Chapter 52 Returning To The Acqua City (Part One)

While they were on their way to the Acqua City, the three people showed great respect to Darren. Being treated with utmost politeness, Darren felt a little strange. But he knew it was just one of the natural laws: respect is awarded to the best of the best.

They moved forward as quickly as time flew. Fourteen hours later, they finally caught a glimpse of the dim outline of the Acqua City.

"Captain Toby, I have something that I must deal with in the Acqua City. Do you mind if I take my leave now and just meet you in the Chu Clan tomorrow?"

Darren asked after the moment they arrived at the gate of the Acqua City.

"We are at your disposal," Toby answered politely, "but..." He wanted to say something, but decided to hold it back as he felt some kind of embarrassment.

Seeing that Toby hesitated in speaking, Darren flashed him a tiny smile and said, "You don't have to worry, just tell me what you want to say."

He recalled that when he was a child, he had seen the mighty captain along with the crowd and that he envied his majestic authority. But now the captain had humbled himself in front of him. Mixed emotions stirred up in Darren's heart.

Hearing Darren's words, Toby couldn't help but feel a bit awkward but he replied with honesty, "Would you mind if I introduce you as the guest of the Governor's Office in the election campaign? It would definitely bring the Governor's Office great honor to have you as our guest."

Darren wasn't surprised that Toby would put forward a serious matter, but it turned out to be nothing more than a simple request. He agreed without hesitation.

"Thank you so much. We look forward to seeing you tomorrow, Sir," Dale gave him his thanks and bade him goodbye

before he looked at Alison who was rooted t

e!" Ina begged.

"Alas! You are really quite a stubborn girl. You have to promise me that after this, you're going to work hard in your cultivation and would no longer kill anyone else unless you have to, all right?" the old man finally agreed but with a simple request.

Hearing this, the girl responded sincerely, "All right."

Their entire conversation was heard by Darren, and the old man also noticed that Darren was eavesdropping. A gleam of sharp light shot out from his eyes, dashing towards Darren with great power.

"What the...? The light is infused with great spiritual power," Darren murmured to himself while frowning.

The moment he sensed the great power, he channeled his own spiritual power in preparation for a fight. He shot a counter-attack to guard himself!

The two forces clashed against each other and it was crystal clear to see which was mightier. The old man's face turned pale as he stumbled back a few steps. He was obviously at a disadvantage.

The old man was now aware that he was no match for the young man. A serious look passed over his face. He then made a polite gesture to Darren and apologized, "I'm sorry if I have offended you."
