Forgotten Legend of the Bloodied Flower

Chapter 565 Spar Between Long Qian Xing and Nan Hua

　　Nan Hua cupped her fist once more. "Yes, that's true, Young Commander Long."

　　"There's no need for you to be so polite to me."

　　As Long Qian Xing got closer to Nan, he felt that the young kid in front of him looked somewhat familiar. It was as if this person was someone whom Long Qian Xing had met many times. However, he was sure that he hadn't met with this young kid personally before.

　　At most, he would see this kid from a distance.

　　Nan Hua stayed still on her place, keeping a rather menacing and unapproachable killing aura around her. Truthfully, she had long could retract her aura, but she chose not to. If she did it, she was sure that Long Qian Xing would recognize her as his fiancée.

　　It would be better not to get close to him.

　　"I have heard of your achievement. If it's not too much for you, would you like to have a light spar with me?" Long Qian Xing asked. His eyes were burning with anticipation. Whenever he met someone who was strong, he would like to have a spar so that he would know the other party's strength and how he would fare against him.

　　Thanks to this habit of his, he had already fought against variety type of people.

　　At the same time, he had been beaten up so badly by some generals who didn't hold back at all….

　　Nan Hua's eyes flickered. "Young Commander Long, I don't think it'll be appropriate for me to have a spar against you without Young Master's consent."

　　Long Qian Xing nodded. "Nan Luo will be staying in the tent for a long time because of his condition. He should not have the right to restrain you for having some light exercise in order to improve yourself, right?"

　　Listening to Long Qian Xing's words, it was as if a spar with him was very useful to grow one's strength. Though, Nan Hua did want to fight against Long Qian Xing by relying on her ability rather than limiting her strength like what she did before. After all, she had read about how strong he was back then.

　　After training in this world for five years, had she caught up with him?

　　"In that case, please take care of me, Young Commander Long." Nan Hua cupped her fist.

　　Long Qian Xing nodded. "Come with me. If we fight here, I'm afraid that the others will be worried that we destroy the camp."

　　"Yes, Young Commander Long."

　　The two of them walked towards the mountain foot, not far from Long Qian Xing's tent. There was an empty space that Long Qian Xing had asked his men to prepare since he liked to train even during battle. It was a kind of routine that would help him to calm down and perform his best.

　　No matter how much people said that he was a great leader and talented young man, Long Qian Xing knew that he was still just a human being. He could feel nervous and out of sort, so taking a walk has always his method to ease his tense heart and mind.

　　"This place should be good. Are you ready, Nan?"

　　"Yes."

　　The two of them stood opposite of each other as they focused on each of their opponent's movement. No matter how small it was, nothing escaped their eyes as they watched each other intently.

　　Swish!

　　The moment one of them moved, the other also charged. It was as if they had a tacit understanding before that the two of them would move right at the same time.

　　Clang!

　　The two swords were locked in the middle and Long Qian Xing swiftly moved back and switched his stance. He stabbed forward and Nan Hua jumped back, evading the attack with minimum differences.

　　Changing her pivot legs, Nan Hua's sword also moved towards Long Qian Xing and met with a block.

　　Clang!

　　Two pairs of eyes were looking at each other, staring at each other intently. If only their eyes could attack, there might be holes on the other party's body by now.

　　Swish!

　　Clang! Clang! Clang!

　　Retreating, advancing, and attacking. The two of them switched their attack and stance for so many times, trying their best to break through the other party's defense. Their exchange of moves was rapid and swift, not giving each other any chance to take a break at all.

　　At the back, Long Xu was watching with wide eyes. How long has it been since the last time he saw someone who could last so long against Long Qian Xing? That was naturally excluding those powerful monster or those old veterans who could defeat Long Qian Xing easily.

　　As for the younger generation or even most of those who were in their twenties, they were not his match. There were also many times when Long Qian Xing was actually holding back because he wanted to play longer with those people.

　　But he could see that Long Qian Xing was really not holding back.

　　He was attacking with all his might, but he was prepared to stop once it was necessary.

　　After all, it was a spar and not a life and death battle.

　　Clang!

　　"You're really good, Nan." Long Qian Xing chuckled. He really enjoyed himself while fighting against this young kid.

　　Nan Hua furrowed her eyebrows. She had used all of her speed and many tactics, yet she couldn't break Long Qian Xing's defense. Considering their difference in strength, she knew that she was the one who was fighting a losing battle here.

　　Swish!

　　'Five years is not enough.'

　　Nan Hua landed quite a distance away from Long Qian Xing and cupped her fist. "Young Commander Long is powerful. This one couldn't compare to you in the slightest bit."

　　Long Qian Xing lowered his sword and laughed. "Don't belittled yourself. If it's a real battle, I'm afraid that I'm not your match."

　　At that words, Nan Hua was silent.

　　Did he realize that she was an assassin type? But it was also true that if she were to use her poison and also covert weapons, Long Qian Xing might not be able to get out unscathed.

　　In fact, he might die in her hands…
