Chapter 870 Is That True (2/2)

”His strength is not of this world. I might not be able to resist it much longer.”

Darren staggered back by the force of it. The combination of raw power and a masterful martial arts skill was too much.

”But I'm not going to give up just yet!”

Darren gritted his teeth in defiance. His fighting spirit was threatening to burst out of him like a flood. Until finally, it

becoming apparent to him that this must be another resurrected corpse. But it was baffling how it seemed to have a mind of its own and arrogant at that.

Darren knew that a tribulation holy warrior who had a mind of his own was very hard to deal with. Even those in the low level would prove to be difficult for him to defeat.

Judging by this one's domineering aura and manners, it was likely that he would be far stronger than the two-tribulation inferior holy warrior that he had just defeated.

”I won't kneel down. Go to hell!”

Darren forced himself to remain calm. He pushed away the fear threatening to well up inside him.

”You are nothing but a puppet. I don't think you will truly kill me,” he added scornfully.

He knew that this man was simply a weapon wielded by the Space-time Palace. He had no control of his actions. But Darren could also sense that this man didn't wish to kill him either for if he had intentions of killing him, he would have done it a while ago without hesitation.

Then, a shadow jumped out of the darkness and stood beside the black-armored man.

”You sure do have some guts.”

”I'm flattered to hear that, but please, who are you?” Darren asked, sarcastically. Up to this point, he knew that a fight would be inevitable especially since he still couldn't find an escape.

”Call me Misty Emperor!” the shadow replied.

Darren rolled his eyes at that. ”Everyone in the world wants to become a holy emperor nowadays. And then they call themselves that when in fact they're only pretending to be one.”

The shadow stepped towards Darren, threateningly.

”According to the information I got about you, you mentioned many times that you've seen a holy emperor somewhere.”

The shadow had disregarded personal boundaries as he got close enough to Darren for their breath to mingle in the scant space between them. ”Is that true?”

Then, a loud rumble cut through the air.

The ground shook violently and everything around them began to collapse. Layer by layer, the space began peeling off until Darren could only feel an indomitable aura enveloping him wholly.
