CHAPTER 477 FINALLY THERE WAS A CLUE (PART TWO)
And I am with Timothy now. He is about to give up. It's like torture. We will come for you as soon as we
get out of this mess. Take care and be careful!" This message was long and sincere.
"Wait, what torture? What happened to Timothy? What's going on?" asked Darren hurriedly. But there
was no response forthcoming.
And there was still no response on the second day. Darren decided to put it aside for now. His current
priority was rescuing his sister and he must focus.
Darren studied the formula for a total of 10 days, which was quite a long time, and finally, he grasped a
superficial knowledge of it. It was no easy task, to be fair. And now he could communicate with several
Hiding Rule lines and construct something on it. But he was still clumsy. It would take him a little longer
to fully grasp it.
On the 11th day, someone knocked on his door. Darren had no clue who it could be.
It was the first visitor in days and the sound of knocking felt unreal. It echoed in the place and in
Darren's ears.
"Who is it?" Darren didn't open the door, in case it was an unwanted guest out there. He was taking all
the extra super cautious precautions.
"Sir, the young master is asking for you. He said it was urgent," the man outdoor responded without
hesitation, with a clear and firm voice.
"Good. I heard that. I will go now, thank you. You can leave now," Darren responded plainly.
Darren even smartened up a bit before he left the room. Irrespective of everything else, he still wanted
to make a good impression.
The hall was completely empty. There was no sign of Carey anywhere whatsoever. Darren stood in the
middle of the hall, closed his eyes, and waited. And after a short while, a ghostly figure approached
him. Darren felt the presence even with his eyes closed.
"Follow me," silently whispered the shadow before disappearing around the corner. And it turned out to
be Carey, who was really indifferent in attitude. What a bizarre turn of events.
Darren didn't know what game Carey was playing, but he wasn't afraid of him at all. Therefore, Darren
followed Carey closely as he was told. The place was deadly quiet.
They walked for quite a long time, through numerous halls and corridors. Then, Carey stopped in front
of a secret room. At that moment, Darren knew that something had happened. Something big. He
attempted to ready himself.
"Young master, you suddenly look worried. May I ask you what happened?" Darren looked straight at
Carey's eyes, with a fixed gaze.
Carey's face grew even more solemn. It was clear he was in pain. "Kaleb, I treat you as my brother.
And what I am going to tell you is a matter of life and death. Please listen carefully and help me. It is
quite a serious matter." This material belongs to .
"Of course, of course, young master." Carey shook with terror. Darren frowned.
"My father and my uncle are both dead. It is true."
"What? How? When?"
Darren took the news extremely hard. Although he had never met the master of the Red Inferno Sect,
he could pretty much ascertain that the man must be an extremely powerful rule cultivator, based on
the fragment of the master's soul in the crystal ball. How could a man that powerful die so suddenly? It
was unfathomable.
"Young master, can you please tell me exactly what happened to the master and your uncle? I can't
believe it, it's unbelievable..." The astonishment Darren expressed was true and genuine.
"The truth is, I have no idea what happened to them. All I know is that my father entered the forbidden
area and locked himself inside, trying to induce the Primitive Feminine Bloodline into his body. If he had
succeeded, he would have walked out invincible and unparalleled. But I am afraid that the opposite
occurred. Something horrific may have probably attacked his soul. That is all I know." A shade of
sadness and restlessness could be seen in Carey's dull eyes.
Carey had attacked the sect forbidden area as soon as he realized that something was wrong. But it
was too powerful and well-protected for him to break through. He failed.
"And young master summoned me for...um summoned me for..."
Of course Darren knew what Carey wanted him for. If the news broke, the other high ranking leaders of
the sect would immediately carry out an assassination against Carey and usurp the throne. Darren was
no fool.
"Oh, Kaleb. I am afraid the moment the news leaks would be the moment of my death. But I want to
live and I want to carry on the sect. Do you understand me now? You are my most trusted friend. And I
am asking you to help me. I am not wishing for the impossible. All I want is to have you by my side
when the news breaks," said Carey sincerely. "Otherwise I'm afraid all hell will break loose!" Of course
that was not all that Carey wanted and Darren knew that. He just bid his time until Carey spilt out all the
beans.
"Of course, young master. You can count on me. Anything for you." Darren lowered his head to avoid
direct eye contact so Carey would not catch the insincerity in Darren's eyes.
"Anything for me? Oh Kaleb, thank you, that's great. I knew I could count on you. Listen, here is the
plan: for your own safety and mine, we must suppress the three most powerful grand-elders in the sect.
It is imperative! But we are no match for them now. So we have to kidnap, kill, and seize the souls of
the several hundred men who have a Primitive Feminine Bloodline. Then we can force the Primitive
Feminine Bloodline into our bodies and master the inferior true rule. Is it clear so far? Ok.
But if we want the Primitive Feminine Bloodline, we must have three keys to open the place where
those people are locked. I have one key. The second key belongs to my uncle, which I have already
gotten it. And the last one is in the pocket of the three grand-elders. So I am asking you to steal that
key from them, from the three grand-elders. Will you do it, Kaleb?" The moment Carey found his
uncle's dead body, he took the key and burned the corpse.
And at the moment, the only thing Darren cared about was his sister's whereabouts. Finally, it seemed
there was a clue.
