Chapter 127 Cause (1/2)
Darren performed too well. His performance stunned everyone in the area. Only Elsa had a smile on her face, appearing very calm. She knew that Darren always excelled in surprising people. Never before in his life had he failed in any venture he had taken.
”Oh my goodness! This man really is powerful,” exclaimed Cathy with her widened eyes.
”Cathy, I remember that you wanted to join the supreme disciple election. I am allowing you to go now,” Colin said with a smile.
”Hum. Grandpa, I know you are making fun of me. Even Darren himself said that the test was too dangerous. Stop messing with me already,” cried Cathy in anger.
”Ha-ha,” everyone laughed. They all understood that the little girl was frightened.
”Darren, come with me. I want to talk with you alone for a minute,” said Colin, just ignoring Cathy.
”Elsa, let me show you to the inner department,” the Outer Elder Richard hurriedly said with enthusiasm.
Elsa did not answer.
”Just go, Elsa. I will come and find you later,” Darren assured her. As he saw that Elsa didn't give Richard any response, he knew that she was waiting for his words.
Elsa then nodded and made an obeisance to Richard by cupping one hand in the other before her chest. She said, ”Thank you. Please lead the way, and I will follow you.”
Then she followed Richard away, while Darren left with Colin.
”You rock!” said Colin as he and Darren walked towards an open area without other people, showing great excitement. ”I indeed misjudged your real battle power. No doubt you are the genius of the geniuses. I did not expect that you could unleash such a powerful force as good as that of a cultivator at the top stage of the Mysterious Realm, while your cultivation is just at the first stage of the Mysterious Realm. It's crazy, ha-ha.”
Darren just now realized that Colin had always been quite calm, but as they came to this place without other people, Colin blushed with excitement. How excited could he be? Darren kept an awkwardly short silence.
”Ah, you probably overrated me,” responded Darren in a low-key tone.
”You are too modest. To be honest, my people and I might need you to help us save face this time,” said Colin. At the time, he acted not as serious as he had just been, but rather like an old man just enjoying his final days.
”Mr. Li, please make it clear to me what is really going on with the Holy Maiden's groom selection competition,” asked Darren because he did not understand why the Lotus Holy Land was forced to accept Belle's groom selection competition when they actually opposed it. He also had no idea how his sister ended up in her position of being the Holy Maiden of the Lotus Holy Land.
Colin waited for a moment and replied, ”Take your time. You have to come with me so that I could tell you about it.”
