As he ran into the courtyard, Darren easily swept off any creature that stood in his way. As a result, many of the subordinates who had reached the seventh or eighth stage of the Spirit Realm had fallen to his sword.
"Who the hell is this savage boy? How is he so powerful while only at the Spirit Realm?" The two veterans at the fifth stage of the Mysterious Realm stood aside, stupefied.
"How imprudent. Let me cut his head down." One of the veterans mounted a charge directly against Darren.
At that time, Darren seemed to be completely immersed in slaughtering—turning around, he easily wielded his sword toward the attacker without hesitation.
Halfway through the dash, the man moved back instantaneously—he felt the dangerous hint of death just from Darren's movement.
Soon, the noises attracted plenty of curious spectators around them.
"I'm afraid that this kid, Joseph, just invited big trouble. A young man at the Spirit Realm who managed to slaughter his subordinates like he was butchering animals… he must have some powerful background."
"Did you see how he just forced a man at the fifth stage of the Mysterious Realm back by wielding his sword only once? Is he even human?"
...
Meanwhile, Joseph Wu who was as stout as he ever was, yelled from upstairs, "I can't stand this perpetual noise any longer. All these useless losers, halve their resources for this month, hmph."
"Don't be mad, my lord. I will help you hold her legs to keep her from moving." Nathan Chen walked over to ingratiate himself with his master.
"Ha, little beauty, your sweetheart is coming." At the same time, Joseph threw himself in the same direction impatiently.
Shoot!
Blood spewed out from Elsa's mouth and onto the two people with a faint trace of sword intent.
Because her mind was still rather fuzzy, she could only forcefully control the sword intent inside her body using her instincts. Inside her navel, the sword core was so bleak that it was on the edge of shattering into pieces.
"Ouch!" Because Elsa was in his reach, Nathan was going to press Elsa's torso when the sword intent pierced through his ear.
"Damn it…" he cursed. Grabbing Elsa's sleeve, he tore her clothes into pieces.
"Tsk tsk… so beautiful and seductive. Enjoy, my lord."
Nathan's smile was maliciously dark.
"Ha! I can't wait any longer. Hold her tight for me!"
As Joseph lowered his fat torso, his hands stretched toward Elsa.
Bang!
The instant Joseph's hand barely touched her, an unparalleled sword light flashed and the whole floor caved in with a loud crash. A figure appeared through the flash and soared toward the sky, holding Elsa in his arms.
Immersed in the darkness of helplessness, Elsa suddenly felt a surge of warmth. The familiar shell made her brim with tears.
"Bastard… bastard!"
Crawling out of the ruins, Joseph couldn't help but curse when he saw Darren in the air.
"Kill him!"
As Joseph clamored, Darren's silhouette moved all of a sudden, turning into a shadow firing straight at him.
"Ah!"
Joseph's crotch began shedding blood profusely and he cried out in pain helplessly.
At that moment, no one dared breathe.
"He dared to cut off Joseph's…that's his end. He's going to die today."
"He's too imprudent. He should've fled as soon as he saved the girl… what a pity that he's going to die so soon."
Soon after, Nathan also managed to free himself from the ruins. Upon witnessing the scene, he immediately cried out, "Go find Manager Wu, tell him that something terrible has happened…my lord has been maimed."
Looking at Nathan, the people around him burst into laughter.
"Little bastard… you're so dead. Do you know who he is? How dare you harm the grandson of Manager Wu?" Trembling with fear, Nathan roared.
"Schwa!"
In one swing of the sword, blood spewed from Nathan's neck and his head dropped to the floor in an instant.
Darren's face turned grim. Looking at the fragile, weak lady in his arms, he felt an irresistible urge to kill.
"Kid, you'd better consider your actions more carefully. If you killed me, neither of you would have a chance to live another day."
Covering his crotch with his hands, Joseph had a face as white as a ghost's.
