During their investigation, the Wen brothers sought help from Bobby, who was paralyzed. Bobby was tempted and took a gamble after finding a wizard, only to lose 25 years of his life.
When Dean found the wizard, he discovered Bobby. To save Bobby, Dean made a deal with the wizard to exchange 50 years of his life, 25 of which were spent helping Bobby return to his original form.
And then—Dean lost.
Having lost 50 years of his life, Dean instantly turned into an old man.
Dean and his group originally planned to steal the wizard's bargaining chip in an attempt to break the witchcraft and restore life.
Now, they have another option.
After informing Caroline and Bonnie about the mission, Sue checked into a hotel, put away their luggage, and then took them to the room of the mission employer.
"Bang bang bang."
The door opened as Bonnie knocked.
Sam was somewhat surprised to see the unfamiliar Bonnie and Caroline. Just as he was about to speak, he saw Sue.
“Su Shi.” Sam called out his name with delight, then turned and excitedly called inside, “Dean, Bobby.”
The two people in the room who heard the shouts walked to the door, their expressions also showing excitement.
then……
"Pfft..." Madam Su couldn't help but burst into laughter.
Although I was mentally prepared, I still couldn't help but laugh when I saw Dean turn into an old man.
Okay, it's a gloating laugh.
Dean's initial excitement at seeing his 'savior' was instantly extinguished by Su's unrestrained laughter. Dean said with a dark face, "Is it that funny? Even if I get old, I'll still be a handsome old man!"
"What do you two ladies think?"
Caroline and Bonnie didn't play along at all, and Dean could only shrug sheepishly.
"Bobby said someone had taken on the task from the gold exchange, but I didn't expect it to be you personally. Um... thanks."
After the Lilith incident, the relationship between the Wen brothers and the Su family became somewhat awkward. Although it had nothing to do with friendship, they were opposed to each other only because of their different positions, but they had gone from friends to enemies.
The Su family also killed the Wen brothers once.
Last time, when Dean was thrown to the future by the angel Zechariah, Cassidio made a deal with Sue, and Sue went to the future to 'rescue' Dean.
After that, Dean pondered how to get Sue to forgive him.
They happened to be in trouble this time, so they wanted to issue a mission through Joanna Beth. On the one hand, they definitely wanted to resolve the trouble, and on the other hand, they also wanted to ease tensions and test the Su family's attitude.
If the task is accepted, it naturally means that the Su family is not opposed to continuing to have dealings with them.
They just didn't expect the Su family to come in person, which is why the Wen brothers and Bobby were so excited!
“Ninja Caroline, witch Bonnie, I’ve been training them recently, so I’ll accept the mission in Caroline’s name.”
"The Witcher brothers, Dean, Sam, and Bobby the Witcher in the wheelchair."
You said they are...brothers?
Looking at Dean, with his gray hair and loose skin, and then at Sam, who is tall, handsome, and youthful, Caroline and Bonnie find it hard to believe that they are brothers!

It's understandable that Caroline and Bonnie were surprised that the Winklers, who didn't know each other and whose appearances showed a significant age difference, were brothers.
After the Winkler brothers and Bobby explained the reason, they accepted that Dean and Sam were brothers, but... they were even more shocked that a wizard would use his life as a bargaining chip!
"Can you do something like that?" Caroline asked Bonnie curiously.
Bonnie rolled her eyes and didn't say anything, thinking to herself, "I'm just a newly minted witch. I haven't even mastered the witchcraft and magic passed down in my family yet. How could I possibly know such advanced witchcraft that uses life as a bargaining chip?"
Su gestured for Caroline to look at the task posted by Bobby on the gold exchange, then smiled and asked her, "Which of the two solutions do you choose?"
Caroline frowned and said, "I probably can't do any of that."
Whether it's finding a way to restore her vitality or dealing with that wizard, both are impossible tasks for Caroline in her current state.
Su chuckled and said, "That's not necessarily true. If it's just a clue to restore life force, you can easily complete the mission. After all, the reward for the mission is just some knowledge about demon hunting and supernatural creatures. Exchanging clues for knowledge is quite reasonable."
"Ah..." Caroline realized and chuckled, "Right, I almost forgot."
“Can I use the clues to complete the mission?” Caroline looked at Bobby.
Bobby actually wished he could regain his youth or defeat the wizard and then regain his youth, but since he had made that promise on the mission, he could only accept it.
Seeing Bobby nod, Caroline chuckled and said, "Chakra Pills! A special pill that can only be refined by the God of Shinobi. The quality of the pills varies. The most basic and ordinary Chakra Pills can increase chakra and vitality, while the advanced ones can grant corresponding special abilities depending on the type of pill!"
Upon hearing this, the Wen brothers and Bobby immediately looked at Madam Su.
Su shrugged: "I only provide it internally, and it needs to be completed."
“I’m a ninja too,” Dean said hastily.
Su glanced at him without saying a word. "You're a damn ninja. Ever since you became a ninja, have you been properly cultivating your chakra?"
Besides, you were a ninja before, so how dare you be my enemy?
"The mission is complete. Deliver your payment to the Witcher's Bar as soon as possible. As for your life force, I will help you retrieve it."
Looking at the Wen brothers and Bobby, whose faces were beaming with joy, Su waved her hand and said, "Don't be too happy yet, there are conditions."
"First: Promote the Gold Exchange within your circle; Second: Provide the Gold Exchange with information about supernatural beings or events free of charge. Would you accept?"
“We accept.” The Wen brothers and Bobby nodded in agreement without hesitation.
"Where is that wizard?" Su asked directly.
The reason for accepting this task is simple: firstly, it allows Caroline to complete the task, which will increase her experience points and also grant her the 'knowledge' Bobby requested.
As a professional supporter of the Wen brothers, Bobby has a very rich collection, which can provide a lot of help for the ninjas' future actions and missions.
Secondly, there's this wizard. Although even if you extract the wizard's chakra energy to make chakra pills, it's unlikely you'd gain the ability to manipulate 'life', his chakra pills would definitely be helpful to the wizard.
Bonnie's skills still need to be improved.
At a hotel room, Dean, panting heavily, volunteered to knock on the door.
With a loud knocking, a 35-year-old man with brown hair and an Irish accent appeared before them.
Patrick, the wizard they were looking for.
"So many people? Heh, sometimes having more people isn't necessarily useful." Patrick recognized the Wen brothers and Bobby, and also saw the three Su family members, and chuckled smugly.
"Fifty years, are you in?" Su asked directly.
Patrick raised an eyebrow: "Of course, why not?"
Turning around, Patrick took a stack of chips from the safe and sat down at one end of the table.
As Sue took her seat, Patrick chanted a spell over the chips. A glint of light flashed on the chips before disappearing.
Patrick gestured for Su to take the chips, but Su shook her head slightly: "One chip represents one year of lifespan? Let's give each of them twenty-five years."
“Are you sure?” Patrick asked, somewhat surprised. “That’s fifty years of life.”
Su shrugged: "Believe me, what I have most of is my life."
"what ever."
Patrick nonchalantly chanted the spell over the chips again, and the chips split into two, quickly burning and turning to ashes that flew towards Dean and Bobby.
Ashes enveloped them, Dean and Bobby's appearances rapidly changed, instantly reverting to their original ages.
Patrick smiled smugly, and was about to ask Su if she wanted to exchange her chips to win back her life, when he was surprised to find that Su's appearance had not changed at all.
· ····Requesting flowers·· ······
Still so young.
"How can it be?!"
"You lost fifty years of your life, how could you not have grown old, or even changed at all?"
Su said calmly, "Didn't I just say that what I have most of is my life?"
"Impossible! How many lives do you have?"
Su shrugged: "I'd like to know the answer to that question too!"
Patrick smiled, a gleam of interest flashing in his eyes.
Clearly, this guy is definitely not an ordinary human. He has a lot of life? Heh, that's what makes it interesting.
"continue?"
"Of course! But let's try an easier way to play: compare sizes."
.... ... .......
Su casually said, "You've lived for over nine hundred years, so you must have won quite a few lives. I'll exchange a thousand years for that, shouldn't that be enough?"
"If I win, you die. If you win, you live for another thousand years!"
"in or out?"
Patrick's smile froze instantly; this was the first time he had ever encountered someone taking such a high-stakes gamble.
This is a thousand years of life, not a hundred years, not ten years, and not a year!
He just casually made a bet like that? And the implication from his words just now was clear: he has more than a thousand years left to live.
"Who...who exactly are you?" Patrick couldn't help but ask.
Su raised an eyebrow: "Are you scared?"
“I…” Patrick hesitated, then shook his head, got up, and went to get his chips.
Scared?
