CHAPTER 602 MARKED AGAIN (PART TWO)
When everything was calmed and settled, Darren was left standing, alone, desolate, and filled with
remorse and misery. All these mixed up emotions made him frown momentarily.
Yet, torture and torment didn't end there. Horror filled Darren's eyes when he saw in his chest the mark
of the cross. This time, however, the mark was made to completion.
As it all synced into him, Darren's face turned livid with rage. After all that they had done to him, Darren
was overwhelmed with hatred at these unknown subjects.
"Come on if you want! I'll kill all of you!" Darren roared, shaking the whole city with his uproar.
But after this shout of challenge, the noise in the Impeccant City suddenly quieted down as if they were
jounced and shuddered by Darren's powerful aura.
To vent out his anger, Darren roared and roared incessantly until he was parched and exhausted.
He wanted to find Ella's dead body and give her a decent burial that she deserved. Howbeit, he
searched high and low, but he couldn't find anything, as she was reduced to dust by that vile figurine
creature.
"I'm sorry, Ella. You may rest assured that I will kill those creatures from the Divine Lunar Sect to
avenge you and your family's death!"
Clutched on his hands was the dust from the ruins as he made such a promise to Ella in a deep voice.
After shedding a tear or two, Darren soared into the sky at breakneck speed.
As soon as he was midair, a powerful aura locked in on him.
"No need to hurry," whispered a voice in Darren's ears.
"What?" asked Darren in a puzzled tone.
Whoever it was, Darren knew that he was not that weak when it came to both talents and intents, but
Darren was in a rage right now and would not doubtfully kill anyone who came on his way.
"What? Do you want to die too?" asked Darren icily. Though he wasn't able to see the face of the man Belongs © to .
bearing the voice yet.
"Ha-ha. Don't get me wrong, young man. I am Zavier Fang, the Governor of Impeccant City. I see that
you are extremely powerful, so I am here to pay my respects to you." The man who presented himself
to Darren laughed and showed no hostility towards the enraged warrior.
"I killed your soldiers. Aren't you going to arrest me?" Darren asked with a blank face, not heeding to
his flattery.
"Oh, they were just a few minions, and they don't matter. They deserve it," the man replied casually.
"Then why do you want to see me? Just tell me what you want, straight away." Considering the man's
nature, Darren knew that he hadn't come to him for chitchat.
"You're really a straightforward guy. Then I won't beat around the bush. I come here to invite you to join
my Sacred Wind Palace. Do you have any interest?" probed Zavier Fang.
"What is the Sacred Wind Palace? Anyway, I am not interested." With that being said, Darren turned to
leave.
"Don't worry. It will not take too much of your time to hear me out.
Impeccant City is just an epitome of this area. The entire world is filled with killings and crimes. If you
go out alone and travel outside, you will be doomed sooner or later. Only by joining my Sacred Wind
Palace and working together with us can you survive.
I know that you are powerful alone, even more powerful than I am. But on this vast land, countless
strong people make a living by killing. In those big tribes, there are a lot of martial artists who are
inferior holy warriors. It's dangerous for you to walk alone.
To join the Sacred Wind Palace, you don't need to pay any price, and you can have our protection for
free. Why not take us to your consideration?"
Fearing that Darren would leave, Zavier kept convincing him to stay by firing words to persuade him.
"I don't need any protection. Besides, you said that I don't need to pay any price to get protection. Is
there such a good thing in the world?" Darren sneered at him in his heart. Why would Zavier be so kind
to do such thing if it wasn't unprofitable?
"What I said is truthful. I invited you to join the Sacred Wind Palace, and I will absolutely not ask you
anything in return. Once you are in danger, you just need to let us know, and I will send some
competent people to help you. You will have absolutely nothing to lose if you join us,"
Zavier continued, determined to have Darren on their side.
"I don't believe you." With a scorn on his face, Darren gave him a simple answer.
The direct and blunt response from Darren was in sharp contrast with Zavier. The later was in dire
desperation and at the loss of words on how he could persuade him further.
"Well. In fact, if you join the Sacred Wind Palace, for our protection, there will still be a condition for you
to conform upon. Once the Divine Lunar Sect invades us at any time, you will have to come and help
us no matter where you are. That is the sole condition,"
Zavier revealed with embarrassment.
"The Divine Lunar Sect?" at the mention of the sect, Darren asked with great interest.
"What kind of sect is the Divine Lunar Sect? Why are they coming after human warriors everywhere?"
Darren asked further, eager to learn more about the malevolent and contemptible sect.
"It seems that you have also faced people from the Divine Lunar Sect, haven't you?" Looking at
Darren's curious expression, Zavier smiled slightly.
"Yes, and I believe that they have left a mark on my body," Darren said, opening his chest and
revealing that cross mark for Zavier to see.
At the sight of the horrible mark, Zavier's face darkened at once. It was as if he had seen the devil face
to face as represented by the mark.
