ng! Swish!


    "And here I thought there''s a powerful assassin. To think that I would encounter a little girl instead."


    Standing in the darkness was a man d in pitch ck robe. His face was covered by mask but there was faint tattoo that Nan Hua could see at the corner of the man''s eyes. He stood there while looking at the young girl in front of him with disbelief.


    ''Yi Wa Organization.''


    Even without the need to investigate, Nan Hua already knew that this man was from Yi Wa Organization. It was a secret organization that belonged to the second prince''s maternal family, which consisted of many individuals who excelled in assassination.


    There was no record of Yi Wa Organization interfered in this event inside the novel.


    Or was it done in the background?


    Nan Hua didn''t know.


    "So, care to tell me why a young girl like you is loitering around?" the man''s eyes glued on Nan Hua.


    Nan Hua didn''t answer. Her eyes were watching the man carefully as she knew that even the slightest mistake would cost her life. The stifling atmosphere, the death threat in front of her, and the fact that the moon was covered in clouds.


    It was perfect.


    Swish! ng!


    "Shit!" The man was stunned to see that Nan Hua didn''t even speak and instead attacked directly. A dagger was used to parry the attack while the man jumped to the back, evading Nan Hua''s attack. His eyes were filled with disbelief.


    How could such a young kid could attack so fast and fierce.


    But there was no time for him to think.


    Nan Hua had moved towards him once more. The knife in her hand moved swiftly as she swung it towards the man once more.


    ng! ng! ng!


    ''Faster, even faster.''


    Her power wascking, so Nan Hua focused her attention to make sure that she could move even faster. Adrenaline was pumped inside her blood vessel as her body moved agilely to either evade or parry the man''s attack. Her small body wouldn''t be able to handle it if the attack was blocked on her directly.


    "How is this possible?" The man was stupefied when he noticed that Nan Hua was even faster than him. "Just who are you?"


    Nan Hua didn''t answer and twisted her body to evade. She swiftly jumped to the back as if she was unable to bear with the attack.


    "Die!" the man rushed forward.


    Dzing!


    Before the man could reach Nan Hua, he felt pain on his temple before he lost his footing and dropped on the ground. His eyes were looking at the front where the young girl still stood firm in front of him with her knife ready.


    She looked like just like the grim reaper, ready to take the soul of whoever went against her.


    Thud!


    ''It''s done.'' Nan Hua kept her knife away. Even though this was the first time she killed someone ever since she came to this world, she had long be numb with it. There were too many people whom she had killed due to her missions.


    The number was simply uncountable.


    She was about to follow the group inside when she sensed presence and swiftly entered into battle mode once more. However, the person in front of her was none other than Hou Lin.


    "Young Miss…?" Hou Lin asked in low voice. The person in front of him was wearing ck clothes and also covered her face, but he was familiar with her built. For the past few weeks, he had been the one to train Nan Hua.


    Nan Hua looked at Hou Lin and felt a slight headache. Because she was absorbed in the fight just now, she forgot that Hou Lin was paying close attention to her. Now… How should she exin this to him…?


    …


    Meanwhile, Old Master Nan''s group.


    "That is the entrance to the passageway. However, we''ll surely attract attention if we were to pass by this gate." Long Qian Xing knocked on the gate in front of him lightly. There were several guards before this door.


    "Is it not possible to eliminate them before they notice?" Nan Luo asked.


    Long Qian Xing passed a look at Nan Luo, feeling that the little brat really was not ordinary. Would an ordinary young boy at the age of 9 talked about eliminating people? That didn''t sound to be possible in the slightest bit.


    "Yes, it''s possible. Please excuse me." Hou Liang stepped forward and took out a bottle. Upon seeing that, Long Qian Xing tactfully moved a few steps behind and also motioned for Emperor Yang Zhou to not get close.


    "You''re carrying poison with you?" Nan Luo''s eyes widened.


    "Yes."


    "That''s cheating! What would the soldiers think if they know about this?"


    Hou Liang''s lips twitched. "All is fair in war."


    Nan Luo didn''t say anything else. True, when they were fighting at the battlefield, they would do anything in order to ensure their survival. So what if they yed dirty and used underhanded tricks?


    At the end of the day, their goal was to be able to survive and win the battle.


    The methods they used to achieve it was not entirely important.


    Hou Liang stood before the door and opened the bottle. From his stance, it was clear that the poison didn''t have any effect on him in the slightest bit. However, the other soldiers who were following them didn''t dare to get close in the slightest bit.


    They didn''t want to die yet.


    "Is it deadly poison?" Long Qian Xing asked curiously. His sister also dabbled in poison, so he was not that unfamiliar. However, the poison that Hou Liang used didn''t seem to be familiar.


    Did Nan Family make new type of poison?


    "It''ll allow them to sleep peacefully." Old Master Nan passed a look at Long Qian Xing. "I would like not to increase unnecessary casualties if it''s unnecessary."


    "Fair enough." Long Qian Xing nodded. The people who were guarding the gate were ordinary soldiers. There was no need to kill them.


    "It''s done."


    "Let''s go inside."
