Chapter 78 Take Revenge


    Darren and Elsa took the two unconscious disciples of School of Sword Skill back to the Sword


    Mountain immediately.


    "Who''s there?" A shaking voice reached their ears the second Darren and Elsa stepped into the lobby.


    They turned to the direction of the voice.


    Most disciples of the School of Sword Skill were inside. When the disciple who had spoken saw their


    faces, his stance rxed and his mind felt at ease.


    "You''re finally back, Elsa!" the one who outranked the rest gushed, crossing the lobby in long strides to


    get closer to them but not before giving his orders to the other disciples. "Get a message to Elder


    Thomas and Cody and tell them that Elsa hase back."


    Without wasting another second, several disciples ran out to fill Thomas and Cody in on Elsa''s return


    with some secret skill.


    "Rick, those guys from the School of Arrow Skill bullied ourpanions. Why don''t you inform my


    father and Cody and ask them to do something about it?" Elsa asked with furrowed eyebrows,


    confused.


    Rick let out a wryugh and replied, "Elsa, you know we have been through this because of you. After


    finding out that Elder Thomas was not around, those disciples from the School of Arrow Skill took that


    chance and often waited at the foot to attack us. We have experienced all sorts of difficulties. We have


    been beaten up, while some of us have been taken to Arrow Mountain and tortured.


    I informed Elder Thomas of this several times, but even though he was angry about it, he didn''te


    back because he wanted to get you back at all costs."


    The rest of the disciples listening to their conversation sighed, looking frustrated.


    "Now that you''re back, everything will be fine. Once Elder Thomases back, he will give justice to


    what happened to us. He will avenge us," Rick said, his eyes filled with desire to get back at his


    enemies.


    With all seriousness, Darren stood up and said, "I think this matter is moreplicated than you have


    imagined. The people of the School of Arrow Skill dare to ignore the rules and bully us in public. That''s


    not a school''s typical behavior. There must be some reason behind this."


    "Shut up!" Rick shouted at Darren as his hands balled into fists.


    Everyone present in the room didn''t notice Darren until he spoke. They cast unkind nces at him.


    "Who the hell do you think you are?" Rick thundered, narrowing his eyes at Darren. "How dare you


    interrupt us?"


    The people of the School of Sword Skill already heard rumors about Darren and Elsa. It was said that


    Darren hooked up with Elsa in the woods and the two eloped.


    They didn''t believe these rumors because they didn''t think Elsa would actually be attracted to a loser


    like Darren.


    "Watch your tone, Rick. You should show Darren some respect,"


    Elsa demanded coldly before Darren could say a word.


    "Elsa, how could you...? I can''t believe you just said that," Rick uttered acidly, his eyes filled with cold


    anger. He was mad about Elsa defending Darren, but he couldn''t afford to say anything else to


    displease her. After all, her father was Elder Thomas. He didn''t want to get on his wrong side. As he


    sent Darren an icy re, he thought, ''I don''t get it. Why would Elsa speak up for this loser? Did she


    really meet Darren in the woods just like what the rumors said?''


    Other disciples didn''t like Elsa''s response either. They got angry and felt a little betrayed at how she


    defended Darren against them, as though they were the ones at fault. It was unfair.


    "Humph! He is just a nobody. I don''t know why you''re standing up for him. Did he cast a spell on you or


    something?" a strong young man grumbled.


    "Ian, watch your tone too. Be nice to Darren," Elsa said again, frowning at the man.


    "Be nice to him? No way! If you weren''t Elder Thomas''s daughter, I wouldn''t spare you a look. As the


    old saying goes, ''Birds of the same feather flock together''. No wonder you two losers got together," Ian


    retorted.


    "Have you lost your mind, Ian? How could you insult Elsa this way? You''ve gone too far," Rick berated


    as his face darkened. ''Ian is such an outspoken guy. Even if that''s what he thought, he shouldn''t have


    said it out loud, '' he thought, knowing the consequences of such a daring action.


    "Did I say anything wrong, Rick?" the bulky youth snapped with a defiant look on his face.


    SMACK!


    The sound reverberated through the whole ce. Ian got pped hard. His hand flew to his cheek as


    his eyesnded on the person who pped him.


    "You!" He pointed at Elsa, eyes shing dangerously and intending to fight back.


    But before he could make a move, he was rendered immobile by a terrifying auraing from Elsa.


    His mouth opened in horror.


    Gaping at Elsa like a trapped animal, he swallowed his saliva and mumbled, "I-I am sorry, Elsa."


    Elsa withdrew her sword intent. Even though she could kill him, she had no intention of doing so in


    respect to the years they spent cultivating together. She thought teaching him a lesson like this would


    suffice, and the p was not cutting it short either.


    Upon seeing this, the rest exchanged confused nces. They had no idea why Ian suddenly changed


    his attitude and apologized. ''Perhaps he realized that he was being too rude to Elsa and Darren, '' they


    thought as they looked at Ian''s slumped shoulders. It didn''t matter what really happened, though,


    because they forgot about the incident soon enough.


    "Look, the people of the School of Arrow Skill have gone too far this time. We should make them pay


    for what they have done to us." Elsa looked at the disciples around her and announced, "If you meet


    any disciples of the School of Arrow Skill at the foot of the mountain, show them no mercy and beat


    them up."


    Her voice wasthered with murderous intent.


    There was a moment of silence. Then, after a while, Rick spoke up.


    "Elsa, you''re still too naive. Those guys of the School of Arrow Skill take orders from Jerome, and you


    know what? If we take actions, we run the risk of being caught by him. If that happens, all our lives will


    be in danger," he said,ying all the facts.


    Darren couldn''t help but sneer at him. "So, is this the reason you''re hiding here like a coward? But


    if you try to resist. In a way, hiding is your way to survive. Well, I have nothing to do with you, but I will


    go ahead and avenge you for Elsa''s sake."


    He and Elsa smiled at each other before turning around and walking towards the door.


    "Darren, this bastard, he will get Elsa killed one way or another. He is such a pain in the ass. How I


    wanted to end his life with one punch... if only it were that easy!" Rick cursed, his face turning red with


    anger. He wished that Darren would meet the disciples of the School of Arrow Skills and get killed. But


    Elsa had left with Darren and he didn''t want Elsa to be in danger.


    "What should we do, Rick? If anything happens to Elsa, Elder Thomas will me us for not stopping


    her," one of the disciples asked worriedly.


    "This is Darren''s fault. We have such rotten luck. Why do we have to get involved with that idiot?"


    another one followed.


    Rick knitted his eyebrows and huffed, "Then why are you still standing here? Are you just going to


    stand by and watch Elsa get hit? Go follow them! But remember: all we need to do is keep Elsa safe.


    We could care less about that loser. If he dies, just leave him. You can even stab him yourself if you


    want. I won''t punish you for that. Do you understand?"


    A sinister smile crossed the disciples'' faces. "Copy that, Rick!" And with that, Rick led a dozen men out


    of the lobby.


    ...


    Darren and Elsa moved so fast that they reached the foot of Sword Mountain close to the square in


    less than a minute.


    "It seems we''ve gotpany. Come on, guys. Let''s kick their asses."


    Several disciples of the School of Arrow Skill dashed forward from the shadows and closed in on


    Darren and Elsa.


    "What did you just say?" Darren asked with a mocking smile.


    "Are you deaf? I said we will beat you up, you idiots of the School of Sword Skill!" the one in charge


    replied aggressively.


    On their way back to Ilmen Sect, Darren had taught the Aura-concealing Skill to Elsa. Since the two


    had hidden their real strength, the disciples of the School of Arrow Skill thought their cultivation base


    was low. Hence, they were totally underestimated. Darren could see that the disciples of their


    Content is ? by N?velDrama.Org.


    opponents thought this was almost too easy.


    "Go get them!" the one in charge of the group screeched. "And I don''t mind if you take advantage of


    that hot girl. You can treat her as a--"


    BANG!


    Before he could finish his sentence, a fistnded on his face so fast that it took him a few seconds to


    realize what happened. He was thrown in the air as the punch he received started sinking in.


    BANG! BANG! BANG!


    The rest of the group got thrown in the air as well like little pieces of garbage. Elsa could hear their


    bones breaking along with a series of painful groans.


    "Darren, why didn''t you leave one for me? I wanted to deal with them," Elsa said, smiling.


    "I can''t let ady resort to using force and I don''t want your clothes to get dirty. So I took care of them


    for you," Darren replied with a smile of his own.


    He then grabbed Elsa''s hand and held it tightly. "Let''s get going. There''s nothing interesting here


    anymore."


    Elsa didn''t see this happening. As she felt the warmth from his hand, her heart raced and it felt like her


    rib cage might break. Despite that, she pretended to look calm.


    She snorted to hide the smile in the corners of her mouth. With the most grace and eloquence she


    could muster, she followed Darren.


    Shortly after they left the scene, Rick came to the foot of the mountain together with the rest of his


    followers. They moved cautiously, fearing the attack of their enemies.


    "Stop!" Rick eximed urgently, raising his hand. The rest of the disciples paused in their tracks, eyes


    wide with shock.


    They found the disciples of the School of Arrow Skill lying on the ground, moaning in pain.


    "I know him!" Rick said, recognizing the man closest to him. "His name is Stefan Liu of the School of


    Arrow Skill. He is at the fifth stage of the Spirit Realm! What happened here? Who did this to him?"


    Rick asked as his eyes took in Stefan''s battered figure with a frown.


    He had a wild guess, but he had a hard time believing it. After all, if his guess was correct, that would


    mean Darren was so much stronger than him and everyone else in the groupbined.
