Talented Martial Hero novel Chapter 803

"What a strong aura of the fiend!"

Darren frowned when he felt that the evil spirit inside the cave was stronger than before.

It didn't take long for Darren and Finley to reach deep inside the cave.

To Darren's astonishment, the cave was empty. It had been full of black beetles as well as the black mutants before.

"What has happened there? Where are those creatures now?" Darren was puzzled.

Finley frowned and glanced around as a sense of foreboding filled him.

"Hurry up! We need to leave as soon as we find the Fiendish Root," Finley said as anxiety coursed through him.

Squeak. Squeak. Squeak.

The sound of crunching bones echoed through the cave.

"What are you guys looking for? Do you need my help?"

Darren and Finley were astonished when they heard the voice.

"Who are you?"

they asked, but there was no reply. Gradually, a short figure walked out from a narrow crack.

Bang.

When the figure tripped over a stone, the nervousness Darren and Finley had felt, turned to surprise.

Both Darren and Finley glanced at each other.

"Fuck, I fell over a stone? Just get out of my way!"

The figure stood and punched the stone on the ground.

That ordinary stone was not hurt at all. Instead, the little figure's fist began to bleed.

Darren and Finley were rendered speechless.

How weak was the creature if it couldn't even break a stone?

"Ahem, as I haven't eaten much recently, my strength has reduced significantly. I apologize for my outburst, though."

When the figure stepped out of the darkness, Darren and Finley saw that it was a monkey.

As soon as the monkey neared them, Darren's and Finley's hearts trembled as if they had received an electric shock.

However, the monkey hadn't put any pressure on Darren and Finley. On the contrary, it gave off a natural aura that intimidated other creatures.

"Darren, we must be careful. This monkey scares me. And the fear I feel is coming from the depths of my soul." Finley sent a secret message to Darren.

"I feel the same," Darren replied.

"We came here in search of a kind of herb. If something we did made you uncomfortable, please forgive us, sir." Darren was the first to speak.

"Well, you don't need to be so formal and apologetic. You can just call me bro.

Now, come and sit here."

The monkey was as polite as the farmer from the human race.

Both Darren and Finley felt their blood freeze when the monkey behaved so calmly and friendly.

"No, thanks. We just need to find the Fiendish Root, and then we'll leave. We don't want to bother you, bro." Finley waved his hand as he tried to offer an explanation that wouldn't offend the creature.

"Oh, are you too important to sit with me?" The monkey curled his lips.

"No, it's not like that at all! You seemed busy when we entered the cave, and we didn't want to bother you."

The monkey smiled and said, "I've just stewed some pork bones. Come. Let's eat together."

On a stone table stood a large stone pot with boiling water. It was full of fresh meat and bones as well.

Darren's brows furrowed at the sight.

Now he knew why they hadn't seen all those black beetles and black mutants. They were in this pot!

Darren and Finley stood still as trepidation filled them. They had no intention of drinking that soup.

"If you two keep acting like this, I will get very mad."

The monkey narrowed his eyes as he glared at Darren and Finley. He didn't have enough food for himself, and yet, he had invited these two to share his meal out of kindness. But they seemed to behave disrespectfully.

"You've seen my temper before. I could not forgive that tiny stone. And now you are going to refuse my kindness? You guys are smart, and you must know what you are going to face if you insist on continuing like this, huh?" The monkey raised his bleeding fist and shook it at them.

"Let's just leave as quickly as we can." Finley sent a message to Darren.

This was the first time that Finley had taken the initiative to ask for a retreat.
