Forgotten Legend of the Bloodied Flower

Chapter 271 – Information

"Yes."

Travelling Doctor Liu didn't need to conceal anything. Because of his visit to the Feng Family not long ago, he would be lying if he said that he didn't notice anything strange. Thus, he was worried that it would affect them in the long term.

Chen Yuan played with the bamboo flute in her hand. "Feng Family is expanding too rapidly. Their foundation is weak."

"You mean…"

"They're not careful enough and might be used by others." Chen Yuan was calm.

Listening to the way Chen Yuan was talking, Nan Hua was sure that Chen Yuan must have come from a noble family. Her temperament, way of speaking, and graceful movement told her that she must have come from a rather powerful family.

Why she ended this way or why she was even here was truly a mystery.

"Hua'er, since you're living with the Feng Family, it'll be better if you can be more careful.

  Shan Yu looked at his junior sister worriedly.

Nan Hua blinked her eyes. "I'll pay attention, Senior Brother Shan."

Chen Yuan chuckled. "If you ever feel bored with your training, you may come here, Junior Sister Hua. This place might be different from where you usually live, but it can help you to learn many things."

"Many thanks for your kindness, Senior Sister Chen."

Kuang Shen listened and pursed his lips. For some reason, he felt that he was being left out by their conversation.

"If they're weak, why do you say that Wind City will stay strong?" Kuang Shen couldn't help but ask.

However, Chen Yuan didn't answer. She didn't seem to be willing to give answer as her gaze was staring at the front, yet her pupil didn't focus at all. It was as if what she saw was not the present but the future.

That was the feeling Chen Yuan gave off when she was staring into a distance like this.

"Does Lin Family has any relationship with Feng Family?" Traveling Doctor Liu asked a different question.

Chen Yuan glanced at her master and played with the flute in her hand. "Lin Family is from Zhang Xu Kingdom. Fei Yang Kingdom will enter a political marriage with Zhang Xu Kingdom soon."

Kuang Shen was stunned. "Wait, how come I didn't know about this?"

"This has only been decided not long ago." Shan Yu looked at Kuang Shen and laughed faintly. "Junior Sister Chen is a bit special."

Special?

For some reason Kuang Shen began to feel that his senior sister was a bit creepy. Was she really learning medicine under Traveling Doctor Liu and not methods to listen to news from thousands of miles away?

Traveling Doctor Liu felt like face palming when he saw Kuang Shen's expression. "Yuan'er have her own forces."

Did he really think that Chen Yuan was living by herself here?

It would be impossible for her to live by herself. No matter how self-sustainable she usually was, there were a lot of helpers who helped her to be able to live her life peacefully in this village.

However, they would not appear.

Not in front of others.

"Master, you're exaggerating."

Traveling Doctor Liu sighed. "I'll teach you some recipes later. Come here and let me check on your eyes."

"There's no need." Chen Yuan lowered her head. "You have already checked years ago, Master."

"There might be a method for you to earn your vision after I have already learnt more." Traveling Doctor Liu was not one to easily gave up. It was one of his life goals to be able to cure Chen Yuan's eyes. Even though it has been more than a decade since he first met her and set this goal, he had never forgotten.

Chen Yuan was obedient as she let her Master checked on her.

Nan Hua was looking at the pupil of her senior sister as her brain tried to think of this situation. It was hard for her to get as close as her master, but she could see that her Master was already furrowing his eyebrows when he saw it.

There were many condition that could result in blindness.

'if it's about the nerve, there's possibility of recovery through surgery.'

But surgery in this place?

Nan Hua was not a surgeon, so she couldn't possibly hope that she would be able to cure her senior sister. After thinking for a bit, Nan Hua chose not to say anything and just watched from the side.

She didn't mind helping Kuang Shen because her master already knew about her martial arts skill.

But she couldn't leak out the fact that she knew medicine that was not supposed to exist in this time period.

"Your eyes are really…. difficult." Traveling Doctor Liu sighed and couldn't help but move back. He looked at the young woman in front of him with pity.

Chen Yuan smiled, not expecting much. "I know, Master."

"We wouldn't impose on you any longer. You must be quite busy." Shan Yu stood up.

Kuang Shen's lips twitched. He was pretty sure that Chen Yuan was doing nothing more than staring into the distance when they came here. How come that his senior brother said that Chen Yuan was busy?

But of course he was not tactless enough so as to mention it so openly.

"I would like for Junior Sister Hua to stay behind for a while."

"Hua'er?"

Nan Hua looked Chen Yuan and nodded. "I'll stay behind."

"In that case I'll leave first. Also, don't stay out for too long. If your grandfather come to look at me, I'll pretend that I know nothing," Traveling Doctor Liu reminded. He didn't want that old man to bother him.

Shan Yu's lips twitched when he heard that. He could only silently shook his head in his mind as he felt that his master really didn't care for his image in the slightest bit.

The three of them walked out of the small hut.

Nan Hua calmly sat on her seat, looking in Chen Yuan's direction while wondering about what she wanted to say.

"Junior Sister Hua, do you know the rules Master set for his disciples?"
