The Heavenly Stars Sect’s disciple guarding the side entrance was not in a high realm, and he was also an apprentice.
Naturally, he also admired Caspian and Maya, the two prominent figures in the spiritual apprentice list.
Hence, before Caspian even asked, the disciples explained Samson’s identity.
Through the disciple’s explanation, Caspian and Maya understood that Samson was the first person who informed the Heavenly Stars Sect about the monster attack.
The Wellspring Village where Samson’s home was located was also the first village slaughtered by the monsters, and he was the only survivor.
“I see…” Caspian nodded.
He had seen the pain of losing his home and family in the past.
Caspian was only eight when he slashed about 760 bandits in Lunar Valley with a sword in his hand, destroying three of their camps at the same time.
Caspian could faintly feel Samson’s emotions and obsessions.
However…
Caspian sighed, lifted his willow stick, and whipped at one of the goats.
The goat bleated and walked forward.
The goat’s cry startled Samson, who almost fainted.
For him, that was the sound that he would always hear in his daily life.
Then, Samson opened his eyes with great difficulty, and he saw a blurry tall figure walking past him.
For an unknown reason, Samson’s heart pounded.
Samson knelt there for days without any food or drinks, and he was about to collapse at any time.
However, he suddenly felt energized, and he gritted his teeth and knocked his head hard on the stone slab in front of him.
Bang!
Samson’s forehead was injured, but he was not bleeding too much.
Then, with a hoarse voice that sounded like a growl, Samson uttered, “I’m Samson Clifford from the Wellspring Village, begging the gracious sect to give me a chance! l’m willing to be a slave for life for you, never complaining!”
Samson’s voice was filled with endless grief and indignation.
With a choked voice, Samson was on the verge of tears, but he could not even bleed much due to the severe lack of water, let alone crying.
Just as before, Samson did not receive any response, and he felt his chest tighten.
He wanted to cry, but he could not, and he hated himself for being so useless.
He should have just died with his family back then! Then, just when Samson almost lost all hope, a voice came from above him.
“You… Why should the Heavenly Stars Sect give you a chance…”
Samson felt like a drowning man, and the voice was his savior.
Then, he hurriedly raised his head.
With his current state, everything he saw was blurry, as if there was a layer of mist in front.
Even so, Samson noticed that the person in front of him was a Heavenly Stars Sect’s disciple.
However, the Heavenly Stars Sect’s disciple did not hold a longsword that could destroy monsters, but a willow stick?
Nonetheless, Samson could not care less what the person held, as he understood that it might be his last and only chance that he would receive after kneeling here for five days and four nights.
“I want revenge! I want revenge!” Samson’s voice was hoarse.
He could not cry out, but his howl was filled with endless sadness.
His head hit the stone slab repeatedly as if he did not feel the pain, and he did not seem to want to stop.
That was the only way to prove his determination to Caspian.
