Chapter 907: Mountain Tribe (1)
“Before that, you should tell Grandfather about your plan. I don’t want to be the one to give the report and receive the brunt.” Nan Luo pointed in the direction where their grandfather stayed.
Nan Hua: “…”
Old Master Nan had been staying inside the fortress and barely did any work. It was not like he couldn’t, but he felt that his entire life always revolved around those things, so he wanted some break.
No one could force him to do what he didn’t want to do.
In the end, a lot of people simply gave up directly. They knew that Old Master Nan would definitely not willing to do what they asked him to do, so they left him be.
In any case, his presence alone was enough.
“I’m going.”
Swish!
As Nan Hua left, Nan Luo looked at Nan Hua’s back and sighed. He turned to look at Feng Ao Kuai. “When do you think we can get another promotion?”
Feng Ao Kuai rolled his eyes. “Be patient.”
It would be impossible for them to be promoted so quickly. A lot of people wanted to become a general because of the authority and glory, but at the same time, a general had a huge responsibility.
There was no way a person could be promoted so easily without having any achievement that could back up his promotion.
“There should be better chance when we’re up against Zhang Xu Kingdom.”
Nan Luo’s eyes lit up when he heard that. That was good, then. He would work hard to make sure that he could get promotion as fast as possible.
…
Old Master Nan looked at his granddaughter and rubbed his forehead. If Nan Hua hadn’t told him, he would have spanked this brat for doing something so dangerous. But when Nan Hua told him, he really felt that he didn’t want to let her go.
“Do you have to go personally?”
“Yes.” Nan Hua nodded. The person who led the Mountain Tribe was very powerful and Nan Hua didn’t want to take any risk.
“In that case, memorize this first. This is the names of the previously famous people from all over the kingdoms who are suddenly missing after they enter the Xia Mountains or they are kicked off and then disappear.”
Nan Hua blinked her eyes.
She didn’t think that her grandfather would know about this.
The Mountain Tribes didn’t only consist of people who lived on that mountain from the very beginning. Instead, there were also people who came from either one of the six kingdoms due to some circumstances.
If they were still alive, many of them would be part of the Mountain Tribe by now.
“How do you know about this, Grandfather?” Nan Hua asked as she skimmed through the name list.
“I have my own way.” Old Master Nan scoffed.
It was actually just a coincidence that he encountered his former subordinates at the edge of that mountain many years ago. At that time, his subordinate told him about this matter but asked him to keep it a secret.
There were a lot of people who came to the Mountain Tribe aside from people who already lived there in the tribes. Many of them were actually people from various kingdoms nearby.
They were banished from their former kingdoms or scorned because of some matters. Some of them could move to other kingdoms like General Chi, but many of them didn’t have any other places to live.
Thus, they came to this mountain.
The Mountain Tribe was a place where they could live with a new identity. They didn’t need to worry about meeting anyone who knew about their past and made them face the humiliation and scorn that used to be thrown to their face.
Some of them could live with the shame.
Some of them could endure the humiliation to stand forward once more.
But some others couldn’t do it and chose to change their identity in the Mountain Tribe. Even if their lives ended up becoming even more difficult after they entered the tribe, it was better than having to face a lot of people who kept on judging them.
“Thank you, Grandfather.”
“No need to so polite.” Old Master Nan waved his hand. He looked at his granddaughter, who would turn 15 this year and sighed. If she hadn’t decided to participate in the battlefield, she would have been able to get married by next year and live peacefully in the Capital City.
But she decided to come instead.
Even though he didn’t really want to let her come here and experience everything, Old Master Nan really couldn’t refuse Nan Hua.
“Hua’er.”
Nan Hua raised her head when she heard her grandfather called her with endearment. His gaze looked solemn as he stared straight in her direction.
“Take care.”
Nan Hua looked at her grandfather and replied solemnly, “I will.”
“Good. You can go.”
Nan Hua curtsied then left.
Old Master Nan still sat there, watching as his granddaughter left. There were still some people whom Nan Hua sent to give him report about what she was doing. It was not detailed, but it allowed to know a bit of the force behind Nan Hua.
And the fact is that his granddaughter is someone who was capable of shaking the entire land with just her words and order.
If she truly wanted to, Old Master Nan knew that it wouldn’t be impossible for her to cause a lot of chaos in many areas.
“What’s your goal, Hua’er?” Old Master Nan murmured softly.
If it was only to protect Nan Family, was it really necessary for her to amass such grand power? And he could see that Nan Hua didn’t think that it was enough yet.
What made Nan Hua so worried?
What caused her to think that to be able to survive, she would need so many people and such a large force behind her?
Old Master Nan didn’t know.
But if Nan Hua thinks that it’s necessary… he’ll support her.
