The Sorrowmender

PAID Chapter 178

A furrow appeared between Lin's brows, his tone carrying a mix of seriousness and tension.

"Duke Wei, there's someone ahead, a blindfolded youth from Mister Forgetting Worries' residence."

They had encountered no one on their journey, yet outside the city, they met this young man.

Moreover, judging by his demeanor, he was deliberately waiting here.

As a former leader of the shadow guards, Lin's instincts were highly alert.

He instinctively believed that the young emperor was unwilling to let Duke Wei go, thus sending this person to finish him off.

Duke Wei also lifted the curtain of the carriage and looked ahead. In the drizzling rain, the youth stood alone under a tree.

His aged eyes were filled with the same confusion.

"Why is he here?"

"Duke Wei, if anything happens, I'll hold him off. You just run," Lin said solemnly.

Duke Wei patted Lin's shoulder reassuringly and said with unusual calmness:

"It's alright, let's go down and take a look."

He thought differently from Lin. He had spoken with Mister Forgetting Worries, who promised that as long as he completed those three tasks, he would be spared.

Although he had only met Mister Forgetting Worries once and talked for half the night, he believed that Mister Forgetting Worries would not go back on his word.

Thus, seeing this youth, he was merely surprised, not afraid.
