"Thankyou very much, I can't repay your favor ever" the woman cried with tears of joy.
"My brother has been searching for a good Healer for Jin Wu. But we are unable to afford a good Healer who can cure her."
"It's so great to find someone who is willing to help us"
Fan Sheng couldn't help but feel shy. "Its nothing, its something i should do"
"Sorry I forgot to introduce myself to you. My Name is Jin Shu and Its nice to meet you"
"Ohh Its okay, My name is Fan Sheng and I am new to this village"
"But is that so difficult to find a good healer, i think you can easily find some"
"Even though we could find some good healer, we still need to come up with the expenses for treatment"
"What do you mean by that?"
"Recently not many people have Aura of Cultivations, it needs lots of practice for people to become a good healers or to achieve any abilities"
"So in this time of scarce, the prices of treatment has skyrocketed"
"Yes, she is right. Only people who have strong Cultivations in the family lines are able to awaken their abilities."
"Noawadays, even people with Cultivation bloodline couldn't awaken any strong abilities"
He thinks of his past life on how he was so useless even after possessing a great family blood line.
Her eyes were filled with admiration as she looked at him.
"Why don't you stay with us today?"
"What?"
"Yes, I would like to cook you something delicious."
"No, I don't want to trouble you"
"No its okay, my brother usually bring us some meat after hunting in the mountains"
"He must be pretty skilled then?"
"yes, He was, but ever since the child is born he left everything to care for her"
"Her family is so miserable, I can't take advantage of her despite my condition, I should leave now" Fan sheng heart feels heavy.
As Jin Shu enters the kitchen to bring him some water, Fan sheng leaves silently.
He knows that if he doesn't form a bond by tonight he will die.
[Host, you should complete the Task before midnight]
"Yes System, lets search for someone suitable"
As he again comes back to high spirits to search for a suitable person a sudden blow on his neck caught him off guard.
As he opens his eyes, he is tied in a dark room with his mouth tied by a rope.
He couldn't move nor make any sound but felt helpless.
Memories of the past rewinded in his mind.
In those cold nights, he crawled on the streets with hunger in search of some food and filled his stomach with water.
All he could get is the cold rejection and pity of the people. That made him toggle between life and death for nearly 1 year before he finally died.
He could still remember that the stranger had coldly murdered him by slaying him with an axe.
The darkness has finally ended and he finally got a chance to restart his life and live better.
But here again he is still brought in front of death sooner than before.
He couldn't help but feel devastated as he was brought in front of his death once again.
"If only i could just meet my family once again, i could tell them how sorry i am for causing all the trouble they have been through because of me"
"If I haven't committed that mistake, my father doesn't need to trade his position as duke in exchange of my life"
"Father, I am sorry" tears rolled down his eyes and soon he lost consciousness.
A man in dark robes entered the room and found him unconscious.
He is quite strong and muscular in his plain clothes.
Then a woman enters the room with a bowl of hot food.
She gently placed the candle beside him and was shocked to see him.
She immediately drops the bowl in her hand. The sound is loud enough to reach outside.
The noise caught the attention of the man and it also brought back the consciousness of Fan Sheng.
Both shared eye contact "You..?" Fan sheng found a familiar face in the midst of darkness.
"What did you do to my sister?" A strong voice soon reached him.
The man caught him with a single hand and held him up in the air.
"Brother, please leave him. He didn't do anything" she pleaded with him.
Fan sheng couldn't reach the ground and shook his body but it was of no use as his legs and arms were tied down.
"I didn't do anything. Leave me"
"Brother, he is the one who saved Jin Wu"
Her words struck the man hard and he immediately placed him down gently.
"Are you sure he is the one who saved Jin Wu?"
"Yes Brother, I found him in the forest and he offered to help me"
"Is what my sister is telling true?" His gaze is fixed on Fan Sheng.
"Yes, I am a level 8 healer. If you don't believe me, i can prove it"
They untie him, he asked his sister.
If you can't prove your healing abilities, I won't spare you.
Fan Sheng then uses his self healing ability to heal himself. The light yellow light surged in his body and it healed all the swellings and scratches on his body.
He is shocked to see how fast he recovered from his injuries.
"What is your name?" Tha man asked Fan Sheng.
"My name is Fan Sheng"
"So, you are the son of the Duke?"
"Yes, i am the youngest one" Fan Sheng was still a bit hesitant as he spoke to the man in front of him.
"So are you the playboy who got exiled from the capital?"
"I think you can say that"
"Brother, he is not like that. Don't forget that he actually saved your daughter"
[System Scanning..]
"What is the system scanning"
[Scanning Completed]
[ Aura Level: 200
Abilities:
Defender level- 10,
Sword master Level- 10
]
"What? He is a level 10 defender and Sword Master. It is quite rare for a person to have 2 different qualities and that too in that high level"
"That means he surely is a rare talent"
Suddenly the man before him bent in front of him.
"Accept My apologies, I found you near my home and thought you want to harm my family"
"Really..? For an instant I thought you want to kill me"
Jin Shu and her brother shared glances before they spoke anymore.
"Actually.. My brother wanted to kill you"
"What? But why?" Panic arose on his face.
He couldn't feel it more surprising. The relief came with a shock.
"He recently accepted a deal to kill a person in exchange for money after my persuasion to earn money"
Her face tells that she is guilty of her actions.
She kneels down and bows her head to the ground and apologizes to him.
"I am sorry to cause you this trouble. Please forgive us"
"Please get up" Fan Sheng helps her to stand up.
"We are so.. sorry. I don't know that the person they wanted to kill is you."
Her brother also kneels down and this sends shivers in Fan Sheng's spine.
"No.., Don't do that"
"I wanted to collect money for the physician to treat my daughter and I never thought that I would almost kill my benefactor"
He kowtows to him and Fan SHeng can feel a sense of terror in his back.
"Please both of you get up first"
"We won't get up until you forgive us.." both of them were firm on their decision as they bowed before him.
[last 5 minutes left for task Completion]
"What? Only 5 minutes left" His response startled them.
"What Happened Young Master?"
"Nothing.."
"What should I do? How can I bond with someone in less than 5 min?"
"System, could you extend the timeline?"
[No, Time periods can't be extended]
"What…? No No No.. , I can't die"
