Talented Martial Hero
Chapter 77 Indignation

Before long, Darren and Elsa arrived at the foot of limen Sect.

They talked about Mathew the whole journey. "Was the body of Mr. Xiao repressed on anuninhabited island in Raksa Sea?" Darren asked.

Elsa gloomily nodded, "While he was badly injured, three servants sneaked up on him from behindand grabbed his treasure. Then they discarded his body in a dangerous part of an uninhabitedisland.

The most unforgivable thing about it was that Mr. Xiao had previously saved their lives, but theywent ahead and bit the hands that fed them, all for their own selfish interest!"

Elsa angrily recounted.

"Who are the three traitors?" Darren demanded, feeling indignant over what happened to Mathew."I remember he mentioned that their leader was called Jesse Li. The three of them were all at theninth stage of the Mysterious Realm. With the treasure they stole, they would be able to reach thesupreme stage of the Wonder Realm, which would give them the power to live for over tenthousand years. If my speculation is right, they're probably still alive,” Elsa explained

The Wonder Realm had unique divisions different from those of the Mysterious Realm. It was madeup of five stages: the primary stage, the middle stage, the advanced stage, the premium stage andthe supreme stage.

Darren furrowed his brows. "But why was his avatar left at the Black Cliff of Sword Intent to guardhis master's heritage?" he asked, puzzled.

"According to Mr. Xiao, he didn't die right away after being abandoned and his master found himafterwards. However, his master's avatar wasn't able to enter the Devil Den, so he took three strandsof Mr. Xiao's soul to keep him alive. In fact, the avatar at the Black Cliff of Sword Intent was formedby one of the three strands. Thus, if we retrieve Mr. Xiao's body, his master would be powerfulenough to bring him back to life," Elsa explained.

"I see." Darren paused to think. "But how could we enter the Devil Den if even Mr. Xiao's masterwasn't able to enter?” he pondered out loud.

"Well, Mr. Xiao did say that his master wasn't from our continent and his avatar apparently ran intosome restrictions here. So I guess that's why he couldn't enter the Devil Den. I don't think we'dencounter any problems like that. As long as we come close to the Wonder Realm, we can get Mr.Xiao's body back," Elsa explained.

"If that's so, then it can be done. When my power reaches there, I will help him,” Darren declared."Well, Elsa, let's go back to Sword Mountain first. Elder Thomas hasn't seen you for quite a longtime. He must be worried about you," he added.

"Hmph! He will never care about me." Elsa was angry at her father. She wondered how he wouldreact if she informed him about her talents and power once she got home. “Will he care? Will he beproud?’ she thought. The whole credit would probably go to Darren. His talents and power wereunarguably more terrific. 'How would father react to Darren, then?" Elsa pondered.

Soon after Darren and Elsa set out, they heard an agonizing scream coming from the hillside, "Ah!Please, no!"

Elsa's face immediately turned sullen. "Is that Laman? Darren, let's go!" she hissed as she thunderedtowards the direction of the voice.

Darren had intended to just ignore it because bullying routinely happened on a regular basis inlimen Sect. It was beyond his control. But Elsa decided to intervene and he had no choice but tofollow because this was guaranteed to not end well.

As they approached the hillside, Darren clearly saw that two disciples of the School of Sword Skillwere surrounded and were being assaulted by dozens of disciples of the School of Arrow Skill.One of the disciples of the School of Sword Skill cried out for mercy as he rolled on the ground,"Brothers, it's our fault. Please don't beat us!"

"How dare a scum from the School of Sword Skill call us 'brothers'?" a disciple of the School ofArrow Skill barked. "Beat them up!" The rest of the disciples continued to violently assault the two."Stop it!" Elsa cried in a high-pitched voice. Wearing a cold, grim expression on her face, she walkedover to them one step at a time.

"Huh? Who is this meddlesome fool?" The disciples of the School of Arrow Skill turned and looked,"Oh it's you, Elsa. We thought you were gone. What a surprise that you come back!" one of themsaid as they all snickered.

Though resentful, Elsa didn't bother to come up with a response because she had made up hermind that she was going to make them pay. She addressed the two disciples of the School of SwordSkill, "Laman and Harish, where are your backbone? How can you even ask for mercy from thesebeasts?"

For a while, Laman Lin was stunned when he saw Elsa. A few moments later, he burst into anagitated laughter, tears filling his eyes. "Backbone? If you've seen how they brutally battered ourjuniors that they captured at Arrow Mountain, you'll probably lose all your moral fiber too. Youshould just leave now. Elder Thomas will avenge us when he comes back.”

Laman Lin and Harish Zhang weren't able to bear the pain from their wounds and bruises anymore,and soon they lost consciousness. "I don't know what the hell is going on here, but all of you willpay for this! Right here and now!" Elsa yelled, seething with anger at the disciples of the School ofArrow Skill.

The disciples broke out into a chorus of chortles and cackles. "Just you, my sweet

little thing? Your fancy martial arts are nothing but a nice massage for us,” one disciple jeered at her.Then he suddenly spotted Darren. "Geez, is that brat Darren?”

"It is him. I heard he had a narrow escape from the Barren Wasteland and eloped with Elsa. Foolingaround for such a long time, I'm guessing he's already gotten the bitch knocked up, ha-ha!" asecond disciple insinuated.

"Aw, what a pity. I also want to have a baby with the pretty little thing,” another disciple said as heleered at Elsa.

Although they were only at the second stage of the Spirit Realm, they still viewed Darren as crapand Elsa as weak being just at the Primary Realm. Both were sacrificial lambs for them.

They were preoccupied with mocking and sneering when suddenly, a streak of light flashed beforetheir eyes, a streak of light that could only come from a sword.

One of them was instantly beheaded.

It was Elsa, not Darren, who dealt the blow. Elsa's beautiful face was seething with anger. "You damnbeasts. All of you are bound for hell!"

"Ah!"

"How did this happen?"

"What a horrifying power!”

"That is awful!"

They let out terrified cries. Some of them collapsed in terror, not having the guts to flee for theirlegs just gave out.

"How did you become so powerful? The sect will never let you off for killing in llmen Sect!" adisciple exclaimed as he trembled in fear.

"I just killed some beasts. What can the sect do to me?" Elsa nonchalantly rebutted. She gave thesword another swing and several more disciples were struck dead.

She was about to kill the last disciple, when Darren called out, "Please keep him alive for the timebeing."

Sullen-faced, he walked towards Elsa and said, "We could question him so we could figure out whois responsible for this.”

Elsa calmed down then.

"Tell me who instigated you to do this!" Darren bellowed. Blood dripped out from the ears of theparalyzed disciple.

"Ah!" he cried out in pain. The disciple rolled on the ground and obscurely disclosed, "It was Jerome.While Elder Thomas and Cody went out to search for Elsa, he ordered us to provoke the disciples ofthe School of Sword Skill and beat them up. I was just following orders, please spare me!"

"So it was Jerome, as I expected,” Darren sighed exasperatedly. "He must have been backed bysomeone powerful, or else he wouldn't have had the audacity to send out orders to beat disciples ofthe School of Sword Skill so publicly.” He turned to Elsa with a frown.

"Jerome again. I must kill him. I will definitely kill him,” Elsa resentfully growled, and the hatredinside her had mounted exceedingly high.

Darren gently placed his hand on Elsa's shoulder as he tried to calm her back down. "We shouldprobably head back to Sword Mountain to check on the situation. This is a pretty unusualcircumstance, so we'd better get to the bottom of this first and foremost.” He then gave her a sadbut reassuring smile.

Hearing that they were about to leave, the disciple knelt on the ground and kowtowed towardsthem and murmured, "You assholes... Jerome will kill you..."

There was a whistling sound and then a flashing light.

The disciples head fell to the ground as his body followed.

"Even in your sorry state you still said wicked words. You deserve something worse than death.”Darren buckled on his sword and quickly headed for Sword Mountain together with Elsa.
