Talented Martial Hero novel Chapter 157

Darren struggled to remain conscious until Landon announced the test result. After that, he blacked out and collapsed on the ground.

With a surprised gasp, Diana flew forward and took him. She left the unconscious lad with Colin and asked him to find a doctor.

"Wait!"

A Holy Lord dashed forward and blocked Colin's way.

"This boy was covered in black scales and emitted an evil aura. He is suspicious. We must interrogate him!" The person blocking Colin's way was the Holy Lord of the Ice Holy Land.

At the same time, Landon guided other Holy Lords toward Colin and Darren.

"I agree with him. A person covered in black scales broke into the forbidden area that Scott was guarding the other day. I suspect that he has something to do with the fiend," Landon said flatly.

"Stop talking nonsense, you bastard!"

Diana cursed. The onlookers were shocked as they had never heard her scold people before.

"Why would my disciple get involved with the fiend? Don't you feel ashamed? How can you not know that Darren mastered the Dragon Clan's inheritance skill? Stop making a fool of yourself!" she continued coldly.

The Holy Lords were rendered speechless.

It dawned on them that Darren had displayed an Omnipotent Talent Skill. 'What he used is similar to the legendary Dragon Clan's inheritance skill.'

"Diana, don't get mad. We can't afford to make any mistakes when it comes to the fiend. So, I believe we should investigate that boy," the Holy Lord of the Void Holy Land mediated.

"Get the hell out of here!" Diana spat out slowly, "You'd better not test me. If you dare to take him away, Lotus Holy Land will become your enemy. And we will not show you any mercy."

A large lotus shadow rose behind Diana as she spoke.

The Holy Lords knew that the lotus shadow was a sign that Diana was furious. They looked at her, embarrassment written all over their faces.

They were aware that they had already gone too far by pressuring Diana to continue the tournament. If they took Darren against Diana's will, they knew that Diana would go to all lengths to stop them.

Landon laughed to break the tense atmosphere and changed the topic immediately. He said, "Forget it, Diana. Let's talk about taking over the magic spring from the three families." Even though Landon was powerful, he couldn't risk upsetting Diana more. After all, he didn't stand up for Lotus Holy Land when she turned to him for help.

Since Landon dropped the topic, the remaining Holy Lords didn't have the courage to press her on the issue regarding investigating Darren. Besides, Diana said that her disciple had learnt the Dragon Clan's inheritance skill, and they believed that explained why Darren had scales.

Diana snorted and recalled the lotus shadow. She motioned for Colin and Lino to take Darren and Belle, who were in a coma, out of the square.

...

In the blink of an eye, three months passed.

Belle had sat at Darren's bedside every day since she had woken up, waiting for him to regain consciousness.

"Mr. Colin, three months have passed. Why is he still in a coma? Didn't you say that he would get better soon?" she asked anxiously.

Colin often came by to check on Darren.

"Don't worry. Darren will be fine. He hasn't woken up yet as he suffered many injuries," he replied.

"I see," she said.

The instant Colin finished speaking, Darren let out an inaudible moan before slowly opening his eyes.

"Darren, you are awake!" Belle exclaimed with delight.
