Chapter 427 Aaron Is Out (Part Two)


    "Here hees." As the red light grew brighter and they fell closer and closer towards it, Hailey


    blubbered with a trembling voice.


    Hearing her erratic voice, Darren and the rest of the group turned their faces back at Hailey and saw a


    ck ray of light quickly fly over before halting at less than a thousand feet from them. They couldn''t


    believe their eyes. All of them were confused as to what the ck ray of light was.


    To their amazement, it was the little boy. He stood there with hispletely dark eyes fixed on them.


    There was something odd about how he stared at them with his ck eyes. The dark aura that he had


    was also eerie as if it was one of the most mysterious ces in the world. The way he flexed his


    shoulders and clenched his fists made the group realized that he was ready to swallow them up at any


    time. The fright made their hairs stand on ends.


    "How are you doing, brother?"


    The little boy grinned mischievously, just like the Cheshire cat, which gave them a creepy feeling.


    Worst was, his voice sounded like a ghastly ghoul, creepy yet annihting.


    Like a block of ice broke from being frozen, Darren suddenly transpired in a cold sweat and said


    gingerly, "I saved you before, don''t you remember? Could you please spare us for now? Leave us


    alone and let us live."


    "Yes, you saved me, brother. That is the reason why I always wanted to repay you," the boy replied


    calmly.


    "Mr. Little Boy, how about you stay away from Darren? That would be enough to repay him," suggested


    Abrd with a hesitant and quivering voice. He was trying very hard to ensconce the trembling of his


    knees, yet his voice betrayed him.


    "Poof!"


    Hearing the words "Mr. Little Boy," Darren and Timothy could not help but give a little giggle amidst the


    heavily tensed atmosphere. It seemed that Abrd was somewhat frightened, too, so he had no idea


    about the words that came out of his mouth.


    As the little boy heard Abrd''s words, he felt humiliated and underestimated. Thus, he released a


    cold aura towards Abrd, threatening to kill him directly.


    Whoosh!


    In a fraction of a second, Darren flew before Abrd, protecting him from the freezing blow. Thanks to


    the armor on his body, Darren sessfully resisted the terrible aura. Without Darren and his armor,


    Abrd would have been killed—helpless and lifeless!


    "Stop talking!" still dazed and shocked, Darren whispered to the people behind him while looking at the


    little boy warily. Everyone went vignt and cautious at the same time. They made themselves ready in


    case the little boy would give another unexpected attack.


    Thankful that he was still alive while hearing his own heart throbbing at the same time, Abrd shrank

    away from the boy and curled up behind Darren, never daring to repeat a word. The confidence that he


    had earlier in confronting the little boy was reced with foreboding and fear of him.


    "Your name is Aaron, right?" intending to divert the little boy''s attention, Darren asked tentatively.


    "Yes!" The cold aura in the little boy''s voice weakened a little as he answered Darren''s question.


    "I do not need you to repay me anything, Aaron. You are free now, so if you can get out of here, just


    leave, please! The outside world is vast and exciting. I bet you will love it out there." Though Darren did


    not know what would happen if the little boy went out, he had no other choice.


    In his head, he thought that if the little boy would mess around in the outside world, maybe thew


    enforcers of the Medium Spiritual World would notice. They might be able to deal with the little boy.


    "No, I just want you to die, brother." The little boy shook his head, and his words pierced through


    Darren like a double sharped de.


    "Screw you!" infuriated at the moment, Darren roared. He was furious and helpless, yet he continued to


    say, "What kind of creature are you? Why don''t you just let me go? Damn it! What have I done wrong to


    you? What benefits will you get if I die? Tell me!"


    As the little boy saw Darren''s angry look, he involuntarily stepped backward. His face suddenly grew


    pale and horror-stricken.


    "But... How?"


    The little boy stammered and paused as he saw the red light below, shining more brightly. A rumbling


    and shaking sound was heard from beneath them.


    Everyone, including Darren, looked down at the approaching red glowing light. They saw the hot mes


    zing up. s! They were in a magma chamber.


    "It is so hot!"


    Except for Darren, the other three felt like they were about to melt.


    "I have managed to grasp the me intent and formed them into a solid core in my elixir field. That


    might be the reason why I can resist part of the heat." Darren realized the cause when he felt the lively


    mes attached to the de core in his elixir field. The mes were skipping actively.


    Plop! Plop! Plop!


    One by one, the bodies of the resentful revenants who were ughtered by the little boy fell into the


    boilingva. asionally, some of the revenants who were not killed were also thrown off into theva.


    Dead or alive, they suffered the same end, helpless and vulnerable at the swelteringke of fire.


    As for Darren, the moment he sensed that the three people beside him could no longer stand the heat,


    he tried to mobilize the me intent to surround them. He did that with the hope that it would somehow


    relieve and help them resist the unbearably hot furnace.


    "Hmm, I feel much better now. What is going on?" questioned Timothy, feeling a little relieved and


    cooled by now.


    "Oh, I see! It is the me intent in your body. That is protecting us. Am I right, Darren?" asked Abrd.


    Right at the same time, Timothy and Abrd looked at Darren in surprise. The fact that Darren was


    able to acquire and cultivate the me intent right now shocked them.


    "Thank you!" wiping the sweat off her forehead, Hailey said, nodding at Darren. She was grateful to the


    warrior for helping them bear with the scalding heat.


    "That is good news for me if the me intent works," with a sad smile on his face, Darren responded


    softly. Then, with a forlorn look, he cast his eyes to the distance.


    While everyone was silent, as they were thinking of ways on how to escape the fervid torture, the little


    boy fell to the dancing mes. His descent was so fast that they noticed that he was not paying any


    attention to Darren any more. Yet, his dark, maleficent eyes were fixed in a particr direction.
