"So...... Since your intuition is one of the important reasons why you choose to trust me - that is...... What else could it be?" the skeleton said with interest, "I want to know something else!"

"Because you're strong!" the old man looked at the skeleton with a deep look in his eyes, "if I'm not mistaken...... The strong qi that erupted when you faced the Supreme Elders before—it should be the strength of your heyday, right?"

"Don't you think that's the reason for my drug use?" the skeleton said with a faint smile and a slight mockery, "You know, your Supreme Elders...... But that's what they all think!"

"That's because they don't know -- and I'm ...... After all, he was once a brave man among the giants!" the old man said with some pride, "I am confident...... I still have this eyesight!"

"Oh, really?" the skeleton chuckled, noncommittal. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

"I know...... Those pills of yours are not 'bluffing' props, but rather—they are magical elixirs that can temporarily restore your peak strength!" the old man smiled confidently and said eloquently, "Although I have never seen this kind of elixir, it is not even ...... I haven't heard of it - but ...... Based on the explosiveness and fit of your momentum, I can be pretty sure of that...... That...... It's your true strength!"

"Yes...... So what?" the skeleton shrugged off, "even if my original strength was against the sky, but now I'm just a walking dead who has lost all my strength - except for this skin and countless treasures, I ...... It's useless at all! In the face of such a me...... How can you be sure...... Follow me...... Will you be absolutely safe?"

"I'm sure of it!" said the old man's face, with an indescribable look, "You have so many treasures by your side...... How could he be a lone ranger with no name?—besides, your strength ...... It's not that there is no way to recover! As I said earlier, I ...... I know how to help you regain your peak power!"

"But...... Although I have good strength, I ...... I'm not a famous person!--I think...... Except for today, you ...... You haven't even heard of my name, have you, let alone seen me!" the skeleton sneered, slightly pulling away from the topic of the old man's attempt to "lure", and mocked indifferently, "This is me...... Where did you get so much confidence to trust me?"

"I believe in my eye for people!" the old man was extremely confident in this, "Your strength, your treasure, and the power behind you...... All of this makes me sure - you ...... Definitely the best person to protect the safety of my child!"

"Yes...... Aren't you afraid that I'm a spy sent by those guys who regard Dongfang Lingyun as a thorn in the eye and a thorn in the flesh?" the skeleton squinted slightly and looked at the old man, and said casually, "Now I ...... It seems that I have gained the absolute trust of you and my child - if I fight back now, I'm afraid ...... You're all going to be gone!, not to mention, even if there really is such a huge force behind me, but ...... How can you be sure of the forces behind me...... There is no conflict of interest and hatred with Dongfang Lingyun?"

"Didn't I just say that?--Dongfang Lingyun's intuition...... I'm absolutely convinced! Now that you have her trust, that means ...... You ...... Absolutely harmless to her!, so why should I be wary of you?" the old man smiled slightly, looked at the skeleton teasingly, and said, "Besides, according to your strength...... How can those guys be able to impress an existence like you? As for the forces behind you that you just said--I think...... Even if the forces behind you really have endless grievances and entanglements with Dongfang Lingyun, ...... I'm sure you'll still be on her side and help her out of all her troubles...... Isn't it?"

"You're confident!" said the skeleton indifferently, "just make sense of what you say!—but...... I still want to hear it...... The real reason why you choose to trust me to protect your child...... What the hell is it?"

"I mean really...... I don't know why......—don't think I'm prevaricating to you! That's exactly what I'm struggling with right now!" The old man looked at the skeleton that seemed to be a little dissatisfied, and explained in a loud voice, "Perhaps...... Is it because I like your strength? Or maybe I like your power! Of course...... Dongfang Lingyun's intuition is also an important factor......! That's not the main thing!—that's exactly what I thought in my heart!"

"But...... If you really want me to give a 'reliable' reason, I think...... I really can't tell!" the old man muttered to himself, a little confused, "maybe...... I may have seen your meticulous care for her and your love from the bottom of my heart, which made me have to be moved by your 'sincerity' and willing to believe that your love for her is sincere!"

"It's that simple?" the skeleton hesitated a little, and asked with obvious distrust, "It stands to reason...... You are one of the giants who created the golden family of the Cole family...... How could the decision be so rash and arbitrary?"

"Sometimes...... Decision-making does not require such and such precise calculations - because such calculations and plans often lead to missed opportunities and go astray!" the old man looked solemnly at the skeleton, his eyes contained a strong trust, "Sometimes, I feel ...... You can decide everything!--I believe in Dongfang Lingyun's intuition! I also believe in my own vision! I believe in ...... Your choice!" (To be continued.) )
