CHAPTER 391 THE ATONEMENT (PART TWO)
"Take me to the Governor's Office now."
Just as the two of them grew extremely desperate, Darren's thunderous voice came to them, which
made them overjoyed. Their despair was replaced with a glimmer of hope.
Without any hesitation, they did not waste any time and ran towards the direction of Darren as if they
were a drowning man trying to grab the only floating object on the surface of the water.
"Tell me, how do I get to the Heavenly Serene Graveyard?" Darren asked, still in an indifferent tone,
while kept walking forward and did not send them so much as a glance even as they hurriedly followed
suite to his position. He knew that they were coming up from behind.
"Thank you for your forgiveness. Please follow me and I will lead you to the Governor's Office. Now
there are too many people around. When we reach the Governor's Office, I will tell you everything that
you wish to know," the young man said, his voice full of deep respect. This time, Darren did not turn
him down and followed him to the Governor's Office instead.
When they reached the Governor's Office, the Governor was there waiting for them and he personally
greeted them outside of the gate. At that moment, there was already another powerful warrior at his
residence.
"Greetings, sir!" Even from such long distance, the Governor already began to salute Darren with deep
respect.
"Governor, I need to remind you of your current position. You are a Governor and you are the leader of
this entire area. So there is no need and it is also quite inappropriate for you to be so humble in front of
anyone." A middle-aged man came next to the Governor, holding his head up with great pride and
arrogance as if he was the king of the world. His cultivation base was indeed powerful as anyone could
tell from his aura. He was the warrior that the Governor had recruited earlier.
When he accepted the Governor's proposal, the Governor was also very nice and respectful towards
him. However, he noticed that he had not been as humble as he was now, which displeased this
warrior a little bit.
Darren heard that middle-aged man's arrogant and demeaning comment, but he did not seem to mind
it. Accompanied by the Governor himself, Darren began to enter the grand building.
"What is with such a grandeur welcoming? He is nothing but a low level martial artist! There will be tons
of high level martial artists and powerful warriors at the meeting. I don't think this little fella could be
much of help except for playing dead!" that middle-aged warrior complained arrogantly as he thought
that Darren was nothing but just a pretentious warrior. He did not hold back his harsh comments
towards Darren.
"Talk like this again, and I will have you beheaded," Darren said in a cold and flat tone as his face grew
sullen. He did not care much about such comment from an irrelevant person, but the self-righteousness
and pretentiousness in it annoyed him the most.
"How dare you talk to me like this! I should teach you a lesson so that you can learn your place!" the
middle-aged warrior instantly responded with rage as he was set off by Darren's comeback. He
immediately released his power which was at the advanced stage of the Wonder Realm. The Governor,
along with his men, could not resist such a strong force that it made them nearly collapse to their
knees.
"Please, let's all calm down a bit! I am begging you! When the two of you fight, our innocent people
may get caught in the middle of it and get killed. Please have mercy!" the Governor pleaded
desperately. He looked like he was about to cry as he had never faced such a strong power
demonstrated by the middle-aged warrior before. Just a few seconds ago, he was pretty convinced that
he was about to be crushed to a pulp by such power.
At that moment, Darren had been provoked and he really wanted to teach that arrogant man a lesson,
but seeing the situation, he did not want any innocent people to die from his action. He took in a deep
breath and calmed himself. When he had calmed his nerves, he then turned to the Governor and said
in a cold manner, "Let's just go in there and tell me about this meeting. I will see what I can do to help."
That middle-aged warrior thought that Darren had been intimidated by his power. His pride was greatly
boosted by Darren's inaction and he felt his bones tingling with excitement as his arrogance surged
higher. With a victorious big smile, he held up his head high like a winner and stepped into the building.
When they settled in at the Governor's Office, an assistant of the Governor assembled them and
explained in the detail about the meeting that was to be held.
"The demonic monsters have been invading our land and killing our civilians recently, which was the This belongs to - ©.
reason that the Governor is assembling all you powerful warriors. This is also the order that came from
above, and we don't have a choice in this. So if we have disturbed you in any way, please
understand......"
"Enough with this chitchat! Let's cut to the chase! I am not here to waste my time!" that middle-aged
warrior at the advanced stage of the Wonder Realm babbled as he glared angrily which scared the
assistant into kneeling.
The assistant crawled on the ground as his whole body shook from fear. He was too scared to even
look at that middle-aged warrior as he continued, "Of...Of course, I wouldn't dare wasting your time.
This meeting is arranged directly by our grand warrior. Besides the top-notch warriors from his side, he
ordered that each cities must send two warriors at the advanced stage of the Wonder Realm to attend
the meeting. This meeting is mainly about discussing and planning the take down the Heavenly Serene
Graveyard. Also, discussion about a groom-selection competition will also be held at the meeting. My
apologies to you, but I have not been notified of the detailed information about the competition. So this
part will be up to you to find out.
There are many perils looming on the path of this journey. Two masters, although I know that both of
you are very powerful, please be extremely cautious and vigilant. We are all counting on you!"
"There must be many tier-one warriors who will attend this meeting, so even a warrior at the advanced
stage of the Wonder Realm may only add the headcount and be treated as a cannon fodder," Darren,
after a moment of contemplation, voiced his concern in a flat tone.
Boom!
Upon hearing Darren's comment, the hot-tempered middle-aged warrior was once again set off, and
out of rage, he blasted the desk in front of him to pieces using his palm.
