"Let's go! We should not make Sect Master wait," Elder Fire said and began to lead the way with Elder Wind.
Darryl nodded and trailed behind them. Along the way, they bumped into many disciples patrolling the area. Darryl could tell that the deeper they went into the building, the more powerful the disciples were. The entire Hidden Hero Sect was heavily guarded.
Finally, they reached a bright and spacious hall. Darryl was struck speechless by what he saw. There were a few people seated inside the hall. Amongst them were two elders dressed in the same black robe as Elder Wind. Their hair and beards were white, and they both seemed to be very powerful.
There was a throne further in the hall. A beautiful woman dressed in a silk dress sat on the throne. Her figure was a ten, and her exquisite features were indescribably alluring. To top it off, she had a very powerful aura. She was Agatha Lange, the sect master of the Hidden Hero Sect. At that moment, Agatha could sense the unparalleled shock that Darryl was feeling.
'That woman has surpassed Heaven Ascension and reached the Elevation level, but why did she choose to stay in the Nine Mainland instead of shattering the void?' Darryl thought.
Then, he noticed Veron, who was standing next to Agatha. A jolt went through his body, and understanding suddenly dawned on him. 'That's the spoiled brat from Donghai City! Ah, so she's the sect master's eldest daughter. No wonder she could still act so cockily after losing to me.'
Veron was looking at Darryl cockily. 'Well, well, well. It seems like Darryl's not that strong after all.' Fury rose from her stomach when she recalled how Darryl touched her.
Everyone's gaze gathered on Darryl. All the elders were stunned to discover that Darryl had a fairy soul, but he was only around 30 years old. Was he from the Godly Region?
Some of the elders were looking at him with hostility in their eyes. Their ancestor was a subordinate of the Yellow Emperor, who had an irreparable grudge toward the Godly Region.
Agath frowned as she sized Darryl up.
Darryl gulped when he made brief eye contact with Agatha. 'So that is the sect master of the Hidden Hero Sect. She is gorgeous.'
"Darryl, do you know why I have summoned you here?" Agatha asked. Her voice was not loud, but still, it carried across the hall.
Darryl took a deep breath, glanced at Veron, and smiled bitterly. "Your Excellency, this must be about the misunderstanding between Miss Veron and me."
"A misunderstanding? I think not! You used your power to pick on me and… and humiliate me!" Veron shouted. Then, she looped her arms around Agatha's and said, "Mother, there's no use wasting our time with him. Let's just kill that scoundrel!"
