Longevity Martial Arts: Grinding Experience in the Chaotic World

He could see Helian Tie Lan had something to discuss with him.

Helian Tie Lan took a deep breath, bowed respectfully, and then said:

”I wish to make a deal with you—or rather, plead for you to do me a favor.”

”Let’s hear it,” Gu Sheng said thoughtfully.

Helian Tie Lan solemnly stated:

”I wish to ask you, Master Butcher, should the opportunity ever arise, to kill Zhao Honglie and annihilate the Black Sand Gang. In return, I am willing to offer my family’s secret weapon crafting techniques. My family lineage traces back to the Helian forging clan of Red Cloud Prefecture. I assure you the techniques will not disappoint.”

Her eyes burned with intense hatred.

Clearly, she hadn’t come to terms with Pei Xuansi’s death and sought vengeance against Zhao Honglie and the Black Sand Gang.

Gu Sheng’s gaze sharpened.

He hadn’t expected Helian Tie Lan to have a significant background. Her weapon crafting methods, stemming from a prestigious family in Red Cloud Prefecture, were undoubtedly remarkable.

”Then why not seek aid from your family?”

Helian Tie Lan shook her head and said:

”To be honest, Master Butcher, I am the only survivor of my branch. I’ve severed ties with the family long ago. If you were to acquire my weapon crafting techniques, you must exercise caution not to reveal them, lest it attract trouble.”

Helian Tie Lan concealed nothing in her explanation.

”You trust me that much?”

”Tie Lan can see that, though you bear a fierce reputation, Master Butcher, you are a man of principles. If you promise me, you will strive to fulfill it. I cannot stand idly by, and so, I have taken the liberty to plead with you. I ask for your understanding.”
