Kapitel 734: The Darkness Falls

"Don't worry, we will be ready this time," Burak patted Hao Xuan's shoulder reassuringly, getting a nod in return. They watched the other barbarians eat, drink and dance as the night reached its darkest hours.

Hao Xuan's eyes strayed towards the silent barbarian sitting to the side, Jarek, who turned around to meet his gaze.

He gave half a nod with a twitchy smile that made Hao Xuan chuckle. Even this strange creature had somehow managed to grow on him.

Hao Xuan got up and walked up to him, taking the seat next to him.

"Like that, but smoother. Control your facial muscles better, the ones right next to your eyes and ears. Don't smile just with your lips," he whispered.
