Chapter 120 (1/2)

”I am a friend of your father's Ask him to come out and see me, he'll know,” Su Lin said with a smile

Garen stood to a side an observed their exchange silently Suddenly he heard faint footsteps When he turned around, he saw the boy eaving earlier cautiously stick his head out from the end of the alley in curiosity and look over His small dirty face had a wooden sense to it Two streaks of transparent sticky mucus flowed from his nostrils; he sniffed hard and the mucus was retracted back into his nose

He took a look at hinored hiirl

The two of them were led into the shop and offered two chairs—the cleaner ones of the lot—to sit down on

Soon, a ed man with a full-faced beard pulled aside the tattered cloth partition separating the inner part of the house and walked in He looked like an honest fellow His face was calaze complex with the vicissitudes of life; obviously he had been through a lot

When he walked out, the iave was no different than that of a common blacksmith

Honest, straightforward, strong, crude, and of course, he had oil stains all over him

The first thing that theon the chair He furrowed his brow slightly He wiped the oil stains off his hands on his clothes, walked over and sat down in front of Su Lin and Garen

”It's you? Once I saw you, I knew my peaceful life was over Tell me, what do you need my help for?” His sized Garen up and seemed to have doubts

”Co that promise fro a big loss To think for your sake, I had to…”

”Alright, just come out with it What do you want?”

Su Lin was cut short by the e to finish his sentence

The young boy and girl stood to one side and were left confused by the conversation; they had no idea as going on

Su Lin looked at the from them, so he spoke his mind

”I've run into some trouble”

”What kind of trouble?” The man leaned forward, and took his outer coat off

”Duskdune Shura”

The

Silence filled the air

The man didn't speak, Su Lin didn't speak, and neither did Garen

Affected by the at to a side didn't dare to breathe too heavily either They looked puzzled; the girl even seeuely excited

After a while, Su Lin spoke again

”What's theof yore is now speechless at the mention of Duskdune Shura?”

The man's eyes flashed

”What's the use of re about the past?”

The Eight-Ar!

Garen sitting to a side was instantly stunned He had never heard of this title, but to be able to carry such a nath in the past

Regardless of the field, for one to be called a king, they were definitely no plain characters Not to ed by Su Lin as an absolute co attack from Duskdune Shura!

When he saw the o of that thing with Duskdune Shura before? I don't believe it”

The atain

The youths were ist of it The oldshot in the past He e These two people in front of them had obviously come to ask the old man to come out of retirement

”I thought I could live peacefully till I died of old age I didn't think there would be such a day…” The h ”Unfortunately, I have let it go entirely”

At these words, Garen saw Su Lin's face turned unpleasant

”You're joking?” his voice becaave hter and apprentice toil on in y corner till they die?”

The Eight-Ar to ive you a satisfactory explanation”

”Explanation? What further explanation can you offer?” Su Lin said coldly Suddenly, he took out a piece of so from his front pocket: it was part of an unknown ornament, like a brass hoop It was cracked at the bottom

At the sight of this, the Eight-Ar's eyes immediately widened ”Why is this with you?” his voice becaid In contrast to his calo, he becaerous in an instant

”Don't you bother why it's with me,” Su Lin sneered ”I…”

Snap! The words had barely left his mouth

The Eight-Ar erupted instantly He dreo machetes out with both hands and hacked at Su Lin's arms with a swoosh

Chhhh!

The blades froze to a halt inches above his skin

The Eight-Ar his throat

Bang!

He instantly flew backwards into a pile of debris, and broke numerous items as he went

Garen gave a cold scoff and retracted his arm

”Ridiculous”

Su Lin only ed to react then, and started to break out in cold sweat Although he could hold his own, coood in close quarters Even Garen, asn't fast, had quicker reactions than he

”This is your so-called expert?” Garen frowned at Su Lin ”Weak”
