Forgotten Legend of the Bloodied Flower

Chapter 621 Victory Celebration (4)

Hearing the unfamiliar name, almost everyone was shocked. At the same time, they were astounded because this was an adjutant of a mere 300 men commander. That was such a low ranking commander and yet, he managed to bypass the defense line of a River General?

That was truly a great feat.

Nan Luo was dumbfounded. He turned to look at Feng Ao Kuai. “This… Nan’s nobility rank is higher than me?”

Feng Ao Kuai didn’t answer and merely patted Nan Luo’s back. He had already guessed as much when he heard that Long Qian Xing asked Nan Hua to enter the main hall. Normally, the adjutants of low ranked commanders would be told to wait outside in order not to disturb the ceremony and caused the entire hall to be full.

But Nan Hua was allowed inside.

Thus, Feng Ao Kuai guessed that Nan Hua’s achievement of wounding River General Kui would definitely be mentioned.

It would be a lie if he said that he was not jealous, but he knew his capabilities well. If he tried to do something like that Nan Hua, even if the chance was there, he would not be able to escape unscathed.

And the only reason Nan Hua was able to do this was because River General Kui was not really a good martial artist. At least, compared to many other generals and commanders, River General Kui was placed at the very bottom. It was at the level that was easy to handle for Nan Hua.

Thus, it created this so called miracle.

”Me?”

Nan Hua was the most surprised among them all. She didn’t really have formal military rank because she was basically only pointed by Nan Luo to become his adjutant. But now that she was given real military ranking, it meant that she could build an army on her own if she wanted to.

”Adjutant Nan, please come forward,” the minister swept his gaze across the hall. Even he felt shocked when he read the content. Who would have thought that a small adjutant would be able to achieve so much?

Nan Hua slowly stepped forward from her position at the side. She could sense that everyone’s gaze landed on her. Many of them were scrutinizing her. Shock, disbelief, doubt, and many other emotions were evoked from these people around her.

”He’s… a kid, right?”

”I think so…”

”Even my son is bigger than him.”

The commanders whispered among each other. Many of them were feeling envious when they saw Nan Hua’s small stature. Nan Hua was not any taller than Nan Luo and even her built was a bit more slender as long as she didn’t wear an armor.

Thus, it gave off the impression that she was young and weak.

Emperor Yang Zhou was also looking at Nan Hua carefully. He had seen Nan Luo before and he had to admit that this Adjutant Nan was extremely similar to Nan Luo. Even though Nan Hua was wearing a silver mask, the way she walked and her body language showed just how similar they were.

Of course, the others didn’t know that she and Nan Luo were twins.

And Nan Hua had specifically learned how to walk like her twin brother in case it was necessary for her to pretend to be him.

When Nan Hua arrived before Emperor Yang Zhou, Nan Hua knelt on one knee. She didn’t dare to look at the emperor before her and bowed her head in accordance.

”You did well, Adjutant Nan. Keep up the good work.”

”I will, Your Majesty.”

Nan Hua stretched her hand and took the scroll. It was also at this time Emperor Yang Zhou noticed the small and fair hand. His eyes narrowed slightly. It was really not like the hand of a soldier who was capable of killing a general.

’An assassin?’

For a moment, Emperor Yang Zhou felt that Old Master Nan was quite brave to be using someone like this so close to Nan Luo. But upon thinking of how the young kid had to fare because of the numerous enemies from Old Master Nan’s recklessness in the past along with Nan Shu Cheng’s not so much liked personality, Emperor Yang Zhou could understand.

Nan Hua held the golden colored scroll in her hand as she silently walked back to her original position. Looking at the scroll, Nan Hua knew that this was only given during big wars towards the outstanding soldiers who performed exceedingly well.

’To think that there’ll be a day for me to get such merit.’

It was not Nan Hua first time entering military.

Back in her original world, she had already entered military for a period of time but didn’t manage to achieve anything. Aside from assassinating her target then flee.

So, Nan Hua didn’t expect that she would be able to get such reward when she came to this world.

For some reason…

It felt good.

”The Nan Family is going to rise again,” one of the commanders lamented in a low voice.

”With Young Commander Nan’s ability, it would take a few more years before he could fully showcase his full ability.” Another commander was filled with jealousy.

”If I can have such adjutant by my side…”

”People’s luck really couldn’t be compared.”

These people were all lamenting that the Nan Family was going to rise again in Nan Luo’s hand. Back in the past, they had seen how disappointing Nan Shu Cheng was and that the young man finally took the official path. He was quite successful so far, but it was far from the glamorous time when Great General Nan shook the entire battlefield.

Thus, they thought that the Nan Family would only become average in the future.

But with Nan Luo’s appearance, some began to be skeptical. And Adjutant Nan’s achievement only made them wonder just how the Nan Family’s luck could be so big? They already have a promising commander and now his adjutant was even more powerful?

Their heart ached just from the thoughts.
