Flowers Bloom from Battlefield

Chapter 195 - Agreement



Jun Hua soon left the capital once again. Despite Jun Qing's and Kuina's strong disagreement about it, she still went to handle some things. Jun Zhenxian supported her and allowed her to go outside the capital and go wherever she wanted to.

After talking with them briefly, she departed with Yasha hiding on the back. Xia actually wanted to come, but Jun Hua didn't allow her since the girl martial arts was not that high compared with the others.

Jun Hua soon arrived in another big city under Mountain Kingdom area. This city was truly famous with the attraction and many others. Although there were limitations for people going out on night, only at this city the regulation was lower and many people can be found on the streets even at midnight.

Jun Hua didn't bother with all the people there and walked straight to the inn where she had Den Kan waited for her. Den Kan was training, but he stopped the moment he saw Jun Hua face.

"I need to talk," Jun Hua said calmly.

Den Kan nodded and headed towards the restaurant on the opposite of the inn. He picked a close room for them to talk as Yasha guarded the door.

"Hua'er, what do you want to talk with me?"

"Your past and grudge," Jun Hua said calmly. "If it's exactly as I thought, I would need your help."

Den Kan sighed and started telling his story.

He was a soldier from Mountain Kingdom many years ago. He enlisted during his youth and on one occasion, he got hurt. The wound was really bad, which made him believed that he won't be able to survive, but there were people coming and help him.

After he was cured, they only have one demand, that was he and his sister joined the organization. At first, he didn't find anything wrong, but then he realized that this was an assassin organization.

Jun Hua cut him at this point. "Did you not ask what organization it is before you join?"

"I don't," Den Kan smiled embarrassedly. It was indeed his careless mistake.

Jun Hua was speechless at her teacher conduct. Who would have thought that in this era there were still people who're that innocent, or in harsher word idiot?

"I don't make any mistake like that anymore," Den Kan explained.

'You better not or you might drag yourself into a bigger problem,' Jun Hua thought in her head. She nodded her head. "Please continue."

"Alright, at first I thought nothing weird with asking us to join since I thought he wanted new members and this organization was a secret. It's normal to ask people to join an organization when I already know a bit about them.

However, I soon found out something different. They didn't only pay attention to me, but also my sister. It was really weird and by the time I noticed it, it was too late."

Seeing the bitter smile on her teacher face, Jun Hua hearts tighten. She could imagine something must have happened to his sister at that time. A thought passed her head.

"Does it have any connection with the technique you passed to me?"

Den Kan nodded his head, "Yes. Somehow, the technique can only be passed down to girls. Because of that the leader was searching for a young maiden to pass the skill of theirs. This skill can only be mastered by a girl with talent in martial arts."

A girl with talent in martial arts.

Jun Hua smiled bitterly. That phrase could also be directed towards her since she managed to learn the technique, despite the limit of how long she could use it.

"Your sister must have good talent in martial art."

Den Kan nodded. "She is better than me in many aspects, including martial arts. So naturally, one of the candidates is her. The process to train them was really cruel, and I can't bear to see my sister train in that place."

"She is not a soldier?" Jun Hua asked.

"No, she's not a soldier," Den Kan stared at Jun Hua with a wry smile. "Did you forget that women were not allowed to go to the battlefield and enlist as a soldier in Mountain Kingdom?"

Yup, she forgot. Some of the kingdom allowed women to join the military while many of them still didn't allow that.

"Please continue."

"I try to run away with her, but failed. I managed to go, but she didn't," Den Kan voice trailed off at this point.

Jun Hua nodded. "You didn't have to tell more than that if you don't want."

Den Kan just nodded his head. "Is this all a surprise for you?"

Jun Hua shook her head. "Not really, I have already thought that you're an assassin."

"How do you know about that?"

"I encounter one of the people from that organization when I was at a battle against the Mountain Kingdom in the past. They told me a bit about this skill."

Den Kan nodded. "I look through the book once when they asked my sister to learn it. When I meet you, I try to pass it to you out of curiosity since the skill can only be learned by girls. But, unexpectedly, you learn even faster than my sister and mastered the technique in short time."

Jun Hua nodded. Born from Jun family, it is possible that she inherited their gene which made her suitable to learn martial arts. When the skill was taught to her, she can learn very quickly.

"Do you know where they are?"

Den Kan rolled his sleeves. There was a mark of two crossed swords. "I only need to show this mark towards a few middlemen in the city and they would take me to the base. But, let me warn you, their skill is not ordinary."

Jun Hua smirked. "We are only there to pay a visit. Why should we worry about them?"

Looking at that smile, he knew that the girl must have planned something again. This little girl was not one that can stay inside her room and waited for everything to be done by others. She wanted to do it by herself.

Jun Hua would surely stir up another trouble in that place. Knowing her skill still didn't ease up his worry. The girls who can learn the skill to maintain their concentration high were rare, but in this organization, there are many of them. He's not sure that Jun Hua can handle all of them by herself.

"I'm not going there on killing spree," Jun Hua mouth twitched a bit upon seeing the expression on Den Kan face. This teacher of hers was truly peculiar. Does he think she doesn't have anything to do and want to do a massacre?

Den Kan nodded solemnly, partially believed her words. Jun Hua didn't mind it and walked towards the busy city. The people there were busy walking here and there, no one pay any attention to them.

The walk was short as they arrived in the place Den Kan meant. He looked around before finally found the same mark, hidden by the darkness on one of the door. This was the secret code for them especially for those who are away for a long time.

Walking towards the door, he knocked.

"What is it?"

"X Empire," Den Kan answered. He showed the mark on his arm from the eyehole on the door.

The man inside stays silent for a moment: "New Hill, number two."

"Thank you."

Den Kan walked away. Despite he was nearly old, he still could walk really quick and reached the place where Jun Hua had waited.

"How is it?"

"It's near here. I can take you there, but it's going to be dangerous," Den Kan warned again. He didn't want to see this little disciple of his hurts.

Jun Hua looked towards him. "It's normal for things to have risk. You just need to escort me to that place and leave everything to me."

"Are you really a 15 year old girl?"

"What do you think?" Jun Hua stared back. The same pair of clear eyes is still there, watching his movement carefully.

Den Kan smiled, she's indeed still the same girl as before, just a little older and more dependable. He will take her there for whatever reason she wanted to.
