Forgotten Legend of the Bloodied Flower-Chapter 1187 The Secret Place (1)

Nan Hua's eyes carefully scanned the door in front of her.

'Key.'

There was a keyhole there, which was quite surprising considering the current era's design. However, Nan Hua knew that it was indeed a very special door that sealed the most important thing in Wei Da Kingdom.

Something that not even the current emperor would know.

Only the founder of Wei Da Kingdom knew what was behind this door along with those who kept the record and had read it.

Nan Hua knew from the novel.

She stood there and then turned around. Someone was coming to this place, so if she didn't want to get found, she had to escape as quickly as possible. But as the rhythmical steps entered her ear, Nan Hua's body didn't move from her place.

She recognized those steps.

Tep!

Long Qian Xing stopped in front of the opened door, looking at Nan with surprise. He hadn't sensed anyone inside even when he was coming here. Looking at the moved bookcase behind Nan, he could guess that 'he' came here for the secret behind this door too.

"I don't think Nan Family need it, right?" Long Qian Xing asked in a low voice as he walked inside, looking at the door behind Nan. His dark eyes were staring at the youth in front of him deeply.

For Nan to know about this door, it meant that the Nan Family was not completely blind about the secret that had been buried for more than a century. He himself only knew about it because of what Emperor Yang Zhou told him, so how could Nan Family knew about it earlier than him?

Was it because Nan Family once risen through the ranks higher than other nobles?

But ordinary emperors and nobles would never know about it.

"It doesn't belong to the Long Family either," Nan Hua replied unhurriedly. Her black obsidian eyes were staring at Long Qian Xing calmly.

Long Qian Xing chuckled. "I'm here under the order of His Majesty, Emperor Yang Zhou, to retrieve the thing inside."

Nan Hua still didn't move from her place.

Seeing the young adjutant posture, Long Qian Xing could guess that 'he' will not want to move until 'he' knew what was inside. The problem is, Long Qian Xing had no intention of involving Nan Family in this matter.

"Do you want to come inside?" Long Qian Xing asked, his eyes narrowed.

"It's my freedom to stay here and take a look at it." Google search 𝙛𝓇𝘦e𝙬𝑒𝚋𝒏૦ѵel. c𝒐𝚖

The two of them looked at each other. Both were stubborn and didn't want to back down at all.

Long Qian Xing narrowed his eyes. "How deep is your relationship with Nan Family?"

Nan Hua didn't answer immediately.

How deep is her relationship with Nan Family?

If it was her dead father and her half siblings, the answer would be extremely far. So far that she didn't even want to be recognized as relatives and would be better off as strangers.

But if it was her grandfather and her twin brother, they would be the closest family members to her. So close that she didn't want anything bad to happen to them because she will definitely feel heartache and distress.

"My life and death will be Nan Family's life and death too."

Long Qian Xing's eyes were deep as he watched the youth in front of him. Even though his every reason was telling him not to tell this matter to anyone, but he felt that the words of this youth in front of him could be trusted.

The Nan Family had been supporting Emperor Yang Zhou from the very beginning, which might be because of the old friendship between their grandfathers.

Even now, this matter never changed.

"How does Nan Family know about this matter?"

Nan Hua looked at Long Qian Xing but didn't answer. Nan Family didn't know, she knew. Emperor Yang Zhou's grandfather, Emperor Huan, never told any of his friends about this matter because it contained secret that could change the face of the entire six kingdoms.

But this secret was passed down to Emperor Yang Zhou through some methods.

That way, this young emperor knew that conquering other kingdoms were not just a childish dream that was sprouted by a teenager who knew nothing but a person who knew the weight and the chances.

"You won't tell me, huh?" Long Qian Xing looked at the door behind Nan Hua and then at the surroundings.

He couldn't sense anyone around this area since he had already asked the guards to keep this area clear for the time being. He had to finish the task that the Emperor gave to him within the limited time that he bought for himself.

But thinking about how easily Nan erased 'his' presence that even he didn't know that 'he' was here, Long Qian Xing started to doubt his martial arts ability a bit. Would there be anyone else around here?

"No one else is here," Nan Hua spoke calmly. "I'm better at detection than you, Young Master Long."

Young Master Long.

Not Young Commander Long.

Hearing this familiar address, Long Qian Xing felt somewhat bothered. He looked at the youth in front of him and took a deep breath. "How can I be assured that you will never tell anyone about this matter?"

"I won't tell until His Majesty publicized it by himself." Nan Hua looked at Long Qian Xing. "Even if you don't come here, I can try to figure out another method to enter and find that thing myself."

Long Qian Xing's eyes deepened. "You can follow, but I have to take it."

"Ok."

He took that one, she will take the other.

Nan Hua had no intention of saying that in front of Long Qian Xing, but she knew what he wanted from this secret place.

"Good." Long Qian Xing stepped forward and Nan Hua made way. The two of them were keeping their distance with each other as they were being wary.

Taking out a key, Long Qian Xing inserted it to the keyhole and turned it around.

Click.

The door opened.
