Chapter 390 The Atonement (Part One)


    "Ignorant bastard! You have no idea what I am capable of. I pity you!" With such tremendous energy,


    Darren had reduced the notice in his hand to pieces and went on his way forward without uttering


    another word to the young man.


    "Hey! Stop right there! What are you guys waiting for? Stop him!"


    the young man screamed in so much frustration as he saw that Darren was leaving and a group of


    soldiers, instead of blocking his path, cleared a way for him.


    "What is that about? Howe these soldiers are scared of him?" The woman grew curious as she


    fixed her eyes on Darren''s receding figure.


    Just as she murmured to herself, she suddenly noticed that the young man beside her had frozen. He


    just stood there, motionless with nothing but his Adam''s apple moving up and down.


    "What a powerful sword intent!"


    Everyone present, aside from the woman, felt like an extremely sharp sword was being held against


    every inch of their thick skins. It was so strong that they were deeply convinced that if they made a


    single move or even just flinch from the pressure, it would tear their flesh and they would be reduced to


    a pile of meat.


    Darren unleashed such a formidable sword intent in a rather casual manner that it shocked everyone


    present to their cores. It also made that young man realize that Darren was actually a peerless warrior


    that he would worship all his short life.


    "I...I am sorry, sir!"


    Darren finally faded away from everyone''s sight and along with his disappearance, the powerful sword


    intent also vanished into the thin air. The young man could no longer hold himself together and


    copsed on the ground, kneeling in the direction where Darren had gone to. He expelled a breath he


    did not know he was holding.


    The ordinary people, who couldn''t feel the sword intent, were baffled when they saw the group of


    soldiers standing there motionless with faces pale as white sheet. They observed them nervously and


    intensely as they could not understand what had actually happened.


    "The young master of the Governor''s Office, who is a warrior of the Wonder Realm, kneeled because of


    that young man?"


    "That young man must be somebody. He even made the young master scared, which is quite rare to be


    seen."


    The young man of the Governor''s Office, hurriedly stood up and regained hisposure. Then, he told


    the confused beautiful woman what he had felt earlier. As he exined it to her, her curious, gorgeous


    eyes grew worried. Only then did she realize that their lives were at a great risk moments ago.


    "So he must be a powerful swordsman, and we just crossed him. What should we do now to atone for


    our misdeed?" the beautiful woman quietly murmured to herself, looking really concerned and tense.


    "It was my fault for looking down upon him. We have to find and recruit him. If I fail in recruiting some


    geniuses in the city, my uncle will be med." The young master sighed in great frustration. His


    eyebrows were furrowed and his lips were set into a deep line. He med himself for not recognizing a


    warrior with such great power.


    "But you just..."


    "It will be okay. I will apologize and atone to him for my disrespect. Despite what I have done to him, he


    still chose not to kill me. And that tells me something about him. I think he is kind in his nature. If I can


    apologize to him wholeheartedly, I think he will forgive me. Furthermore, this is about ying the


    demonic monsters, which is much more important than any form of personal grudge. I also have


    reason to believe that is the reason why he is here. I think he will let this unpleasant encounter slide."


    "I think you are right. We cannot do something like this ever again, belittling someone. We should


    always be respectful of other people. He looks younger than any one of us, but he is a warrior with


    ability beyondparison. How could I miss it?" the woman pondered. She was in her early twenties,


    but she was already in the Wonder Realm, something that she was quite proud of. She held her head


    high as she had believed that she was a genius until her encounter with Darren a moment ago. She


    suddenly realized that she was nothingpared to that young man.


    Darren found a random inn to stay after he had left those soldiers. He actually did not hold much


    grudge for what had happened to him. There was absolutely no reason for him tounch a killing spree.


    After all, they were just people. Arrogant as they were, they did not deserve to die.


    He had stayed here for two days. On the third morning, when he got out of the inn, he found that the


    entrance was blocked by arge group of people.


    He joined therge group of people to see what themotion was about. He followed the direction


    where everyone was staring and saw a half-naked man, carrying a bunch of thorny vine on his back


    while a que that read "Please forgive me" was hanging from his neck.


    Darren''s eyes shifted from confusion to clear recognition as he noticed that this young man was none


    other than the one that had despised him a couple of days ago.


    At that moment, their eyes met and the young man also saw Darren staring at him. He immediately


    bowed down and said, "Sir, I crossed and disrespected you a couple of days ago, and now I am here to


    atone for my misdeed. Please forgive me, sir!"


    "Just go," Darren said indifferently and then he walked away slowly from the scene, without taking


    another nce at that young man.


    At that moment, that beautiful woman standing beside the young man also stepped up and saluted


    Darren, "Sir, your cultivation base is too powerful that we did not see it the other day. Please forgive us


    for what we have done."


    Darren merely took a nce at her indifferently and then said in an ice cold voice, "Ady should dress


    in a decent manner. You may want to pull up your neckline because I am not buying it."


    When she heard Darren''s explicit and demeaningment, the woman blushed all the way to her


    neck. She was indeed trying to provoke Darren with her beauty as she was quite confident with her


    appearance and charm. However, not only did Darren choose to ignore her, he also explicitly pointed


    out her intention, which gravely embarrassed and angered her at the same time. Despite her mixed


    feeling, she dared not shoot back at Darren. Thus, she could only stand there awkwardly, speechless.


    "I am really sorry for what we have done, sir. Please give us a chance so that we can repent." Seeing


    that Darren was about to leave, the young man fetched a thorny vine from his back and whipped his


    body with full power. Within a matter of minutes, most of the bare skin on his upper body had turned


    bloody. Every onlooker cried out in shock and many of them turned their heads away to avoid seeing

    such a brutal scene.


    However, despite causing quite a scene, Darren still continued to leave without even turning his head


    to look, which disappointed the two of them gravely.


    If they could not find a powerful warrior for the meeting, then the Governor of this city, who was also


    this beautiful woman''s father, would be forced to resign from his post. Furthermore, it was highly likely


    that he would be punished for it. Thus, both of them regretted their action when they first met Darren


    deeply. It was not easy toe across a powerful warrior, yet when they did, they pissed him off and


    pushed him away because of their stupid arrogance.
