'My granddaughter is amazing.'
That was all Old Master Nan could think of after some time had passed. He heard commotion from the back and saw his three grandchildren had returned. Feng Ao Si looked battered but he didn't seem to be wounded that badly since he was quite resilient.
On the other hand, both Nan Luo and Feng Ao Kuai looked quite refreshed.
"Try not to get too worked up. You have to be presentable in front of the Emperor in a few days' time." Old Master Nan sighed.
"Don't worry, we know how to hold back." Nan Luo grinned.
Feng Ao Kuai nodded his head as if he was agreeing to his cousin's words. ƒrēewebnoѵёl.cσm
Only Feng Ao Si felt that he had been wronged. He was only saying the truth and yet these two had to beat him up so badly that he felt that his entire body hurt. There was no way he could say that he was fine!
"Go and have some rest. You did great on the battlefield."
"Yes!"
Even though the three of them wanted to train more, their body didn't really seem to allow that. They could only do some warm up to exercise lightly before they rested. After all, the intense battle had occurred for the entire week for the joint war.
They had barely rested at that time because the situation was very tense. They were fighting at the frontline with so many people's life on the line. If they had failed…
Fei Yang Kingdom was no more.
Thus, their mental state had been very tense for the past few days. Their body was also tired after the long journey after that brutal war. Now, it was time for them to relax a bit before they started more intense training.
At least, that was the plan.
Nighttime.
Old Master Nan sensed faint presence in his room, so he opened his eyes. He glanced at the side and saw Nan Hua stood there, still donning on the silver mask that she wore when she assumed the identity of Nan.
"Hua'er," Old Master Nan called out.
"Grandfather," Nan Hua greeted back. Her eyes were looking at her grandfather's leg, trying to gauge the healing process from this distance.
Old Master Nan chuckled. "There's no need to worry so much. I didn't use my leg at all as you have told me. I should heal completely in a few more days."
Nan Hua nodded and silently took off the silver mask. Without the mask, her youthful appearance was clear to anyone who saw her. After several months not seeing his granddaughter, Old Master Nan felt that Nan Hua had grown even more beautiful. Her cheek had lost a bit more of her baby fat, making her chin look a bit sharper. Instead of making her look thin, it instead highlighted her charm even more.
Her pitch black eyes were clear while her willow eyebrows looked indifferent. No matter which angle they saw her, everyone would term her as an icy beauty. Yet, Old Master Nan could see the caring expression deep within her eyes.
He smiled.
