Chapter 822 Telling The Truth

Darren looked at the dumbfounded monkey and thought the latter was pitiful.

"Try to hold on for some time. I will find an opportunity to save you as soon as possible," Darren told the monkey.

"I can hold on for at most three months," the monkey stated. The temperature of the fire was so high that even the monkey couldn't survive for a long time.

"Okay. I will see what I can do." Darren nodded and turned, intending to leave.

"Wait!" The monkey's pitiful voice forced Darren to stop.

"I'm a mutated hair of Barnes the Holy." The monkey revealed his true identity.

At this moment, he felt sour in his heart, and scenes of his struggle to survive filled his mind.

"A hair?" Darren nearly shouted.

'A hair of Barnes the Holy is so powerful?' Darren wondered as he stared at the monkey in disbelief. No matter how much he tried to rationalize, Darren just couldn't believe what he had just heard.

"This is odd. Why do I feel better after telling you the truth?" Although he had earlier felt a pang of sorrow, the monkey was now thrilled. He continued to say, "I want to tell you everything about me. Would you like to hear my story?"

"Of course, I do." Darren nodded.

The monkey closed his eyes as he tried to figure out where to start.

"Let's start from the day that I was born.

A long time ago, Barnes the Holy, and the Inner Fiend fought each other over control of the Golden Indestructible Body. During this fierce battle, they almost tore apart their souls.

One day, the Inner Fiend succeeded in gaining control of the Golden Indestructible Body after driving Barnes the Holy out of it."

"Wait a moment!" Darren's heart skipped a beat, and he couldn't help but interrupt the monkey.

"What's wrong?" The monkey looked at Darren with confusion.

"Are you sure that it was the Inner Fiend that expelled Barnes the Holy from the Golden Indestructible Body? I heard that Barnes the Holy removed the Inner Fiend from his body. I have seen the Inner Fiend, so that must be true!" Darren said anxiously.

"What did the Inner Fiend you saw look like?" The monkey's expression was calm as if he was not worried about what Darren had just said.

"His body was covered in black hair, and he acted like a crazy monkey..." Darren described all the characteristics of the Inner Fiend to the monkey.

"All right. I am sure that he is Barnes the Holy," the monkey said with confidence. The monkey was so calm that Darren felt dis

me. If he agrees, I will find a space and live a peaceful life," the monkey replied.

Darren's heart ached when he heard the reason why the monkey was in search of the Inner Fiend.

"Do you think he will let you go?" Darren asked with a bitter smile.

"What do you think?" The monkey's eyes reflected the confusion he felt. He longed for an answer, and hopefully, a positive one.

"Of course, not." Darren answered firmly.

"Ha-ha, I knew it, and I understand. He won't let me go," the monkey said as he laughed in despair.

"I don't understand. Why should you beg him for a glimmer of a chance to live? Since he won't allow you to live, why not kill him instead?" Darren said with a cold expression.

"You are too naive. The Inner Fiend's power is unimaginable. No one in the world can kill him." The monkey thought Darren was daydreaming.

"What about Barnes the Holy? If Barnes the Holy regains his power, won't he be able to kill the Inner Fiend?"

Darren's words helped the monkey see a new possibility.

"Now, I know where Barnes the Holy is. If I can rescue him, I believe he will find a way to find the Inner Fiend and kill him. Am I right?"

Darren realized that the monkey he saw in the Devil Den was not the Inner Fiend, but Barnes the Holy!

"What you suggest makes sense. But how will we break the suppression power on Barnes the Holy? It will be no less challenging than killing the Inner Fiend. Besides, I'm afraid that when Barnes the Holy regains his strength, he will want to kill me, as well."

"But why would Barnes the Holy want to kill you? There is no reason," Darren said with furrowed brows.
