Chapter 986


    The New Year was the most important holiday of the year for people in Yan Xia. At this time,


    everyone would take days off from their busy work and immerse themselves in peace and


    happiness.


    On the first day of the year, the visitors of the Lins almost ttened their doorsteps. Because there


    were so many visitors, the hotel near Lin''s vi raised its price three times, and still, no vacant room


    was left.


    Even Sylvia, who had been very experienced with social situations, was exhausted by too much


    social interaction. So the Lins decided that each family member took care of one group of visitors.


    The New Year''s holidays passed quickly. During the time of rxation and fun, because of the


    unique situation of the Lins, all the family members were busier than usual.


    On the seventh day of the New Year holidays, a special guest appeared in front of Lin''s vi.


    In a season where everyone was wearing thick winter clothes, this person wore flimsy


    sackcloth clothes and a bamboo hat. His unique attire attracted a lot of attention.


    "Hey, do you have to be that shing?" Henry, wearing a thick winter coat, strolled toward the man.


    Sackcloth Visitor tipped his hat up and said, "You know it well that temperature won''t bother me."


    "Sh*t," Henry pouted, "It''s one thing you don''t care about the temperature, but it''s another thing that


    how people see you. You do know that you look like a moron, don''t you?"


    "Haha," Sackcloth Visitor smiled like he didn''t care, "The more you care about other people''s


    opinions, the further you have grown apart from this world. It''s already the seventh day of the new


    year. It''s time to go."


    Henry crossed his arms over his chest and said with a smile, "It seems that they have run out of


    patience."


    "Yes," Sackcloth Visitor nodded, "You know the people from the west don''t celebrate the lunar new


    year. You are the only one who knows how to enter and exit the eighteenth level of the City of Hell.


    Andrew will always be anxious until you tell him how. You, of all people, would know how


    detrimental it would be if people from down there got out. The order of the underground world,


    which has been kept for hundreds of years, will be broken in an instant. If it weren''t for your


    reputation, Andrew would have taken action by now."


    "Fine," Henry waved his hand and said, "Let''s go to Recluse Association. You were the one who


    made me join the organization. So if anything goes wrong, you have to cover me."


    "Ha," Sackcloth Visitorughed, "You have so many secrets, and you have grown so fast. Even the


    Lord can''t see through you. No one can tell what you really possess now. Cover you? Are you


    joking?"


    Henry made a face and did not speak.


    "Say goodbye to your wife, and we need to go now," Sackcloth Visitor pulled his hat down and


    covered his whole face again.


    "No need," Henry shook his head and said in a self- important way, "Let''s just go. I''ll go wherever


    and whenever I want. My wife can''t be the boss of me."


    Sackcloth Visitor was surprised. He looked at Henry for a long time.


    Henry felt ufortable by Sackcloth''s stare. "What are you looking at?"


    Sackcloth Visitor answered, "Excuse my French. But you are bullsh*ting."


    "D*mn!" Henry gave Sackcloth a middle finger. The reason Henry didn''t want to say goodbye was


    that he didn''t want to go through the pain of separating from Sylvia. He couldn''t predict what would


    happen to him and when they could meet again.


    Henry had been hiding his worries. That''s why he had been restraining himself from being too close


    to Sylvia.


    Comparing with all the super fighters from the underground world, Sylvia was just a normal human


    being. Henry''s enemies were far more powerful than he could imagine, and he couldn''t say for sure


    that he could walk away alive. Henry never thought he was invincible, and he knew there were so


    many close calls he was just lucky enough to get passed. Even a fool could tell that the trip to


    Recluse Association was full of dangers. If it weren''t for Sackcloth Visitor who showed up that day,


    Andrew would have taken action against Henry already.


    Henry loved Sylvia. From the moment of that chilly winter, she had had Henry''s heart. Henry came


    back here for her, repaying her kindness. Since he had done that, Henry would leave in peace, after


    knowing that Sylvia would be having a wonderful life without him. If somehow Henry managed to


    defeat his enemies and came back to Sylvia in one piece, he would hold her tight and tell her that


    he would stay with her forever.


    Henry walked out of the vi. He turned back and looked at the vi for onest time. With a smile


    on his face, he walked on.


    Henry suddenly stopped his footsteps.


    "Leaving?" Sylvia stood in front of Henry.


    Henry opened his mouth but did not say anything. He just nodded.


    Sylvia asked, "When are youing back?"


    Henry shook his head and said with some difficulty, "I don''t know."


    ''TH be waiting for you," Sylvia took one step forward to Henry. She helped him to button the cor


    button on Henry''s coat, "Whatever happens."


    She said it so normal and peaceful as if Henry was only heading out for a small errand.

    Sylvia''s words warmed Henry''s heart. He lifted his arms, wanting to hold Sylvia. But Henry stopped


    himself. He was afraid he might not have the courage to leave after having Sylvia in his arms.


    Sylvia noticed Henry''s struggle. She smiled and said, "That''s it. Back home soon."


    "Sure," Henry booped Sylvia''s nose. He then walked away and never turned back.


    Watching Henry leaving, tears rolled down Sylvia''s cheeks.


    Henry and Sackcloth Visitor were going to a ce called Forbidden Canyon in Europe. The natural


    maic field rendered this ce a forbidden area to the outsiders. Airnes couldn''t navigate due


    to the ma interfering. No electronics could survive either, so no pictures or video footages about


    that ce were avable.


    Rumors had it that the mountains in the canyon kept changing over time. But no one could confirm


    that since even the most experienced expedition team could get lost in it.


    Henry naturally heard about the reputation of Forbidden Canyon.


    As soon as the ne Henry and Sackcloth Visitor were onnded in the European airport, they


    were met by the members of Recluse Association.


    "It seems that Andrew Garfield has been keeping tabs on us."


    A member of Recluse Association said calmly to Henry, "Recluse Association is everywhere."
