Chapter 989: Opposite Side

“You should have guessed it, Senior Sister Chen.”

“With how long you have known; you can actually stop it.”

“You haven’t done anything back then and even if there’s a possibility, it hadn’t happened yet.”

Chen Yuan chuckled when she heard Nan Hua’s answer. “For someone like you to trust your heart more than your rationality…. I don’t know whether I should be thankful for Master or feel sad for the other people who will suffer from our decision.”

Nan Hua looked at Chen Yuan without any ripples in her eyes. “My hand has always been stained with blood and it’ll never change.”

She’s an assassin.

The number of people who had died in her hand was uncountable. From using simple assassination missions, to bombing and even using mass destruction weapon, Nan Hua knew that she had killed millions of people.

In this world, the number of people she had killed be it directly or indirectly was also numerous.

Being an assassin, leader of an organization, and also part of the military, Nan Hua had already killed a lot of people. It was to the point that she felt numb when she saw unrelated people dying in front of her.

“Whether they live or die, it’s their destiny.” Chen Yuan glanced at Nan Hua. Her eyes were unable to see anything, yet it seemed to be able to see through things. “My hands had been stained with blood and I wish to wash it by becoming a proper doctor. But as I had expected, it’s not possible.”

Nan Hua didn’t know what had happened to Chen Yuan in her childhood. She had begun gathering intel from various parts in Zhang Xu Kingdom, but many hadn’t reached her yet. Su Bai’s position in Zhang Xu Kingdom was not that stable yet to slip on the information.

But even if she didn’t know, she could guess.

The song that Chen Yuan played to her back then had told her part of Chen Yuan’s life story. The story of how a little girl who used to live happily was forced to face the harsh reality of the world.

“You care for Nan Family. I care for my brother.” Chen Yuan slowly stood up. She smiled faintly. “Farewell, Hua’er.”

They couldn’t be teacher and disciple anymore.

They couldn’t even be normal senior sister and junior sister.

Nan Hua could guess that what Chen Yuan wanted was revenge for her brother. Even though she felt that the relationship between Chen Yuan and her brother was not simple, she didn’t want to interfere in Chen Yuan’s decision.

They had their own life and their own path.

It was just unfortunate that after their path crossed each other, now their path was blocking each other.

“Farewell, Sister Chen.”

The two young women looked at each other before they left one by one. Chen Yuan left from the backdoor while Nan Hua left from the front door. They wouldn’t kill each other as they couldn’t do it.

But it didn’t mean that the people under them wouldn’t fight against each other.     𝓷𝐎𝒱𝗲𝔩𝒩𝑬xt.𝓒𝐎𝓜

This might be the last time they could meet so peacefully like this.

…

After that short meeting, Nan Hua returned to the riverbanks. She could see that Yu Jin was highly efficient. There was no need for her to acquire a new ship on her own. What she did was simply gave order that these merchants ship had to leave.

“Oh, you’re here.” Yu Jin waved her hand when she saw Nan Hua. “There are three ships going to Han Yuan City. You can be at ease picking either one of them to sneak in.”

“Mhm. Thank you, Jin Jie.”

“I’m your older sister, so it’s natural that I have to help.” Yu Jin grinned.

Nan Hua only nodded while scrutinizing those ships. They were mostly small trading ships, but she could still sneak onto the ship. Those merchants wouldn’t know that there was an additional passenger anyway.

“So, you’re going to leave right away? I can hold them off for another day if you want to. That young commander should arrive here by tomorrow.”

“There’s no need.”

She didn’t want to meet Long Qian Xing.

At least, not now.

Yu Jin scrutinized Nan Hua’s look for a moment. She has always been a sharp person and right now, she could guess that the reason why Nan Hua wanted to leave so quickly might be related to that young commander.

It was a pity that she didn’t have enough information about Fei Yang Kingdom in its entirety. There were a lot of news that she had missed. Most of the information she got from General Wei were related to the warfare and so on.

What happened in the Capital City and some of the events from the young misses were naturally missing.

Yu Jin didn’t have any information gathering organization like Nan Hua, so what she could do was simply to rely on others for this. And the one she asked for help the most was Nan Hua. There was no way Nan Hua would bother spreading the fact about her own personal affair to other people.

“You’re avoiding him. Did something happen?” Yu Jin tilted her head.

Nan Hua looked at Yu Jin without answering.

Being stared at those black obsidian pupils, Yu Jin felt a bit uncomfortable. She had to admit that in terms of oppressing others from their gaze alone, Nan Hua undoubtedly had that capability.

Killing intent, dangerous aura, and so on.

“Fine if you don’t want to say. Be careful on your way.”

“Mhm.”

After that, Nan Hua slipped onto one of the three ships, going towards Han Yuan City. Yu Jin didn’t have any plan on telling her soldiers about the fact that Nan Hua was leaving to another city in Zhang Xu Kingdom. She could just easily make an excuse that she was having her Dark Moon Organization business.

Her soldiers and other people around had long known that Dark Moon Organization is an assassination organization.

They naturally wouldn’t pry deeper when she gave that excuse.
