Talented Martial Hero novel Chapter 419

All of a sudden, Darren lost control of the Ancient Void Battlefield. There was no way of getting access to it anymore, as he couldn't even feel the existence of the Ancient Void Battlefield anymore, let alone get to it.

He was floating in the sky with dazed eyes reflecting the bewilderment he felt. He still hadn't fully registered what the hell just happened. Meanwhile, the other human grand warriors flew over to stand beside him.

"Young man, was it a small space that you used just now?" one of the three-star grand warriors asked him in an impressed tone.

"Oh, it's you! What a nice coincidence!" Before Darren could process what was happening, much less give a reply, one middle-aged man interrupted them. He wiped away the blood and shook off the dust that had settled on his body, and then flew even closer to Darren. He leaned in, bringing their faces in closer proximity.

"And you are?" Darren asked.

"I am the sect master of the Violet Phoenix Sect, Jacob. You haven't met me before, but I have seen your performance that day when you were in the competition," the middle-aged man dressed in white answered with a smile on his face. His voice was gentle and soothing.

"Oh, nice to meet you, sir," Darren greeted him, cupping his hands while lightly bowing to him out of respect.

"Nice to meet you, too, young man." Jacob nodded his head, then added, "I can't believe you are this talented and powerful at such a young age! You even thought of a way to fight the winged-tiger in his frantic state. We are quite lucky to have you on our side."

"Thank you, sir. I appreciate that." Darren just smiled at Jacob in a polite way.

"You're simply lucky to still be alive. If the winged-tiger hadn't been so fully focused on killing the Water Kylin, you wouldn't have stood the slightest chance to open the small space at all. Are you really feeling such pride about what you just did?" Hailey interjected in a biting tone. The harsh look on her face was stone cold. Even though she was standing far away from them, her words easily carried across the distance.

What she had said was too honest and harsh, but she had a point. If the winged-tiger's target had been Darren, he wouldn't have had the chance to even go near the winged-tiger before he was killed. What he did was an extremely dangerous move, at least in Hailey's opinion. That was why she didn't think he should be praised, but instead scolded for his reckless actions. And that was what she did.

"So what? The Water Kylin is my friend and brother. And he was in danger. Do you really think that I wouldn't save him just because I'm fearing for my own life, huh?" Darren responded in a calm tone. He disagreed with what she was saying, as it really didn't matter in the grand scheme of things. After saying what he thought, he flew towards the ground before anyone could give a reply. It was essentially a signal that he was ignoring them all.
