The tavern was empty. The owner of the tavern was scared to death so he asked a waiter to stand guard.
"Waiter, come here," Darren called out.
The waiter came over, trembling with fear. He looked at Darren's face, feeling more frightened by the second. He knew what Darren was capable of.
"Sir, I am at your disposal!"
"Why are you so afraid? Bring me wine! Bring me the most expensive wine that you have!"
"Yes, sir! Please wait a moment!"
The waiter rushed to get the wine.
Several pots of good wine were served to Darren.
"Sir, you can drink as much as you want. I just need to go home. My parents are very old and they need me. Please let me go back to them."
After the waiter served the wine, he knelt on the ground, crying.
"I won't kill you. Why would you think that?" Darren was aghast.
"Sir, I know that you are a righteous person. You will let me live. But if the Governor of the Blue Cloud City comes, he will kill a lot of people. I'll surely die. Please let me go home and hide!" The waiter cried even more.
"You can leave now." Darren didn't want the waiter to be afraid any longer.
"Thank you, sir. Thank you so much." The waiter kowtowed and rushed to get home.
There was no one else in the empty tavern. Darren drank alone. It had been six hours, but no one else came.
After waiting for another half hour, Darren got up and walked out.
The streets were empty, but he could see people peering out of the pavilions, waiting to see what would happen.
Darren didn't know why the Governor of the Blue Cloud City didn't come. He didn't want to waste time anymore. He took out his sword and waved around. He left a note on the ground: "The man who killed a bug is Darren." Then, he walked away.
The people watching him were in an uproar.
"He killed the son of the Blue Cloud City's Governor and dared to leave in such a manner! How terrifying!"
"If it were anyone else, the Blue Cloud City's Governor would have pounced on him like a mad dog! He might be afraid of Darren!"
"Wow, he's really awesome. No wonder he i
guards were a little surprised.
"Young Master, are you talking about the Shao brothers who have been suppressed for eight hundred years?"
"That's right." Felix smirked. "When the two brothers work together, they can resist a holy emperor's attack. Darren won't know what hit him!"
"B-b-but...Young Master! The two brothers are so vicious! How will you make them work for you?"
"No more questions. Just consider it done. In just a few weeks, I will make Darren pay with his own blood!" With one final bow to his father, Felix turned around and left.
"Felix, it's all up to you now." Anderson Mu hoped for revenge. He was glad he had his other son around to carry out the plans.
At the Governor's Office of the Holy City
Outside the hall, Garth and some of the warriors stood waiting.
A figure appeared in front of them.
"Ha!" Laughing heartily, Garth took a few steps forward. "Darren, you are finally back. Please come in."
"Welcome, Mr. Chu!" The warriors all bowed to him.
Darren was stunned. 'Isn't this a little bit too much?' he thought.
"Governor," Darren greeted, bowing politely.
"Come on in. Say... I heard that you had killed the son of Anderson. Is that true?" Garth asked.
"Indeed. It is true," Darren admitted.
"Great!" To Darren's surprise, Garth was laughing. He had expected him to worry but rather, he seemed quite overjoyed.
