Talented Martial Hero novel Chapter 465

"Be quiet!"

the elder with the strongest aura yelled. He had been sitting cross-legged alongside the others.

"Elder Quentin, I doubt the man's identity. I asked Mortimer to check him, but the man is resisting!" Judah explained as he stepped forward.

Elder Quentin was startled by the allegations. He glanced at Darren before releasing his strong Spirit Power to examine Darren's soul.

Checking a person's soul was different from attacking his soul. Thus, the strange stone in Darren's head wouldn't strike back.

After only one scan, sweat trickled down Darren's forehead. The force was so intense that he almost fell to his knees.

"I didn't find anything abnormal. Don't cause trouble while the young master is cultivating," Elder Quentin concluded after checking Darren's soul. He had complete faith in his Spirit Power.

"But the man killed Bradley. When I probed Bradley's body, I sensed an aura of sword intent. I believe that he is a spy!"

Although most of the disciples of the Red Inferno Sect were rule cultivators, they also had powerful martial artists to guard the sect. There were a few swordsmen among them. However, since Kaleb had entered rule cultivation in his childhood, he showed no talents as a martial artist. He couldn't release sword intent. Considering this, the situation was worth investigating.

Besides, Judah had always been suspicious of Darren. With that, he became more insistent that Darren should be checked.

"What do you mean?" the powerful elder named Quentin asked. Judah's explanation had confused him. He was also annoyed as he didn't care much about this internal bickering. What really mattered to him now was the young master's breakthrough. If the young master succeeded, then Elder Quentin would earn appreciation and rewards.

"This..." Judah was stunned speechless. Then he communicated with Mortimer using his spiritual sense. "Mortimer, check him. It would help if we could show that Kaleb is a spy."

"But if we cannot prove your suspicions, then Elder Quentin will believe that we are deliberately making trouble!" Mortimer hesitated.

"You don't care that we have a spy amongst us? Why don't you believe me? You are driving me mad!" Judah's voice was laced with fury.

"Well. Alas!" Mortimer agreed. As they were good friends, Mortimer couldn't defy Judah, or he would risk offending his friend.

With no other alternatives, Mortimer summoned his Spirit Power in his eyes as he activated the Supreme Vision Rule. Then, he glared at Darren.

Whistle!

Mortimer was hurt by a spiritual attack from Darren.

"Why do you insist on checking on me? What do you mean by this? I have assisted the young master for so many years. Now that he is cultivating in the poor, you intend to get rid of me. Huh? Are you going to rise in rebellion?"

Darren bellowed. His expression reflected the indignation and anger that he felt at the intrusion. Although the spiritual attack he had released wasn't very strong, it was powerful enough to have an impact on Mortimer. If he didn't defend against the attack, Mortimer would risk injury to his soul.

Darren's shouting and the spiritual attack forced Mortimer to stop. At this point, many powerful rule cultivators noticed the dispute between the four men. They furrowed their eyebrows as they shifted their focus to Darren and the other three quarreling men.

"What are you doing? Who permitted this man to enter? Very soon, the Spirit Power will be released from the inside. If you disturb us again, the repercussions will be dreadful! You'd better leave now!"

"How dare you seek favor when the young master is unavailable due to his cultivation? Don't do all this here. You bastards, don't disturb me!"

Several powerful rule cultivators growled at Judah and Kaleb. This disregard for Judah's and Kaleb's close relationship with the young master was embarrassing for both men.

Sure enough, except for the five elders present, Judah showed no fear of the other overmatches. After all, he was also an overmatch himself.

"Mortimer, check him! If nothing is wrong, I will admit my error and ask for punishment before the young master!" Judah roared. Enraged by the rule cultivators' threats, his eyes widened.

"Okay. I trust you. At worst, I will be scolded by the young master. Humph!" Mortimer declared. Hearing the rule cultivators' impertinent remarks toward his friend, he also became furious. Despite the threats, he released his Spiritual Power to scan Darren with.

Darren frowned and released another spiritual attack. However, Judah, who stood beside Mortimer, blocked it.

Darren quivered as his soul had been exposed to Mortimer.

"Got you, you spy! Who are you?"

Mortimer questioned when he saw Darren's real soul, not the one he was disguising himself with.
