Chapter 197 Stunning Strength (Part Two) (1/2)
Scott was of the dragon's blood and he was just half a step away from the Grand Realm level, so it was a given fact that he was physically much stronger than Darren.
”Let's leave this place, Scott.”
Darren pulled Scott to his feet and held him tightly in his arms as he flew upwards. He had to leave the place immediately. As a human with blood and flesh, he would be scorched to death by the hot temperature from the lava if he lingered there for long. Darren felt astonished that with powerful one hit, the man was able to drive Scott to the center of the earth. Such was the strength of a Grand Realm warrior. Such power was sure to drive fear into anybody's heart.
A gush of air filled Darren's ears as he flew up with Scott at an extremely fast speed towards the surface of the earth. The moment they reached the surface, Darren felt the man's gaze burning through him.
”Spare his life, please.”
Darren stared at the man's face for a long time before asking for mercy.
The man looked into Darren's eyes with a look full of both arrogance and coldness. Half hidden in the black smoke, the man kept silent for a while. Then, a voice resounded in Darren's mind, ”You owe this to me.”
Then the man turned around and walked away, still afloat in the air.
With each forceful step of his, the sky rumbled, making thunder-like noises as the air stirred.
Soon, the man completely disappeared from Darren's view.
The moment the man was out of sight, Darren was finally able to let out a sigh of relief.
Darren took in deep breaths as if he had never breathed better air before. It was as if he had just crawled out from under a gigantic mountain.
He had no idea why the man in black armor accepted his pleas and spared Scott. Nor did he understand what he meant by ”You owe this to me.” All he knew, and all he cared about in that moment was that Scott had to live, and he must do everything in his power to save him.
