Within the carriage was a brawny Cliff Race youth, hishiroaned under his weight
Next to the brawny Cliff Race youth was a small old man who pointed down the path in front of them and said, “The fork is just ahead of us Both paths will take you to your destination The left path is around thirty kiloht, but I recoht path”
“Why is that?” the brawny Cliff Race youth asked in a low,the left path, of course The left path will take you through athat way is pretty dangerous,” the old man replied
“Bandits?” Iron Cliff squinted his eyes slightly
He turned around and said, “Master, he said there arethe left side”
“Is that so? Then let’s go to the left,” an indifferent voice floated out of the carriage
“Yah!” The horse carriage turned, entering the left-?” The oldthis, and his entire body stiffened
The carriage’s curtains were drawn back, revealing the face of a young maiden Her skin was on the darker side, but she had sohed as she looked at the old man, “Grandpa, what are you so worried about? Prince Su is an extre to worry about Besides, Uncle Iron Cliff alone would be enough to defeat ten of them”
Iron Cliff’s face twitched when he heard the little girl call hie as Su Chen, but because he appeared older, the little girl called his master a Prince but himself an Uncle
