"Meera Peter, are you telling the truth?"
In a magnificent room, Meira nodded to the majestic old man in front of her. Unexpectedly, Dean was hiding there. Over the years, only the fake king knew his whereabouts, thus frightening the cabinet and nobles like them.
"This is a big deal, let me think about it. If it really succeeds, you will be the young patriarch of my Peter family."
"Thank you, Grandpa Patriarch."
Meera bowed and exited the room, the joy on her face difficult to conceal.
"Hahaha, Pula, you were just a puppet, but you got a strong man like Dean to support you. It's a pity that you let him live in the mountains and forests. I, Peter Delin, will become the real king of Shields. .”
Delin walked to a secret room and summoned the elders of the clan to discuss matters.
Time passed, and before he knew it, Su Sheng had been training with Dean for three months. He had become proficient in various fighting skills, and Su Sheng combined the martial arts from his previous life. Even Dean was full of praise after seeing it.
"Uncle Di, why don't you come with me? We can go to other countries. With your ability, it will definitely be no problem to become a general."
Su Sheng looked at Dean sincerely. He really hoped that Dean could leave here with him. Here, Dean can only hide in this forest forever. The restraint of the fake king Pula makes Dean breathless as if he is wearing shackles.
"No, I grew up here. This is my hometown. Even though I have too many unbearable and painful memories, I can no longer leave Shields Country."
Dean sighed and patted Su Sheng on the shoulder.
"From now on, your name will be Su Sheng Edward. You can leave tonight."
"Why tonight?"
"When I went hunting these days, I found many strange faces in the forest. I'm afraid something is going to happen."
"how about you?"
"Don't you still have to worry about me? Just relax."
Late at night, Su Sheng packed up his supplies, including some dry food prepared for him by Dean, and a dagger given to him by Dean. Get out of the house. Looking towards Dean's room, Su Sheng knelt down and bowed three times.
"Uncle Di, take care."
Su Sheng wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes. These days, Uncle Di treated him like a son, teaching him everything he could. He was both a teacher and a father.
After a moment of silence, Su Sheng disappeared into the night.
"Kid, take care of yourself too."
Dean sat by the bed and took out from under the bed the spear that had accompanied him in battles for several years. He put the long bow on his back and left the room.
In the dark night, rapid footsteps sounded. The fallen leaves made a squeaking sound.
"This is it. King Pula has an order to bring the people inside back."
"yes."
The first person rushed into the room and only found some tools for making bows and arrows.
"Commander, there is no one inside."
The man retreated and reported.
"The four of you stay outside the house, and the rest of you will follow me in to check if there are any secret passages or anything like that."
Looking at the four people outside the house, Dean held his breath and drew a sharp arrow from his back, placing it on his longbow.
"Hey." One of them fell directly to the ground.
"What was that just now?"
"Boooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooh"
After three more sounds, the other three fell straight to the ground.
"what happens!"
Everyone in the house heard the noise and ran outside quickly.
"Ah!" After the first person to go out screamed, the surroundings fell into deathly silence.
"Dean, just follow us. We won't make things difficult for you."
The commander looked gloomy. Four of his men died. This was a loss and even more humiliating.
"Who sent you?"
Dean's voice echoed everywhere.
"His Majesty the King invites you to visit the palace."
The commander pulled out his long sword and felt the subtle sound in the darkness.
"The king's bodyguards, if I were invited, why would I send you here?"
Dean sneered and shot a few more sharp arrows.
"Arrogant!"
The commander rushed towards the source of the sound and stabbed out the long knife in his hand.
"Something capable."
Dean threw the longbow towards the commander, and the spear stabbed the commander as nimbly as a snake.
"All alert!"
The commander barely dodged the stab.
"Bang." A bullet hit Dean's left shoulder.
"He's hurt, chase!"
The commander gave the order, and the rest of the people immediately rushed out to chase the figure in front. Despite being injured, Dean's speed did not slow down and he soon left his bodyguard behind.
"Mr. Zhen Guo, where are you going?"
Countless figures suddenly appeared in the woods and surrounded Dean.
"Kebas, you cabinet dog!"
Dean cursed the person in front of him angrily. The familiar face in front of him brought back the most regretful memory in his heart.
"Oh, don't say that, we haven't seen you for a long time. It's really thanks to those Pula's personal guards that we found you."
"Those people have been killed by you."
"Yes, kill them all. The commander is a man, capable and courageous. It's a pity that he doesn't understand current affairs, just like you."
Kebas wiped his hands with a handkerchief nonchalantly. Seeing Dean's face turning extremely pale due to excessive blood loss, he directed others to tie up Dean.
