Chapter 60 Some Things Are Inevitable (2/2)
More importantly, they looked like they were in their early thirties, a young age for auras to be so great.
'Who are these people? How did they acquire such formidable power at such a young age? They must have reached the sixth or seventh stage of the Mysterious Realm!' Darren thought to himself
forehead as he took in the figure.
Terror took over the faces of the others as well. 'Who is this boy? He is way too strong, ' they thought.
Staring at Darren's back, Elsa was astonished yet deeply intrigued. As far as she could remember, only Cody possessed such power among all the young disciples of the School of Sword Skill. But she could tell by his back that the person standing before her was just a teenager. 'It can't be Cody. Who is he?' she wondered, echoing the thoughts of the bullies but tinted with an opposite emotion.
”Are you all right, Elsa?” Darren inquired as he turned around.
”It's you, D-Darren.”
The typical cold and indifferent expression on her face disappeared. Her voice carried a dash of delight and resounding surprise.
It had never occurred to her that Darren would have come to her rescue. 'I heard that he went to the Barren Wasteland and was eaten by a fiend. How is that he's still alive?
And not only alive. He seems stronger, much stronger. He defeated a cultivator at the fourth stage of the Spirit Realm with one move. What's going on?' Elsa was overwhelmed by questions.
But when she saw the simple, innocent smile on Darren's face, she was overjoyed and relieved.
”It's really you, Darren. I'm so glad to see you come back safe and sound,” Elsa said, smiling.
”Brat, you'd better stay out of this, or we, the disciples of the School of Blade Skill will not spare you,” one of the bullies warned. Although they were wary of Darren's strength, they weren't afraid of him. After all, they worked for Dalton, and they were certain no one dared to stand up to him.
”Get lost!”
With a shout, Darren stretched out his hand and opened his palm at the men. Internal force exploded from his palm and shot toward disciples of the School of Blade Skill. A moment later, they were blown into the air, blood spilling from their mouths as they dropped back to the ground.
Elsa was stunned at the scene.
