Chapter 52 Returning To The Acqua City (Part One)
While they were on their way to the Acqua City, the three people showed great respect to Darren.
Being treated with utmost politeness, Darren felt a little strange. But he knew it was just one of the
naturalws: respect is awarded to the best of the best.
They moved forward as quickly as time flew. Fourteen hourster, they finally caught a glimpse of the
dim outline of the Acqua City.
"Captain Toby, I have something that I must deal with in the Acqua City. Do you mind if I take my leave
now and just meet you in the Chu n tomorrow?"
Darren asked after the moment they arrived at the gate of the Acqua City.
"We are at your disposal," Toby answered politely, "but..." He wanted to say something, but decided to
hold it back as he felt some kind of embarrassment.
Seeing that Toby hesitated in speaking, Darren shed him a tiny smile and said, "You don''t have to
worry, just tell me what you want to say."
He recalled that when he was a child, he had seen the mighty captain along with the crowd and that he
envied his majestic authority. But now the captain had humbled himself in front of him. Mixed emotions
stirred up in Darren''s heart.
Hearing Darren''s words, Toby couldn''t help but feel a bit awkward but he replied with honesty, "Would
you mind if I introduce you as the guest of the Governor''s Office in the election campaign? It would
definitely bring the Governor''s Office great honor to have you as our guest."
Darren wasn''t surprised that Toby would put forward a serious matter, but it turned out to be nothing
more than a simple request. He agreed without hesitation.
"Thank you so much. We look forward to seeing you tomorrow, Sir," Dale gave him his thanks and
bade him goodbye
before he looked at Alison who was rooted to her spot, staring at Darren with a look of admiration. "My
sister, do you want to go with him?" Dale made fun of her.
Hearing this, Alison felt angry and embarrassed at the same time. She said sulkily as her face turned
red and almost resembled a tomato, "Are you really my brother? I have no time for any of your
impudence."
"Oh, dear. Why did you react so hostile towards me? Are you ming me for urately reading your
face and speaking your mind for you?" Dale joked. A yful smile dashed across his lips.
"Okay, I think you''ve said enough. Stop it with your pranks and jokes. You''re embarrassing yourselves
in front of others," Toby interfered with his gentle voice.
Seeing this, Darren couldn''t help but smile. He then gestured to leave. .
After he stepped into the Acqua City, he immediately headed east, where the Chu n was located.
He hadn''t been around for about half a year. All sorts of emotions surged through him as he found
himself walking on the streets again. It was surreal to have strong martial artists pass by him and salute
him with respect.
Just as he was walking through the crowd, he heard a strange voice with his ears—
"I swear I would do everything to make the Chu n pay. I would make them all die without any
remaining descendant."
Using his mind, Darren immediately discovered where the voice wasing from.
It was a young girl dressed in green. Her beautiful face was zing with murderous hatred. Beside her
was an old man who possessed an impressively steady aura.
"Ina, don''t muddle things up. Killing some juniors of the Chu n is surely enough to teach them a
lesson," the old man said to her.
"Master, you have no idea about the hardships I''ve gone through these past years, how helpless I was
when my mother died of illness. Without your help, I would have probably starved to death. Now that
the cruel man who abandoned my mother and me has died, the sins of him are passed on to his

children. So I have decided to take revenge on his descendants by wiping out all of them!" the girl
fumed as her face grew dimmer.
"Ina, you are at the first stage of the Spirit Realm and I believe most youngsters in the Chu n
wouldn''t stand a chance against you. I will turn a blind eye on you as long as you don''t overdo it and
catch the attention of the Governor''s Office. Though the strength of the Governor''s Office isn''t that
powerful, it is still an organization of the government. If you dare irritate them, they have the power to
call all possible forces into action. By that time, even I would have a lot of trouble trying to fix things."
"Master, you have truly been very nice to me and I''m certain you are the best person on earth. With
your incredible power of the ninth stage of the Spirit Realm and your status as the elder of the Valiance
Sect, I believe it will be a piece of cake for you to ovee the Governor''s Office. I know you have the
power to help me, please!" Ina begged.
"s! You are really quite a stubborn girl. You have to promise me that after this, you''re going to work
hard in your cultivation and would no longer kill anyone else unless you have to, all right?" the old man
finally agreed but with a simple request.
Hearing this, the girl responded sincerely, "All right."
Their entire conversation was heard by Darren, and the old man also noticed that Darren was
eavesdropping. A gleam of sharp light shot out from his eyes, dashing towards Darren with great
power.
"What the...? The light is infused with great spiritual power," Darren murmured to himself while
frowning.
The moment he sensed the great power, he channeled his own spiritual power in preparation for a
fight. He shot a counter-attack to guard himself!
The two forces shed against each other and it was crystal clear to see which was mightier. The old
man''s face turned pale as he stumbled back a few steps. He was obviously at a disadvantage.
The old man was now aware that he was no match for the young man. A serious look passed over his
face. He then made a polite gesture to Darren and apologized, "I''m sorry if I have offended
you."
