced at the knife in her hand. She had wiped the blood to the assassin's clothes not long ago and currently thinking whether she should discard it or not. Was the investigation prowess in this era amazing?

From what she remembered, it was the complete opposite.

Due to the focus on war, there were a lot of unsolvable case of crimes. Not to mention, there were a lot of assassins roaming in 'free' area like this.

"Good." Feng Ao Kuai then walked to the place where he stood with the other soldiers. After giving them instruction to return, he led Nan Hua through the path that they had opened to chase after the assassins.

Nan Hua glanced into the shadows, knowing that there were two people who were watching her, her cousin, and Kuang Shen from the shadow. Her dark obsidian eyes flickered before she looked away.

When they go back, Old Master Nan looked at Nan Hua in annoyance. "Hua'er, what did I tell you before? You're not allowed to run out without telling me first."

"Sorry, Grandfather."

"Do you know that you're wrong?"

"I'm wrong, Grandfather."

Facing a child who acknowledged her mistake right on the spot, Old Master Nan was even more exasperated. He reached forward and carried the young girl in his arm. He patted her back tenderly. "Don't do that anymore. I don't want you to be in any danger. Do you understand, Hua'er?"

"Yes, Grandfather."

Leaning her body to her grandfather, Nan Hua could sense how warm he was. It was a strange feeling, one that she could not explain with words. She felt as if she was being protected and cared.

Two words that would have never happened in her previous life.

It was strange, yet she didn't dislike it.

While carrying Nan Hua, Old Master Nan looked at Kuang Shen, who was beaten up. Even though he was a bit annoyed after hearing his plight from Traveling Doctor Liu, he couldn't possibly blame the boy for that. It was not like he chose to be born in Kuang Family.

"Go and have rest. Old Liu, I better not heard anything about your disciples involving my granddaughter again."

Traveling Doctor Liu arched his eyebrows. "I'll not stop my disciples from interacting with whoever they want."

Old Master Nan rolled his eyes. He patted Feng Ao Kuai's head. "You did great. Go and have some rest."

"Yes, Grandfather."

Afterwards, Old Master Nan sent the soldiers to call Nan Luo back. Unfortunately, Nan Luo was a bit too quick, so it nearly took two incense sticks time for him to go back and rest. He was in bad mood when he heard that Feng Ao Kuai managed to find Nan Hua first.

Since Feng Ao Kuai was already sleeping and it was late, Nan Luo swore that he would settle this score tomorrow when they woke up.

While the children were resting, Traveling Doctor Liu walked to Kuang Shen and patted his head. "Come here. I'll treat you."

"Mhm." Kuang Shen hung his head low and followed his master. He was obediently staying still in his place and let his master treated him without any word of complaint. Right now, he understood that he was still very weak.

Shan Yu watched from the side. "Fifth Junior is here, Master."

"He can come in… Not sneaking in."

The tent was opened and a man dressed in dark brown clothes walked in slowly. He was tall and lean, giving off the towering impression. It felt as if they had to look up when they were talking with him due to his overwhelming height. His aged face would make it feel that he was already so old.

"Master," the man greeted.

Traveling Doctor Liu nodded. "Did you get anything from the assassins?"

"They only say that they're sent by Huan Family. However, they didn't know the specific." The man furrowed his eyebrows.

"You can rest if you want, Ah Xi."

"No, Master."

Kuang Shen looked at his fifth senior curiously. He rarely saw the other party because he would often stay in the darkness and unwilling to even show his face. What Kuang Shen knew was that his name was Yu Zheng Xi and that he came from other kingdoms, far away from here.

He didn't even understand why Yu Zheng Xi become Traveling Doctor Liu's disciple when the man didn't seem to be willing to learn that much about medicine. What he did was simply protecting them from the darkness.

"Junior Brother, do you want to stay here?" Shan Yu asked, emphasizing the word 'junior.'

As he had expected, Yu Zheng Xi glared at him and spat coldly, "No."

Shan Yu was amused. "You know that you look even older with that beard. If you stay with Master, you can get some medicine that can preserve your youth."

"I'm older than you, Shan Yu."

"Tsk, just by a few years." Shan Yu shrugged. "Also, I'm still your senior even if you're older than me."

A few years? It was more than a decade.

Yu Zheng Xi snorted then looked at his Master.. "There are some messengers who want to meet you, Master."
