Talented Martial Hero
Chapter 53 Returning To The Acqua City (Part Two)

"What are you doing, master? Why are you saluting this young fellow?" Seeing her master apologizeto the young man, the girl asked out of confusion. She had no idea what just happened.

Hearing the old man's apology, Darren favored him with a sneer, "Pay careful attention to yourwords and actions.”

Upon receiving this warning, the old man's face flushed with embarrassment. When he perceivedthe young man eavesdropping on their conversation, he just wanted to intimidate him by showinghim his spiritual power. What caught him by surprise was that the youngster's spiritual power wasmuch stronger than his. He tried to inspect him further to replace out his real strength, but he failed. Itwas really hard to fathom the strength of the youngster. Judging from the power the youngster haddisplayed, he guessed he was at the fifth stage of the Spirit Realm, but his intuition also told himthat his cultivation base should be higher than what he had released.

The fact that he was completely ignorant of the young man's cultivation base surprised him a lot.And what surprised him more was that the guy was just in his youth. He was so young but owned aterrific amount of power! The old man reached a final conclusion on the identity of the youngster:he must be a disciple of high status in some great sect. Realizing this, he knew he couldn't afford tooffend someone with such power, so he hastened to apologize to prevent a full blown fight. Andnow, since the youngster had received his apology and didn't want any more trouble, he decided toleave quickly.

So he replied to the girl, "Nothing you should worry about. Come, we must go.” After saying that,he once again cast an apologetic look towards Darren. He then walked towards an inn along withthe girl.

Staring at their backs as they walked away, Darren mumbled to himself, "Tomorrow would be atough day for the juniors of the Chu Clan.”

Then, without any more lingering, he headed straight for the Chu Clan.

No sooner did he step into the gates of the Chu Clan than all eyes of the servants were glued onhim.

"Ah! It's Mr. Darren. He has returned!" someone exclaimed.

"He might have returned for tomorrow's election. He has been away for half a year and I wonderwhat he has achieved during the six months he stayed in the lImen Sect.”

"What he could have achieved? That's bullshit! It is said that he has become a lame duck when hejoined the sect. Maybe it's the reason why he didn't return. Maybe he was full of shame.”

"Really? How could that be possible!"

Gossips rang out from the crowd.

Annoyed by the gossips, Darren decided to teach them a lesson by demonstrating what he could doto the servant who made impertinent remarks about him. Using his mind, he forced the servant tokneel down in front of him. The servant felt as if a mountain was placed on his back.

He couldn't figure out what was going on with his body until Darren left and the overwhelmingpressure was also lifted from his back. He kept kowtowing while begging for his life, "Sir, pleaseforgive me! Everything I said was wrong! I know that I should have never doubted you!"

What happened surprised everyone present. They were confused and thought the servant had gonecrazy.

Just as Darren was about to enter his former residence, a voice dripping with sarcasm came from hisback.

"Oh! Look at that! Our talent has returned!"

Turning around, Darren saw Blake, the so-called genius who he defeated with his very own hands."Fuck off!" Darren spit out the curse from between his teeth. In fact, he wanted to completely ignorehim.

"Isn't that fascinating! Do you think I would be afraid of you just because you're still reeking witharrogance? Everybody knows that you have become nothing but a wreck after you went into thellmen Sect. Take that arrogance off your face. I am not buying it," Blake said scornfully.

Irritated by his words, Darren was on the verge of breaking out when suddenly several figures cameover to cheer.

"Mr. Nicholas is back! It is said that after he was defeated by Mr. Darren, he joined another sect. Andnow, he has been inducted to be an inner disciple of that sect!" someone complimented.

"Really? Only a martial artist at the ninth stage of Primary Realm is qualified to be an inner disciple.Does this mean it only took a few months for Nicholas to improve his strength by a whole stage?”another servant said with utter disbelief.

"Of course. Mr. Nicholas, though he was not as good as Mr. Darren half a year ago, had a talent atlevel seven of the Yellow Degree,” that servant explained.

The moment Nicholas walked in, he immediately caught a glimpse of Darren

He put on a fake smile and walked towards him, saying, "How are you doing, Darren? You're just intime. I was just starting to miss you."

Knowing that what he said dripped with false sentiments, Darren replied without any expression onhis face, "Surely. If I had been knocked off by anyone with a single move, I would also miss him verymuch."

"You!" Nicholas was not a person who was easily angered, but at this moment, his face turned hotred with rage. Then he shouted at him, "I heard that you had become a wreck when you joined thellmen Sect. Do you dare fight me now?"

Facing Nicholas’ challenge, Darren just shook his head and said calmly, "You? Who do you think youare? Do you really think that you stand a chance against me?"

Upon finishing his words, Darren walked straight towards his residence.

"Bro, do you want me to kick his arrogant ass?" said a young man standing beside Nicholas. Hedidn't like Darren's arrogant behavior.

But Nicholas stopped him and sneered, "That wouldn't be necessary! If he dares to attend theelection tomorrow, I'll beat him to his knees until he begs for mercy!"
