Talented Martial Hero -
Chapter 477 Finally There Was A Clue (Part Two)
And I am with Timothy now. He is about to give up. It's like torture. We will come for you as soon aswe get out of this mess. Take care and be careful!” This message was long and sincere.
"Wait, what torture? What happened to Timothy? What's going on?" asked Darren hurriedly. Butthere was no response forthcoming.
And there was still no response on the second day. Darren decided to put it aside for now. Hiscurrent priority was rescuing his sister and he must focus.
Darren studied the formula for a total of 10 days, which was quite a long time, and finally, hegrasped a superficial knowledge of it. It was no easy task, to be fair. And now he couldcommunicate with several Hiding Rule lines and construct something on it. But he was still clumsy. Itwould take him a little longer to fully grasp it.
On the 11th day, someone knocked on his door. Darren had no clue who it could be.
It was the first visitor in days and the sound of knocking felt unreal. It echoed in the place and inDarren's ears.
"Who is it?" Darren didn't open the door, in case it was an unwanted guest out there. He was takingall the extra super cautious precautions.
"Sir, the young master is asking for you. He said it was urgent,” the man outdoor responded withouthesitation, with a clear and firm voice.
"Good. I heard that. I will go now, thank you. You can leave now," Darren responded plainly.
Darren even smartened up a bit before he left the room. Irrespective of everything else, he stillwanted to make a good impression.
The hall was completely empty. There was no sign of Carey anywhere whatsoever. Darren stood inthe middle of the hall, closed his eyes, and waited. And after a short while, a ghostly figureapproached him. Darren felt the presence even with his eyes closed.
"Follow me," silently whispered the shadow before disappearing around the corner. And it turnedout to be Carey, who was really indifferent in attitude. What a bizarre turn of events.
Darren didn't know what game Carey was playing, but he wasn't afraid of him at all. Therefore,Darren followed Carey closely as he was told. The place was deadly quiet.
They walked for quite a long time, through numerous halls and corridors. Then, Carey stopped infront of a secret room. At that moment, Darren knew that something had happened. Something big.He attempted to ready himself.
"Young master, you suddenly look worried. May I ask you what happened?” Darren looked straightat Carey's eyes, with a fixed gaze.
Carey's face grew even more solemn. It was clear he was in pain. "Kaleb, I treat you as my brother.And what I am going to tell you is a matter of life and death. Please listen carefully and help me. It isquite a serious matter.”
"Of course, of course, young master." Carey shook with terror. Darren frowned.
"My father and my uncle are both dead. It is true."
"What? How? When?"
Darren took the news extremely hard. Although he had never met the master of the Red InfernoSect, he could pretty much ascertain that the man must be an extremely powerful rule cultivator,based on the fragment of the master’s soul in the crystal ball. How could a man that powerful die sosuddenly? It was unfathomable.
"Young master, can you please tell me exactly what happened to the master and your uncle? I can'tbelieve it, it's unbelievable..." The astonishment Darren expressed was true and genuine.
"The truth is, I have no idea what happened to them. All I know is that my father entered theforbidden area and locked himself inside, trying to induce the Primitive Feminine Bloodline into hisbody. If he had succeeded, he would have walked out invincible and unparalleled. But I am afraidthat the opposite occurred. Something horrific may have probably attacked his soul. That is all Iknow." A shade of sadness and restlessness could be seen in Carey's dull eyes.
Carey had attacked the sect forbidden area as soon as he realized that something was wrong. But itwas too powerful and well-protected for him to break through. He failed.
"And young master summoned me for..um summoned me for..."
Of course Darren knew what Carey wanted him for. If the news broke, the other high ranking leadersof the sect would immediately carry out an assassination against Carey and usurp the throne. Darrenwas no fool.
"Oh, Kaleb. I am afraid the moment the news leaks would be the moment of my death. But I want tolive and I want to carry on the sect. Do you understand me now? You are my most trusted friend.And I am asking you to help me. I am not wishing for the impossible. All I want is to have you by myside when the news breaks," said Carey sincerely. "Otherwise I'm afraid all hell will break loose!" Ofcourse that was not all that Carey wanted and Darren knew that. He just bid his time until Carey spiltout all the beans.
"Of course, young master. You can count on me. Anything for you.” Darren lowered his head toavoid direct eye contact so Carey would not catch the insincerity in Darren's eyes.
"Anything for me? Oh Kaleb, thank you, that's great. I knew I could count on you. Listen, here is theplan: for your own safety and mine, we must suppress the three most powerful grand-elders in thesect. It is imperative! But we are no match for them now. So we have to kidnap, kill, and seize thesouls of the several hundred men who have a Primitive Feminine Bloodline. Then we can force thePrimitive Feminine Bloodline into our bodies and master the inferior true rule. Is it clear so far? Ok.But if we want the Primitive Feminine Bloodline, we must have three keys to open the place wherethose people are locked. I have one key. The second key belongs to my uncle, which I have alreadygotten it. And the last one is in the pocket of the three grand-elders. So I am asking you to stealthat key from them, from the three grand-elders. Will you do it, Kaleb?" The moment Carey foundhis uncle's dead body, he took the key and burned the corpse.
And at the moment, the only thing Darren cared about was his sister's whereabouts. Finally, itseemed there was a clue.
