Chapter 160 The Complicated Things (Part Two)


    But Belle''s question made his own questions bubble to the surface of his mind once again. ''If Belle''s


    mother is not my mother, then who is my real mother? Where could she be now?'' While he was in the


    Holy Lord Diana''s ce, his mind became rather absent during thetter part of their conversation.


    N?velDrama.Org holds ? this.


    After he heard the shocking truth from Diana, he found himself wondering about Belle''s true identity.


    But more than that, he felt so anxious to find out about his own family history that he could barely listen


    to anything that Diana was telling him.


    Now, as he was watching Belle, he began to think about what his next steps should be. ''It looks like I


    need to go back to the Chu n, '' he thought to himself. The Chu n was where he was raised.


    Therefore, he thought that some of the people there must know the answers to his many burning


    questions. He became restless and desperate to know who he really was.


    "Darren, why didn''t youe here with your wife? I really wanted to see her. Colin told me that she is


    really good looking. Is that true?" Belle asked earnestly, interrupting Darren''s train of thought. Darren''s


    cheeks became flushed. He had no idea how to answer her. Even though he was a grown-up man by


    all means, he still found it hard to free himself from being shy when it came to the subject of love and


    affection.


    "I will bring her next time. But first things first. I should visit Elder Xenia while I am here. Could you


    show me to her pce?" Darren said.


    Belle giggled, revealing the deep cute dimples on her cheeks, as she saw Darren''s embarrassed face.


    "Darren, why is your face so red? Are you embarrassed?" she taunted.


    "Nonsense!" he eximed, his face turning even redder.


    Belle then led her brother to see her master. She kept making fun of her brother all the way though.


    Just as Darren tried toe up with a topic to distract Belle from mentioning the embarrassing topic


    again, a low voice called out from the house ahead of them, "Is that Belle''s brother Darren? Come in,


    please!" Darren rxed and went in. The moment he entered the house, he saw Elder Xenia lying on a


    bed with a pallid and haggard face.


    Darren folded his hands together and bowed politely before taking a seat.


    Elder Xenia rose and leaned her back against the bedstead in order to face Darren and talk to him


    properly. She looked at Darren from head to toe and grinned with appreciation. "I didn''t expect you to


    be so handsome, boy. Did you ever me me from taking Belle away from you?" she asked.


    "I would never have done that. Besides, you have been so kind and caring towards Belle. No words


    can express how thankful I am for all that you have done for her, but nevertheless, I still want to thank


    you for all the effort you have put in raising Belle," Darren said. Darren stood up and bowed his head


    again sincerely. He felt deeply indebted towards the woman who had raised his sister and taught her


    everything to be an agreeabledy.


    Elder Xenia smiled. She was very impressed with Darren''s polite and courteous demeanor. "You are


    indeed a good boy. You talk about your gratitude to me, but actually it was you who saved me from


    being killed. If it weren''t for you, I would not be lying here and talking to you. I owe you a really big


    favor. Looking at you, I could not help but remember the day I separated you and Belle. At that time,


    you were just an immature little boy. But now, you have grown up into such a mighty, excellent fighter. I


    am really proud of you!" she said. She motioned for Darren to sit back down in his seat.


    Darren was not one to hesitate or be irresolute. After thanking Elder Xenia, he sat down at once.


    With a confused look, Darren said again, "Elder Xenia, I don''t understand. Given the prominent


    cultivation base you have umted, I''m guessing you have already reached the middle stage of the


    Wonder Realm. Being already in such a high realm, who even had the ability to hurt you so badly?


    That''s just so unbelievable to me." On the basis of strength, Elder Xenia definitely ranked in the top ten


    among all the elders in the entire Holy Land. Anyone who was strong enough to overpower her could


    not have been someone ordinary, so Darren had been thinking about it hard on his way there.


    Upon hearing Darren''s confusion, a wry smile formed on Elder Xenia''s lips. For a moment, she merely


    shook her head, not offering an exnation.


    "It was the people from the Chasm n," Belle pointed out after a few moments of silence. "Those


    bastards came across my master in the monster domain. She had been looking for some magical


    herbs when they saw her. When they saw that my master had already found quite a few valuable


    herbs, those bullies attacked her and not only snatched the herbs from her, but also united their forces


    and badly injured her," she added. Belle grew irritated as the unpleasant memory of the past came


    alive in her mind. She felt so sorry for what her master had been through.


    Darren was not surprised, though. Right from the beginning, Darren had a feeling that the Chasm n


    might be the one to me for Elder Xenia''s injuries. The Chasm n was one of the two biggest


    forces in the southern territory, and they had a bad reputation for bullying others who were inferior to


    them in strength.


    "A bunch of vicious and evil assholes!" Darren eximed. Seeing how severely injured Elder Xenia


    was, Darren became filled with fury.


    Elder Xenia sighed and shook her head in dismay. "You don''t need to worry about me. I am in a much


    better condition now. All of my wounds have healed already and my body strength will be back to


    normal in no time. We cannot draw our sword against the Chasm n now because they are still much


    stronger and powerful than we are. We can''t afford to bring any more damage to our Holy Land," she


    said remorsefully. Elder Xenia thought about all of the years they had spent living under the threats of


    the Chasm n, and an immense surge of hatred rushed through her veins.
