Chapter 753: Battle Against Great General Nan (1)

Unlike Old Master Nan who looked troubled, Nan Hua was as calm as ever. Her clear black eyes shifted to look outside. It was still summer and there were a lot of people walking around under the scorching gaze of the sun.         

    

"Are you not worried, Hua'er?" Old Master Nan was helpless.     

"He wouldn't be able to find anything." Nan Hua shifted her gaze back. Her black obsidian eyes looked extremely clear just like the surface of mirror. "And even if he did, he wouldn't think in this direction."     

Old Master Nan was speechless.     

He didn't know why his granddaughter was so confident in herself, but he felt that it was also good for her to know and be confident. He believed in her ability since he had seen for himself just what she was capable to do, but he was still worried for his granddaughter.     

If she was pulled to get involved in the messy political scheme, he would not care about anything and barge in with his sword in his hand.     

"Don't try to get involved too deeply. Those people are too annoying."     

"I won't, Grandfather."     

Old Master Nan sighed. He didn't want to control his granddaughter and looking at her gaze, he didn't think that he would be able to control her either.     

"Speaking of Nan Family Residence." Old Master Nan switched the conversation. "You have several months of preparations, why did you only make rapid movement for the past two to three weeks?"     

"It's the right time." Nan Hua was calm.     

"Is it not because of you trying to retrieve your memory?"     

Seeing his granddaughter's eyes were still without any ripple, Old Master Nan wondered what kind of news would be able to shake her up. Most of the time, even the most surprising piece of news didn't affect her at all.

"Luo told me."     

"I see."     

"You're not surprised."     

"I know Luo."     

In short: she could guess what her twin brother would do.     

Since Nan Hua had decided to tell Nan Luo about the fact that she had lost most of her memories during the time she was in Nan Shu Cheng's Residence, she knew that he would tell Old Master Nan about it.     

There was no way he wouldn't.     

The two of them were the closest family members to her.     

Old Master Nan smiled bitterly and reached out towards Nan Hua. He patted her head tenderly. "It's fine if you can't remember many things. In my eyes, you'll always be the same Nan Hua. Whether you remember or not didn't matter."     

"Mhm."     

Nan Hua nodded softly, allowing her grandfather to mess her hair. She didn't know why but in front of her grandfather and her twin brother, she didn't mind getting close to them.     

Probably, it was because she had truly seen them as her family members.     

"When we get back, I'll have a spar with you."         

    

"Grandfather, your wound…"     

"Don't worry. Do you think I can't defeat little brat like you?" Old Master Nan let out a hearty laugh. He looked at his granddaughter and smiled faintly. "You need to know the difference between a real general and those who only assumed the position without understanding the meaning."     

Understanding through a battle?     

While Nan Hua didn't know why her grandfather wanted her to have an understanding through a fight, she still agreed. It was really hard for her to reject the request coming from her grandfather or her twin brother.     

The journey from the palace to Nan Family Residence didn't take a long time.     

Stepping on the familiar courtyard again, Nan Hua felt at ease. It was the Ning Shu Pavilion, the place where she spent her days training when she first arrived in this world. Back then, her twin brother and sometimes her cousins too, would be here and train with her.     

Now, they had already gone to the battlefield first.     

"Take out your sword."     

Nan Hua turned around and saw that her grandfather's aura had changed. Her eyes narrowed slightly as her body tensed up. Even before her grandfather do anything, her instinct had told her that her grandfather had become the most dangerous person to her.     

Old Master Nan was not in a hurry as he took out a long glaive. It was actually the weapon that he used in the battlefield aside from sword when he was riding the horse. In fact, he was better at using glaive rather than sword.     

But of course, he used sword more because his body couldn't withstand using the glaive again.     

It was harder to control than sword and strained his body more than his age allowed him to.     

"Come." Old Master Nan's gaze was sharp.     

In the shadow, Hou Lin took a deep breath as his gaze focused on the two people in front of him. He knew that should the situation called for it, he would have to stop them.

When Old Master Nan turned serious, there were times when he couldn't control his strength well. He wouldn't want to hurt his granddaughter, but he wanted to teach her the difference between martial artist and a general.     

This was the only method.     

A true life and death battle.     

"Pardon me."     

Swish!     

Nan Hua no longer hesitated and used her best speed to rush towards her grandfather. She naturally would not use her needles but rather her sword.     

Clang!     

The crisp sound of metal clashing with each other could be heard.     

Nan Hua noticed that her sword was blocked, so she swiftly retracted it and then swung it forward again. Her reaction was swift and fast, aiming towards another vital point of her grandfather.     

Clang! Clang! Clang!     

The moment they started fighting, Old Master Nan was focusing to defend from Nan Hua's attack. Her speed was very swift and if he dared to blink even once, he might lose her and then lost his life.         

    

In terms of speed and reaction alone, Nan Hua was top notch.     

But real battlefield was not only about defending.     

Swish! Slash!
