Zhao Lin believed his top priority was to get his family out of the city. Otherwise, his hands would be tied, making him an easy target for the bandits.
But smuggling three people out of the city while avoiding the bandits' spies was beyond his abilities. After much thought, he concluded he had to ask Zhu Huaishan for help.
Logically, he was just an apprentice of the Liuhe Sect, not a true disciple. His life and death were none of Zhu Huaishan's concern.
But Zhao Lin possessed an exceptional "aptitude" for martial arts. 'If Zhu Huaishan recognizes me as a promising talent, he might be willing to help.'
Regardless, Zhao Lin decided to try. If Zhu Huaishan was worried about bringing trouble upon himself and refused to get involved, he would have to find another way.
