Talented Martial Hero novel Chapter 442

After a period of flight, he landed in the palaces of the Violet Phoenix Sect. The same familiar view greeted his eyes, and the same comfortable scent lingered through his nostrils. However, there was something unusual with the ambiance of the palace. Darren wondered what might be wrong, but dismissed the idea shortly.

"Stop! Who are you?" snapped a disciple of the Violet Phoenix Sect the moment he saw Darren.

"Go and tell your sect leader that Darren has something important to tell him," facing the disciple, Darren said calmly.

"Ah, you are Darren!" The disciple obviously had heard of Darren's name before. Immediately, he had a change of expression and treated Darren with respect. Bowing down, he said, "Sir, just wait a moment, please! I will inform the leaders of your arrival."

Leaving Darren behind, the disciple scampered quickly into the hall. Soon enough, a figure darted over and welcomed Darren.

"I am surprised to see you here, Darren! I am so glad to see you well and safe!"

It was Elder Herman. His face was beaming, and he was sincerely happy to see the young warrior.

Amidst their exchange of greetings, he recalled that day when the twenty three-star grand warriors withdrew. All of them were severely injured, almost to death. Later, many elders told him that Darren and his other pals rescued them.

"Elder Herman. Can you take me to see your sect leader?" Darren explained the reason for his visit and asked the elder if he could help him out.

"You want to see Master Jacob?" Elder Herman hesitated for a while and said, "Come along with me!"

Judging from the expression on the elder's face, Darren felt something was not right, but he did not ask Elder Herman right away.

Soon, the elder took Darren to the main hall, but to Darren's dismay, Jacob was not at the hall. Instead, on the seat of power, there sat an old man in a red robe.

"Sir, this is Darren. He wants to see the sect leader." Elder Herman introduced Darren to the man in a red robe, bowing his head in reverence.

The old man shifted his gaze towards Darren, shook his head, and slowly said, "I'm afraid we can't give you the pleasure of doing that. After the battle, the sect leader and the other grand warriors are all severely injured, still needing a long time to heal. They can't be interrupted at the moment. So, you will have to wait at least three months before you can see the sect leader."

Realizing the situation, Darren's brow wrinkled over the man's thorny reasons.

"Well, it seems that I have to say goodbye if that's the case." Now that the man in a red robe made it clear that it was impossible to ask the three-star grand warriors to help him, Darren assumed that there was no need for him to stay.
