Talented Martial Hero
Chapter 938 Anthony Was Cheated

The holy emperor who cultivated three conflicting martial arts skills had left behind a river of blood!Darren could hardly imagine how much holy emperor's power the blood river contained.

The river's deep red waves crashed against each other.

The vast blood river was enormous, about a kilometer wide in width and stretched farther than theeye could see.

"Wow! I bet the pressure will tear me apart if I move closer.” Chaz took a few steps forward andstopped when he felt the river's immense power.

Anthony also tried to move closer to it. He also felt the great shock and dared not go any further."It's difficult to go across the blood river,” Anthony said, shaking his head.

Darren stepped forward. "Don't forget, we have the Blood Suppressing Bead. It should protect usfrom the power of the blood river.”

"Oh, that's right.

Countless men have died fighting for the beads. Obviously, they knew how important they are,”answered Anthony.

"Let me try." Darren took out the Blood Suppressing Bead and walked slowly towards the bloodriver.

Darren was immediately assaulted by the river's magic and he felt his body begin to tear. The BloodSuppressing Bead in his hand glowed and released a red light that enveloped him, greatly reducingthe river's power on him.

Just as Darren was about to step into the blood river, the cultivators from the other cities appearedbehind him.

"Why do you have the Blood Suppressing Bead?"

Their eyes immediately fell on the magical object in Darren's hand. 'Only three Blood SuppressingBeads flew out from the tomb. They are all with us. How did he get one?" they thought tothemselves.

"It's none of your business!" Chaz said, glaring at them.

"You arrogant bastard! Who do you think you are? I'm going to kick your ass!"

A strong warrior flew over to Chaz and was about to strike him when Anthony stepped in front ofChaz.

"How dare you?!" Anthony exclaimed, countering the warrior's attack.

The man flew backwards with Anthony's blow. He scampered away like a kicked dog.

"You're strong, no doubt about it. But, can you beat all of us if we take you on together?"

"No, I can't,” said Anthony flatly.

"Ah, then be smart. If you make one wrong move, we won't hesitate to kill you."

Anthony's eyes flashed coldly. "You may be able to succeed, but I am sure that I will be able to killmost of you before I die.”

Anthony's blood boiled with his anger. He crossed his arms and looked at each man's face.

Chills ran down the men's backs. They didn't dare act rashly after hearing Anthony's warning. Theyknew very well what he was capable of doing and did not want to risk their lives.

"I-i-it's... a joke! Yes, just a joke! It was lucky we were able to enter the holy emperor's tombtogether. Ha! Why don't we help each other out from now on?"

A bearded man walked up to Anthony and held out his hand for Anthony to shake.

"Yeah! We don't have to fight like this!" someone echoed.

Anthony rolled his eyes and said nothing. The bearded man, undeterred, continued, "I'm sorry forwhat we've done to you. I apologize on behalf of everyone else!

Please, shake my hand and let's make peace!”

The bearded man was being awfully polite. If Anthony didn't shake his hand, it would seem like hewas being too arrogant.

He let out an exasperated sigh and took the man's hand. As soon as he did, pain shot up his arm.His body suddenly felt like it was being pierced by thousands of tiny needles and he was paralyzed."Ha! You don't know my tricks? You have been poisoned by my Suppressing Needle. Let's see howmuch strength you can muster now! Humph!*

The bearded man's jolly disposition faded away and was replaced by a vicious sneer.

"Bastard!" Anthony cursed.

"Fuck off!" The bearded man raised his hand and slapped Antony's chest. Anthony was lifted up intothe air and thrown backwards. He hit a rock and lay on the ground, as stiff as a board.

Anthony could not do anything to defend himself.

Darren, who was still standing by the river, was infuriated. He couldn't believe these people werecapable of doing such a dirty trick.

Whoosh!

Darren flew over and picked Anthony up.

"Do you want me to fight you to the death?" Darren shouted coldly.

"Ha! You and what army?" someone said disdainfully.

Darren's face grew dark. "We have been very patient with you. Why are you treating us like this?""Kid, I'm just sick of you. Does that answer your question?"

one man shouted. The rest of the warriors laughed. They thought themselves to be more powerfulthan Darren and Anthony and did not have a single shred of respect for either man.

"Ah, your reason is outstanding! Since I'm sick of you too, that means I have the right to kill you.Right?" Darren said coldly.

"You're dead, kid! Kill him! Didn't the Tiger Cat say that we should fight with him at the inheritancearea? If he dies here, we'll take all the treasure for ourselves!"

"Let's all kill him together! He won't stand a chance!”

"Right! Let's go!"

The crowd swarmed towards Darren and his companions.

"Humans are so despicable and shameless. It's embarrassing.”

The Tiger Cat had been silently watching them.

"I told them to target that boy because I wanted to see the extent of his power. I did not expectthey'd actually want to kill him!" murmured the Tiger Cat, visibly disgusted.

He thought that Darren was a rare talent and had infinite potential. He thought that gettingroughed up a little would toughen him up, but he did not think that the men would be so brash asto want to end his life.

But regardless of what was happening, the Tiger Cat decided he would not help Darren. If he couldnot defeat the other warriors, it simply meant he was not strong enough and he wasn't the greattalent that the Tiger Cat thought he was after all. This was his fate!

"May luck be on your side, boy. I now have other things to occupy my mind," the Tiger Cat huffed.Just like that, the Tiger Cat became indifferent to Darren's struggle. Even if the boy perished, Haileywould still be there to take his master's inheritance.

Hailey might not be as potential as Darren, but she did practice Primitive Masculine and PrimitiveFeminine Cultivation, which was one of the three conflicting martial arts skills his master hadpracticed. This was what made the Tiger Cat choose Hailey over Darren in the first place.

At the blood river

"Chaz, Laura, follow me! Run!"

Darren decided to cross the blood river. Once he assimilated the holy emperor's power in the river,the men would be doomed.

Crash!

The waves of the blood river lapped wildly against each other as they fled towards the river.
