FORGOTTEN LEGEND OF THE BLOODIED FLOWER

Chapter 288 - The Training Grounds



Chapter 288 – The Training Grounds

Nan San: "…"

Why did he get insulted when he was just asking?

However, he understood that this plan was indeed feasible. If it was discovered and failed, it meant that the mistake lies on him.

Nan Hua stood up. She looked at the dancers. Back in Heng Xing City, the assassins were a combination of both men and women. But in Wind City, she could see that the majority of the elites were the women.

"Show me your training room."

"Yes, Miss."

The dancers were still feeling a bit indignant about their new allocated job, but they obeyed Nan Hua's order. The training room was actually their practice room. All the dancers in this building were assassins without any exception.

Nan Hua's eyes landed on the two girls at the corner of the room.

"Miss, they're the recently new recruits. Because their skills are lacking, they still have to train and couldn't come out yet," one of the dancers explained.

"Nan Si."

Swish!

Nan Si appeared before Nan Hua. He was silently observing from the ceiling all this time and would only appear when he was called. After that, he would simply disappear back to his hiding place.

He disliked crowd and moreover, this was a place with a lot of strangers. He hated it so much.

"Does any of you can defeat him?" Nan Hua looked at the dancers.

The dancers were stunned then shook their head. Because their speed was slower than him and they couldn't detect him, if they had to have a faceoff with Nan Si, they would surely lose miserably.

Nan Hua nodded. "Fight with me in this place, Nan Si."

"Yes, Miss."

Swish!

With that, Nan Si suddenly disappear. He was simply hiding in one of the hidden locations within the room. The room was filled with cloth hanging here and there. There were also a lot of practice equipment lying on the ground.

Nan Hua waved her hand towards the two girls. "Protect them for now."

"Yes, Miss."

The dancers were all moving swiftly. Their number was 14 but their movement was totally in sync. Thanks to their rigorous training, they could easily surpass other people in terms of coordination alone.

Nan Hua nodded then her body moved almost instantly.

In the shadow, Nan Si was stunned. He was about to make a move but he sensed danger and quickly turn his body around.

Clang!

The two daggers met in the middle, producing loud metallic sound.

Nan Si's eyes widened as he swiftly retreated. The contact was brief, but it told him the power behind the attack from Nan Hua was not any lower than him. For someone at Nan Hua's stature, it was strength that couldn't be imagined to be wielded.

"Don't look away."

A shadow appeared at Nan Si's side and the dagger was swung once more.

Clang!

Gritting his teeth, Nan Si twisted his body and grabbed the nearby hanging cloth. It was used for the women to practice dancing since sometimes there would be some strange request from the customers. They had to make sure that they would be able to fulfill it and showed the best performance.

Nan Hua grabbed the other one and used to chase after Nan Si.

Clang! Clang!

The two traded blows on top of the cloth. Despite only hanging by the cloth, their attack didn't lessen in fierceness in the slightest bit. In fact, Nan Si felt as if Nan Hua was holding back slightly in order to match his speed.

Slash!

The dagger in Nan Hua's hand cut the cloth, making Nan Si dropped down. The man was forced to somersaulted midair and landed on the ground. He hadn't even had any time to rest when he sensed danger and quickly raised his dagger.

Clang!

Nan Hua had followed him down and used the momentum to land on him. The force caused Nan Si's hand to turn numb.

Swish!

Twisting midair, Nan Hua landed on the ground and her dagger stopped beside Nan Si's neck.

"You should have evaded."

Nan Si was quiet. He knew that Nan Hua was correct, but there was no time for him to evade when he noticed that Nan Hua was coming at him. Because of his delayed reaction, he ended up bearing the brunt of Nan Hua's heavy landing.

"Yes, Miss."

Nan Hua looked at the fallen cloth and stepped closer to figure out the material. Her eyes flashed when she sensed the softness. "Where did you get this material?"

"Mast… I mean Nan San bought it from traveling merchants who come from the north."

"Are there more of the materials?"

"Yes, Nan San keep the leftover in the storage room."

"Bring me a bolt later. You can go now." Nan Hua then looked at the group of dancers at the side.

They were now standing petrified. Most of the time, they were at the passive end when they were facing Nan Si. After all, not a single one of them managed to guess where he was located at.

"Starting tomorrow, every night 7 of you will do mission in accordance to your strength. Split into 3 groups and finish 3 missions each night and you can take 50% of the reward." Nan Hua was silent for a while. "The other seven will continue to do their work in this building and teach those two."

"Yes, Miss."

The two girls were all looking at Nan Hua with their eyes widened. It was clear that they didn't expect that the girl who looked like she was younger than them would be even better than them.

Nan Hua was looking at the two of them as her mind rotated at high speed. An idea suddenly popped inside her mind.

"What's your name?"

"Xiao Xi."

"Ku."

Xiao Xi?

Hearing the name, Nan Hua was silent. Her mind was in a mess as she clearly remembered that in the original novel, Xiao Xi was the name of the other servant aside from Xiao Yun who would accompany Nan Hua all the time.. Even though there were two other servants, who were Mu Yan and Chu Yue, the two of them were said to usually stay behind and only follow very occasionally.
