Nobilis of War novel Chapter 206

Darren approached the old man who lay on the ground. Just when Darren was about to help the old man with his injuries, a strange aura suddenly emerged from behind him and went straight to Darren's head.

In a split second, he felt as though his soul was being torn apart.

"Huh?"

Darren's face grew serious. He raised his hand and deflected it.

"Ah!"

A scream came from behind him. As Darren turned around, he found that the boy had been blasted by his power into a big tree.

"Why does your soul have such strong power!?" Suddenly, the little boy's voice changed, sounding very much like an adult. He was totally astonished by the turn of events.

"Ah!" Suddenly he screamed in agony as a sharp pain shot throughout his body. He frantically scratched his head, rolling on the ground.

Darren felt goose bumps when he realized that if it weren't for the strange stone in his head, he would have been dead. The strange stone sensed that probing aura, deflected it back at the boy in the nick of time and saved his life.

"Who are you? I was nearly deceived by your dirty trick," Darren sneered at him.

Boom!

Darren suddenly felt a wave of dizziness again!

"Again?" Darren used his spiritual sense, and once again deflected the probing aura inside his head.

Now it was the old man on the ground who let out a scream.

"He has such powerful soul! Ah! It's so painful," he screamed in terror, writhing on the ground.

Darren walked up to the old man, kicked him in the stomach and shouted, "You better come clean about the dirty trick you played on me. How dare you attack me like that, you bastard!"

"Ha-ha-ha!" The old man let out a scream of laughter. "You are such powerful young man. We will have a taste of your soul one day. You just wait and see!"

Having said this, the old man sprayed a mouthful blood at Darren's body. His eyes went blank, and the aura emitted from his body vanished without a trace. It was as if his soul had disappeared completely.

"He died?" Darren was confused. Darren walked closer and took a look at him. The old man was indeed lifeless. He turned around and walked towards the boy, who still lay whining beside the tree.

Darren immediately emitted a powerful aura and pushed it against the boy. The power was so intense that the boy couldn't even manage to move a muscle. He could neither commit suicide nor run away, so Darren began to question him about his real identity.

"Tell me. Who the hell are you? If you don't tell me the truth, I will let you feel pain one hundred times more than what you felt earlier!" Darren shouted.

"Please, please don't kill me.

We are soul hunters come from the Soul Hunter Sect. We didn't know you were such powerful master. I am so sorry for the trouble. I'm begging you for mercy!" the boy stammered, shivering with fear. But Darren sensed that something was wrong. Although he looked like a little boy, his voice sounded too mature. He was not a child at all!

Once Darren forced him to tell the truth, he revealed the history of the Soul Hunter Sect.

The Soul Hunter Sect was an evil sect. They used evil skills to hunt other people's souls in order to improve their strength. Actually, this kind of power was a branch of the rule cultivation. And it was indeed strong and intense. The boy said they had used this kind of skill to hunt thousands of people's souls, including cultivators who reached the Wonder Realm. It was apparent that their evil skills were extremely powerful!

The souls they hunted were stored in a golden bead. Once the bead was full, they would present it to their master.

However, he didn't tell Darren about his master's whereabouts. Darren searched him and found two golden beads. One of them was full of souls, and the other was three-quarters full.

Darren placed the beads securely in his pocket, not caring so much about their usefulness to him.

"Sir, I have told you everything I know. Please let me go. My soul has been badly injured, and I can't use my skill anymore," the boy pleaded.

"Get lost!" Darren shouted menacingly.

After the boy expressed his gratitude to Darren several times, he dragged his broken legs and hobbled away.

When the boy had left, Darren remained where he was for a moment before he shadowed him stealthily. He would not just let go of an evil man like that!

But the boy was also very smart. Since he was afraid that Darren would follow him, he deliberately walked in a lesser known path to avoid being followed. After walking randomly in the jungle for a long time, he headed in another direction. After half a day had passed, he arrived at a mysterious cave.

Even though he had remained vigilant at all times, he did not detect Darren's presence at all!
