What happens to Madam? Nan Hua\'s eyes turned cold.

Master surely referred to Nan Shu Cheng while Madam referred to her mother. Since she didn\'t have any memory of Nan Hua before she came over, she never knew what happened to her mother. Not only that, the novel also never mentioned much about Nan Hua\'s mother.

All she knew was that the latter had died when Nan Hua was still very young, which was around 8 years old.

But aside from that, there was not much information regarding Nan Family either.

It was just a side character that was not worth mentioning.

"You poison Madam?" Hou Lin asked, his tone quivering in anger.

Bai Yin shook his head. "It\'s not me… It\'s Master… My task is just to make sure that no one will ever find out… ah…"

Another needle made its way towards Bai Yin. Nan Hua was looking at the woman in front of her with her usual indifferent gaze. "In that case, where do you come from? Your martial arts shouldn\'t be from normal location."

Martial arts?

Right now, Bai Yin\'s eyes widened. Whenever she was with anyone else, she would never reveal that she had martial arts. How come Nan Hua realized that she had learned martial arts?

"I didn\'t…"

Nan Hua raised her hand and another needle had entered Bai Yin\'s body. Her eyes were cold. "You won\'t be able to use martial arts again from now."

"You…*cough* *cough*…"

Blood spurt out from Bai Yin. She could feel the weakness that came from her body and the fact that there was no longer any trace of energy. Her heart constricted as she looked at Nan Hua in horror. To be able to destroy someone\'s else martial arts with just a few needles…

How did she do that?

"If you don\'t want to speak, I\'ll cut your tongue out." Nan Hua looked at Bai Yin without any change in her expression.

Not only Bai Yin, even Hou Lin shivered a bit when he heard Nan Hua\'s coldness. Nan Hua\'s indifference attitude didn\'t only come out from the surface level but rather from the bottom of her heart. It was as if her entire being truly didn\'t have any emotion and treated these cruel things as the norm.

Bai Yin shook her head and trembled. "No… I… can\'t…If I say it, they\'ll kill my family members."

"Who\'s her family?" Nan Hua looked at Hou Lin.

"Bai Yin had a father and younger brother living in a village." Hou Lin had already investigated the servants who entered Nan Family Residence. There was no way he would let just any stranger to enter.

"If you don\'t say, do you think I can\'t put them in the same position as you?" Nan Hua turned to look at Bai Yin.

The sentence caused Bai Yin to tremble in fear. Tears poured out from her eyes. "No… please… don\'t…"

"Answer."

"I can\'t… Miss, please…"

"I see. There\'s no use of your tongue anymore."

Hou Lin moved before Nan Hua could give order. He stood in front of Bai Yin, scaring the hell out of the girl.

Bai Yin shook her head. "Miss, have you never feel desperate? Please don\'t…"

"Cut off her tongue," Nan Hua gave her order.

Hou Lin forced the girl to open her mouth before cutting off the tongue. Blood filled Bai Yin\'s mouth to the point that she nearly chocked on her own blood.

"It\'s done, Miss."

Nan Hua nodded. She looked at Bai Yin one last time before turning her body around. "Let her be."

"Yes."

Hou Lin didn\'t understand why Nan Hua wanted to leave Bai Yin alive. Right now, Bai Yin was crying while blood poured out from her mouth, yet she couldn\'t even speak anything. She was filled with fear and trepidation from the bottom of her heart.

Just what kind of monster had she been serving all this time?

Bai Yin didn\'t have a chance to feel even the slightest bit of regret as pain assaulted her body. She wanted to scream yet no voice came out. Tears came out and soon turned into blood.

Right now, she didn\'t even know what she should feel anymore.

Nan Hua walked out of the building with Hou Lin followed closely while hiding his figure beneath the building\'s shadow.

Desperate?

The last time she ever felt such an emotion was nearly a decade ago, during the time the organization forced them to throw away the last bit of their emotion. In her past live, they were not allowed to have any emotion because it could interfere with the missions.

She couldn\'t even remember the last emotion she had anymore.

"Miss, have you suspect her from the beginning?" Hou Lin asked. He had investigated the two maidservants that Nan Hua brought along from Nan Shu Cheng\'s Residence but found nothing. To think that Bai Yin was actually a spy, he felt a bit useless.

"Yes."

"Why?"

"I don\'t trust anyone."

Anyone?

Hou Lin looked at Nan Hua then pointed a finger towards himself. How about him?

Nan Hua knew what Hou Lin wanted to ask, so she replied once more, "I trust your loyalty to Grandfather."

While Nan Hua didn\'t know Hou Lin well, she knew very well that he was someone who was doing his best to help Old Master Nan. He was also very loyal and it was because he was loyal that she chose to let him knew her real self.

Hou Lin was silent for a while. He didn\'t expect that the trust Nan Hua had to him was because of his loyalty to Old Master Nan.

She really didn\'t trust him.

"Miss, are you sure you want to let her live?"

"Yes."

"Why…"

Before Hou Lin could even finish asking, he sensed danger. He furrowed his eyebrows and disappeared into the darkness.

Nan Hua stood silently in front of the building. Her dark obsidian eyes seemed to shine under the moonlight. "Don\'t leave this place. Guard her."

"Miss, you…"

Drap! Drap!

Nan Hua ran towards her residence in a normal children\'s speed. She didn\'t look any different from normal children right now.

Hou Liang, who was watching from a distance also sensed danger and hurriedly came closer to Nan Hua. He was about to ask when he heard the sound of arrows cutting the wind.

Clang!

Blocking the attack, Hou Liang\'s expression changed. "Prepare for battle!"

Nan Hua swiftly rushed over to the building. She watched as Xiao Yun took out a knife and also prepared to fight. "Miss, please take cover and be careful."

"I\'ll be fine."

Entering her twin brother\'s room, Nan Hua took the sword that Nan Luo brought along with him. It was not the normal wooden sword for training but real sword that he carried in case something happened.

Bang!

An assassin broke into the room and raised his blade.

"Die!"

Swish! Slash!
