Forgotten Legend of the Bloodied Flower

Nan Hua is a genius.

At least, that was how Yu Jin saw it. From the very moment she met with Nan Hua, a lot of people around her had been wondering how could there be someone even more monstrous than her.

She herself had received that treatment for as long as she could remember.

From the very moment she showed her wild side that could destroy even an adult with her attacks, the people around her were afraid of her. The elders took her in and raised her, teaching her everything she needed to know as the next leader.

And when she became the leader, she could really feel the pressure, the expectation, and the wishes of the people around her.

They wanted her to lead them.

It would be a big lie for her to say that she didn't work hard to fulfill their expectation. There were many times when she herself felt so tired that she had to walk away in order to calm down.

After all, she's still a human being.

There was a limit to how much she could act as if she didn't feel anything and forced her way forward.

When there were things that she had to do yet it proved to be hard for her, Yu Jin could still remember that she had to burn the midnight oil so many times. Her mind and body were tired, but she didn't want to show it.

People were used to only see the success, yet they forget that behind every successes was hard work that poured tears, blood, and sweat.

Not everyone was born with the talent to do every single thing right.

They might have talent for one field but weak in other matter.

All they could do was to work hard in order to make up for their lack of talent.

"And if you're tired, you can take a break," Yu Jin added.

Nan Hua looked at Yu Jin and put the cloth in her hand down. She nodded lightly. She felt really tired and needed some rest.

Glancing at the back, Nan Hua shook her head lightly.

Honestly, if there was no comparison, she might not be in such a hurry to finish it to the point of forcing herself like this. But she knew that Luo Qing Wei would figure out everything within a month's time ever since she first saw this soldier.

One was a genius doctor.

And the other was only slightly talented.

The difference was enormous.

She only knew that to solve the problems with these soldiers, they had to either destroy all the location of the medicines or to solve the reverse problems.

The first one was irrational.

There was no way Nan Hua could possibly find all of them. There were simply too many and Dark Moon Organization didn't have the capability to cover up such a large network.

Not to mention, the information spread and control was not exactly that good in this era.

By the report given to her, Nan Hua knew very well that her men were already working their best. But they were not fast enough and there was really no more time. The research was already ongoing and soon, Zhang Xu Kingdom would begin to put them to use.

At most another year.

But that seemed to be hoping too much.

The second one was more plausible if one had high medical talent. But Nan Hua realized that even with her cheating and using the medical record that Zhang Xu Kingdom people had, she still failed to do the reverse method.

It always failed in the middle.

She's tired now.

The two of them walked out and Nan Hua headed to one of the rooms there to take a bath and rested. With Chu Yue watching over her, Nan Hua soon went inside and had some rest. Though, her mind was still playing out the methods that she didn't manage to do in time and wondered whether she should be faster or changed to another method.

*Sigh*

"Jin Jie?" Wu Shan noticed that Yu Jin looked worried.

"Our little sister is a bit headstrong." Yu Jin smiled bitterly. She thought about Wu Shan and realized that both of her younger siblings were both very hard to deal with. They had their own ideas and sometimes, it was hard to convince them otherwise.

Wu Shan nodded. "I see."

"You don't seem to be worried."

"I'm not that close with Jun Hua." Wu Shan paused a bit, glancing in Yu Jin's direction to see whether his older sister would be angry. Seeing that her expression didn't change, he continued, "And I'm sure that she'll be just fine like how she has always been."

Yu Jin was speechless.

Why did she take this dense boy to be her younger brother in the first place?

For some reason, Yu Jin began to feel that her decision back then to take this blockhead as her younger brother was wrong. But then again, talking about feelings was not exactly Wu Shan's forte.

For someone who grew up so brutally, it was already good enough that he didn't turn into a mad murderer.

"Forget it, I better not ask you."

"Jin Jie?"

"Go and have some rest."

"Ok?"

While Wu Shan was confused, he still followed his older sister's arrangement. In any case, he did want to have some rest when he first met with Yu Jin.

On the other hand, Yu Jin looked at the door once more then shrugged. There was no point in waiting any longer. She better has some rest too and chatted with Nan Hua again the next day.

The night passed quietly.

This time, the soldiers were able to sleep peacefully after being in constant state of worry. Even after staying at the battlefield for years, it was impossible to say that all of them were fearless of death.

They still have fear.

But they had more reasons to step forward.

If they didn't fight, they wouldn't be able to protect what they truly cared for.

Right before it was dawn, Yu Jin faintly sensed someone approaching her restroom. She frowned then glanced to the side. The corner of her lips twitched.

Swish!

"You're up so early, Hua'er."
