The Pembarker of Eternity

CHAPT 28'S. A Trust

"This is the second time I've met senior, would senior not mind junior knowing senior's big name?" Xiao Shan said a little stammered in fear that his request would instead offend the senior swordsman.

But the reality was different from what Xiao Shan had thought, the senior swordsman actually smiled warmly while once again allowing Xiao shan to drink the tea he had suguhi.

The senior swordsman stared at Xiao Shan's goal until a face filled with curiosity appeared.

"Actually I am just an ordinary forger, I have no special name of greatness or origin. Like my previous story I said frankly to you, I've forgotten my name and would rather be called the Iron-Savvy Swordsman."

Senior Swordsman smiled bitterly, his testimony that made him re-route old wounds that he kept.

For a long time he had not told anyone his origin but in contrast to Xiao Shan, the senior swordsman could see clearly if he had a clean heart.

Xiao Shan sensed that what the senior swordsman said was true, subconsciously Xiao Shan gradually felt considerable confidence in the senior swordsman.

"Junior understood, junior will continue to keep the senior's identity a secret as long as senior wishes."

"I trust you anyway, you don't have to worry about me because I'm not going to be around much longer"

Xiao Shan frowned as if in disbelief had heard such a statement easily coming out of the senior swordsman's mouth.

If only there were people with evil purposes then it did not rule out the possibility that it would be used, especially because the senior swordsman had many heirlooms and priceless treasures.

Xiao Shan again asked stammeredly "What's the reason? is senior sick?"

"It's not a disease, it's probably more precisely because of the effects of the science I've learned, I've violated its restrictions, the explanation is quite complicated but know I'm almost at my age."

"How much longer can senior survive?" That question reflexively came out of Xiao Shan's mouth.

The senior swordsman smiled bitterly "I'm not sure, but at the maximum I can only last up to 3 more years."

"Is there any way that seniors can last longer? tell me, junior will do anything if needed."

The senior swordsman shook for quite a while, then he took a breath "There is only one way, but it can't help much, it might only add 2 years to my age."

"Junior please just say it, junior will try his best." Xiao Shan said solemnly despite knowing it would definitely not be easy.

"You know it's very hard to do, I don't want you to waste your time on me, let alone owe me nothing.

In this martial world debt becomes an absolute law that must be paid even with life as a bet.

For the sacrifice of large debts can be used as capital as collateral and become a necessity to be fulfilled.

Xiao Shan was well aware of the rule, without the debt the senior swordsman would not accept his help for free.

Plus it was the senior swordsman who had been in debt to Xiao Shan at his previous request and it was Xiao Shan who had not asked him anything so it was very hard for him to receive help a second time.

"Shan you know it can't be like that, it's only natural considering we met once for a trust, it must be really hard for you."

"How about the sword that senior gave, the sword is priceless, junior hope it deserves to be in debt."

"I, who broke your sword, it is fitting that I change it. For now, you don't have to think too much." The senior swordsman immediately moved from his seat as if he was heading towards the backyard.

The senior swordsman paused his steps for a moment and turned his head towards Xiao Shan who was still sitting on that beautifully engraved chair.

"I hear you've never seen a human being fly, will I show you? who knows, you're interested in learning." The senior swordsman smiled as he tilted his head towards the back.

Not waiting for the time to think, Xiao Shan who was driven by curiosity also immediately moved to follow where the senior swordsman was going.

The torch flames were getting brighter since the night was getting more and more dense, the cold wind felt extremely strong as they exited the senior swordsman's new residence.

But the expressions of the two did not show any signs of an agitated person receiving a drastic change in temperature.

One of the advantages of warriors who had already reached the level of celestial swordsmen was having a high tolerance of drastic temperature changes, so Xiao Shan did not feel too much of the bone-chilling cold. While the senior swordsman.

"Ahh I really like this place, just like where I came from when I was a blacksmith, so quiet and peaceful." The senior swordsman stared at the azure sky, pitch-white smoke coming out from his mouth and nose as the breath blew.

"I haven't been here in a long time, when I got a level 7 mission I asked to make a house in the middle of this lake and occupy it for 3 years, I just got back when my mission was over."

Xiao Shan spoke calmly but if he noticed the goal his expression kept the wound that had not fully healed. With that in mind all the dark sheets are now back open.

The senior swordsman who was then paying attention to Xiao Shan's expression understood very well what Xiao Shan was feeling.

He assumed that the mission must have been very closely related to a massacre.

Back when it was in the Sutra Caterpillar Alliance, there were many missions that resulted in a massacre. Many people were killed, even innocent people.

In principle to avoid grudges and prolonged war, one lineage even had to be wiped out.

For a warrior who has principles that are not in line with it, there will be a very torturous inner conflict. But in fact it still has to be done, as a result will leave a wound in the heart that will be borne for life.

After pondering for quite a long time the senior swordsman finally chose to take a quick rest. He immediately remembered that Xiao Shan had gone through a long journey to get here.

Xiao Shan did not protest, in fact he was quite exhausted because it had been a long time since he had rested quietly.

His days busy with the mission made him burdened by a lot of thoughts, both about himself, his family and even the mission he was on.

It comes to mind that if he is done with all this, he wants to feel like he is living quietly with his wife and child, becoming a whole family and complementing each other.
