The Guardian's Sword

Chapter 375

Jason‘s words left Quill bewildered.

“Uncle Jason, what... What sword?” Quill touched his head–he did not understand. “The one I saw when I visited your house the other day!

“The sword you used for gardening–when you were digging and planting flowers!”

Jason‘s tone was very serious and seemed mildly rushed.

He was acting as if this was no small matter. Quill rolled his eyes back into his head to think carefully and finally recalled what sword Jason was talking about.

That day, he had used the longsword he had snatched from Sean to dig some soil in the flowerbed outside.

Jason had just happened to be visiting and saw the sword. Quill clearly remembered that Jason‘s expression had grown very unusual upon seeing it. Later, Jason had used his cell phone to take a photo of the longsword. This indicated that the sword might be of extraordinary origin. At the time, Quill could not help but think, Could Sean really be involved with some bigshot?‘ However, since then, Quill had long thrown this matter to the winds. What did Jason intend to do by bringing it up again now? “I‘m asking you a question. Are you mute?” Jason, at the other end of the line, suddenly banged the table. “Ah, Uncle Jason, I‘m listening... I‘m listening...” Once Quill realized what was happening, he gulped and hurriedly replied to his uncle. “I‘ll ask again–where did you get that sword from?!

“You‘d best tell me the truth!” Jason took a deep breath and asked again.
