nTranquil atmosphere.

nBut Nan Hua knew that it was nothing more than how things looked like on the surface while there were many battles behind it.

nShe turned to look at the front as she had already reached the edge of the first mountain. From here, she could see the second mountain and also the location where the Mountain Tribes were actually staying.

nIt’s beautiful.

nAnd she had been found out.

nNan Hua turned to look above her and saw a man wearing a mask standing there. He was looking in Nan Hua’s direction warily but didn’t many any notion to step forward. Even though he was keeping his distance, his instinct must have been telling him that if he stepped forward, he would be embroiled in a very difficult battle.

nThat was why he kept his distance.

n

n“Who are you?” the man finally asked.

nNan Hua looked at the person in front of her and answered calmly, “Jun Hua from Dark Moon Organization.”

n“Never heard of you.”

nThat was because Nan Hua hadn’t officially used this name for many matters yet. Even if she was participating in the battle, she came as Nan beside Nan Luo instead of as part of Dark Moon Organization.

n“I’m looking for the leader.”

n“I’m the leader.”

n“You?” Nan Hua shook her head. “You’re not worthy to be the leader.”

nEven if the man managed to find her whereabouts and sensed her when she was close enough, his skills were still lower than her. She had found him first and even noticed that he could sense her.

nThe man frowned. “Leave or I won’t be polite.”

nNan Hua stood still.

nIt was always easier to ask for something after showing one’s power and might. After all, it was the ability that would grant her a privilege to meet with their leader.

nSwish!

nThe man disappeared and appeared in front of Nan Hua. His hand was holding a curved sword as he tried to cut through Nan Hua.

nSwish!

nBending her body to the back, Nan Hua avoided the attack just a few millimeters away. The tip of the blade almost reached her neck, but that few differences of distance was what allowed her to keep her life.

nNan Hua looked at the man’s movement and stepped to the side.

nSwish!

nThe second curved sword passed through the air, not far from her.

n

nSwish! Swish! Swish!

nEvading the attack, Nan Hua always maintained the very short distance between her and the weapon. Yet, the man was unable to cross that short distance as he had already stretched his body and used all of his strength in his attacks.

n‘Slow.’

nNan Hua could see all of the man’s attack.

nIt was too slow for her.

nSwish! Slash!

nTaking out her dagger, Nan Hua’s body stepped forward and her dagger swung towards the man’s chest.

nIt ripped his clothes.

nYet, it didn’t touch his skin at all.

nThen, Nan Hua turned around towards the man’s back by using one of her legs as the pivot. Her hand then rested there with her dagger pointed straight at the man’s heart.

nThe man stood still as he felt Nan Hua’s blade was pointed at his heart from the back. He didn’t dare to move as he knew very well that his life was in Nan Hua’s hand right now. During the short period when he clashed against her, he couldn’t counter anything at all.

nIt was as if he was facing his leader.

nNo matter what he did, his leader would be able to counter his attack perfectly and brought him down.

nAll that left was sense of helplessness.

n“Bring me to your leader.” Nan Hua was still as calm as before.

nThe man narrowed his eyes. He then reached to his chest to take a bamboo flute to call the other men but Nan Hua reacted faster. She switched her hand’s position and hit the man’s back neck.

nPeng! Thud!

nOne hit to cause him unconscious.

nNan Hua didn’t want to kill anyone because she came here to make negotiation. Killing these people would be a useless attempt that might even cause her plan to fall into the ditch.

nShe turned to look at the second mountain once more.

nSwish!

nHer body moved swiftly across the trees and bushes. This man should have some position within the Mountain Tribe, but his skill was indeed not enough.

nAnd from the way the man behaved, it seemed that she was not the first opponent where he could only feel helplessness.

nIn that case, she would continue.

nSwish!

n

nEntering the second mountain, Nan Hua noticed that the atmosphere was somewhat different. She looked up and narrowed her eyes.

nIf she was not wrong, beyond this mountain was their village and also the location where the women and children were staying. It meant that she was already close to their living location.

nShould she proceed?

nNot many people could even reach this location as they would have already hindered by the many guards the people who were roaming around the mountain. Because of that, the information about this place was very limited.

nEven though Nan Hua had Dark Moon Organization, it was not an omnipotent organization that could gather all information. She didn’t know this area for sure as compared to the areas where she usually stayed.

nBut Nan Hua was not afraid.

nWhile coming in blindly was not really something she liked to do, it was still something that she was capable of doing because she had confidence in her survival skill. At the very least, she was confident that she would be able to stay alive.

nSwish!

nHer body nimbly moved upwards.

nAs she climbed up, the number of people increased and their skills were all considerably better than the guards at the first mountains. However, they were not as good as that man she encountered earlier.

nThen, Nan Hua stopped.

nShe swiftly sidestepped to the side as something was thrown to the place where she previously stood.

nSwish! Jleb!

nA dagger was embedded on the ground.
