Talented Martial Hero novel Chapter 123

"Babe, are you feeling better now?" Elsa asked as she rubbed Darren's back. She wondered what had happened in the sky.

"Elsa, what did you call me? Could you repeat it? Ha-ha..." As Darren was feeling better, he began teasing her.

"Come on! How can you make fun of me? I'm worried about you!" replied Elsa as she rested her head against Darren's shoulder.

"Okay, I know, I know. I'm sorry. Could you not call me babe? That sounds weird."

"Fine. Whatever you want!" Elsa smiled.

"Good girl!" Darren pulled Elsa closer and inhaled the sweet scent wafting from her hair. He was enjoying this romantic moment with her.

After two days, Darren found that he had almost completely recovered with the help of hundreds of healing pills.

The healing pills were very expensive. One pill would cost at least fifty ink stones. People might find it unbelievable that Darren had consumed hundreds of healing pills.

"It's done now."

Darren murmured before opening his eyes. A sword created from his internal force rushed out of his body. As the sword flew toward the sky, Darren's sword intent blew the clouds away.

"Aha! I can't believe how much the power of my sword intent has increased."

Darren felt as though he were stronger than before.

"Darren, what stage do you think you have reached now?" Elsa asked when she sensed his sword intent.

"I think I can defeat those who are at the eighth stage of the Mysterious Realm. Perhaps, even the ninth stage if I go all out." estimated Darren.

"Wow! Sweetheart, you're amazing! Despite being a beginner of the Mysterious Realm, you have made such rapid progress. Congratulations to you, genius!" Elsa jumped with joy like a little girl.

"Come on! You flatter me too much." Darren smiled at her.

"I have an excellent husband. Of course I'm happy," Elsa said without hesitation.

"Husband? Who's your husband?"

Elsa blushed and pouted prettily, "What's the difference? You'll be my husband sooner or later. Don't you want to be my husband?" Elsa asked with a demure smile.

"Yes, I do. Trust me. I'm ecstatic to be your husband. Elsa, there's no one here but us. Why don't we do something romantic?" Darren's heart beat faster as he asked Elsa.

"Sure. You're my fiance," replied Elsa. Her cheeks turned crimson, and her heart raced. After a moment's hesitation, she murmured, "But what if someone came?"

"I only wanted to hold a simple wedding ceremony here with you. Whoever comes here can witness this. What? Were you thinking about something else?" Darren smiled.

"Nonsense! I'm not." Elsa blushed again. "Who said that I'm going to marry you?"

"Well, why are you blushing? What are you thinking really? Huh? Ha-ha..."

"Nonsense! I'm not thinking about that either!"

"Thinking about what? Tell me. We're about to get married."

"I never said that I'd marry you. And, I'll kick your ass if you speak to me like that again."

Elsa became conscious when she understood Darren was teasing her. She threatened him playfully before chasing him.

They were running, laughing, and flirting.

Soon, they reached the entrance of the Lotus Holy Land.

"We should meet Steven. I have to pass the outer disciple election as soon as possible," Darren said seriously.

"You have nothing to worry about," Elsa replied with a smile.

"No, I'm not worried about myself. I'm concerned about my sister. I wonder if she's okay." Darren frowned.

"I'm sure that she is okay. You'll see her at the contest for her marriage." Elsa tried to comfort him.

Darren nodded and walked into the Lotus Holy Land with her.

Steven had already given them a token, and so it was easy for Darren and Elsa to pass through the gate and find out where Steven lived.

"Darren, I'm so glad to see you!"

Steven and Stephan were delighted to see Darren.

"Hey, guys. I'm happy to see you, too. But could you please tell me where I need to go to take the test for outer disciples? I'll come back and see you after that," inquired Darren.

"Since you're so eager, how about I take you there now?"

Steven then led Darren and Elsa to the location of the test for outer disciples.

As soon as they arrived, Darren overheard someone talking.
