Forgotten Legend of the Bloodied Flower



Thud!

The elder fell down to the ground, his eyes were filled with resentment and unwillingness.

Who would have thought that even with his skills and poisons, he would still die such an unjust death like this?

Burst!

A bag of powder was thrown to the ground and Nan Hua avoided to the back. She looked at the escaping Fourth Old Master Lin and narrowed her eyes.

There were several bags of unknown powder.

Sensing that her own body would not be able to withstand the poison, Nan Hua turned around and headed in the direction where Fourth Old Master Lin came from before. She had heard that he was arguing with Lin Sun and Lin Xia.

As long as she headed in the direction where he came from, she might be able to see Lin Sun.

Her target this time is Lin Sun.

Or to be exact, the poison he made.

Swish!

Reaching the garden at the back, Nan Hua's eyes landed on the flower at the side. With one glance, she could see that it must have been crossbreed because the color was a mix of two different colors.

Her eyes narrowed and a flash of purple appeared from the bottom of her pupil.

Various images appeared in front of her.

Tep!

Closing her eyes, Nan Hua opened it again. She crouched down and started a fire. "Sorry, I have to do this."

Blaar!

The fire started and grew bigger.

Nan Hua watched the fire in front of her for a moment and then turned around. She looked at the various houses in front of her and felt that it would be impossible for her to find Lin Sun at this time.

She didn't know which one is his house.

And it was unlikely that other people would be able to infiltrate Lin Family and escaped safely after trying to inquire about this matter. Just from entering the inner compound, Nan Hua had already felt that her body was growing heavier.

The high dose of poison was slowly taking a toll for her.

She had to get out.

Swish!

"Who's there?" A female voice sounded from the side and a middle aged woman walked out of the hut nearby. Dressed in scholarly white robe, she looked rather dignified. Her eyes quickly swept across the courtyard in front of her.

She looked at the front and saw Nan Hua who had just ran out of the garden at the back.

Her eyes narrowed.

"Who are you?"

Nan Hua looked at the middle aged woman in front of her cautiously. She wanted to just kill the other party, but she had heard that she had a senior sister in Lin Family. So far, everyone whom she killed in Lin Family was male.

She didn't want to mistakenly kill her own senior sister just because she didn't know her identity.

"I'm a passing disciple for an errand here, Elder…"

The middle aged woman looked at Nan Hua and arched her eyebrows. Ordinary disciples couldn't even enter this area and even though the appearance of the person in front of her was calm and composed, the sweat on her forehead was telling otherwise.

This person was poisoned.

"Lin Xia." The middle aged woman said her name and then shook he head. "The Lin Family is not the place for a kid like you to play around."

Lin Xia didn't seem to care too much. There were a lot of people in the Lin Family and this kid didn't seem to be here to hurt her, so she walked to the side.

It was at this time that Nan Hua noticed the jade that was hung on Lin Xia's hips.

The similar jade that she also had.

Nan Hua's eyes narrowed. "Senior Sister Lin, I don't think the Lin Family is a good place to stay either."

Hearing her call, Lin Xia turned around and arched her eyebrows. She had heard her master accepting a few more disciples when he was away. After losing his seventh disciple, her Master had never dared to accept more disciple.

Yet, he still couldn't resist when he saw that there was more someone talented in medicine and yet didn't have proper education.

"Indeed, but it's the only place where I can stay. The exit is somewhat far, but I suppose you can still head there?" Lin Xia asked back coldly.

Nan Hua looked at Lin Xia and knew that Lin Xia didn't trust her easily. However, Nan Hua's intention to come here was not to find her senior sister. Though, she truly didn't expect to be able to see the other party so soon like this.

Cupping her fist, Nan Hua turned around and left quickly.

Lin Xia's eyes narrowed when she watched Nan Hua departed.

The people in Lin Family also learned basic martial arts for the sake of protecting themselves. After all, there were a lot of people who targeted them. Even if their martial arts' attainment was not high, it should be enough to protect them against other people.

Though, it was hard to say how they would fare when fighting a master.

While Nan Hua was only running towards the other entrance that she had already investigated and planned before, Lin Xia could still see some things. First, the speed that was far above ordinary people. Secondly, the fact that Nan Hua could still use her martial arts seamlessly despite being poisoned. Thirdly, Nan Hua's direct decision to leave even after knowing her suspicion.

'Did Master pick a martial arts genius as his disciple?'

At this time, Lin Xia was somewhat doubting her master's vision.

Drap! Drap! Drap!

Looking at the disciples and guards coming, Lin Xia arched her eyebrows and turned to look in the other direction.

Seeing the fire had spread in the garden, her lips twitched.

She felt that she had to rebuke her master for picking such a disciple who had no qualms in destroying a medicinal garden.

"Master Lin Xia! Are you alright?"
