Forgotten Legend of the Bloodied Flower

1108 Low Key

Nan Luo’s eyes flashed with surprise.

“Many thanks for this favor, Second Young Miss Wei.”

“It’s nothing much.”

Wei Mu Qing curtsied and then turned around. Since she was done with this matter, she would return to see her older sister in case the other party was worried about her. She really felt like telling her older sister not to treat her like a kid, but her words always landed on deaf ears.

Watching the young lady walked away, Nan Luo’s eyes subconsciously followed her movements. Even though the other party was much younger than him, he felt that she had bearing and intelligence that far surpassed her age.

“Second Young Miss Wei.”

“Yes?” Wei Mu Qing stopped.

“Do you mind if I ask you the reason for your willingness to hide this matter?”

Wei Mu Qing chuckled lightly and turned her head but not her body, she showed a sweet smile on her face. “My father said that Adjutant Nan is a great person. After I see her for myself, I have to agree with his words. Life is already hard enough with war still raging on outside, why should I make it difficult by making more enemies?”

.....

After that, Wei Mu Qing scurried out.

However, Nan Luo stood rooted on the spot. The corner of his lips curled up to form a faint smile.

Right.

Why should one try to make more enemies when they could earn the other party’s favor instead? Only a stupid person would try to make more enemies of other people.

She’s such a smart and interesting young lady.

“What did she mean by that?” Feng Ao Si was confused. He didn’t understand what these two were talking about from the very beginning. In the first place, he even wondered what kind of secret Adjutant Nan could have.

Nan Luo passed a look at Feng Ao Si. “It just meant that Second Young Miss Wei is a smart and low key person.”

She was clearly very smart and capable.

Yet, her name remained unknown for many people. Not many people had an impression when one said the second daughter of General Wei, but a lot of people knew her sister and older brother.

She’s very low key.

Feng Ao Si glanced at Nan Luo in confusion. “…Okay?”

Nan Luo: “…”

He began to wonder whether it was because he kept on interacting with Feng Ao Kuai that he felt Feng Ao Si was a bit too slow. Or was it because he had been tempered by Feng Ao Kuai’s biting remarks and drilling for so many things that he was more used to these kinds of things.

After a few moments, he decided not to explain to Feng Ao Si.

He pushed the door slightly and saw Nan Hua was lying on the bed peacefully. After confirming that she was fine, he took a sigh of relief.

“Are there any messengers nearby?”

“I have some in my side. Do you want to send a message?”

“I need to send a message to the Mountain Tribe.” Nan Luo looked at Feng Ao Si helplessly.

He had heard from Nan Hua that she practically rushed to his location when she sensed his pain because something else might happen to him. Because of that, her people were still on their way here.

It would be better if he could tell someone that Nan Hua was here.

“…I don’t think that they’ll be brave enough to deliver message to Mountain Tribe.” Feng Ao Si rolled his eyes.

With the Mountain Tribe’s reputation, who would dare to go near them? Not to mention that the fact a lot of people were missing after they entered Xia Mountains, it had caused a lot of people to develop a sense of fear towards these people from the Mountain Tribe.

Despite the fact that the Mountain Tribe had collaborated with Fei Yang Kingdom, it was still a fact that they were very scary.

“Just lend me someone who’s willing.” Nan Luo had a headache. He knew that the Mountain Tribe was not as scary as the rumors pictured them to be. However, he didn’t even have any ideas about how to spread this thought to others.

In the end, he simply stayed silent and didn’t say anything to anyone.

It would be better not to say anything either.

“Fine.”

One way or another, Nan Luo managed to send the message to the Mountain Tribe and Chu Yue came the next day. With Chu Yue around, Nan Luo didn’t need to worry about someone bothering his twin sister and could relax a bit.

…

The days passed quietly.

With many of the soldiers still recuperating, Nan Luo was basically absent from the battles at the frontline and stayed within Han Yue City. He kept on receiving various reports from several nearby frontlines.

For example, the Thunder Valley.

After Nan Luo left, Xiao Yan saw the smoke message from Feng Ao Kuai and left the area. There would be more soldiers from General Cao’s side who would occupy the place, so they headed to Han Yue City.

As the result of the avalanche, Fei Yang Kingdom held absolute advantage.

The four armies who had been very domineering before had been thoroughly crushed and buried under the dirt. There was no one who could stop them, so Fei Yang Kingdom had managed to move their frontline a bit forward again.

And this achievement didn’t give too much credit for Nan Luo and Feng Ao Kuai.

Since the two of them basically didn’t admit that they were the cause of the avalanche, they only received the reward for delivering the information and guarding the area.

Though, they were satisfied with it.

The whole avalanche thing was better kept a secret.

It wouldn’t be good if other people heard about their ability to cause an avalanche. Though, there was some nature’s work involved within that caused the avalanche to occur so swiftly.

And the matter passed by without many ripples.

Feng Ao Kuai also headed over to Han Yue City and stayed there to ‘recuperate’ because he said that some of his soldiers were also injured.

Feng Ao Kuai’s soldiers: “…” we’re at the top of the mountain, how can we be injured?
