Nobilis of War novel Chapter 1430

In the twinkling of an eye, a month had passed.

Boom! Boom!

Suddenly, an explosion sounded from within the cave. Streaks of terrifying sword intent shot out from the mouth of the cave, splitting the very earth into cracks.

Sensing this violent disturbance, Gilmer went to check out what happened. Was there a powerful warrior who came to attack Connor?

Gilmer was brimming with anxiety. Silently, he wondered who on earth dared leak their secret, thus attracting Connor's enemies. With a sinking feeling in his heart, he hurried to the cave.

However, upon arrival, he was surprised to find that the powerful sword intent had already dissipated, and the cave had fallen quiet.

"Darren, what happened?" Gilmer asked anxiously.

As though coming out of a trance, Darren opened his eyes, traces of sword light flashing within.

"I'm sorry. I might've involuntarily released a sword intent just now," Darren said apologetically.

It was just like he said. Just then, Darren had succeeded in comprehending the fourth move of the supreme sword skill. A resulting streak of sword intent shot out from his meridians, which was what caused the explosion.

"That sword intent was released by you?" Gilmer asked incredulously. The aura of the sword intent just now was so terrifying that he had thought that a great master of swordsmanship had come.

Yet Darren was only at the top level of the Star God Realm. Gilmer couldn't believe his ears. How could such a powerful sword intent have been released by Darren?

Darren nodded acquiescently, without uttering a word.

"Oh my God! Are the Defiant Masters truly this extraordinary? You are only at the Star God Realm!" Gilmer couldn't help but exclaim in astonishment and admiration.

"It's just that the method I am cultivating happens to be quite powerful," Darren explained calmly. Then, he abruptly changed topic. "By the way, sir, has Weber come back?"

"He came back yesterday," Gilmer answered.

"What—?" Darren frowned. He felt that something was wrong. If Weber had come back yesterday, why hadn't he been informed?

"Did Lord Starry Sword refuse our request?" Darren smiled bitterly. That was the only reasonable explanation.

Seeing the disappointment on Darren's face, Gilmer quickly waved his hand and said, "You've got it all wrong, Darren. Both Lord Starry Sword and Lord Feng have come with Weber, but..."

Gilmer paused hesitantly.

If both of them had come, then what was the problem?

"Tell me, what's wrong?" Darren asked, his brows furrowing anxiously.

"Both Lord Starry Sword and Lord Feng are in the middle of recuperating, so we decided not to inform you yet."

Darren was stunned at what he heard. Both Lord Starry Sword and Lord Feng were injured? How was that possible?! What kind of powerful master could inflict wounds on the two of them at the same time? Darren was at a loss for words.

This was too inconceivable. 'Had they been besieged by powerful aliens?' he thought bitterly.

"Let me have a look," he finally said after a while. With that, Darren flew out of the cave.

Soon, they landed in the hall. There, Darren found Weber sleeping on a deck chair, while Gatlin was preoccupied, cultivating with his eyes closed. The only other people present were a few senior elders at the end of the hall.

"Sir, have Lord Starry Sword and Lord Feng come out?" Darren asked one of the elders.

The elder shook his head. "They are still in seclusion. The two masters are both seriously injured. I guess it will take a few more days for them to fully recover."

"How did Lord Starry Sword and Lord Feng get injured, sir?" Darren finally asked Gilmer.

"I don't know either." Gilmer shrugged helplessly. "The two of them were already injured when they arrived. Then Lord Starry Sword entered his Starry Tower to heal his wounds, and Lord Feng went to his own small world to seclude himself from us. They said they would come out to talk to you, but only after a few days."

"I see," Darren said softly, giving him a slight nod. Then, hoping to find out more, he abruptly turned around and kicked Weber to wake him up.

"Darren, you don't know what I've been through," Weber said crankily. "I brought Lord Starry Sword here after days and nights of traveling without breaks. I'm exhausted. Please let me rest."

"Go sleep elsewhere. It's a shame to reveal your belly while sleeping," Darren snapped crossly.

The fat man frowned indignantly but eventually caved in. Reluctantly, he went to search for another place to sleep.

A few days later, two peerless figures appeared in the hall.

"Welcome, Lord Starry Sword and Lord Feng. We are deeply honored by your presence."

Gilmer immediately walked up to greet them with a warm smile. However, both Lord Starry Sword and Lord Feng ignored him coldly.
