Chapter 357 Recognizing The Grand Blood Refiner


    Elder Sky nced at the Grand Blood Refiner for a few seconds. Suspicion shed through his eyes


    but it disappeared as fast as it urred. Then, he looked back at Darren.


    "Young man, I heard that you even beat Shane. You are indeed a talent." Elder Sky examined Darren


    carefully and detected that he was only at the primary stage of the Wonder Realm. He couldn''t help but


    be astonished. However, because of his status, he didn''t show his emotion on his face. He stared back


    at Darren neutrally.


    Of course Dn, the supreme trainer of the Heavenly Pce Sect, was also very surprised.


    They were two-star grand warriors at the top level who had lived for over hundreds of years. Never had


    they seen someone at the primary stage of the Wonder Realm like Darren.


    "You are a good one, Darren. My disciples are quite lucky to know you," Dn praised with a smile on


    his face. He patted Darren softly on the back.


    "I''m the lucky one to meet them. I can only say that it is fate that brought us together. Thank you very


    much for what you did today." Darren bowed respectfully to them once again.


    "Don''t mention it. It''s not a big deal." Then he rose up and gave him a gentle smile. "I heard that you


    also know Elder Star. Come visit if you have time. Here. It''s the token of our Heavenly Pce Sect. You


    can get in freely with it." Dn handed over a token to Darren to which he didn''t refuse. He received it


    in his hands gratefully.


    Even though Elder Star was not a grand warrior, he held a very high ce in the sect. So when Dn


    mentioned his name, he sounded respectful.


    "Thank you, Sir. I will definitely take up your offer and visit you one day." Darren expressed his gratitude


    and nodded his head.


    "All right. We won''t disturb you anymore. I''m going for a walk with Elder Sky. You guys go ahead and


    do your own thing." With these words, Dn turned to Elder Sky and motioned for him to go with him.


    Elder Sky responded in agreement, and they were about to leave when suddenly, he eximed, "Wait


    a minute!" Elder Sky halted, his gaze falling on the Grand Blood Refiner again.


    "You look so familiar, and there is also a strong murderous intent on you. If what I think is right, you are


    him!" he blurted out. His gaze was like a sharp knife that could pierce through everything. He stared at


    the Grand Blood Refiner with a clear look of recognition on his face.


    "Haha! Who do you mean by ''him''?" The Grand Blood Refinerughed mockingly, and pretended not to


    know what he meant.


    "Are you really asking me this, Grand Blood Refiner?" Elder Sky threatened as he red at the Grand


    Blood Refiner with stone cold eyes. He pursed his lips and put his hands behind his back.


    ''Damn it!'' Darren''s heart dropped all of a sudden. The Grand Blood Refiner was a famous demon for


    over hundreds years. Now that Elder Sky had recognized him, he would never let them go easily this


    time.


    "Elder Sky..." Darren took a step forward, wanting to exin the situation. But before he could finish his


    words, the Grand Blood Refiner reached a hand out and stopped him.


    He stood up and walked to stand in front of Elder Sky with his back straight. He opened his mouth and


    said calmly, "I''m surprised that you recognized me after all these years. But I don''t remember meeting


    you before."


    "Ha! You are a famous demon who''s thirsty for blood. Of course I recognize you! You were seriously


    hurt and on the brink of death. I didn''t expect that you could recover," Elder Sky hissed with a frown on


    his face, clearly dissatisfied with this oue. He shook his head disapprovingly.


    The air was filled with difficult awkwardness now that Elder Sky pointed out the Grand Blood Refiner''s


    real identity. Needless to say, it wasn''t a veryfortable situation.


    "Yes, I recovered a bit, but I''m still not your match. Why are you saying this? Do you want to kill me


    today?" The Grand Blood Refiner sneered with a cold smirk on his face. He stared at him provokingly.


    "Huh?" The frown on Elder Sky''s face deepened. He exuded a threatening aura all of a sudden.


    "Elder Sky, please, let me exin!" Feeling something was about to go down, Darren quickly walked up


    to Elder Sky.


    Darren cupped his hands apologetically and lowered his head, bowing politely towards him. Then he


    said in an honest voice, "Sir, please don''t be this mad. In fact, what happened years ago was all a


    frame-up. He was framed."


    "Ha!" Elder Sky snorted in disbelief, but he still withdrew his aura hearing Darren''s words. After calming


    down, he said, "Young man, don''t be fooled. He''s a demon who had killed so many people, and he


    wouldn''t hesitate to deceive you. In fact, it''s easy for him to do so, especially when you are so young


    and trusting."


    "Darren, let him! Don''t waste time exining to him! He can do whatever he wants to do!" the Grand


    Blood Refiner bellowed, his eyebrows furrowed as he looked at Elder Sky with contempt. He was never


    a coward. He feared nothing, even though he was now facing a person who was probably much


    stronger than him. Despite his inferiority, he was not going to back down.


    "Fine! I didn''t n to kill you at first. But now that you said it, I will punish you to death on behalf of all


    the people you have murdered!" Hearing the Grand Blood Refiner''s words, Elder Sky couldn''t help but


    get angry, wanting to start a fight. He was deeply provoked and his aura had shifted to a wrathful and


    powerful one.


    p!


    A loud pping sound echoed in the air, making everyone aghast. Darren pped the Grand Blood


    Refiner, on the face! They all stared at the both of them in shock and disbelief.


    "Darren?! " The Grand Blood Refiner froze in shock and touched his cheek defensively. Never in a


    million years would he have thought that Darren would p him in the face! The p didn''t hurt, but his


    pride did.

    "Are you really that stupid? Do you really want to die today? If you die today, it will be a clear message


    to everyone that you are indeed the demon who killed people, which I don''t believe, not for a second


    for God''s sake! If you don''t want to clear your name, that''s fine. But don''t drag me into this mess and


    destroy my reputation!" Darren shouted exasperatedly.


    In fact, Darren didn''t care about his reputation at all. He knew for a fact that the Grand Blood Refiner


    was an honest and just man. He only said these harsh words to make him less stubborn and listen to


    him.


    "Darren! You are forever my friend, man!" the Grand Blood Refiner replied instead and his frown was


    reced with a smile that reached his eyes. He was not angry at Darren''s words at all. Of course, he


    immediately realized what Darren really meant and it touched him.


    "Sky Xiao, I have never backed down once in my life before. But I know that what Darren said is right. I


    want my name to be cleared. So, I will back down today. Please don''t fight me. But when my name is


    cleared, I hope you cane and apologize to me. I believe it''s not a difficult demand, is it?" the Grand


    Blood Refiner cupped his hands, saying to Elder Sky. Despite the extreme difficulty for him to back


    down, he did so.


    The frown on Elder Sky''s face lightened. It was a nice surprise that the mighty Grand Blood Refiner


    would back down. He never expected him to do something like that.


    But what touched him the most was the moment when Darren pped the Grand Blood Refiner in the


    face. He was deeply disrespected and humiliated by that p that one would think he would


    immediately seek revenge. Yet, there wasn''t a single ounce of threat or anger in him when it happened.


    He didn''t find any trace of desire for murder in the Grand Blood Refiner''s eyes. This fact alone made


    him doubt the rumors and he couldn''t help but think that maybe there was indeed some


    misunderstanding.


    "To be honest, you are my elder. If you can really prove that you were framed, of course I wille and


    apologize to you. I will let you off easily this time for Darren''s sake. Many people have told me that he is


    an honest young man. I believe him,"


    Elder Sky said, then turned to Darren and added, "Because you insist that the Grand Blood Refiner


    was framed, Darren, I won''t fight him today. But you have to know that you will be responsible for the


    consequences if it turns out that he has been lying to get all his strength back."


    The message was clear as day. If the Grand Blood Refiner was truly framed, Elder Sky would humbly


    apologize to him for his mistake. But if he was really a blood-thirsty demon who was going to kill more


    people, then Darren would probably take responsibility for it and make amends with his life.


    "Don''t worry, Sir. I don''t think I believed in the wrong guy. I will do my best to help him get his strength


    back and find the person who framed him. Everything will be clear then, so will his name!" Darren


    promised confidently as he stared at them with great determination.


    "I hope so." To be honest, Elder Sky didn''t fully believe his words. But now that Darren promised so


    honestly to him, he didn''t want to put the Grand Blood Refiner on the spot anymore.


    Then he turned and said to Dn, "Please take me to your Heavenly Pce Sect, Dn. We will pay a


    visit to the master."


    "Okay, Sir. Let''s go." Dn disregarded the Grand Blood Refiner. He said a few words to the supreme


    disciples and left with Elder Sky.


    The people that Shane and Tab had brought also left after them. Soon after, the only people who were


    left were those familiar with Darren.


    Bang!


    Darren dropped to one knee before the Grand Blood Refiner all of a sudden and opened his mouth,


    "I''m sorry that I pped you in front all those people today!"
