Clang! Swish!

Nan Luo's eyes gradually grew more focused as his evasion grew swifter. He knew that if he made even the slightest bit of mistake he would die, but there was no fear from the bottom of his heart.

This was not the first time.

Nan Family was that of general family. While Nan Luo would not be brought to the frontline, it didn't mean that he was oblivious to the things that they had to do. Old Master Nan had brought his grandson to help deal with the assassins who came occasionally to their residence.

In the past, Old Master Nan also brought his son, Nan Shu Cheng. However, the performance Nan Shu Cheng showed from time to time was thoroughly disappointing that Old Master Nan no longer held much hope.

Nan Luo was different.

Before today, he had already killed a lot of people who came to Nan Family Residence under his grandfather's guidance. They were all people who wanted to kill him and his sister, so if he didn't kill them, he would be the one to die.

Thus, Nan Luo didn't have any hesitation.

Clang!

'Tsk, how come I can't even push him back?'

Nan Luo noticed how Commander Hai effortlessly blocked his attacks as he continued to evade. His eyebrows furrowed as he looked at Long Qian Xing. It was similar with Long Qian Xing but the power that Long Qian Xing could muster was above that of Nan Luo.

If this continued, the two of them wouldn't be able to defeat Commander Hai.

What should he do?

Clang!

Parrying the attack, Nan Luo side stepped to the side. His small body gave him utter disadvantages. As for sneak attack, it would be impossible to do so in front of this powerful commander, thus what should he do?

"Watch out!"

- Nan Hua's side -

Nan Hua stood before Hou Lin as she looked at the shadow guard before her. It would take too long for her to explain everything to him, so she waved her hand. "Follow me."

"Young Miss?" Hou Lin was stunned.

But seeing Nan Hua moved to the left path, Hou Lin felt his heart thumped in disbelief. How did she know that there was another path over here? All the secret paths in the palace was perfectly hidden to the point that there was no one who would know aside from those who were close to the Imperial Family.

Even in the Imperial Family, not everyone knew the paths.

Nan Hua clearly didn't know what Hou Lin was thinking. She found this path because compared to the tricks that the modern people used, the ancient world's secret passage was moderately simpler. She knocked on the wall and the floor lightly, trying to discern the difference in the noise.

If there was a hole below, the sound would be different.

'The right side passage is heading to the path inside the palace, so they had to break through the gate first. However, the left side passage is heading straight outside and had long been left unattended.'

Awful smell came out from the passage.

Hou Lin scrunched his nose because he knew full well why this left passage was left out. It was built at much older time than the right side passage, thus the entrance was no longer smooth and already covered with pile of dirty water.

If they entered and their smells were covered with these, they would surely be found out and couldn't sneak around.

"Young Miss, this is inappropriate. Leave it to Old Master and Young Master…."

Nan Hua didn't listen to Hou Lin. She crouched near the door and silently pulled some of the herbs there. After she was done, she took out her knife and inserted it in the stone slabs that served as the ceiling.

Boom! Splash!

The stones fell apart, dropped right on top of the awful puddle of water. At the same time, it also created a hole at the wall that was just perfect for her to sneak inside. It was just… such damage would surely be found later on.

"Find another way for you."

Nan Hua didn't want to destroy more of the wall since the noise would attract people to come here. She slipped inside easily without falling to the hole below and entered the palace.

Hou Lin's lips twitched horribly. While he knew that the walls here were right above the passage, he would never think of destroying it just to enter inside. Besides, he could see that the rocks were already quite bad, so people would only think that it was falling because of old age.

How clever.

Wait, it was not the time for him to be admiring Nan Hua's thinking. He ran to the back and then rushed forward, kicking the wall as a method to jump to the top. His body seemed as light as feather as he jumped across the wall.

Nan Hua noticed him doing that and wondered just how high was their martial arts to be able to do that. Wasn't the wall in the palace designed in order to prevent anyone from jumping right above it?

She would ask later.

Knock! Knock!

Lightly knocking on the door, Nan Hua listened to the sound below, following the route of the left side passage. The palace consisted of several buildings at the perimeter, so Nan Hua had to circle around a few times.

In the end, the passage finally crossed a building, right below a storage room.

Nan Hua crouched down and knocked below. The sound was different and it seemed to be structure that was made out of wood.

Swish! Jleb!

Using the sword instead of her knife, Nan Hua pierced through the floor. She could sense that the sword didn't face any other resistance, so she continued in other places to form a square.

Jleb! Jleb! Jleb! Thud!

The wood fell to the ground and it was completely pitch black below. Nan Hua could faintly sense the airways from some holes that was made to allow one to breathe inside.

"Let's go."
