Chapter 898 The Fiends Arms Liberation (1/2)
In the Sacred Palace, Chandler hurried to where the lord was.
He found him sitting cross-legged and cultivating.
Hearing Chandler come in, Lord Donald stood up.
”Why are you in such a hurry, sir?”
Lord Donald appeared to be calm. He seemed to be more relaxed when Darren had returned.
”I bring bad news,” Chandler reported. His face was grim.
Lord Donald faced him. ”Is there anything happening in the forbidden area?”
He had felt the ground shake but it ended as quickly as it started.
However, seeing Chandler's face made him worry.
”Yes...”
”Tell me what's happening.” Lord Donald motioned for Chandler to sit down.
”A while back, when I heard the news about the unusual movement in the forbidden area, I went to investigate. I found Barnes trying to draw out the halberd of Hiram the Great, which is being used to suppress the fiend's arm!”
”What?!”
Lord Donald's face changed dramatically. This was a serious situation. Once Hiram the Great's halberd was pulled out, the fiend's arm· would surely escape.
It was not a big deal that only one arm of the fiend escaped. What they were most worried about was that the fiend's arm attacking other forbidden areas. If the fiend became whole again, they would all be in peril.
”I'll go and tell Darren,” Lord Donald said, walking out of the room.
”No, there is no need for that!” Chandler stopped him. ”Darren is not yet strong enough to go up against Barnes and the fiend.”
”But Darren said he had the power of a half-step emperor at his peak,” said Lord Donald, confused.
”I sensed the aura of Barnes just now. I guess that he might have surpassed the peak level of a half-step emperor. He has gotten much stronger than he was when we had last seen him. So, it is useless to send Darren there.”
The fiend weakened part of the force that suppressed Barnes, which allowed Barnes to gain more of his strength and become as powerful as a six-tribulation senior holy warrior. Darren would surely die if he faced both Barnes and the fiend.
”What do you suggest then?”
