Bai Yin was crying buckets as she felt her right hand's pain grew more intense. Right now, she would do anything just to make the pain disappear.Cheêck out latest novels at novelhall.com

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.

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!
