Forgotten Legend of the Bloodied Flower-Chapter 61 - Fighting Against Commander Hai (4)

"It's done, Young Miss…"

Hou Lin stopped talking when Nan Hua motioned for him to shut up. The door that was connecting the passage to the hall was slowly being opened.

A young man around the age of 20 to 21 stood there while holding a stack of papers. He was dressed in brown robe and the markings on his robe clearly told them that he was nothing more than one of the low ranking officials. As for why he was there, no one knew for sure.

Nan Hua's attention landed on the room behind the young man. It was not the main hall but the side hall. It seemed that this left side passage that she picked was the one that was connected to the side hall rather than the main hall.

'Did I pick the wrong path?'

'But Commander Hai is indeed here.'

'Is there anything I forget?'

"Should I kill him?" Hou Lin asked, his eyes narrowed at the young man before him. He didn't know why but he could sense that the young man before him would be a threat if kept alive.

Nan Hua didn't answer as she was scrutinizing the young man before her. She slowly asked, "Who are you?"

The young man jolted at Nan Hua's voice. He was not any less surprised than them right now. When he heard the commotion from this supposedly abandoned secret passage, he thought that there must be some kind of conspiracy and that he was in bad luck for encountering them.

But he also knew that if they opened the door and found him here, he would be dead either way.

Thus, he braved himself and opened the door.

But what he saw shocked him to the core. A young kid who didn't look any older than 10 years old was dressed in the way an assassin would. And the man before him even called her as 'Young Miss?' Just who was she?

"I… My name is Zhang Dan Shui, I'm the first son of Zhang Family," Zhang Dan Shui quickly introduced himself. His heart was thumping madly because he knew that whether he could stay alive or not depended on the young girl's whim in front of him. He didn't even dare to breathe as he was afraid that he would displease the other party.

…

- Nan Luo's side -

Bang!

"Nan Luo!"

"I'm fine!" Nan Luo gritted his teeth as he jumped back up once more. His eyes noticed the tip of the sword that was a few centimeters away from his eyes as he swiftly dodged once more to the side, rolling on the ground.

Slash!

Part of his hair was cut and Nan Luo couldn't do anything but continue to roll on the ground. His clothes were dirty but that was the least of his concern. He had only barely managed to escape with his life intact.

At this moment, Long Qian Xing had already struck his sword towards Commander Hai. His movement was swift and decisive as the sword pierced through the man's leg.

Jleb! 𝒇𝔯e𝚎𝘄𝑒𝑏𝙣𝑜𝚟𝗲𝑙.c𝘰𝚖

"Guh! You dare!" Commander Hai roared and twisted his body. His sword was directed towards Long Qian Xing.

Swish!

By jumping backwards, Long Qian Xing barely evaded the attack. The corner of his lips curled up to form a smirk. Since he couldn't target Commander Hai's body without getting blocked, he targeted Commander Hai's leg.

When the commander attacked Nan Luo, his leg was stretched, thus providing the chance that Long Qian Xing had been waiting for.

"Don't forget that I'm also here!" Nan Luo roared and jumped up. His sword met with Commander Hai's sword as he gritted his teeth. It was so heavy!

"You're overestimating yourself!"

Swish!

Flung to the back, Nan Luo landed on the ground gracefully. He could feel his heart thumping madly as he charged towards Commander Hai once more. His movements grew faster and more relentless.

In his mind, he began to think of his little sister and how they always trained together. There were many times when Nan Hua would target spot that was hard to defend, causing him to lose stamina quickly and eventually lost against her.

'That spots… should be here.'

Clang! Clang! Clang!

Changing his target rapidly, Nan Luo and Long Qian Xing both handled Commander Hai. With the injury in his legs, Commander Hai was getting slower and Nan Luo obviously noticed that. However, targeting his other leg wouldn't be easy.

The commander wouldn't be tricked so easily like before again.

In that case, they should just use their advantage of number!

Swish! Clang!

Nan Luo swiftly moved to the opposite side of Long Qian Xing. If he attacked from the front, he would attack from the back. If he attacked from the right side, he would attack from the left side.

Their continuous attack wore Commander Hai down.

More cuts appeared on their bodies, including the commander. He could clearly sense that the longer he dragged this, the more disadvantageous it would be for him. The problem was, he couldn't deal with any of them.

"Damn you brats!"

Commander Hai suddenly moved over to Long Qian Xing and raised his hand to launch a big attack. Long Qian Xing knew that he didn't have any escape route and raised his sword to block it.

"Now, Brat!"

Bang!

The two swords met head on, causing tremendous pressure on Long Qian Xing's body. Even the floor beneath his legs cracked due to the power that was transmitted from the swords. Long Qian Xing gritted his teeth to withstand the attack as his hand trembled slightly.

It was so heavy!

The full power from a commander who had spent so much time in the battlefield was so heavy. It represented all of his power that brought him to his current position.

This commander… was not someone who had not survived on the gruesome battlefield!

Nan Luo didn't waste his chance. He ran towards Commander Hai and thrust his sword forward.

Jleb!

"You…."
