CHAPTER 1538 REACHING AN AGREEMENT

"Ha-ha," Darren chuckled sarcastically. "Did you really think it'd be that simple?"

"Then what do you want?" the Purple-crystal King asked exasperatedly.

"Only two things. First, share all the secrets about becoming a chief god with the Rule Soul Avatar.

Second, stand by my side and solve any troubles that come my way," Darren proposed.

"No way in hell! How would that make me any different from a slave?" The Purple-crystal King shook

his head profusely. He could deal with sharing his secrets with the Rule Soul Avatar, but he couldn't

stand the idea of being Darren's slave.

"Think it over. If you could really become a chief god one day, you wouldn't be bound by any vows,"

Darren reminded. He meant to say that as long as the Purple-crystal King became a chief god, he

would be completely free. He could even kill Darren if he was capable of doing so.

The Purple-crystal King paused, successfully swayed by Darren's words.

In the mortal world, his growth was stagnant. It was already difficult for him to break through to the Star

God Realm, not to mention the higher realms.

But if he could return to the Primitive Wilderness, he would have the chance to grow quickly. Moreover,

it would be possible for him to collect the other parts of the Chief God Character and become a chief

god recognized by heaven and earth. By then, nothing could get in his way, unless the strongest

Balance Law in the Primitive Wilderness descended.

"Okay then. I agree to your terms." The Purple-crystal King nodded after thinking it over.

"You're wise. Swear your allegiance to me first. Then, when you go to the Primitive Wilderness later,

you can swear to the Rule Soul Avatar."

Darren knew his plan was foolproof. When they arrived in the Primitive Wilderness, the Rule Soul

Avatar and the Twelve Great Witchers would be able to determine whether the oath made by the

Purple-crystal King was effective or not. If the oath was invalid, Darren, the Rule Soul Avatar and the

Twelve Great Witchers would kill the Purple-crystal King on the spot and then take the fragment of the

Chief God Character.

Since he had made up his mind, the Purple-crystal King didn't hesitate any further. Right then and

there, he made an oath according to Darren's requirements.

"All right. From now on, we are allies," Darren declared firmly. "The first order of business: to destroy all

the purple-crystal creatures that are stronger than ordinary."

"Sure,"

the Purple-crystal King said immediately.

To him, these people were nothing but tools used to plunder resources for the purpose of growing

stronger and entering the Primitive Wilderness one day.

Now that he had reached an agreement with Darren, in his eyes, these purple-crystal creatures were

useless.

Boom! Boom!

The purple light suddenly burst out and filled the void. When the light faded, the remaining purple-

crystal creatures had all dissipated.

In addition, the Purple-crystal King also released his unique god's sense to wipe out all the purple-

crystal creatures on the Purple-crystal Continent that were stronger than the Emperor Realm.

"Find a place to wait for me. I will let you know when the time comes," Darren instructed the Purple-

crystal King.

The Purple-crystal King nodded and then flew away.

"I didn't expect this trip to be so fruitful!" In the room, Darren and the others sat opposite each other.

"Yeah, I didn't expect that the Purple-crystal King would be that powerful," Elsa said. Then, in a

concerned voice, she added, "But Darren, your body has been destroyed and you don't have any god's

power. What should we do?"

"It doesn't matter. After all, we came back here through the dream. As long as my soul is not destroyed,

my body will be able to recover. Besides, we have collected so many herbs, which might be of great Content provided by .

help."

"Oh, you're right!" Elsa nodded, her worries dissipating.

"Darren, are you and Elsa going to leave?" Belle's eyes turned red, brimming with tears.

"Well, this was only temporary. We will have to go back soon." Darren decided not to mention anything

about the tribulation. He was afraid Belle would worry about him.

"Don't worry, Belle. Your brother and I will come back often to see you and Sunny in the future," Elsa

said comfortingly.

"Well, I know you have important things to do in the Primitive Wilderness... But Darren, Elsa, can you

take us with you this time? We could all go!"

"Not now," Darren said firmly. "You are not strong enough, and even I can't protect you there. Before

we leave, I will leave some cultivation methods for you and your husband, which will help you surpass

the Emperor Realm sooner. Only then will you have a chance at survival in the Primitive Wilderness.

And only in that way can you be safe."

The Lothlann Continent had already gone through five crises, so as long as any creature reached the

God Realm, they would have the chance to enter the Primitive Wilderness.

Belle felt disappointed, but she knew what her brother said was true.

"Brother..." Belle nodded sorrowfully, tears streaming down her cheeks.

She hadn't cried this much in a long time.

"There, there..." Darren stroked his sister's long hair while patting her back, as he had often done in his

childhood. This comforted Belle somewhat.

Then Darren, Elsa, and Belle went to the Danyun Clan once again.

Hundreds of thousands of people had gathered in front of the palace. These people were all Chu Clan

members, who had scattered around the Lothlann Continent.

"Alas,"

Darren sighed. All of the members of the Chu Clan were strangers to him. The ones he once knew

were all gone now. All of his uncles, aunts, cousins had turned to ashes.

"Come here, boy,"

Darren said to a young child amongst the crowd. He had the ability to detect talent, even at a glance. It

didn't take long for him to spot this boy.

Unhesitatingly, the child came to him.

He was about ten years old, but his young face was full of determination.

"What's your name?" Darren asked gently.

"Kill me if you want. But why should I tell you my name?" The boy straightened his posture, trying to

look as menacing as possible.

"Hurst Chu, get down on your knees. How dare you offend such a great master? Do you want to die?"

Many people who had seen what had happened trembled with fear at the sheer arrogance of this boy.

Afraid they'd be caught in the line of fire if Darren got angry, they scolded the child.

"Just because you're useless and can't open your meridians to begin the cultivation, don't get us

involved in your stupidity, Hurst Chu!"

"Yes, if I offended you, forgive me. Please don't kill me. I have an eighty-year-old mother who needs

me. Please forgive me."

Many people begged for mercy from Darren out of fear.

"Alas," Darren sighed again. He hadn't thought the Chu Clan on the Lothlann Continent would stoop so

low.

"Hurst, listen to me. I'm Darren Chu, an ancestor of the Chu Clan. I order you to become the patriarch

of the Chu Clan and to take charge of all the affairs of the Chu Clan on the Lothlann Continent," Darren

said to the boy bluntly.

"Darren Chu?"

The child named Hurst Chu was stunned. Every member of the Chu Clan was familiar with that name.

Darren was the number one genius of the Chu Clan, and Hurst Chu's childhood was filled with stories

of the famed Darren Chu.

"Impossible. Ancestor Darren became a god and went to another world a long, long time ago. Humph!

Don't lie to me!" he huffed indignantly.

Darren smiled faintly. "It doesn't matter whether you believe it or not. Just do as I say. There is one

more thing I have to say. No matter how strong you will become in the future, don't do anything evil.

Otherwise, I will punish you. Remember my words!"

When he was done speaking, Darren took out some magic herbs and put one hand on Hurst Chu's

shoulder, intending to completely open up his originally blocked meridians.

In a flash, dazzling colorful light burst out from Hurst Chu's body.
