Chapter 931 Enter The Holy Emperors Tomb (1/2)

”Are you all right?” Hailey asked indifferently. However, the concern in her eyes was rather evident.

”I'm fine. Thanks.” Darren nodded calmly. In truth, he actually felt a bit embarrassed.

A lump came into Hailey's throat. ”Where is Elsa?” she asked after a moment of silence. ”Is she okay?”

Hailey had spent some time with Elsa, but she chose to leave silently when Elsa and Darren had reconciled.

Hearing Elsa's name, Darren gave a bitter smile.

”No.”

”What happened? Did you two get into a fight?” Hailey asked.

”No. It's a long story. We can talk about it later.” At the moment, Darren didn't want to say anything more about the matter.

Hailey felt that Darren didn't want to talk about it, so she had no choice but to drop the topic. She thought for a while and continued, ”Don't you want to know how I gained my strength?”

”Well, I already have an idea. You must have had a lot of adventures. Anyway, my friends are still there. I have to go and find them,” Darren said, turning around to leave. ”See you later,” he added.

There was nothing Hailey could do but stand frozen in place. The way Darren was acting so coldly towards her made her want to cry.

A gentle gust of wind blew over; she watched as his figure fly away slowly. A part of Hailey wanted to call out to Darren. 'Stay here for a while longer, ' she thought. But she did not have the courage to say those words out loud.

”Hailey, are you and Darren...?”

Anthony suddenly appeared behind Hailey.

”What do you want to know?” Hailey said, her lips pressed into a fine line.

”Nothing.” Anthony felt that there was something going on between Darren and Hailey, but thought that it wasn't worth mentioning. ”You've exposed your real strength, Hailey,” he said, quickly changing the subject. ”I'm afraid you can't partake in the superior talent contest.”

”Why not?”
