Protector

"Master, I feel like they don't even know you're here…" Xiao Chen smiled faintly.

Fang An's idea of ​​the Flower of Sin wanting to seek revenge on him made sense but Xiao Chen knew that the Flower of Sin was not that kind of organization. Xiao Chen was actually quite surprised that the Sin Flower dared to try to kill the Crown Prince, their guts were really big.

Considering all that had happened over a year ago, if the Flower of Sin wanted to seek revenge they would have done so when Fang An was traveling back from the Capital to the Valley of the Hundred Swords.

"If the Flower of Sin wants to finish off Master, they should at least send three purple mask assassins and it's very likely that one or two of them will be killed. The Flower of Sin would not be willing to sacrifice such a large amount of resources without earning a penny." Xiao Chen thought.

It's just that it wouldn't hurt if the two of them were more vigilant, Fang An and Xiao Chen then took a break after talking about the matter. Fang An planned to report this matter to Liu Cheng the next morning.

At sunrise, Liu Cheng came to Fang An's tent and invited the two of them to enjoy the breakfast he had prepared. After eating breakfast, Fang An informed him about the whereabouts of the Flower of Sin that had inspected the camp last night.

"Flower of Sin?" Liu Cheng's face turned slightly pale, he certainly knew the meaning behind the name. "Elder Fang, can I beg you for help?"

Even though Liu Cheng had Wu Ya's relentless protection, the name Flower of Sin made him panic. Liu Cheng had heard that several people from noble families were wiped out by this organization. What made the Flower of Sin so famous recently was that they dared to attempt an assassination on Yin Song a year ago.

"This matter…" Fang An looked hesitant to accept it.

"Elder Fang, please…" Liu Cheng asked Fang An to escort him to the place of the girl he wanted to propose to. "Elder Fang, we are walking in the same direction and of course I didn't ask Elder to do this voluntarily…"

Liu Cheng called his servant and whispered something, before long the servant brought over a small wooden chest containing fifty gold coins, "Elder Fang, I don't have much personal money with me, but I can pay more when I arrive at my destination. I understand Elder Fang is not one to desire treasures, but apart from money, I have nothing of value to give…"

Actually there were various items in this group but all of them were dowry for the proposal that Liu Cheng had promised to the family of the girl he adored. It was not appropriate for the noble under any circumstances to back down on the promise so he planned to hand over the dowry first before borrowing it back to pay Fang An.

One gold coin was enough to support a simple family of four for half to one year, fifty gold coins seemed a lot but to a warrior this amount was absolutely nothing let alone a titled one like Fang An.

To put it simply, a 10 year old Ginseng Water grade resource for example could be worth 50 to 70 gold pieces. If a warrior were to develop his ability to use resources then the amount of gold coins he would have to spend would be a monstrous amount.

Even though a resource like the 10 year old Water Ginseng was of little use to a warrior of Fang An's level unless it was consumed regularly like Xiao Chen did, in the entire martial world only Xiao Chen could enjoy this style of practice.

For a swordsman of Fang An's level, by clearing a mission from the Valley of the Hundred Swords, he could earn three to five hundred gold pieces' worth of rewards. Some dangerous tasks could earn Fang An a thousand gold pieces in one mission.

It was just that Fang An hadn't carried out any missions for the past year or so, he could still clearly remember Xiao Chen seeing the better quality sword in the War Sword Pavilion but Fang An couldn't afford one. Even though Fang An didn't show it, he felt bad as a teacher.

Fang An and Xiao Chen had a long way to go to the Capital while Fang An's supplies were not much. Fang An didn't want to be too frugal to the point of making this trip an unpleasant memory for Xiao Chen.

"Young Master Liu, I accept your request." Fang An decided.

"Thank you Elder Fang! I will always remember your kindness." Liu Cheng's expression brightened because Fang An was willing to escort him.

Xiao Chen frowned, he didn't understand why Fang An had accepted this job. If Xiao Chen knew Fang An's thoughts, he would probably feel really guilty considering that Master and Disciple's life could be so much easier if Xiao Chen was willing to sell his Water Ginseng to the sect.

Although feeling confused, Xiao Chen did not question Fang An's decision to his teacher.

Liu Cheng ordered his entourage to leave immediately, even though Fang An was now guarding him, Liu Cheng only felt really safe when he was in the residence of his idol.

Of course the Liu family's bodyguards received information about the Flower of Sin, the expressions on the guards' faces changed. Their movements became faster as well as prompting the maids to hurry up too.

Fang An and Xiao Chen ride the same carriage as Liu Cheng, along the way Liu Cheng tries to strengthen his relationship with Fang An. Titled warrior were only one in a hundred expert warrior, being friends with a warrior of Fang An's level had never been a disadvantage.

Liu Cheng's entourage was stopped by robbers who tried to take away his dowry but the robbers were no match for the guards. The three first-class warriors who usually wouldn't move unless the other bodyguards were pressed immediately stepped in to face the robbers, they all wanted to get to their destination without further delay.

"The name Flower of Sin sure is a good motivation for them…" Xiao Chen said with a chuckle as he peeked at the battle of the bodyguards and robbers.

Liu Cheng raised his eyebrows when he realized that Xiao Chen could laugh while watching the killing even though Liu Cheng himself felt uncomfortable seeing the massacre that was happening outside his carriage especially when a fishy smell started to smell inside the train.

Fang An already knew Xiao Chen's behavior like this so was not too surprised.

There were no other obstacles after the group encountered the robbers. Liu Cheng's party could see their destination city when the sun was almost setting. Without delay, the group headed to a luxurious residence in the city.
