Eternal Swordsman - 2
Chapter 112 - Swear For Your Life

"I... I'm."

The guard pointed to himself with trembling hands, he was neither too young nor too old. His strength was not something special so maybe he mistook him for someone else.

"Yes, you. Come and stand in the middle"

Jia Lin gestured with her finger. The guard shakily stepped out and stood not far from Qun who was staring at him with a strange face.

"Who's your name?"

Jia Lin looked at the man with a calm face. Within his mental will, the God Mirror quietly floated behind his back like a sturdy wall that could never be shaken. The aura of a true God beast emanated outward which caused the room to tremble somewhat. The young man looked into the mirror and his heart instantly beat faster for a strange reason!

"my name... My... My name is Jian Huang"

The young guard looked at the God Mirror as if it was his life contained within it, he could feel a deep call coming from that mirror that made his blood boil and made his heart beat faster for some strange reason!

Seeing the reaction of the young man after the God Mirror came out, Jia Lin instantly verified a few things. First, was that this young man had true dragon blood flowing within him and he did not know it. Second, the God Mirror never stopped shaking until this young man was placed in front of him, this told Jia Lin one thing and that was that the young man had a relationship with the Dragon race and it was a deep relationship.

"Do you swear by your life that you will bear the name of Asura until the day you die?"

Black And White Door

At this moment, Jia Lin's voice turned cold. His eyes started to change in front of everyone as he looked at this young man in front of him, Jia Lin's eyes became red with many flowing patterns, the world that was before his eyes became simple.

"Do you promise to die for me if you have to? From today onwards, there will be a way back. There will be a lot of death and destruction, you will probably die brutally one day if you follow me. Will you put your Jian Huang? live in my hands?"

The room became stiff with a deadly cold. Even if a pin fell to the ground, everyone would be able to hear it like lightning. Formation master Lee had not said anything until now, even the Twins of June kept their mouths shut. Little Red was no exception, so were Yin Yin and Captain Qun, they all looked at the youngster with strange faces.

"I..."

"That's not what you expected"

Jia Lin looked at the young man, he got up from his seat and walked towards the young man. The God Mirror floated behind his back like the will of heaven. Jia Lin did not move quickly, he took a bit of time to walk towards the young man. Every step he took was like a mountain smashing into Jian Haung's heart.

"Death is a scary thing. You have to run away from it while you can"

Jia Lin stood in front of Jian Huang. His eyes looked at her and he could see the deep fear that lay within the young man's eyes. To tell someone that you will give your life for them or die if it is necessary to save others, what kind of heart is taken? What kind of mental will is needed?

"Do you really have to put so much pressure on her like that?"

Apollo asked Jia Lin with a slight frown. The foundation of this young man was severely lacking, even his desires were wavering and his mind was not firm at all. The pressure that Jia Lin exerted on him, could most likely make the young man fall to the ground.

"It's for his own good. If he was as a connection to the dragon race, then he should be steadfast. If he's gonna follow me, he's gotta be strong"

While the next door was pitch-black with many skulls and ghosts etched on its surface. It had an aura of death and brutality that made people's souls shaken, its aura terrifying and confusing.

"I'm putting in front of you two roads. The white door you see here is the path that leads out of here, I'm not going to stop you and I'm even going to give you land and money to live the rest of your life. You can get married." And have children of your own, you don't have to live a life where you might die"

Jia Lin turned around to look at everyone inside this room. His red eyes looked at everyone one by one, he could see the fear in many of their eyes.

"Actually, I'm giving this offer to everyone in this room. This door leads to a future without murder and a future without bloodshed"

Jia Lin's eyes explored every single person in this room. Some were shaken and some felt weak in heart. They never thought that being a part of this would be so deadly and nerve-wracking, even most thought now, that it was not a good thing for them to join the Asura Guards!

Jia Lin let what he said seep into their minds. The only people who did not look too confused were Jun Twins, formation Master Lee, Yin Yin, captain Qun, and Little Red. Well, the only reason Little Red didn't look too shaken was because she saw her mother was calm and calm and she had to straighten her mother's face.

But this did not escape the sight of Jia Lin's eyes. Jia Lin's eyes stopped on Little Red, she stared at him for a while which caused the young girl to start showing signs of a developing pear.

"Efforts"

Yin Yin Yin could only sigh after seeing her daughter showing signs of fear, a deep fear of death for the life to come. He knew that his daughter was not very strong-hearted in these kinds of things. He didn't either, but after seeing so many deaths when he was young, he became numb to all of that.

"This black door you saw here before you. This is the Asura road, this is the path of endless killing and death. This path is where you might die, leaving behind your family and friends. But it's also a path where you can protect them, where you can build their future, a path where you can be strong"

Jia Lin pointed his finger at Little Red, the girl felt her body being pulled by something out of this world. Before he realized it, he was standing beside the relentlessly trembling Jian Huang.

"Your mother won't be around you to protect you all the time. The path you choose is up to you, the path to a happy life or the path to death. You chose it!"

Jia Lin looked at Little Red who now had weak knees. Even Jian Huang looked as if he would fall at any moment.

"I. I want to live"

At this moment, a guard stepped out. His hands were trembling and he seemed to want to run for his dear life. Jia Lin looked towards the guard and gestured with her hand towards the white door but she did not force the man. The man walked towards the door and before he stepped in, he turned to Yin Yin and bowed.

Then he turned to the other guards and bowed as well. He also turned his head to Jia Lin with a weak body. Jia Lin didn't say anything, she wasn't upset with the man because of his choice, after all, this was her life and she had a choice with what you did with her.

"I know your intentions well, sir. But I don't think I can do it. My family needs me, I have two kids at home and I don't think they'll have a happy life if I do. die"

The man told Jia Lin what was in his heart. The reason he joined the Asura guards was to make money for his family, protecting the city was one thing, but going to die was another.

"I understand. You will be given a job in the City, you will still be able to feed your children and you can still practice your cultivation. Go now."
