Forgotten Legend of the Bloodied Flower

660 First Meeting as Assassin

Lan Qiu was looking at the black clothed youth in front of him warily. He had dealt with one of the Black Gulf member, but he was not sure whether the person in front of him was an enemy or friend. This person wore black cloth that covered his mouth and head, making one unable to discern his real appearance.

Emperor Yang Zhou moved his line of sight towards Long Qian Xing. "Your reinforcement?"

Long Qian Xing narrowed his eyes and took out his Dark Moon Organization token, which had the word 'Zhi' written on it. "Long Qian Xing, the one who issue the mission."

Nan Hua looked at Long Qian Xing and contemplated for a moment before showing her token. It was not her token as the leader of Dark Moon Organization but her second token, which was her number token.

Since Nan Hua had assumed number 9, she naturally had the token that represented her identity. It contained the word 'Jiu' and below that was the word Gen (root) which represented her position among the top of Dark Moon Organization.

"Jiu."

Only one word came out of her mouth, but it was enough for both Emperor Yang Zhou and Long Qian Xing to understand who 'he' was.

Dark Moon Organization could be said to be the only organization that operated within Fei Yang Kingdom that used number to mark their experts. It was said that there were a total of 9 experts at the top of their organization which carried number in their name.

No one knew their real name.

They were simply addressed in accordance to their number.

However, their skills were all at the top of the batch. Many other organizations didn't dare to make a move against Dark Moon Organization because of the existences of these numbered masters.

They were too powerful.

'Gen.' Long Qian Xing noticed the word below the word nine and nodded. He hadn't had the chance to increase the ranking of this token in his hand, but he had known that the rank of this person in front of him was two above him.

It was hard to increase one's rank in Dark Moon Organization.

"Thank you for coming personally. Come with me inside. The others will be alarmed because of the commotion just now."

Nan Hua looked at Long Qian Xing before following them from a distance away. It was a safety distance since the two group didn't trust each other enough to allow the other party to stay close to them.

"This…" Lan Qiu was stunned.

"Don't ask anything." Long Qian Xing passed a glance at that Imperial Guard as he walked towards the passage.

Lan Qiu made the motion to shut his mouth. Even though he really wanted to know why there was an assassin amongst their rank, he didn't dare to ask that question in fear that he would be silenced.

He just felt that Young Commander Long sure had his secrets.

And he was not allowed to tell anyone about this matter if he still wanted to keep his head above his neck.

Klek!

The door opened and the group went inside. Long Qian Xing swept his gaze across the room in front of him as his eyebrows furrowed. He directly walked towards the other door and tried to open it.

"Someone is locking this door from the other side." Long Qian Xing's eyes turned cold. "Who else knows about this place?"

"Only the direct member of Imperial Family and you." Emperor Yang Zhou turned around and looked at the door. "And now there are a lot of people who knows."

If only the place was right, Long Qian Xing really wanted to bet with Emperor Yang Zhou about the person who leaked the whereabouts of this safe passage. This place was built not long ago after the incident where Emperor Yang Zhou nearly lost his life in his younger brother's hand.

No one was allowed to know about this place and those who participated to make this passage had all died. It was supposed to be a safe passage that could be used to escort Emperor Yang Zhou out.

Now that this happened, it meant that someone had managed to find out about it.

No, someone must have leaked the whereabouts of this hidden passage within this supposed ordinary room.

"Build another one when this is over." Long Qian Xing walked towards the other door. He planned to leave because this was not the only route they could take, but his expression changed when he sensed danger. "Lay down!"

Tak!

A dagger stuck on the wall behind them while Long Qian Xing retreated from the door. The others had also laid down on the ground to prevent themselves gotten hit from the daggers.

Tak! Tak! Tak!

Several more daggers were thrown to the door before several people appeared. They looked towards the four people inside the room and seemed to be surprised when they saw Nan Hua among the other three.

"They're all here."

"This one…"

"Dark Moon Organization." One of them recognized the token Nan Hua hung on her hips. "And a high ranked one at that."

Nan Hua swept her gaze across the people in front of her calmly. They were supposed to be only facing Long Qian Xing at this time, but now that she was here, they would also be facing her.

Their number didn't seem to change that much from the information she had from the story she read. It seemed that the interference she had made at the outer courtyard didn't affect these people at all.

'Dark Moon Organization?'

Lan Qiu felt that his brain was roasted just now. He knew that the person in front of him was powerful, but he didn't expect to hear the name of that organization. Not only that…

How in the world Long Qian Xing had some relation with that organization?

Dark Moon Organization based their operation at the border and rarely affected the Capital City. Now there was a high ranked member who came directly to the palace because of a mission Long Qian Xing issued?

Someone please tell him that he was not dreaming!
