Darren had never heard of the Life Forbidden Zone, which was why he wasn't about to look for it without having any clues as to where it might be. Instead, he went in search of cities he could ask about it in.
After ten days of flying, Darren came across more than ten cities and collected a lot of useful information. He also heard a lot about the Life Forbidden Zone.
It appeared that the Life Forbidden Zone had always existed in this sinful land. In fact, some believed it was there before this sinful land was even formed, a forbidden zone from the Ancient Age.
It was said to be tremendously terrifying. No one that ever went there had returned in many years. They were believed to have all died there.
There were so many rumors surrounding the place. One claimed that someone had seen a human-shaped creature there, with blood red hair that covered his entire body. One look from that creature and whoever it was it looked at would explode and turn into blood mist.
Recently, the rumors about the forbidden zone had become so widespread everywhere. There were heated debates about it going on in all the cities Darren had visited.
The debates were due to a master claiming he'd seen a human figure near the Life Forbidden Zone a few days ago. Right after that, the Life Forbidden Zone had started to collapse, as if it was the end of the world. The news had made everyone in the cities uneasy upon hearing it. They were convinced that something had escaped the Forbidden Life Zone and was now out to kill them.
In addition to the Life Forbidden Zone's information, Darren had also learned more about the five major forces, including the location of these forces.
Darren stopped at one restaurant in a city and sat down.
He wasn't in a hurry to go to the forbidden zone. After all, if it was as dangerous as the rumors claimed, it wouldn't be much of a good idea to go there so early. But if the place wasn't that dangerous at all, that meant it wouldn't be a fruitful trip to go there. So, he didn't need to rush anything.
'If I go to the Life Forbidden Zone, I will definitely meet people from the five major forces. I mustn't be recognized by those escaped bastards!' His goal was to fly under their radar.
"Everyone fuck off out of here! I've reserved the whole restaurant!"
Darren was leisurely drinking his tea when several strong men in armor rushed into the restaurant. They scared a group of people away in their wake.
"What are you doing? What's wrong with you? Why did you drive away all of our guests?"
The manager of the restaurant asked anxiously as many customers had left without paying.
"Shut up! All of you get out of here. Our young master has reserved the whole place," several hefty men yelled at the customers, forcing most of them to get out of the room, but Darren didn't move an inch.
"Humph!" The manager of the restaurant harrumphed.
"What you did to my customers will make them not want to come back in the future. You're ruining my business!" the manager of the restaurant growled.
"Do you want to die? Who do you think we are? How dare you speak like that to the Governor's Office?" The strong man glared at the manager and grabbed his collar.
"Let go of me!" The manager slapped at the man's arm. "So what? Should I be scared of the Governor's Office? I am running a restaurant here. Do you really think I don't have any connections? I warn you, if you don't get out of my restaurant now, you will be dead once Mr. Ke arrives!"
It was true. For a restaurant such as this to run here, he had to have connections. Otherwise, it would have been taken down a long time ago.
The person the manger just mentioned had more power than the Governor, so why would he cower in fear?
"Ah, the restaurant is owned by Mr. Ke." The strong man's expressions turned back to normal. "Sir, our young master has just received an invitation letter from the Dragon Chasing Sect, so he is planning to invite his family and friends to have a party here to celebrate. Please make the arrangement as soon as possible."
"Really?" The manager was stunned for a moment, but then he burst into laughter. "So the young master joined the Dragon Chasing Sect? Congratulations to him! It's a great honor to celebrate. I'm sorry for being rude. Please give my apologies to your young master. Guys, let's get this restaurant ready for the party. The young master's celebration will be on us today."
"Sir, you are too generous. I will definitely make sure our young master knows of it." The strong men laughed out loud among themselves. The invitation letter from the Dragon Chasing Sect was enough to help the manager change his attitude towards them.
The Dragon Chasing Sect was one of the five major forces.
The young master of the Governor's Office had received the invitation from the Dragon Chasing Sect, which meant he would be their disciple in the future. Even Mr. Ke wouldn't mess with him. That was why the manager had changed tacks, hoping to make the young master happy.
Darren had kept on sipping his tea as they talked, having no intention of leaving.
"What are you doing? Why are you still here? Are you deaf? Get out of here, right now!"
