   Chapter 989 Promise

   After a while, Linley stood outside a vast mansion.

   It was an extremely luxurious mansion. The walls of the mansion alone cost a lot of money. On both sides of the door there are two huge flame lion monsters carved from jade. Although the carving skills are not so brilliant, their value should not be underestimated.

   This is an extremely wealthy, ancient family!

   Moreover, this family has several clansmen who serve in the Kingdom of Finlay and hold a lot of power. It can be said to be one of the most powerful families in the Kingdom of Finlay, second only to those top giants and kings.

   "The Lucas Family." Linley said with a smile on his face, "It's finally here."

  The heritage treasure of the Baruch family, the sword "Slaughter", is in the hands of the patriarch of the Lucas family.

  Lin Lei let out a sigh of relief, restrained his smile, and walked towards the guards outside the gate of the mansion.

"Stop!" There were two guards at the entrance of the Lucas family mansion. Both guards were fifth-level soldiers. They were considered middle-ranking powerhouses in the army. Seeing Linley approaching, one of the guards immediately reprimanded. : "This is the Lucas family mansion, idlers are not allowed to enter!"

  The other guard said even more expressionlessly: "Little brat, this is not the place you should come."

   They didn't take Lin Lei seriously, because Lin Lei looked too young, at most fifteen or sixteen years old, and he was wearing shabby clothes and linen clothes, no different from the commoners in the villages and towns outside the city.

   "Boss, these two guys are so annoying, do you want me to go up and tear their mouths?" Bei Bei's eyes were full of fierce light.

"Don't be impulsive, Beibei." Linley hurriedly stopped Beibei, then looked at the two guards, and said, "I am Linley Baruch, a son of the Baruch family. Please two big brothers give me a report."

   "The Baruch Family?" The two guards were at a loss when they heard this.

   One of the guards asked the other, "Have you heard of it?"

   The guard who was asked shook his head: "I haven't heard of it, how about you?"

   "I haven't heard of it either."

As the guards of the Lucas family, they all know the power of the Finlay Kingdom very well, but they have never heard of the Baruch family. There is no doubt that the Baruch family either does not exist at all, or is just a small family. It is not qualified to be compared with the Lucas family at all.

   They had seen many such small family members who tried to climb up to the Lucas family, and they could meet them every once in a while. Therefore, they also classified Linley into this category.

   "No matter who you are, if you don't have an invitation from the Lucas family, hurry up." The guard said with a cold face, "Don't get in the way."

  Babe's teeth are itching with anger: "It's too much!"

   Two fifth-level fighters, Beibei can easily kill them. You must know that it is a seventh-level monster, and it is a divine beast that eats a divine rat. Even in the face of an eighth-level warrior, it is not afraid at all.

   "Boss, the Lucas family members are so arrogant, we'll just grab it and forget it." Bebe's little eyes flashed with a fierce light.

   "Don't be a jerk." Linley's soul said through voice transmission, "It's best to take back the treasure of the family's inheritance in an open and honest way.

  Lin Lei had already made a decision in his heart. Unless necessary, he would try not to use force.

After all, the Baruch family is an ancient family that has been passed down for 5,000 years. Although there are not many people who remember the Baruch family now, it is not that no one remembers it at all. Linley did not want the Baruch family to become a robber. , As for the honor of the family, Linley was influenced by his father, Hogg, and regarded him very seriously.

   Of course, if the soft ones really don’t work, then the hard ones are the only way to go!

Taking a deep breath, Linley gave up his plan to explain to the two guards. He opened his mouth directly, and his voice was like a silk thread, passing through the mansion and entering its interior: "Linley Baruch, a son of the Baruch family, ask to see Luka. Patriarch of the Si family, please also invite the patriarch of the Lucas family to show up!"

   This voice was not heard by the two guards.

   Seeing that Linley was still standing there, they couldn't help but get a little angry.

   However, before they could scold them, a voice came from the mansion: "Let him in."

   The two guards froze for a moment, but then stepped aside with curiosity in their eyes.

  Lin Lei walked into the gate of the Lucas family mansion with a smile on his face, and soon saw a figure, a middle-aged man.

   "Hello, Linley Baruch, right?" The blond middle-aged man smiled and said, "I'm Kelvin Lucas, you can call me Kelvin. The patriarch of the Lucas family is my uncle."

  Compared to the two guards outside the mansion, Kelly appeared to be more educated, gentle, and had an aristocratic temperament.

   "Hello." Linley said politely.

   "Let's go, my uncle is waiting for you in the living room." Kelly said with a smile.

As he led the way, Kelvin said: "The Baruch family, I have heard my uncle mention it, it is a great and ancient family that once traversed the Magnolia Continent and won the reputation of the Dragon Blood Warrior family, which is also known as the other three families. For the four ultimate warrior families. Unexpectedly, the Baruch family has been passed down for five thousand years, and there are still descendants."

  Keliven is very good at talking, even though the Baruch family has fallen and is inferior to even a small nobleman, he did not mention it at all, but chose to say it all.

   Hearing this, Linley couldn't help but feel a little bit of affection for Kelvin, even though he knew that Kelvin was complimenting him.

  Led by Kelvin, Linley and Beibei came to the living room.

In the living room, a silver-haired old man saw Linley approaching, his eyes lit up, he immediately stood up, and said very politely, "You are Linley Baruch, right? Unexpectedly, I Jeb will meet the Baruch family one day. I am deeply honored. Linley, please come in."

   "Hello, Patriarch Jeb." Linley said politely.

After entering the room, Jeb did not rush to speak, he looked at Linley for a few times, and then said, "As expected of the legendary Dragonblood Warrior family, he is indeed so strong at such a young age, and I can feel it. So, your blood is very strong, like a sun, maybe you can reproduce the glory of the Baruch family in the future..."

   He did feel that Lin Lei's aura was extraordinary, but to say that Lin Lei's qi and blood were strong would be nonsense.

  Because Linley had restrained his breath, ordinary people couldn't sense it at all. Even a ninth-level soldier would not be able to perceive Linley's power.

   It's just that Linley's sound transmission method just now made him feel that Linley is extraordinary. This young man's strength is probably not ordinary.

   He is so young, his strength is extraordinary, and his future prospects are limitless!

This is why Jeb has such a good attitude towards Linley. If Linley was older or weaker, he would probably have sent someone to blow Linley away. Not everyone has the right to shout at the Lucas family. Shout.

   "Patriarch Jeb has won an award." Lin Lei was educated by aristocrats since he was a child. Although he didn't have the title of aristocrat, he was no worse than the children of other nobles in terms of etiquette.

   Seeing this scene, Jeb's eyes became more appreciative.

   "Lin Lei, why did you come to our Lucas family?" After a moment of greeting, Jeb returned to the topic.

When    brought up this topic, Linley suppressed his smile and his expression became serious.

He looked at Jeb and said solemnly: "Patriarch Jeb, as far as I know, the treasure of our Baruch family's heritage, the battle knife 'Slaughter', is in your hands, you should know that the battle knife 'Slaughter' is right The meaning of our Baruch family. At that time, the generation of the Patriarchs of the Baruch family sold the sword 'slaughter' for their own selfish desires, which became a shame for the Baruch family. This shame is remembered by our Baruch family from generation to generation. Yu Xin, every generation of patriarchs hopes to get back the sword 'Slaughter' and wash away the shame of the family..."

"I hope Patriarch Jeb reluctantly gives up his love and returns the sword 'Slaughter' to the Baruch family." Linley's voice was very low and his eyes were very firm, "For this reason, no matter what the conditions of Patriarch Jeb put forward, Linley can do his best to accomplish it! "

   Hearing these words, Jeb, who was still pleasant, suddenly looked ugly.

   He was a little angry and looked at Lin Lei: "Lin Lei, your request is a bit difficult for a strong man!"

"Although the sword 'Slaughter' originally belonged to your Baruch family, but..." Jeb said in a deep voice, "I didn't rob it from your family, but bought it from others with a lot of gold coins. For me, it also has an extraordinary meaning!"

  Lin Lei frowned slightly, this Jeb seemed a little stubborn.

However, before he could speak, Jeb said again: "I am getting older and I no longer hold any position. My biggest hobby is collecting. This battle knife 'Slaughter' is my most precious collection. ...Want me to reluctantly cut my love? Impossible!"

"Patriarch Jeb, don't worry, please listen to me and finish what I have to say." Although Linley felt that things were a little troublesome, he did not give up. He said calmly, "As I said, I didn't ask you to return the sword 'Slaughter' for free. I know that this sword 'Slaughter' is of great value, and I can promise that as long as you are willing to return it to the Baruch family, you can make any conditions, and I will do my best to complete it!"

   "Any conditions?" Jeb sneered, "How dare you talk like this at such a young age!"

   "If I say I want a Sanctuary Warcraft, can you really get me a Sanctuary Warcraft?" Jeb laughed.

   A joke was taken seriously by Linley.

   He raised his head, looked at Jeb, and asked earnestly, "Is this the truth of Patriarch Jeb?"

"what?"

   "If I get a Sanctuary Warcraft, you will return the sword 'Slaughter' to the Baruch family?"

"Isn't it, you..." Jeb was a little surprised, but looking at Linley's serious look, he said in a mysterious way, "Of course! I, Jeb, are also a respectable person, and if I say it, I won't regret it! If you really get the Sanctuary Warcraft, this sword 'slaughter' will be yours!"

  Return the sword "Slaughter"?

   This is never possible!

Jeb takes the "slaughter" of the battle knife very seriously, because he bought it with hundreds of thousands of gold coins in the past, and now the value has grown to one million gold coins, and it is the most precious of the treasures he "picked up". One piece proves his vision. To this day, he still often shows off to others to satisfy his own vanity.

   After stepping down from his position in the kingdom, his power has been greatly reduced, and his prestige in the Lucas family is not as good as before.

  Only this sword "slaughter" can make him feel the value of his existence and reflect his sense of superiority.

"Okay, this matter is settled!" Linley doesn't care if Jeb is joking or not, as long as he has the opportunity to take back the sword 'Slaughter' in an open and honest way, he will not give up. It's not a difficult thing to say, it's too late for him to be happy, how could he refuse?

"What I say is useless, Patriarch Jeb, if you don't mind, I hope I can set up a certificate that you and I sign and sign as a basis for the future." Although Linley was happy, his mind remained calm, and he proposed to sign a paper contract. To prevent Jeb from not acknowledging the account afterwards.

   "Is there something wrong with this kid's brain?" Jeb looked at Linley suspiciously.

   But that's fine. With the certificate, the Baruch family has no excuse to make trouble.

   He didn't think Linley could get a sanctuary monster!

   "Kelvin, go to the study and get the paper and pen." Jeb instructed Kelly.

  Although this agreement seems a bit bullying, Jeb doesn't care at all, he must break the idea of ​​​​the Baruch family.
