Chapter 496 Impressive Scene (Part Two)


    Now that he had a vivid picture of what was the root of all the mayhems, the leader frowned at


    Lawrence''s story. Yet, as he thought about things in a more profound sense, his eyes were focused on


    Darren.


    Out of the blue, at Lawrence''s surprise, the leader suddenly pped Darren hard in the face.


    The sound was sharp, and the p itself was burning in Darren''s face. Although the strength he used


    was not stronger than an ordinary person''s strength, Darren could feel his face numbing and tingling at


    the same time. He was pped unprepared and was not expecting the leader to do such a thing on


    him.


    "Why did you p me?!"


    Momentster, after a somewhat lengthy pause of disbelief, a look of pure hatred shed across


    Darren''s face. He shouted to express his anger and was wondering what the reason behind the


    unexpected action was.


    "It is because of you, and Eddy grew crazy regardless of the Sacred Pce''s order. Dare you say you


    shouldn''t be med?" the martial artist wearing a purple suit of armor yelled at Darren. His voice was


    cold, with a malicious aura surged towards Darren.


    "I should be med? Why is that so? He wanted to kill my sister. What would you suggest I do? Let


    him be? Should I see my sister die in front of me? He wanted to kill an innocent girl, but I shouldn''t fight


    him or at least stop him? Is that what you mean?" As he vented out the anger in his heart, Darren


    clenched his fist. The clenched fist was so tight that his nails nearly poked into his palm.


    The leader, in return, was overwhelmed at Darren''s outrage. He didn''t mean to p Darren because, in


    fact, the leader had wanted to me Lawrence for this trouble. Yet, he dared not hit him. Lawrence


    was superior and had a higher status than him. Darren, on the other hand, was young, less powerful,


    and way too inferior. Thus he deviated his anger on him—a p on Darren''s face made him feel a bit


    better.


    ''If Lawrence didn''te to save this not so important person, this mishap couldn''t have happened, ''


    thought the leader.


    "Law enforcer! What are you doing? You were mad at me and wanted to correct me, but you dared not


    p me. Am I right? That''s why you pped Darren instead? Are you aware that he broke through the


    restrictions of cultivating both the de and sword skills? Darren has reliable Spirit Power. What''s


    more, he controls the small world from the Grand Void Emperor. Don''t you think we should protect such


    a talent?" Anger shed in Lawrence''s eyes as he confronted the leader with his actions.


    "Mr. Hong, I mean no harm. Yes, he has some potentials, but he was not the one chosen to protect the


    world. It was Eddy who was destined to be the savior of the world. I guess you must know very well


    that we don''t have much time. Three hundred years is not a long time, Mr. Hong. Does it matter


    cultivating the de and sword skills and breaking through some restrictions? Will he break through to


    the Grand Realm? The Holy Realm? Or the Emperor Realm, perhaps? In three hundred years, he


    could be a five-star grand warrior at most. Do you agree with me? Frankly speaking, small


    potatoes such as him won''t help in theing disaster. It''s worthless for you to drive Eddy crazy in lieu


    of this guy!" The leader made a lengthyint. His voice was cold, and he looked down upon


    Darren thinking that he was solely responsible for all the trouble.


    His words were obvious; Darren shouldn''t be saved. Lawrence shouldn''t have enraged Eddy because


    of Darren. For the leader, it didn''t matter if Darren died.


    "Humph." Frustrated at the leader''s tone of voice, Lawrence snorted. With an angry stare, he added,


    "My standards of making friends is not the same as yours. I have my principles about how to decide


    and reason out. Whether I should save Darren is none of your business. If you want to put the me


    on someone, then just me me. Don''t curse him!"


    "Mr. Hong, your words don''t make sense at all." The leader of the martial artists gave up his argument


    and dared not continue the conversation with Lawrence Hong. Only a snort was made to show his


    discordance and dissatisfaction.


    "Man, don''t be so arrogant. Even Lord Donald respects me. How dare you criticize me? Who do you


    think you are, huh?" Feeling bypassed and disrespected, Lawrence red at the leader, and his cheek


    bulged and reddened because of anger.


    "I dare not criticize you, Mr. Hong. Humph." The leader restrained his anger and stopped talking. After


    all, Lawrence was a senior. His status was as high as Lord Donald; thus, he felt he was responsible to


    address him with high reverence.


    Just a few inches away from them, Darren was standing still. He found it hard to express and suppress

    his feelings at the same time. He was pped, disdained, and ignored. That frustrated him a lot


    because it was the first time in his life that he was humiliated like this.


    ''This is a cruel world. If you are less useful than others, you will be killed like an ant. There is no


    argument for that, that''s just how it is. Whoever has more power and more value will get more attention


    and advantages, '' thought Darren silently.


    He didn''t say anything and kept his silence towards the insult. On his face, no anger or hatred was


    evident. By this time, Darren''s mind was upied by the notion that all he needed to do was to get


    himself more powerful. If he became powerful enough, he would be respected. No one would ignore an


    influential martial artist—least p them in the face.


    With the hatred he felt inside, memories of the incident that happened in the past shed back his


    mind. The same humiliating feeling was felt by Darren when his rtives bullied him in the Chu n.


    "I haven''t felt like this for a long time," muttered Darren in a tone filled with self-pity. Yet, he didn''t show


    any signs of being crossed. Instead, he made a faint smile. The mark and the tingling sensation left by


    the p was still there, but he soon fathomed out how to deal with the trouble.


    "Humph." The leader red at Darren from head to foot and snorted.


    "Haha. Sir, I have a deep understanding of your insult. But sooner orter, you will definitely have a


    taste of that insult too." After saying that, Darren made a big smile and looked at the leader''s eyes


    warily. He vowed to himself that he would get even with this man one day, by hook or by crook.


    The leader was about to insult Darren even more, when he felt changes with the oppressive aura in the


    air. As he looked at Eddy''s direction, it seemed that he had almostpleted the World Upgrade. The


    red light that radiated from him began to fade away gradually.
