"Even though that kid was rather powerful, he still got defeated by the alliance leader in the end, no?"
"That's right! He's just an unknown person. Why is the alliance leader looking for him?"
The audience was in a heated discussion. They wore disdainful looks on their faces.
Melody bit her lips and walked down the battle stage quickly. Her beautiful face looked very anxious and complicated. She vowed to look for Darryl! It turned out that the person had the White Lily Cold Flame. She was confident that the person was her idol, Darryl. He was the only person in the world who had the White Lily Cold Flame.
Melody's heart quivered. If her opponent were Darryl, then he must have allowed her to win the tournament. He was the peerless hero she admired, yet she called him a kid…
Melody's guess was correct. Darryl did let her win. He had thought about using the White Lily Cold Flame at the last round. He had summoned the flame, but he gave up in the nick of time.
Otherwise, Melody would have been seriously injured and became unconscious.
"Get out of the way, get out—" Melody grew anxious. She pushed past the crowd and chased in the direction where Darryl had left.
Err…
Everyone there was stunned to see that. They all followed Melody subconsciously.
At the same time, on the road somewhere a few miles away from the valley.
"Darren."
Lillian and Darryl walked side by side. Lillian felt indebted to Darryl when she recalled the event earlier. "Thank you for standing up for me. But you need to be careful. The Thunder Mercenary Group might seek their revenge in the future."
Lillian admired Darryl. "I did not expect that you are so powerful. You defeated Shaun easily, and you were able to fight against Melody for so long. Who is your master?"
'Master?'
Darryl's eyes flickered in sorrow when he heard the word. He smiled and said, "My master is no longer alive."
Darryl had two masters in his lifetime. They were the Sword Devil, Ford South, and Ghost Valley Sage. It was a pity that the two of them were no longer around. One of them died tragically, and the other passed away.
"I am sorry to hear that!"
Lillian was a smart woman. She felt embarrassed to bring up Darryl's painful past. "I shouldn't have brought it up."
Darryl smiled and shook his head. He was just about to speak when suddenly, a voice came from behind him.
"Two of you, stop!" The voice was pleasant to the ear. It was filled with excitement.
Darryl turned around and frowned.
