Talented Martial Hero
Chapter 1153 The Invitation

In the dim light, a man in a black robe walked down the stairs.

Scar and the short man bowed to the man and said, "Nice to see you, Larkin."

"Oh, come on. You and I are like brothers. You don't have to bow." Larkin patted Scar's shoulder.Darren glanced at Larkin and felt that Larkin was at least at the top level of the Primary God Realm!The top level of the Primary God Realm was higher than the upper-level of the Primary God Realm.After the Primary God Realm, the next level was the Domain God Realm.

There were four main realms: the Primary God Realm, the Domain God Realm, the Star God Realm,and the Celestial God Realm. Breaking through to a higher realm was an extremely arduous task.However, when a cultivator broke through to a new realm, his or her strength would significantlyincrease.

Darren was only at the middle-level of the Primary God Realm. It was already an incredible thing forhim to kill an upper-level primary god. However, it would be unimaginable for him to win a fightagainst a primary god at the top level.

"Larkin, here's the thing. This guy is about to enter the Starry Sword Region. He has killed more thanten masters from our mountain. Can you help me kill him?" Scar asked.

"Yeah, Larkin. You're the probationary guard of the Cloud Forest Sect. Even if the guards of theStarry Sword Region found out what you've done, they wouldn't dare to do anything to you. Afterall, this guy is not a disciple yet,” the short man said.

The Cloud Forest Sect was one of the orthodox sects of the Blood Cloud Region.

"No matter who he says he is, if he lays a hand on my people, I will destroy him." Larkin's sharp eyesseemed to pierce through Darren.

"Ha-ha! Wow, your love for your people is really moving," Scar said with joy. Larkin was a homelessorphan. When he was just a little boy, the villagers from the mountains found him wanderingaimlessly. Soon, they adopted him and raised him as their own. He was a talented young man. Hisstrength improved rapidly in a short time, so the Cloud Forest Sect took an interest in him. Later on,they recruited him to become a probationary guard.

Larkin then walked towards Darren.

“The middle-level of the Primary God Realm?"

Larkin probed for Darren's cultivation base and frowned.

He couldn't believe that a middle-level primary god could single-handedly kill more than a dozenupper-level primary gods.

"Hey, what's your name?" Larkin suddenly asked Darren.

"It's none of your business,” Darren replied coldly.

"Ha-ha! You're a tough guy. I'm impressed. I think you have potential, so I want to give you a chanceto live."

Scar and the short man looked at each other in confusion.

"Larkin, how can you spare him? He killed so many of our people.”

"Don't worry. I have a plan.” Upon hearing this, Scar shut his mouth.

Darren did not understand what Larkin meant, so he asked, "What do you want, huh? Do you wantme to work for you?”

"Ha-ha, you're a clever young man. But I'm not asking you to work for me. I want you to join ourCloud Forest Sect," Larkin said.

"What?!" Scar and the short man's face changed dramatically at the same time.

"Larkin! Why don't you kill him? And why are you offering him such privileges? Is this how you repaythe kindness that our villagers have given you?" Scar shouted in fury.

Whoosh!

Suddenly, a burst of malicious aura spread out. Scar and the short man were forced to take a fewsteps back.

"Shut up. The death of these people is not important. Understood? What matters is that the CloudForest Sect needs young talents!"

"What?" Scar was completely dumbfounded. He invited Larkin to help him get rid of his enemy.Instead, Larkin recommended Darren to the Cloud Forest Sect!

"You ungrateful rascal! I hope you die a horrible death!” Scar cursed in rage.

"Shut up, Scar! For the sake of our friendship, I forgive you this time. Don't you dare curse me again,or I will finish you!" Larkin's aura instantly became freezing cold and his killing intent was daunting."You... Fine! Let's go!" Scar shivered with rage and left with the short man.

"So, buddy, may I have your name?" Larkin turned to Darren and said in a calm tone

Darren was not ignorant. Since Larkin held no enmity towards him, he was relaxed. He then repliedin a low voice, "It's Darren Chu."

"Darren, you are extraordinarily talented.

You heard what I just said. As a probationary guard, I officially invite you to the Cloud Forest Sect toparticipate in the sect examination. Darren, will you accept my invitation?" Larkin offered with asmile.

For a moment, Darren hesitated.

'If I refuse, I'm afraid he might kill me, * he thought to himself.

"Well, it is my honor to be invited. I accept your invitation." After thinking about it, Darren realizedthat no harm would be done if he said yes to Larkin's invitation. Although he was not sure if hewanted to join the Cloud Forest Sect, it was a great opportunity to practice his cultivation.

He just needed to make the most out of his situation.

"All right then! This trip has been worthwhile after all!" Larkin laughed.

Then, Darren and the immortal followed Larkin out of the basement. Since Larkin protected Darren,Scar didn't dare to make a move against Darren. Scar watched them leave until their shadowsdisappeared into the horizon.

On their way, Darren and Larkin got to know each other.

"Is it true that you have just been promoted from a mortal world?"

"Yes, it's true."

Darren's affirmation pleased Larkin even more. Everyone knew that all the people from the mortalworlds were geniuses! He felt so lucky to recommend Darren. If Darren successfully became adisciple of the Cloud Forest Sect, he would be promoted to a real guard of the sect!

"No wonder you can kill an upper-level primary god. That is really impressive!" Larkin couldn't helpbut praise Darren.

"No, that was just sheer fluke," Darren said modestly.

"By the way, did Scar tell you that I am a disciple of the Lord Starry Sword? Would it be appropriateat all if I accepted your invitation to join the Cloud Forest Sect?" Darren asked curiously.

"Ha-ha. Don't worry. In the Primitive Wilderness, as long as you have the strength and potential, youcan join any sect you want. Heck, you can even join ten or eight sects. No one will make thingsdifficult for you.

But of course, you can't join rival sects. If one wants to join two sects who are enemies, he will bekilled by both rival sects. This has always been the principle.

The Cloud Forest Sect is a direct subordinate sect of the Blood Cloud Region. There is no bad bloodbetween the Blood Cloud Region and the Starry Sword Region, so you can rest assured that you arein good hands,”

Larkin explained to Darren patiently.

"Oh, okay." Darren nodded. He was a little relieved. In that way, he could just join a small sect andsettle down. After he built up his strength, he could easily go out.

"However, Darren, you must do your best in the assessment. If you don't pass the examination, youwon't be recognized even if you have great potential,” Larkin said seriously.

"I understand. Thank you. I will try to do my best." Darren knew that if he passed the examination,Larkin would be rewarded by the Cloud Forest Sect. That was why Larkin was so nice to him.

"Great! Since you can easily kill an upper-level primary god, I'm sure you can pass the test too andbecome a formal disciple!" Larkin said with excitement in his eyes.
