Chapter 2028 The Strength Of Grade-eight Warriors (Part One)

Darren used his god's sense to locate those who were trying to escape.

He went after them, his figure flashing everywhere at once, as though he had multiplied into countless copies of himself.

In fact, these were just shadows formed in the vision of others, because of his incredible speed. Darren was moving so swiftly that no one could keep track of him.

"Sect leader, respectfully, we will be in a lot of trouble if we don't bribe them," said the Chief Elder helplessly.
