Chapter 2090 A Talent Test (Part One)

Now that they had put a lot of distance between themselves and the imperial city, Darren and the others were in no hurry to go back. After exiting the transmission array, they traveled to the reception point of the upper-rate sect. They were warmly welcomed and presented tea and snacks, so they decided to seize the opportunity and get some rest.

"Alex, what do you think the higher-ups of the royal family are going to do next?"

the old man asked Darren. He had an uneasy feeling in the pit of his stomach for days.

Darren picked up his teacup and pondered the question. Then, he replied, "Many members from the royal family died in the ruins, but the imperial city is peaceful. The ones who seem to be stirring up trouble are the Yan Clan and the other noble clans. I think the emperor wants this to happen. Otherwise, he would've temporarily covered the casualties up to avoid any more chaos."

The old man's eyes lit up as a small smile crossed his face. Darren's thoughts coincided with his.

"You are right, boy. I think there will be more turmoil in the Eastern Imperial Region

f you are alone, you put yourself in danger. If you get into trouble, we might not be able to reach you in time."

The old man's worry was reasonable. He knew that the members of the Yan Clan had a target on Darren's back.

"I'll be fine. They don't know my real strength. It's not that easy for them to hurt me."

Only Kenneth and his family members knew Darren's real strength. There wasn't anyone else who had an inkling that he was as strong as a warrior with a grade-eight Fate Character and nine metal meridians.

"Alex, I'll go with you!" Kenneth said in a hurry.

"No. If you go with me, we will stick out more. I can deal with my enemies on my own. But I'm afraid my sect will need the protection from the Red Demon Clan in the future."

"No problem. You are strong enough to handle the people from a middle-rate sect. When you're back, you can move your sect onto our land. I'll choose a good place for you," Apollo replied.

"Thank you, sir."

"Not to mention it. You helped Kenneth so much. I don't know how to repay you for your kindness." Apollo smiled at Darren.
