Nan Hua silently left Feng Qian Han's Residence after passing the message. It was actually something that could be done by someone else. However, she wanted to pay a visit to Han Zhong City and looked at the damage done here.
Plus, it was time for her to plant more people in this city.
As she walked to the north gate, Nan Hua saw a figure sat beside a large tree. She wore dark blue robes with a bamboo in her hand. The bamboo had holes on it, clearly showing that it was the humble various of the ancient flute. The woman was looking into a distance without any clear indication where she was looking.
It was very similar to the image Nan Hua saw when she first met with the other party.
Chen Yuan seemed to be able to sense her as she turned in the direction where Nan Hua was located. At this time, Nan Hua no longer erase her presence and allowed her senior sister to sense her presence.
"I didn't expect to see Junior Sister Hua to be here."
"I can say the same to you, Senior Sister Chen," Nan Hua replied softly. The last time she met with Chen Yuan was when the latter played the flute and then left to Zhang Xu Kingdom. Little did she expect to see her staying in Han Zhong City.
"I was paying a short visit to meet Fourth Senior Brother and also my Tenth Junior Brother. There are some matters that I require their help." Chen Yuan played with the flute in her hand. Her blank look seemed to be able to see even though she had been blind for so many years.
Nan Hua nodded. Fourth Senior Brother and Tenth Junior Brother. She hadn't met with either one of them formally because of their position and location. The Fourth Senior Brother was in Fei Yang Kingdom but not in the Capital City. The Tenth Senior Brother (for her, he's her senior brother) was in Shi Long Kingdom most of the time.
Now that the Joint War had just ended, the border had become a bit free. This allowed them to cross the border easily for some time.
"Please be careful, Senior Sister Chen."
"I will. Would you like to meet them?" Chen Yuan smiled.
Nan Hua shook her head. "There's no need."
"I see." Chen Yuan was looking in the direction where she heard Nan Hua's voice, but she couldn't hear the other party. "This will be my farewell, Junior Sister Hua. The next time I step onto Fei Yang Kingdom again, the situation will be different."
Nan Hua was looking at Chen Yuan deeply. She didn't know much about Chen Yuan's situation, but she had already done her own investigation. Though, the information that was left behind was quite lacking if she had to say.
"I'll hope that it'll not happen, Senior Sister Chen."
"Yes… let's hope so." Chen Yuan thought for a moment then giggled. "Thank you for talking to me again after all this time."
"Senior Sister Chen had already taught me a lot. Isn't it only natural for me to greet my senior sister?"
"I never know that my Junior sister had such a glib tongue." Chen Yuan took out a bamboo scroll from her inner pocket. She handed it to Nan Hua. "This is my last gift for you as your senior sister."
"Thank you, Senior Sister Chen."
"Mhm."
Nan Hua could sense that there were several people coming, so she bid her farewell and left. Whoever was coming was not an ordinary person considering that there were a large number of experts around him.
But Nan Hua didn't stop and soon disappeared.
"Chen Yuan." A low and deep voice greeted the young woman.
Chen Yuan didn't even raise her head. She could recognize this low and deep voice anywhere. "Fourth Senior Brother. You're late."
"You're busy talking with a kid not long ago."
"She's our Twelfth Junior Sister." Chen Yuan stood up. "Tenth Junior Brother will come soon. Shall we find another place to talk?"
The man narrowed his eyes at Chen Yuan's words and looked in the direction where Nan Hua had left. He was staying at a distance away, so he hadn't paid close attention to that young girl. However, he had to admit that she did look somewhat familiar.
Well, if fate allowed it, he would see her in the future.
"Come with me."
…
"Wow, the place is good, Grandpa!" Nan Luo was looking around and felt rather satisfied with what he saw. It was out of his expectation that there would be a lot of things to do here.
Old Master Nan smacked his grandson's head and shook his head. "Don't act out of the place like that."
"That hurts!"
"If you don't stop, I'll beat you up again."
Nan Luo was speechless and naturally ran away to the side to avoid his grandfather. Even though he had grown taller, he was still acting as childishly as he used to be. It seemed as if he had no intention to grow up at all.
Watching from the side, Feng Ao Kuai silently wondered how Nan Hua could stand living with such a brother.
"Nan hadn't returned yet?" Nan Luo then asked.
Old Master Nan shook his head. In fact, he had only found out that Nan Hua disappeared when he came to Heng Xing City and saw his grandsons. He also found out that Nan Hua took the message that he was planning to give to Feng Qian Han, so it could be said that she must be heading there.
As for why?
Neither one of them knew for sure.
"I miss her…" Nan Luo muttered under his breath. He thought that Nan Hua would only take a few days but it took longer than expected.
Feng Ao Si looked at his younger cousin and scratched the back of his head. "She's not a little kid like before anymore. You can't stay with her all the time."
