Talented Martial Hero
Chapter 324 Appoint A Fight (Part One)

"Bryan, I know you want to kill me as much as I want to kill you. But it's not the time we settle thehatred between us!" said Darren through clenched teeth. Since Bryan had taken Diana as a hostage,Darren dared not to rush into a fight with him at this moment. He knew that saving Diana from thehands of his enemies would be even more difficult if he defeated or even killed Bryan.

"Bring Diana to the Lotus Holy Land on the third day of the seventh lunar month. I'll have a duelwith you on that day to settle all the grudges between us. Only one of us will survive while the otherone will be killed without mercy. You will never see me again if you dare hurt the Holy Lord Diana.Understand?" Darren spoke those words in an attempt of securing Diana's safety and saving her inthe future. He knew well that Bryan hated him so much that he would never replace peace unless hekilled him with his own hands.

"Do you think you can escape your doom in your fight with our Holy Lord, bastard?" said the ChiefElder, standing arrogantly by Bryan's side.

"What a noisy beast! Go to hell!" roared Darren. He turned around to swing his sword at the ChiefElder of the Blade Holy Land. One moment, Darren's sword flashed in the air and the next moment,the Chief Elder's legs had been cut off.

"No!" Seeing the mishap of his companion both enraged and frightened the other elder. To protecthimself from being attacked by Darren, he rushed towards Bryan without delay.

"Holy Lord, please kill that bastard and take revenge for us!" The elder wept as he trembled by theHoly Lord's side.

Bryan's face contorted in extreme fury—the scene was an absolute atrocity. He then immediatelyturned around to launch a surprise attack at Darren.

Instead of darting towards Bryan and warding off his attack, Darren swiftly backed off to avoid thefight and flew away at a fast speed.

"Don’t come after me, Bryan. Let's fight at the ruins of the Lotus Holy Land on the third day of theseventh lunar month if you want to kill me!” Darren called out as he fleeted away.

Bryan no doubt was able to move as fast as Darren, but it would be hard for him to catch up toDarren now as the latter had escaped in advance of him. However, still blinded by fury, Bryanchased after Darren with all his might because he couldn't bear to let his enemy get away fromunder his nose.

"What a stubborn man! Can't you just stop and let me go?" Darren had noticed Bryan closelybehind him. Getting tired of the pursuit, he activated the Blood Dragon Phantom skill to produceeight avatars of himself.

Every avatar, each owning a powerful blade and sword intent as well, ran towards Bryan andlaunched attacks at him, one after another.

The avatars forced Bryan back several dozen feet away, preventing him from advancing any further.While Bryan was stuck fighting with the avatars, Darren continued his escape and soon disappearedfrom view.

The sound of Darren's laughter lingered in the air. Seeing his enemy escape made Bryan furious. Hethrashed about with the insanity of a madman and roared with the ferocity of a wild beast. "Darren,you bastard! You'll be dead on our fight at the Lotus Holy Land on the third day of the seventh lunarmonth! I'll slice every single piece of your flesh until you breathe out your last breath!"

Bryan launched several attacks in quick succession.

The legendary martial blade skill he used immediately obliterated a couple of Darren's avatars.Taking advantage of this critical moment when Bryan was dealing with the several other avatars, therest of the avatars came together in one body and attacked, leaving several wounds on his body.Bryan initiated another attack to destroy all of Darren's remaining avatars.

He was both enraged and frightened by the fact that Darren's avatars were able to hurt him. He haddefinitely underestimated the strength of the avatars.

"Holy Lord!" The only unwounded elder on the spot flew towards Bryan as fast as he could. His facewas immediately filled with surprise and worry at seeing the wounds that were inflicted on theirlord's body.

"Holy Lord, are you really going to meet with the bastard on the third day of the lunar month withDiana? I'm afraid there might be a trap waiting for you. That bastard is so cunning!" The elder saidafter a few moments of silence.

"Shut up!” roared Bryan, baring his teeth in anger. The power in his voice contained such immensestrength that it blew the elder a few hundred feet away. He pondered for a little while before tellingthat same elder, "Go and ask for help from Mr. Gerald. We must kill that bastard on that day!"

"A smart decision, Holy Lord!" A smile flashed on the elder's face upon hearing Bryan's words. Hewas glad that their Holy Lord didn't lose his head under the influence of his hatred towards hisenemy. Instead of killing Darren on his own, he chose the most secured means with the assistanceof a powerful helper.

The elder had witnessed how strong Darren was. That young man was an equal match for their HolyLord, who was about to achieve the Grand Realm level. If Bryan went for the challenge alone withoutany preparation, there was a great possibility that great danger would fall upon him if Darrenhappened to be playing some tricks on him.

With the help of a two-star grand warrior, he would be invincible even if Darren had numeroustricks up his sleeve. No amount of trickery and deceit would help Darren escape from his doomedfate now.

"The third day of the seventh lunar month is just one month away. Just wait, you bastard! The day ofyour death is not far away!" The elder wore a sly grin. Having watched how Darren cut off the limbsof his companions, he had housed endless hatred against Darren in the heart of his hearts.

In just three days, the news of how Darren had cut off the limbs of the elders of the Blade Holy Landhad spread to every corner of every Holy Land.

With the circulation of the news from one person to another, Darren was described as the god offight. The appointment to be held on the third day of the seventh lunar month was also talkedabout in every part of the Holy Lands.

"Seems like Darren has achieved a lot in his martial arts. I know he practices blade and sword skillsat the same time. I must go to the Lotus Holy Land to watch the fight with my own eyes," Holy LordLandon of the Lightning Holy Land said to an old man by his side. Landon didn't believe the newswhen he first heard about it, so he went to the Blade Holy Land to confirm it. He was shocked afterhe had found out that everything was true as the news told.
