Forgotten Legend of the Bloodied Flower-Chapter 1233 Victory Celebration (2)

"You're here, Young Master Long." Nan Luo looked at Long Qian Xing with hostility in his eyes. Their ranks were still quite far, so their seating shouldn't be that close. However, he didn't want to let this man get close to his twin sister in the slightest bit.

Just the thought made him very annoyed. Please visit f𝗿e𝗲𝘄𝚎𝐛𝚗𝐨𝙫ℯl. c𝗼𝚖

Old Master Nan looked at Long Qian Xing and noticed his careful gesture. He was still keeping his distance, but it was clear that Long Qian Xing was still trying to get close this granddaughter.

In fact, there was another one of his concern about this granddaughter of his.

She's a martial artist and had capability that can even cause many people to shame, including men. He knew very well that some men didn't like having women more capable than them, just like his own son.

If Long Qian Xing was like that as well, Old Master Nan would never let Nan Hua return to her original identity.

He will provide her with a different identity that will allow her to live comfortably as long as she agreed to it.

But looking at Long Qian Xing…

Old Master Nan could see that there was no jealousy nor self-depreciation.

Instead, he was still trying to get close to Nan Hua and tried to know her better. This just made him remember his old friend, Old Master Long.

The capability of Old Madam Long in medical field was known to many people.

But what they didn't know was that Old Madam Long also have some martial arts ability. While it was not as good as many famous general, she had no trouble defeating other people and even some commanders. If it was combined with her medical knowledge, she could even paralyze them by targeting their weak points.

And Old Master Long back then actively pursue her to the point that he and Old Master Shangguan often teased him about that.

His appreciation towards capable woman was higher than the others.

And he himself admitted to the them that he liked someone who had some capabilities on her own rather than a coquettish and hard to serve ancestor master. But after knowing Old Madam Long, his statement changed somewhat midway.

*cough*

Back to the point.

With Nan Hua's current identity, there was no need for Long Qian Xing to be so careful around her. After all, he was no longer her fiancé and she was nothing more than an ordinary adjutant here.

Yet, Long Qian Xing had no intention of backing down.

He was still carefully approaching and getting to know her better.

'Maybe, this is for the best.'

Old Master Nan didn't want to admit it, but he felt that this brat was not that bad. Even though he will always say that his granddaughter is the best, a man like Long Qian Xing who could appreciate her and respect her would be better than some annoying b**** out there.

Still, he will take his time to observe Long Qian Xing.

After all, the war is still long and based on what he knew about Nan Hua, she would not return to her original identity before it was suitable for her to do so. When the war was still raging on violently, it would be better for her to stay at the frontline and helped with her ability.

As a martial artist, as a leader, and as an assassin, her role was more suitable to be put at the frontline rather than at the back.

This was something that Old Master Nan had to admit.

Whether he wanted to or not.

"I haven't seen you for some time, Young Master Long. You have grown." Old Master Nan nodded.

Long Qian Xing still kept the same polite smile on his face. "Thank you for your kind words, Great General Nan. Would you mind if I say that my father wants to have a talk with you, Great General Nan?"

Old Master Nan's lips twitched at Long Qian Xing's polite words. He felt that this brat truly inherited all the bad aspect from his two old friends. "That will be fine. I haven't talked with General Long for a while."

Long Qian Xing was smiling when he looked at the four of them. "The reward ceremony will begin soon. The generals have already gathered."

"Thank you for your reminder, Young Master Long." Nan Luo cupped his fist.

Long Qian Xing nodded. His eyes landed on their weapons that they carried. "Before you enter the main hall, your weapon had to be put away by the servants guarding the door over there."

"Yes, we know," Nan Luo answered. It was the same as before, so he was not surprised.

Nan Hua looked at Long Qian Xing but didn't attempt to strike any conversation with him. In front of other people, Long Qian Xing and Adjutant Nan shouldn't have any relationship whatsoever.

Soon, they reached the stairs and began to climb along with the other commanders

They all gave their weapon to the guards outside. Naturally, Nan Hua couldn't possibly give out her needles since they were concealed deeply within her robe. She didn't like going anywhere without any protective measure for herself.

After all, her life has always been ridden with danger.

"Nan, you may come inside this time," Long Qian Xing reminded and looked at Nan Hua deeply. Actually, he asked for them to prepare additional space for Nan Hua because he wanted her to be present.

"Thank you for your reminder, Young Commander Long." Nan Hua cupped her fist in accordance to the etiquette for males.

Old Master Nan snorted. "Let's go inside."

"Yes."

Since their status had increased, their seat was closer to the middle. But it was still quite far from those at the front. On the other hand, Old Master Nan was seated at the very forefront and looked at the others who began to enter.

They were all waiting for the Emperor to arrive and start the reward ceremony.

Nan Hua didn't stay that close to Nan Luo because she stood at the side. Unlike these commanders who could sat on a cushion, she had to stand at the side, not far from Nan Luo.

Her gaze calmly observed the commanders in the main hall.

She felt that this gathering was very similar to the original story. It seemed that even when some things changed, there were also things that will not change.
