Old Lin nodded his head as he stared at the middle-aged man in silver armor in front of him and answered seriously
''Naturally, I wouldn't call you here for no reason. Commander Quan, there are some guests that the city lord has personally invited here, and as per the city lord's instructions, you will be the one to protect them while they stay in our city.''
''Protect?'' The silver-armored middle-aged man, Quan Lin mumbled, as he stared at 'old Lin' with a look of surprise on his face.
Although there had been cases in the past where certain powerful people were invited in the Sovereign's estate by the Northern Sovereign herself, there had never been a case where an exalted peak Dao Emperor like Quan Lin would be assigned to personally protect those people.
Besides, most people who were invited to the Sovereign's estate as guests, would usually be extremely powerful individuals who had no need for protection in the first place.
