In the dim light, a man in a black robe walked down the stairs.
Scar and the short man bowed to the man and said, "Nice to see you, Larkin."
"Oh, come on. You and I are like brothers. You don't have to bow." Larkin patted Scar's shoulder.
Darren glanced at Larkin and felt that Larkin was at least at the top level of the Primary God Realm!
The top level of the Primary God Realm was higher than the upper-level of the Primary God Realm. After the Primary God Realm, the next level was the Domain God Realm.
There were four main realms: the Primary God Realm, the Domain God Realm, the Star God Realm, and the Celestial God Realm. Breaking through to a higher realm was an extremely arduous task. However, when a cultivator broke through to a new realm, his or her strength would significantly increase.
Darren was only at the middle-level of the Primary God Realm. It was already an incredible thing for him to kill an upper-level primary god. However, it would be unimaginable for him to win a fight against a primary god at the top level.
"Larkin, here's the thing. This guy is about to enter the Starry Sword Region. He has killed more than ten masters from our mountain. Can you help me kill him?" Scar asked.
"Yeah, Larkin. You're the probationary guard of the Cloud Forest Sect. Even if the guards of the Starry Sword Region found out what you've done, they wouldn't dare to do anything to you. After all, this guy is not a disciple yet," the short man said.
The Cloud Forest Sect was one of the orthodox sects of the Blood Cloud Region.
"No matter who he says he is, if he lays a hand on my people, I will destroy him." Larkin's sharp eyes seemed to pierce through Darren.
"Ha-ha! Wow, your love for your people is really moving," Scar said with joy. Larkin was a homeless orphan. When he was just a little boy, the villagers from the mountains found him wandering aimlessly. Soon, they adopted him and raised him as their own. He was a talented young man. His strength improved rapidly in a short time, so the Cloud Forest Sect took an interest in him. Later on, they recruited him to become a probationary guard.
Larkin then walked towards Darren.
'The middle-level of the Primary God Realm?'
Larkin probed for Darren's cultivation base and frowned.
He couldn't believe that a middle-level primary god could single-handedly kill more than a dozen upper-level primary gods.
"Hey, what's your name?" Larkin suddenly asked Darren.
"It's none of your business," Darren replied coldly.
"Ha-ha! You're a tough guy. I'm impressed. I think you have potential, so I want to give you a chance to live."
Scar and the short man looked at each other in confusion.
"Larkin, how can you spare him? He killed so many of our people."
"Don't worry. I have a plan." Upon hearing this, Scar shut his mouth.
Darren did not understand what Larkin meant, so he asked, "What do you want, huh? Do you want me to work for you?"
"Ha-ha, you're a clever young man. But I'm not asking you to work for me. I want you to join our Cloud Forest Sect," Larkin said.
"What?!" Scar and the short man's face changed dramatically at the same time.
"Larkin! Why don't you kill him? And why are you offering him such privileges? Is this how you repay the kindness that our villagers have given you?" Scar shouted in fury.
Whoosh!
Suddenly, a burst of malicious aura spread out. Scar and the short man were forced to take a few steps back.
"Shut up. The death of these people is not important. Understood? What matters is that the Cloud Forest Sect needs young talents!"
