Forgotten Legend of the Bloodied Flower

Clang! Clang!

Dai looked at his young master helplessly, feeling that it was truly his bad luck to be assigned with Feng Ao Si. He could only arrange for the people behind them to move forward bit by bit while still holding their shield.

They had to reach the wall as soon as possible.

Swish! Swish! Swish!

Standing on top of the wall, River General Kui watched as these new people whom Prince Wei Da Yong brought up began to shoot arrows. These proud young masters were all useless in the face of real battle.

At this moment, even River General Kui began to doubt that the military academy was utterly useless to cultivate these youngsters.

Did they come to the academy to learn or to play?

However, River General Kui didn’t say anything and only signaled for his men to back up Prince Wei Da Yong. No matter what, the person beside him is still a prince, so River General Kui had to obey the other party’s order.

For now, let’s just use these meat shields.

“Continue to shoot the arrows!”

“Yes, River General Kui!”

𝒐𝓥𝓵xt.𝗇𝓔t

The soldiers were prepared and continued to shoot arrows. The soldiers from Fei Yang Kingdom raised their shield, protecting them from the barrage of arrows shot towards them.

Tak! Tak! Tak!

Bang! Thunk!

The soldiers were falling down, but more soldiers were rushing up. As more and more soldiers reached the top of the wall, the sound of metal clashing could be heard wildly.

Clang! Clang! Clang!

“Nan, I’m going up!” Nan Luo pointed at the stairs.

“I’m first.”

“But they’re….”

Splash!

“AAAAaaaaaaa!”

Not far from them, a soldier fell down because boiling hot water poured down on him, preventing him to go up. The first few people who came up will always get this kind of treatment.

“No one follows me.” Nan Hua’s tone didn’t give Nan Luo any chance to refute as she began to climb up. Her eyes were fixed at the top while examining the wall.

As she had expected, the wall is not perfect.

The architecture in this era really couldn’t be said to be perfect yet because there were a lot of cracks between the rocks. Two knives appeared on Nan Hua’s hand, ready to be used when it was necessary.

“Someone is coming!”

“Pour the hot water!”

Splash!

As the boiling hot water poured down, Nan Hua jerked her body to the side, evading the pouring water and the knife in her hand was perfectly inserted into the holes on the wall. The water landed on the ground, which Nan Luo and his soldiers were already moving away to avoid getting hurt.

Even though boiling hot water was different from fire, they could still cause a considerable amount of burn through skin contact.

Nan Hua lightly swayed her body, returning to the stairs and began to continue climbing. Even when there was no soldier who held the stair below, Nan Hua’s movement was not affected in the slightest bit.

“Where’s the water again? Pour, Pour…Aaaaaaaaaaa!”

The knife in Nan Hua’s hand was thrown straight to the man’s eyes. With a leap, Nan Hua arrived at the top and looked at the soldiers around her. Their gazes filled with fear entered her eyes as she began to move.

Slash! Slash! Slash!

Within moments, more than 10 soldier around the stair had fallen down.

“Climb up now,” Nan Hua gave her order loudly to the people behind her.

“YES!” Nan Luo felt his heart was boiling when he watched Nan Hua’s performance. The height of Wei Da Kingdom’s Capital City wall was not that high because this was an old city. There haven’t been many renovations done because it was not easy to change a wall’s height after building it once.

This was what caused the stairs they used to reach the top of the wall easily.

As Nan Luo climbed up, he vowed to himself that he will get stronger and stronger so that he could do the same as Nan Hua. That movement was simply amazing and certainly not something that ordinary people will be able to replicate in their entire life.

But he knew that if the wall were to be higher, Nan Hua would have to repeat the same process several times. The closer she is to the top, the more dangerous it would be because the reaction time given would be shorter.

Oh well, that was for future problem.

For now, he just needed to settle the soldiers.

Swish! Slash!

As Nan Luo reached the top, he was greeted with the sight of several bodies fallen to the ground and Nan Hua stood not far from the stair as if guarding it. He smiled faintly. “Leave the rest to me.”

Nan Hua nodded.

She sheathed her sword back and watched as Nan Luo began his rampage to kill these soldiers from Wei Da Kingdom. And behind Nan Luo, more and more Fei Yang Kingdom’s soldiers under him climb up and fill the area, killing the soldiers from Wei Da Kingdom.

Bang!

At the back, Feng Ao Si watched Nan Hua’s spectacular performance and somehow recalled the time when he was scalded by water yesterday. He then turned to look at Dai and began to feel that things were unfair.

“Why can’t Grandfather prepare an adjutant as great as Nan for me?”

Dai: “…” excuse me?

He knew that Feng Ao Si was jealous and respect Nan Hua because of what he had seen, but his words were somewhat insulting when it reached Dai’s ear. He looked in the direction of Nan and shook his head slightly.

Comparing a mortal like him to a master like Nan Hua… he would never dare to.

When the difference between people was small, people would feel jealous and indignant. But if the gap was so big that it was impossible to catch up, only reverence was left and that was precisely what Dai felt when he saw Nan Hua.

He respected her and knew that he would never be able to reach her height.
