Chapter 2625 Magnetic Wind Belt
Wanrou's clear eyes lowered and said, “Master Shi, it wasn’t meant to test you, but...”
She hesitated for a long while before suddenly looking straight at Lin Xun, “Rather, I have a favor to ask of you. Should you agree, Ancestor Kun’s life bone will be your compensation.”
A surprised Lin Xun asked, “What is it?”
Wanrou sighed, “Since it's come to this, I won’t hide anything from you.”
She proceeded to tell him the full story.
It turned out when doing trading in the Rowdy Demon Sea several years ago, Old Kun was attacked by Scarlet Demon Dao Lord of Scarlet Copper Mountain, who not only robbed all of his belongings but also took his son Bo’an.
It was unknown how Scarlet Demon Dao Lord knew about Ancestor Kun’s life bone, but he threatened to kill Bo’an if Old Kun didn’t deliver this treasure to him within ten years. After Old Kun returned from the Rowdy Demon Sea, he fretted about this until he finally decided to give up the life bone and exchange it for his son's life!
However, Old Kun’s injury was too heavy as his very dao foundation had been severely damaged. He was no longer able to handle a trip to the Rowdy Demon Sea and had to entrust this important task to Wanrou, hence this journey.
After learning all of this, Lin Xun understood, “You want to save your younger brother Bo’an from Scarlet Demon Dao Lord?”
Wanrou nodded, “Although the trouble from the Heng Clan has been resolved, I'm not sure if we can handle another one. The exchange will be at Scarlet Copper Mountain which is the territory of Scarlet Demon Dao Lord. If he goes back on his word, then consequences will be unpleasant...”
Lin Xun asked, “Didn’t your father give you any pointers?”
Wanrou said, “He gave a trump card to Uncle Jiao that can deter Scarlet Demon Dao Lord from playing dirty, but I still can’t help but worry. After all, my younger brother's life is in the hands of that devil. The tiniest mistake may cost us his life, and that's something I don't want to see.”
