Golden Dragon Swordsman S2

Fulfilling Grandma's Promise

On the side of the main road to the palace, there was an old woman sitting limp, next to her was a boy wearing only shorts barefoot.

The boy held the grandmother's shoulder. "Come on, she said she wanted to buy me a shirt."

The old woman was still speechless, her mind drifting imagining that her husband and child were still alive, perhaps her fate would be better. But poverty has taken both. At the age that is no longer young, he should be able to enjoy his old age calmly, but fate says otherwise. Since the death of her husband and son in the service of the soldier, the old woman had to work odd jobs until sickly, just to make enough of her life with her granddaughter.

"Life is only temporary, so even this misery is temporary. The Creator will not burden the trials that man cannot endure." The old woman's mind to sow herself.

"Lu Ping's..." The old woman turned around, stood on her knees and hugged the boy beside her. "I'm sorry Grandma, not the broken grandmother, but Grandma's pocket of money has been snatched away by the snatcher."

The boy scratched his hair while nodding.

"Grandmother's coin is in that bag, not only can we not buy clothes for you, but we can't eat tonight either." The old woman's eyes were glazed.

The road users who pass by do not care, but maybe they are busy with their respective affairs. Not a few who ask, "What's wrong?"

But the old woman was reluctant to answer, because at the time of the shooting, many did not care about her screams, asking for help.

"But Grandma, didn't grandma say that speech had to be kept? The man in his hand is his speech?"

The old woman could only let out a long sigh, she did not expect that the advice she taught would turn to her. The old woman fell silent, her mind trying to find a strand of words to explain, but there was nothing she considered appropriate to explain to her granddaughter.

The old woman began to move her lips in doubt, she was not sure the answer would fix things or rather the other way around, but just now she wanted to open her voice, suddenly a person's voice sounded.

"Smart child, of course your grandmother will keep her word." The luxurious white-robed youth smiled warmly, Arya had heard the conversation of the two.

The boy was silent, his mouth agape at the aura emanating from Aryan's smile.

"What's your name, little boy?" Arya gently rubbed the boy's hair.

"My name is Lu Ping." Said the boy.

"Lu Ping, let's get your grandmother to fulfill her words."

The old woman looked at Arya, there were many questions from the look in her eyes. "But young master!"

"My name is Li Xian, grandma can call me by that name." Arya smiled kindly.

Across the street, there was someone listening to their conversation. The person watched Arya carefully before smiling thinly and then passing away.

Feeling as if he was being watched, Arya turned her head but she could not confirm who the person who had been watching her was because too many people passed by.

The old woman got up, walking closer towards Arya. "Master Li Xian, today this old lady is getting a trial, don't you add to it again by inviting me to my words."

"Alright, if you force the young."

The old woman holding her granddaughter walked in front, Arya followed from behind.

Hulao and Honglong were no longer with Arya, as the two of them were currently heading towards the royal gate with Sui Liong and his companions. Arya asks Sui Liong to help Hulao and Honglong become soldiers, of course, aiming to investigate people suspected of being black warriors or infiltrating demonic animals.

After walking for a while, they then entered a clothing store that looked lonely, the old woman seemed to have deliberately chosen a quiet shop so that she did not feel ashamed by the sight of others.

"Sir, please give ten pairs of clothes to this child and grandmother."

The old woman and her granddaughter widened their eyes at Arya's words. That's too much according to them.

The shopkeeper looked at Arya, "Alright young master, please wait a moment."

As a shop owner who is already experienced in the trading business, he certainly knows which people join, which ones do not. Looking at Arya's appearance, made the shop owner's feelings waver.

The owner of the store helped some of his employees collect clothes. Not only did the 20 pairs of clothes they collected, but the 50 pairs of clothes they spread out in front of Arya. Then the store owner began to explain the quality of the clothing material that he showed following with the price.

Arya stared at the clothes at a glance, because she did not have much time, she also said she would buy everything.

The shopkeeper's eyes twinkled, a smile splashing on his lips. He hurriedly calculated the price of the 50 pairs of clothes. "The total is 30 gold pieces young master."

Arya took out 30 pieces of gold from her shirt, making the shopkeeper even more enthusiastic because there was no offer from the young man.

Many times the store owner thanked me, and told me to come back if I wanted to buy clothes.

After leaving the clothing store, the old lady walked up to Arya. "It's too much sir, we'll have the hassles of carrying it. I really can't repay you, sir, besides I don't have a penny at all, my pocket of money has been snatched."

Arya smiled, then took out a black pouch from under her clothes. "Is this your coin bag, Grandma?"

The old woman looked carefully at the coin bag, saw that there was a knit flower and star emblem, and the old woman nodded.

"That's the treasure we have, please take master so that my debt burden does not increase." Said the old woman while looking down.

"No, no, I paid for all the clothes with the coins in my grandmother's pocket. There is no debt between us.." Arya handed the bag of coins she had in her hand to the old woman.

The old woman still insisted on not accepting the coin bag, in the end Arya gave the bag to a son who was none other than the granddaughter of the grandmother.

With an innocent face, the little boy named Lu Ping smiled broadly at Arya. But his grandmother immediately took the coin bag to be handed back to Arya.

But when the old woman wanted to hand over the coin bag, Arya was no longer seen standing there. In astonishment, the old woman circulated a glance around looking for the young man.
