Disappointed, Darren and his companions had no choice but to turn and leave.
"Sirs,"
the guard behind them shouted.
"What is it?" Weber turned and asked expectantly. A small part of him hoped that there would be a turn of events.
"There is another transmission array, but it only sends people into the region. I heard about it from others. Why don't you try your luck? Perhaps I'm mistaken, and people are allowed to leave as well?" the guard suggested.
"Boy, do you know why it will only send people in, not out?" Weber frowned and questioned.
"It is rumored that geniuses from other regions will come. What is astonishing is that they have cultivated for less than ten thousand years! However, many of them are disciples of powerful figures," the guard's eyes widened with excitement as he explained.
"Are you sure? You are only a guard watching the transmission array. How do you know so much about this?" Lindsay tilted her head and quizzed the guard.
"Miss, it seems that the whole region knows about it." The words had barely left his mouth when the guard realized his mistake and winced. He was worried that these people would beat him again.
"Why are they headed here?"
"Their destination is that mysterious mountain. This is all I know."
"Take this. It's a reward."
Although Darren had no idea what the geniuses from the other regions were going to do, the information the guard provided was still useful. Therefore, Darren rewarded him with a killing stone that was worth ten thousand points.
"Thank you, sir." A brilliant smile lit up the guard's face as he nodded and bowed.
Darren and the others left for the city to gather more information. After piecing everything together, they were able to understand the situation.
Senior leaders of the Tussle Region had invited these geniuses.
This confused Darren and his companions.
Darren had seen the mountain previously. Ordinary people just couldn't get close to it. Only masters at the Superior God Realm had the chance to go in and have a look. Why did the region invite young cultivators to the mountain?
"Where is Darren?"
Four hours later, a person from the Tussle Holy House arrived and asked for Darren.
"Who are you? Why are you searching for him?" Darren asked calmly.
"Three confidential letters have arrived for him. I need to transfer these to him personally. Call him, or you'll be sorry."
Surprisingly enough, the person was simply a messenger.
When he heard that three confidential letters had come for him, Darren's curiosity was piqued. Who would send him letters? How did the messenger know where to find him?
erious must have happened. But why are these big figures looking for you?"
Weber knew how famous these three people were.
"I don't know. We'll need to go there and find out."
"Patriarch Darren, please reconsider. This trip is bound to be dangerous." As there was no outsider present, Gatlin addressed Darren as patriarch.
To Gatlin, Darren represented the entire Chu Clan. If anything happened to him, the throne of the Chu Clan would be lost forever.
"I have no choice. Akbar is my buddy, and he has requested my assistance. I have to ensure that he is all right."
As Darren didn't have a close relationship with Lord Starry Sword or Finley's real body, it would not be strange if he refused their invitation. However, he would never decline Akbar's request.
What was more, he was curious to learn why so many young talents had gone there.
"Yes, we have to go and investigate," Finley agreed. After all, his real body had asked Darren to bring him there.
"Darren, I don't want to..." Weber enjoyed adventures, but he loved his life more. So, this time he wanted to back out.
But before he could finish, he suddenly shivered, and his fat body trembled.
"Fuck!" He looked reluctant.
"What's wrong?" Darren glanced at him.
"The old dog has sent me a message as well. He has asked me to travel to the Archean mountain right away," Weber explained.
"Ha-ha, you can't escape this time, Weber," Finley laughed.
"Well, let's all go then. If something did happen, I hope it would end quickly so that we can leave the Tussle Region as soon as possible," Darren remarked.
"Okay, let's go!"
"Alas." Gatlin didn't dare to try and stop Darren.
Darren and his companions flew out, heading for the mysterious Archean mountain.
