Nobilis of War novel Chapter 1157

Owen, who was at the low-level Domain God Realm, was determined to kill Darren. Everyone present was certain that Darren would not survive Owen's onslaught.

When Darren sensed the powerful god's power chasing him as he flew, he realized that he couldn't block it.

'What should I do?' he wondered.

Although he couldn't come up with a solution, Darren wouldn't just wait for death to claim him. He summoned all his skills and formed a defense with which to protect his body. Then, he suddenly increased his speed to dodge the arrow, but it was too fast.

In the blink of an eye, the arrow broke through Darren's defenses and dispersed the blade and sword intents, the black god's power, and the dark gold god's power.

Death loomed, and there was nothing Darren could do to stop it.

"Roar!"

Just then, a ferocious dragon roar pierced the sky.

The sound was so powerful that it seemed as though it would destroy the whole world. All the masters in a three-hundred-kilometer radius, could not help but look in the direction of the roar. On a distant mountain peak where the Cloud Forest Sect was located, stood a young man with white hair. He seemed to have no breath—almost as if he had died many years ago. To everyone's astonishment, the young man's eyes flew open. There was a hint of surprise in his eyes.

Owen's arrow did not pierce Darren's body. Instead, it was blocked by a hazy dragon shadow.

"What?"

Everyone was startled when they felt the overwhelming dragon power. Even Darren was no exception.

'What enviable dragon power!' Darren exclaimed in his mind. He didn't know how he came to have such mighty dragon power.

"Darren, I have awakened." A familiar voice echoed in Darren's heart.

"Dragon ancestor!" Darren realized that the dragon ancestor had been sleeping in his heart for a long time. "How did you become so powerful? It's unbelievable!"

He could sense that the dragon ancestor had surpassed the Domain God Realm!

"It's a long story. I have woken from sleep, and only after I received the memory did I understand why I have become so powerful."

"Well, let's talk about it later. I'm in trouble now," Darren said.

"He is only in the Domain God Realm. Even though I am a soul, I can still eliminate him." The dragon ancestor's voice was filled with cold arrogance.

Whoosh!

A golden dragon blood aura rushed out of Darren's heart and shot toward Owen.

Owen was stunned. The dragon blood aura was so horrible that he felt as weak and helpless as an ant.

Boom!

The dragon blood aura hit Owen and instantly turned him into ashes!

"How dare you!"

"How dare you!"

Suddenly, over ten majestic shouts came from the sky. These were from the guard elders of the Cloud Forest Sect.

They rushed over right after they felt the power of the dragon roar, and happened to see Owen being killed.

Their first assumption was that an enemy had ambushed him.

"These old men are powerful, and it's better not to become their enemy. You should tell them that you used an arcane skill. Don't expose me. Otherwise, they may kill you." The dragon ancestor used his spiritual sense to instruct Darren. He said this not because he was afraid of these elders, but because he was worried that they would send strong warriors to cause Darren trouble.

"Okay, I'll tell them."

Several people dressed in green robes landed beside Darren.

"Villain, how dare you kill people here?" a law enforcement elder roared at Darren. Judging from his aura, he might be at the top-level Domain God Realm.

"I'm not a villain. I am a disciple of the Cloud Forest Sect." Darren appeared calm and confident.

"Shut up! When did the Cloud Forest Sect get a disciple like you? Besides, I just saw you kill Owen. Who on earth are you? Tell me!" another elder roared.

"I just passed the examination, so I'm a new disciple of the Cloud Forest Sect. You can ask the elder in charge of the registration if you don't believe me. As for Owen, he tried to kill me first. I had no choice but to fight back. Since he's stronger than me and my life hung in the balance, I was forced to use a secret skill passed down from my ancestors. If I hadn't fought back, I would have died. That elder is my witness," Darren calmly explained.

Elder Hassan, who was in charge of registration, flew over and bowed humbly before the other elders. "Elders, what he says is true. I witnessed Owen provoke him for no reason. He also threatened to kill this young man. He had no choice but to fight back."

Elder Hassan knew that Olivia had taken a fancy to Darren, and now that he had seen Darren's powerful skills, he naturally spoke up for him. What was more, what he said was the truth. He would not be held responsible even if someone investigated Owen's death.

The expression on the elders' faces softened slightly, and their oppressive aura seemed restrained as well.

"How did you release that powerful dragon power just now?"

These elders were not concerned about Owen's death. But, they were highly interested in the horrifying dragon power.

"That is my secret weapon. A senior left it to my ancestor, and then my ancestor passed it to me through a rune paper. I didn't expect it to be so powerful. I apologize if it disturbed you. Please forgive me," Darren explained apologetically.

"Humph! Do you expect us to believe that? How could there be such a rune paper in the world? Why have I never seen it?" As the elder spoke, another elder flew over and landed in the crowd.

Dressed in a blue robe, this elder seemed to have a stronger aura than the other elders. He was the Third Elder of the Cloud Forest Sect, Owen's master.

At this moment, he glared at Darren, as if he would swallow him alive.

"That's the truth. And there's nothing I can do if you don't believe me." Darren didn't explain further. He was aware that the more he explained, the more flaws they would find.

"Even if it were true, you have to pay with your life for killing Owen. You haven't formally joined the sect yet, but you have committed murder. That is a serious crime, and I have to punish you!"

Then the Third Elder turned over his palm as he prepared to unleash his god's power.

"Humph! Third Elder, how can you threaten to kill him without a second thought? Since you enjoy making such decisions, should I persuade my father to abdicate and let you be the sect leader?"

A beautiful girl appeared in front of everyone.

"Miss Olivia?" They all knew that something terrible was to be expected every time this girl showed up.

"Please don't, Miss Olivia." When the Third Elder saw the young girl, he contained his arrogance and slightly bowed to her.

"Is there anything in the Cloud Forest Sect that you wouldn't dare to do?"

"Miss Olivia, you can't say that. Please don't label me." The Third Elder's eyelids twitched. He was furious, but he didn't dare to be impolite or arrogant. After all, she was their sect leader's beloved daughter.

"Well. I just labeled you. Do you have a problem with that?" Olivia scolded sharply.

"You!" The Third Elder was too angry to say anything. Olivia had always opposed him, and today was no different. As she was interfering, it seemed that he would not be able to punish this bloke today. He had no choice but to leave. Before leaving, he gave Darren a murderous look, as if he wanted to take out all his grievance and frustration on Darren.

"Help me, elder. Please help me to avenge my brother," pleaded Jeff, who got up and followed the Third Elder.

"Get out of my sight!"

Barely had he finished roaring at the young man, and Jeff turned into ashes!
