Talented Martial Hero novel Chapter 270

"A loser? How dare you call him that?" Violet exclaimed. "Roger, you are out of your mind," she added. Her face turned sullen, and she spoke faster. "Don't you know that he is Mr. Chad Lou's most prominent disciple? If I were you, I'd watch my language."

"Hey, Violet, don't bluff. I have never heard of that name. If you think that you can invent people randomly and try to frighten me, you are wrong. You will regret this!" Roger retorted. Roger had always been overly suspicious and unbelievably conceited. And in this case, his distrust and arrogance invited trouble. On hearing this conversation, Darren narrowed his eyes as he glared at Roger. His indifferent expression spoke louder than any words.

"Miss Wang, thank you for speaking up for me. But, I believe you can't talk sense into this gentleman, no matter how hard you try. I am sorry. Since he wants to kill me, then why don't we let him try? Let's see what he can do." Darren patted Violet gently on her back to reassure her. However, his expression was as cold as ice as he stared at Roger.

Violet had been passing by when she saw the fight. Her sense of justice compelled her to stop and observe. She was a girl who would always protect those in need. As she stood watching the fight, Violet learned that someone was after Darren. She was so impressed by Darren when they were in the Ancient Void Battlefield that she couldn't help standing up for him.

After Darren left the Ancient Void Battlefield, news spread everywhere—in and outside of Talent City. The disciples of the many grand warriors told everyone far and wide that the grand warrior, Chad Lou, had called Darren his most prominent disciple. The news also reached Violet.

Though Violet supported Darren, she was not a reckless fool. She knew that she was no match for Roger, the genius who ranked eighteenth on the Talent Roll. Therefore, she mentioned Chad with the hopes that her name-dropping would intimidate Roger instead of infuriating him. It all depended on whether Roger was a total idiot or not.

Unfortunately, Roger was a bigger moron than she had imagined. Not only had he never heard of Chad, but he also hurled abuses at Chad openly. Roger's ignorance left Violet speechless. To prevent Roger from getting into more trouble, Violet prompted him by saying, "Roger, you don't mean to insult Mr. Lou. Apologize now if you ever want to enter the Raksa Sea."

"The Raksa Sea? You mean... Oh no! Mr. Lou is a grand warrior?" Roger cried. Now, he realized what a stupid thing he had done. A loose tongue was a source of evil, wasn't it? Roger forced a smile.

"Oh, for heaven's sake. Use your mind!" The name-dropping seemed effective, so Violet doubled her efforts. She smiled contemptuously and embellished her story. "Well, do you know what Darren calls Mr. Lou? He calls him 'Uncle Chad'. You don't want to mess with Mr. Lou's 'dear nephew Darren, ' do you? I wouldn't. I bet the man who is supporting you also wouldn't. Think carefully before speaking!"

Finally, Roger backed down. If Chad was a grand warrior, then he'd better accept Violet's advice and leave Darren alone. It was highly unlikely that Violet would lie about this because it was too great a lie to tell.

"Great. Young lad, you've found a powerful backer," Roger said as he turned to Darren. "I will let you go this time. But, if I find out that all this is a lie—there is no grand warrior, no Uncle Chad—I will flay you and turn your skin into shoes." After threatening Darren, Roger turned and flew away.
