Chapter 354 Chen Yuan’s Song

"I\'ll come back later. Settle this matter first."

Si Mo Fan looked at Nan Hua for a moment. "Are you not worried that I\'ll not do in accordance to what you want?"

"If you don\'t follow, you\'ll face the consequences."

It was as simple as that.

Nan Si passed a look at Nan Liang, who was frowning. Since his \'older brother\' looked so conflicted, it would be better for him to tell him about what had happened to Nan San. That way, they wouldn\'t think about trying to challenge Nan Hua without knowing what she was actually capable of.

Si Mo Fan\'s lips twitched slightly. He nodded. "Alright."

With that, Nan Hua delved into the cave once more. She had to return to the camp before it was dawn or her cousins would be worried. Besides, her current identity was not too suitable for her to roam around.

Fei Mao looked at the others and cupped his fist before following Nan Hua.

"Dear, what\'s going on?" Yan Xi asked carefully. She had guessed that the young girl just now was not ordinary, but she didn\'t expect that her husband would be so careful when he was dealing with her.

"It\'s nothing much." Si Mo Fan took a deep breath and brushed his legs on the ground to erase that small words. Since Nan Hua was writing for them, she didn\'t write the word too big. "I need to settle some problem. Si Bai, stay with your mother."

"Yes, Father."

"Nan Liang, stay here. Nan Si… what\'s the order for you?"

"Just leading the way." Nan Si stretched his body as he instinctively moved to the darker area. He looked at the cave. "I\'m going."

Swish!

As simple as that, Nan Si disappeared once more. He had already whispered about what Nan Hua did to Nan Liang. That should be enough to serve as warning. Of course, if they wanted to try anything funny, that would depend on whether they were capable enough to do that or not.

Nan Liang looked at Si Mo Fan as his mouth opened and closed like a koi fish. He really wanted to ask the Heaven why someone as monstrous as Nan Hua even paid attention to their small organization.

Wasn\'t there other organization that she could pick aside from theirs?

"Nan Liang, you\'ll be in charge to help me."

"Yes."

Yan Xi looked at her husband worriedly but in the end, she restrained whatever words she was about to say. She knew that things wouldn\'t be peaceful anymore.

…

"Nan Si."

"Yes, Master."

"Where\'s Leader Dong?"

Nan Si\'s eyes flickered. Nan Hua had heard the name of Leader Dong from the time when she took over the Dark Moon Organization\'s branch. He thought for a moment before answering.

"Leader Dong is the leader of Dark Moon Organization\'s branch in the north of Fei Yang Kingdom."

"North?"

Nan Hua narrowed her eyes. The north was not part of her grandfather\'s territory because it bordered Zhang Xu Kingdom. The general who held the border was another person.

It seemed that she had to pay a visit there in the future when there was a chance.

But Nan Hua knew that it wouldn\'t be anytime soon. Her current identity and the fact that her strength was still not enough was limiting her from doing what she wanted. If she wanted to head there, she would have to wait at least a few more years.

She herself was not sure when it would be.

"Help me send a letter to Leader Dong, informing him about his sister\'s condition. I\'m sure that he will want to find out the truth first." Nan Hua narrowed her eyes. It would be hard for her to investigate the other organizations and made a move for now.

Since that was the case, she would delegate this task to another person first.

"Yes, Young Miss."

…

Swish!

Nan Hua reached the place where her Master and her senior brother and sister was located. She noticed that Chen Yuan was standing outside with her flute in her hand. Her figure as she stood there looked lonely.

"Senior Sister Chen," Nan Hua called softly.

Chen Yuan turned her head in the direction of Nan Hua and smiled softly. "Have you finished your matter?"

"Mhm."

From their back, Nan Hua could sense several people who were following Chen Yuan\'s order. However, they didn\'t try to follow her or even investigate what she was doing. It seemed that the basic respect for other disciples was to not doing investigation on each other.

They would just wait until the other party wanted to share them something. Even if they managed to infer something, they didn\'t talk about it until the person himself or herself wanted to talk about it.

"I\'ll be going first. Before that, would you like to listen to my performance?"

Nan Hua looked at the flute on Chen Yuan\'s hand and nodded. "I would like to. It would be an honor, Senior Sister Chen."

*chuckle*

Chen Yuan raised the tip of the bamboo flute to her mouth before beautiful melody rang out. In this quiet night, it sounded loud, yet the sound strangely harmonious with the sound of the wind. It was as if the song was made with the nature in mind.

The beginning was calm and slightly lively.

In Nan Hua\'s eyes, she seemed to be able to see a young child who was playing around happily with her family. Smiling all the time, joking around with her brothers and family members.

It was a harmonious scene.

Then the note changed.

It turned somber and dark as if storm was raging on. The tone changed rapidly, depicting the brutal change that occurred. A seemingly misplaced tone sounded like a scream in the midst of the raging storm.

The picture was no longer the happy young girl, but it was now filled with despair, anger, and disbelief.

It sounded so heartbreaking that one wouldn\'t be able to withstand listening to the tone all the time.

The tone turned longer as if the young girl was drifting along before it turned somewhat melancholic. It still sounded sad, but there was some strong tone mixed in. It was as if the song was saying that one should stay strong in the midst of adversity.

Afterwards, the song entered another lively segment. Even though she was already in the midst of despair, there was hope and help.

Thus, the tone turned somewhat fast as the girl took back what belonged to her.

Then what?

The tone was soul stirring as it slowed down, as if depicting confusion. One who lost her way and unable to find a way out. However, she was not alone as the tone gradually grew warmer and more peaceful.

She was still alive and that meant, there would be future.

She was not alone as even after that soul stirring experience, there were still people around her who would accompany her.

After a long note in the end, the song finally ended.

Chen Yuan opened her eyes. There was no light within her eyes and her pupil remained unfocused. However, there was a hint of melancholic within it as she tried to look in the direction where Nan Hua was staying. "It\'s not ended yet."

Raising her head, Nan Hua acknowledged softly.
