Forgotten Legend of the Bloodied Flower

1021 [Bonus chapter]Talent and Hard Work

Nan Hua thought for a while.

But she couldn’t think of anything.

In the end, Nan Hua pointed at Chu Yue. “She’s my maidservant. She’ll follow me for the time being.”

“Alright.” Wu Shan was being easy going.

Chu Yue blinked her eyes. She really wondered just what did Nan Hua experienced for the past few months to be able to meet with so many new people like this. And from the way they interacted, they seemed to be friends rather than mere acquaintance.

“Did you catch anyone?”

“There are a few of them. Oh right, Jin Jie will return from the frontline for a week’s time.”

“Any reason?”

“They just conquered a city and caused quite a lot of destruction back then. Now that they had finished another battle and forced Zhang Xu Kingdom to move their line a bit, Jin Jie wants her soldiers to rest a bit.”

.....

Wu Shan smiled bitterly. Yu Jin had forced her soldiers for a long period of time to be in their peak condition. Now that they had gained some advantage, she would rather step back and take some break so that her soldiers could have some rest too.

Besides, she was not really used to fight in those large cities and valleys. It was much better for her to stay on the Mountain and in the terrain that she was familiar with.

“I see.”

Nan Hua exchanged a few more words with Wu Shan before retreating.

She headed to the room that Wu Shan used to capture the test subjects who attacked the Mountain Tribe. Many of them were in a poor condition as it was not easy to keep them alive when they didn’t even know their body’s limit.

Looking at these people, Nan Hua’s eyes gleamed a bit.

She had learned many things from the medical record.

Now, it was time to test it out.

…

While Nan Hua was busy, Yu Jin returned to the mountain. She stretched her hand when she reached the base with a contented smile. It has been a long time since she came back.

Home was indeed the best.

“Jin Jie, you’re back.”

“Ah Shan!” Yu Jin waved her hand happily. “You seem to be healthier than the last time I see you. How’s the condition of the mountain?”

“It’s still more or less the same, Jin Jie.” Wu Shan smiled bitterly. He also stepped back in order to avoid being strangled to death by his sister. Yu Jin could exert a lot of power and Wu Shan didn’t want to be the first person to die in Yu Jin’s hand because of an accident.

“I see~. Hmm, Hua’er is here?”

“Yes, Jun Hua came three days ago. She has been staying in that room where we put the prisoners.” Wu Shan pointed to one side.

“Three days?”

“Yes?”

Yu Jin’s expression turned strange. The last time Nan Hua tried to reverse their acupuncture method, she only spent a day’s time. Now, Nan Hua was staying in that room for three days?

The number of people they capture who were still alive should be around the same.

“I’ll take a look.”

“Be careful, the smell of the blood and medicines are very strong when you go near the door,” Wu Shan reminded.

“Ok.”

Yu Jin nodded and walked to the building. When she came close, she realized that Wu Shan was correct. The smell of blood and medicine was so strong that one would wonder whether they could be poisoned to death because of the medicine.

When the thought crossed her mind, Yu Jin knocked the door and pushed it at the same time.

“Hua’er, are you there? I’m coming in, ok?”

The room was dim.

Nan Hua stood near a bed while a bloodied body laid in front of her. There were countless other bodies around her, which were already in terrifying condition. Even though Yu Jin had seen a lot in her time, this was the first time she saw such horrible and gory scenes.

Pushing all kind of messy thoughts back to her mind, she tried to focus on Nan Hua.

“Hua’er.”

“Jin Jie.” Nan Hua turned around. Her expression was still as cold as ever, but her eyes looked a bit loss. It was as if someone who was previously very confident was now facing a large wall that made him loss a bit of that confidence.

And for Yu Jin to see it in someone like Nan Hua, she would definitely feel strange.

As someone who was so powerful, Nan Hua has always been calm and collected. She never showed any of her real feelings and even when she encountered something, she would still be calm and did it with her own pace.

There didn’t seem to be any pressure around her.

But Yu Jin knew that her impression was wrong.

There was no way that there was no pressure. There must be pressure, but Nan Hua simply wouldn’t show it as long as she could still bear with it calmly. Even now, it was not completely apparent.

It was just there.

Yu Jin faintly sensed it.

“Hua’er, are you alright?”

“Mhm.” Nan Hua looked at her bloodied hand and then took a nearby cloth to wipe it away. She had been working tirelessly for the past few days to the point that she didn’t know how much time had passed.

It was so tiring.

Yu Jin looked at Nan Hua for a moment then said, “You don’t have to be so stressed about this.”

Nan Hua glanced to look at Yu Jin.

“No matter what, you have your own strength and weakness. It’s simply impossible for you to be good at everything unless you’re not human.” Yu Jin smiled reassuringly. “Even if your talent is not good enough, you can make it up with hard work.”

She didn’t know what Nan Hua was thinking for sure, but she had an inkling that it might be related to what she had done in this place.
