Forgotten Legend of the Bloodied Flower

Feng Ao Kuai's lips twitched. He turned to look at his older brother, who was staring in their direction with disbelief. It seemed that Feng Ao Si would never thought that there would be a day for him to be called weak by someone else.

"I'm not weak!" Feng Ao Si couldn't help it and protested.

Nan Luo looked at Feng Ao Si's enraged expression and couldn't help but laugh out loudly. In his eyes, the strongest among the younger generation was obviously Nan Hua.

"Why are you laughing, ah?"

"Don't even think of defeating Hua'er. Even I can't defeat her," Nan Luo said with derision. He shook his head and stretched his body. "Now, what's the next training we're going to do?"

"Wait!"

"What?"

"You said that you can't defeat her?" Feng Ao Si looked at Nan Luo with disbelief.

"Mhm." Nan Luo nodded. He then tilted his head to the side. "Is it that strange? She's much better than me when it comes to analyzing her opponent and could defeat them with their weakness. Thanks to her, I have to train overtime…"

Recalling the bitter and harsh training that Old Master Nan arranged for him to defeat Nan Hua, Nan Luo felt stressed. He still couldn't defeat Nan Hua even after doing all of those training. This made him very depressed.

He wanted to be stronger, ah!

Feng Ao Si's lips twitched. He turned to look at Nan Hua, who walked to the bamboo forest, with fear. Who would have thought that such a small and unremarkable young lady was actually a martial arts expert?

"Si Qiao." Old Master Nan walked into the field. He looked at the dumbfounded Feng Ao Kuai and the distressed Feng Ao Si while shaking his head. While he liked these two and naturally would not mind them knowing Nan Hua's real ability, he was more worried that they wouldn't be able to take this setback.

These two were an extremely proud people. They believed that their training plus their experience in battlefield would put them at the forefront amongst the younger generation.

But in truth, they couldn't be compared to a young girl who was younger than them.

"Father…"

Nan Si Qiao turned to look at her father. Her eyes were unfocused as she didn't know what she was supposed to be feeling right now. In the past, she had trained with her father, so she naturally knew that her talent and aptitude was pretty low. It took her a long time in order to be able to learn the basic.

Of course, without comparison, she wouldn't know. She had met with some young masters whom Old Master Nan brought as her practice partner. It was then she realized her weakness and the fact that she couldn't be as strong as them.

Since then, she gave up and only do martial arts occasionally in order to strengthen her body.

But now that she had children and watched their training, she naturally knew that the two brats were talented. They were much more talented than her and could learn a lot. In fact, she believed that they would be able to achieve big in their life.

Now…

Seeing someone even younger defeating her children, Nan Si Qiao began to doubt life. She couldn't believe that someone with such talent could exist in this world. It was as if the entire world would pale in comparison against such a powerful talent.

"Hua'er is a prodigy." Old Master Nan smiled helplessly. "I never thought that she'll not mind showing you. However, I would like you to keep this under wrap. There will be too many dangers for Hua'er should this matter spread."

Nan Si Qiao was stunned for a moment before nodding her head solemnly. "Don't worry, Father. I would never leak this matter."

What a joke.

How could she possibly leak out this news out and possibly put Nan Hua in danger? Not to mention, it was already enough that Nan Family had so many dramas. There was no need to add more by spreading news regarding Nan Hua's real ability.

She was not stupid.

And she didn't want to see her niece got hurt.

Especially after what had happened in Nan Family Residence.

Feng Ao Kuai had sobered from his trance. He furrowed his brows as renewed determination flashed. "Grandpa, I would like to make a request."

"Speak."

"Please allow me to spar against Hua'er once a week so that I'll be able to know my weakness." Feng Ao Kuai couldn't stand the thought that he would be the weakness in the army. There might be many strategists who couldn't fight and had to make sure that they were always in good position to protect themselves.

However, Feng Ao Kuai knew that there was no strategy that was perfect.

Should there be an accident that placed him near his opponents' soldiers, it meant that he would have to protect himself. At that time, he would need to have better martial arts to protect himself.

At the very least, he should make sure that he could stay alive until reinforcement returned.

"Request granted." Old Master Nan nodded.

He had high opinion for this grandson of his too. Feng Ao Kuai was someone who was level headed and knew how to use his brain. Even though his physical strength and talent for training was quite low, it was made up with his intelligence.

For this, Old Master Nan was grateful.

As for Feng Ao Si…

"Grandpa, I want to spar with Nan Luo every day without exception!" Feng Ao Si quickly said his request. "Until I can thoroughly defeat Nan Luo, I'll not challenge Hua'er!"

Nan Luo snorted. He glared at Feng Ao Si. "Thoroughly defeat me? You'll never have a chance for that."

"Oh right? You wouldn't know how it'll end in the future." Feng Ao Si glared back.

Looking at the three grandsons of his were having a competitive atmosphere, Old Master Nan was delighted. He laughed and nodded. "Sure. Make sure that you can defeat Nan Luo thoroughly before your return to the frontline."

"Ah…"

Feng Ao Si and Feng Ao Kuai then noticed that they wouldn't be staying in the Capital City for a long period of time. They would be following their father, who was tasked to the frontline for half a year soon.

Upon the thought of that, they felt that the world was really so unfair.

They just found out about Nan Hua and they already had to return.

"I'll make use of this time well. And when we return in half a year, I'll challenge you again." Feng Ao Si looked at Nan Luo with determination.

Nan Luo narrowed his eyes. He sneered. "As if I'll let you defeat me."

Hmph!

Thus, the training continued.

Within the bamboo forest, Nan Hua was looking in the direction of her twin brother and cousins. The reason why she allowed them to know was because she wanted them to try to surpass her.

The Feng Family would be put in difficult position in the future and if these two were not strong enough, they wouldn't be able to survive.

Nan Hua wanted to protect her family.

Her aunt and her cousins were included. Thus, she would make sure that they were strong enough to protect themselves. And when that incident come, they would be ready and no longer be destroyed.

"Young Miss, are you ready for today's training?" Hou Lin asked from the top of the bamboo tree.

Nan Hua passed a look at Hou Lin. She nodded. "Yes."

…

Time passed swiftly.

Nan Si Qiao only stayed in Nan Family Residence for three weeks in total before she had to return. Her husband would be going back to the frontline and she couldn't possibly leave him.

Her children were also going because they wanted to accumulate experience. Even if they were only stationed at the back and not yet at the very front and led their own soldiers, she wanted to make sure that her children were save.

"I'll miss the training with Cousin Feng Ao Si…" Nan Luo stretched his body. Naturally, he had been exploiting Feng Ao Si's weakness during battle while strengthening his own body. As the result, Feng Ao Si couldn't thoroughly defeat him, which meant that he couldn't challenge Nan Hua.

Nan Hua passed a look at her twin brother. "We can spar again later."

"Mhm." Nan Luo looked at his twin sister. For some unknown reason, he always felt that Nan Hua was always much stronger than him. The gap between them didn't seem to decrease at all no matter how much he trained himself.

Even now, there were some times when Nan Hua could block his attack perfectly.

Something she couldn't do in the past.

"Oh right, Long Xu Nian's marriage is hastened.. Do you want to take a look tomorrow? Grandpa did say that he'll give us a day of holiday, right?" Nan Luo asked with a grin on his face.
