Talented Martial Hero novel Chapter 964

The ancient humans were stunned when they saw Darren flee. They had expected him to fight and save them. Instead, their only savior had chosen to run away!

"My Lord, please don't run away. Help us!" Someone chased Darren, caught his leg, and begged.

"Ahem, I can't save you. Ask everyone to escape quickly!"

Darren kicked him away and continued to run. Right from the time he first saw a ferocious ape, Darren had known that he didn't have the skill to fight such ancient creatures. Now that a ferocious ape had come to the periphery of this tribe, it made no sense to risk his life trying to kill it. Even though the ape was not big, its fierce aura had the power of the Holy Realm! What strength did Darren have in comparison? He would be courting death if he decided to confront the ape!

Besides, a young man sat on the ape's shoulder, and he did not appear to be an ordinary man.

Darren would not risk his life.

When Darren returned to the thatched hut, he told Hailey what he saw, and urged her to leave as well.

Boom!

Just as Darren and Hailey were about to escape, a violent force broke the hut. The force was so intense that it threw Darren and Hailey outside as well.

The patriarch pointed at Darren and Hailey and shouted, "Yahya, that's our lord. He will protect us. If you want to kill us, you'll have to face him first!"

Darren's face turned pale. 'The ancient human is not silly at all. He is cunning enough to find a way to force me to fight their enemy, ' he surmised.

The young man on the ape's shoulder glared at Darren ferociously and then moved his gaze to Hailey. From then on, his eyes seemed to be glued on Hailey.

"Young man, I'm not their lord. They kidnapped me. Could you let us go?" Darren explained how he and Hailey came to be at the village.

The young man was stunned for a second. Then he tore his gaze from Hailey and smiled at Darren. The spite and deviousness in the young man's smile made Darren shudder.

"None of that matters. Since you're with them, I'll kill you too!" the young man declared as he released an insanely powerful killing intent.

The patriarch summoned his courage and roared, "Yahya, don't forget that you are a part of the village. Do you really have the heart to kill us?"

"Fuck off!"

The young man's face suddenly turned fierce. His roar carried such power that it created ripples in the air. When one shockwave hit the patriarch, he spat blood.

"Did you regard my parents as part of the village when you killed them?

Did you recognize me as part of the village when you beat me and expelled me? Now, you are going to die. How dare you say something like that to me with the hopes that I will be merciful?

The more you assert your authority, the more I want to torture you. Ha-ha,"

the young man, Yahya Zang, bellowed crazily.

"Yahya, when the plague arrived, it was the witcher who directed us to sacrifice your parents for the ceremony. Why do you blame us? If we hadn't taken such drastic steps, all the villagers would have died, including you. For the safety of our whole clan, we had no choice but to listen to the witcher," the patriarch bowed his head as he explained.

"You old bastard! How dare you defend yourself? You coveted the beast bones my family had collected! The tale about the plague and witcher is just your pretext."

"I can't force you to believe me. But if you want to blame someone for your parents' death, the chief culprit should not be us. It's the witcher. Why are you here to kill us? Even if you kill everyone in the village, you won't avenge your parents."

It had to be said that the patriarch was indeed a little sly. Seeing that he couldn't convince the young man, he directed his attention to the witcher.

Bang!

A round object rolled to the patriarch's feet.
