Forgotten Legend of the Bloodied Flower

Chapter 1404 Reason

"Thanks," Nan Hua said calmly.

Yu Jin looked at Nan Hua with a smirk. "So, now am I allowed to act as your older sister in front of him?"

Nan Hua glanced at Yu Jin. For some reason, she had the feeling that Yu Jin disliked Long Qian Xing greatly. Granted, his personality was not the type that could be easily liked by others because they might not like be calculated by him.

And Yu Jin seemed to take this matter somewhat personally.

"It's up to you."

"Good." Yu Jin smiled happily. She wanted to make that man be miserable in front of her after unable to actually catch up with him. Adding little schemes like this should be fine. "With you borrowing my soldiers again, are you planning on actually participating in this battle?"

"Mhm." Nan Hua nodded. "Jun Hua will be going to stand on the frontline."

Yu Jin arched her eyebrows. "With your face like this, are you not worried that they will be targeting your twin brother?"

Yu Jin had naturally seen Nan Luo and noticed that the twins were quite similar to each other. Of course, she could still differentiate them after interacting with Nan Hua for some time. But others might not be able to do that easily.

Nan Hua blinked her eyes. "He had started to look different."

"Huh?"

The two of them were approaching 18 years old. The last time Nan Hua spend the time to accompany Nan Luo, she noticed that he had started to grow taller. By now, he was already around 10 centimeters taller than her.

Even if the two of them wanted to switch with each other again, it would not be as easy as it used to be. Nan Hua would need to wear special shoes that could enhance her height slightly so that the difference between the twins wouldn't be too much.

As for their faces…

They had started to become more mature, which meant that her features turned more feminine while Nan Luo's features become more masculine.

They still looked somewhat similar but no longer as much as it used to be.

"We're growing up, Jin Jie," Nan Hua explained in another words.

Yu Jin took a closer look at Nan Hua and thought of the time when Nan Hua first climbed up her mountain. It was then she realized that Nan Hua's features were indeed becoming more and more feminine.

Without wearing a mask, it would be difficult for Nan Hua to pose as a man.

Her delicate and enchanting features would be the greatest giveaway to others that she was a young woman. A very beautiful one at that.

"I see. Well, not many people can see the face of a noble lady from what I heard." Yu Jin shrugged, not caring about this matter too much. She was not a noble lady and naturally only heard of those annoying details when she tried to investigate a bit more.

As a person who had been raised on the mountain, Yu Jin had a relatively free and wild personality. She would never be able to stand it if she had to stay inside the boudoir, learning how to become a docile woman who would only take care of her husband.

She would rather escape rather than staying in such situation.

Even if the lives outside would be more difficult, it was still much better than having to stay inside and do those elegant things.

It definitely didn't suit her.

But this also allowed her to understand why Nan Hua was not that worried. Even if some people suspicious of it, as long as she didn't admit personally, they wouldn't be able to pinpoint this matter and accused her.

And what would they get even if they tied her with the Nan Family?

Hoping that the Emperor would target the Nan Family directly?

But Nan Hua only admitted that she was the princess of Dark Moon Organization and not the leader of Dark Moon Organization. This title as the princess could only mean that she had some influence in the organization but not the highest one considering that there was also the word 'queen' or 'empress.'

And if Nan Hua suddenly said that she was kicked out or faked her death once more, how could they create trouble for her. When she turned into her original identity again, all she had to do was to pretend to be dumb and understand nothing.

Could they interrogate a young lady so fiercely?

By that time, Nan Luo should already have high enough position to protect the Nan Family lineage and not allowed it to fall.

No one would be willing to offend the young commander for such a ridiculous matter that they were unsure of unless they were Nan Family's mortal enemies.

Yu Jin chuckled. "You're quite cunning."

Nan Hua didn't answer and followed Yu Jin to the front. At this time, Chu Yue had already sneaked inside and prepared a horse for her. Looking at Chu Yue, who was dressed as a man, Nan Hua started to wonder whether it was time for her to sneak more people inside.

That way, Chu Yue didn't have to be so tired to follow her all the time wherever she went.

Among her four maidservants, Chu Yue was the one who had the highest martial arts and could protect herself better. The others were not so good even if they knew some self-protection.

"I'm going to patrol the areas and set up the new camp. Are you coming with me or with that man?" Yu Jin hopped onto her horse.

"I'm going to follow General Xing," Nan Hua replied.

When she was outside, she will call Long Qian Xing with his title. But when they were alone, she will call him with the word 'brother.'

"Alright. Take care of yourself. Also, do remember that the most important thing is to protect yourself." Yu Jin looked at Nan Hua for a moment and silently decided to start educating this younger sister of hers in regards of men in the future.

Nan Hua looked at Yu Jin silently and nodded. "I know, Jin Jie."

"Ok, I'm going."

Drap! Drap! Drap!
