[1] Forgotten Legend of the Bloodied Flower

Ch 726 - 730

Chapter 726: Prelude

Mu Yan looked in Nan Hua's direction with worry. "Are you alright, Miss?"        
   
"Mhm."    

Nan Hua said nothing else and simply entered the residence. She looked at the sky and thought that this world was hopelessly flawed. Grudges from older generations were carried to the younger generation and even unborn children were not spared from their schemes.    

Closing her eyes, Nan Hua felt as if she had returned to that place once more. A place where human's life was as cheap as grass and without their usefulness, their only outcome was only death.    

So if they wanted to live, they just had to prove that they were useful.    

Nan Hua opened her eyes and looked at the residence in front of her. In that place, she was hopeless for she was unable to get away. The only option for her to get out of that organization was only if she died.    

But this world is different.    

She had built her power little by little without revealing it to the world. When they finally realized who actually held the reins, it would be too late.    

No one would be dictating her life anymore.    

The four servants were standing not far from Nan Hua and looked at her small back as Nan Hua entered the building. For some reason, they felt that the aura around Nan Hua had changed slightly. All this time, they knew that Nan Hua was a very dangerous person and those who dared to mess with her would eventually suffer themselves.    

But they rarely felt that way when they saw Nan Hua on her daily basis.    

She looked as normal as any other young noble young girl could be. It was to the point that ordinary people wouldn't be able to differentiate her from other noble ladies and point out any of the differences.    

But that aura just now…    

It was filled with oppression without any trace of concealment.    

Those who sensed it would feel fear. They would subconsciously felt that they were unworthy to stand before her. At the same time, they would be worried that if they made any mistake, they wouldn't be able to keep their lives.    

"Did something happen when she's visiting the Mu Family Residence?" Chu Yan asked. The ones who followed Nan Hua were Xiao Yun and Mu Yan. She and Ran both stayed in the residence because it would be inappropriate for them all to follow Nan Hua without leaving anyone here.    

Xiao Yun shook her head. "Fourth Miss Mu is very nice to Young Miss and they look so good together."    

"They look like real sisters," Mu Yan added from the side.    

Chu Yue tilted her head as she watched Nan Hua entered the building. That aura only appeared for a moment, but she had the feelings that once Nan Hua was no longer restrained by this identity of hers… that aura might be something they would see almost every single day.    

"Let's serve Miss well."    

"That's for sure."    

The four of them didn't dare to discuss this anymore and did their duties.    

That days passed quietly.    

Very quiet in fact.    

Nan Shu Cheng didn't throw any tantrum or showed his anger, but he locked Madam Qu and even didn't allow her to get out of her quarter. This showed others that Nan Shu Cheng was terribly angry at Madam Qu for making him lose his child even before the child was born.
