Ch. 40 Part 1

The man was startled sensing their presence, with much difficulty, he turned towards them looking to them with vigilance, confused and questioning eyes. Seeing his uneasiness, Tan Fan stepped forward and was about to explain the reason for their sudden intrusion. But Yanzhi beat him to it.

"Do you remember some years back a young man commissioned you for some informations, in return he will grant you three favors because he had no silver on him to pay you for your services?" Yanzhi asked as his tranquil gaze focused on the man frowning from pain.

The man looked to him with confused eyes not recalling about Yanzhi's question, moments later after thinking it through his eyes which were without light suddenly shone brightly as he forced a smile on his face. But he became more confused since the youth back then and the man now were completely different, but he felt a little familiarity with Yanzhi.
