Talented Martial Hero
Chapter 975 Yahya's Traces

Darren guessed that the young man on the ape was most likely Yahya. He kept silent and listened for more information.

Yusuf was shocked when he heard the news.

"A young man? Are you sure?"

“Jamie was a powerful warrior in the tribe. Could he have really been killed by a young man? It seems impossible, * he thought.

"I've asked several beast friends who were hiding in the area. They all said that Jamie was killed by a young man riding an ape.

One of them also said that he had some black and white lights shining on his body. A mere glance at him would make people's eyes explode,” said Ray.

“Since when did the Dark Tribe have such a talented warrior?" wondered Yusuf with a frown. His expression had darkened at the thought. “He was even able to kill Jamie."

After hearing the description, Darren was certain the man was Yahya.

One of Yahya's three Conflicting Cultivations was dark and light powers.

"It seems that Yahya has started his Dark and Light Cultivation. He must have gained a lot of strength in the past few months,” Darren murmured.

"Patriarch Yusuf, my gopher friend told me the young man wanted Jamie to hand over someone. When Jamie told him he didn't know what he was talking about, the young man killed him," Ray added.

"Gophers don't understand human language. How would he have known that?" asked Yusuf, mildly confused.

"I've known the gopher since childhood. Over the years, I taught him the language. By now his skills in the human language are no less than that of a teenager,” replied Ray.

Yusuf furrowed his brows at the thought but began to nod slowly. If that was the case, then the gopher didn’t misunderstand.

"Who was he looking for?" asked Yusuf.

Ray opened his mouth to say something, then immediately closed it. He didn't dare say anything more.

"Tell me!" The patriarch was infuriated by Ray's hesitation. He raged at the lack of urgency. Ray, caught by surprise, kneeled to the ground.

"He was looking for me."

Darren quickly flew and stood in front of Yusuf.

Yusuf was surprised to see Darren standing in front of him. His gaze fell to Ray, still kneeling on the ground.

Ray got his point and replied, "Correct. I heard that the young man was looking for Mr. Chu and that he was going to kill him."

"Get up,” said Yusuf. He held back his rage at the thought of someone coming after Darren's life. "Mr. Chu, could it be, that you hold grudges against the young man in question?”

Darren sneered and said, "Well, of course I would have a grudge against him. It seems that he's found out about my location.”

"He dared to mess with our ancestor's friend. I'll kill him!" Yusuf roared, his bloodlust spilling out. Darren gave a weak smile and said, "Alas, it was my fault Jamie died. I shall avenge him!"

Everyone fell silent. As it turned out, Jamie's demise was indeed caused by Darren.

"Mr. Chu, don't guilt yourself over it. That kid is from the Dark Tribe and is our natural enemy. Even if he didn't come for you, he still would've killed Jamie," said Yusuf.

Darren shook his head and said, "No, that young man's name is Yahya. He doesn't seem to belong to the Dark Tribe."

"Really? Then where is he from? How dare he kill someone of our tribe!”

"He's from some small village. The ancestor also wants to meet him and fight him!"

Yusuf was astonished. His ancestor also wanted to see this young man! Who could he be?

Yusuf was beginning to realize how dire the situation was, and was troubled over what their next step was.

"What do you think, Mr. Chu? Should we inform our ancestor?” asked Yusuf, seeking Darren's advice.

"Yes, you must inform your ancestor. We won't be able to deal with this ourselves. Patriarch Yusuf, please send someone over there and tell your ancestor that Darren's rival has appeared. The ancestor will know what to do from there,” Darren said.

The ancestor knew that Yahya was backed up by a god from outer space. He got excited at the thought of battling the so-called god's soul when Darren informed him about them. Surely, he wouldn't waste a second to come out once he heard the news.

"As you wish." Yusuf then ordered someone to send word to the ancestor.

After a while, the man returned. "Well, you see, Patriarch Yusuf, the ancestor left a note on his front door," the man nervously replied.

"What was it?" Yusuf asked.

"He said that he had something important to do and asked us not to disturb him. Once he's finished his task, he'll come out."

Yusuf's face darkened as he said, "It seems that our ancestor has been in closed-door cultivation. What should we do now?"

Darren let out a big sigh. The ancestor had acquired the body of Shura, and was probably busy studying it. It would be difficult to send a message over to him.

"Gee, that's not right!" At the thought of the Shura's body, he realized something.

The Primitive Tribe cultivated the Primitive Fighting Force, which was one of the two essential forces to form the Shura Force.

Since the ancestor valued the body of the Shura so much, did this mean he was studying the Shura Force?

Darren's mind zoned in on the realization.

He snapped out of it quickly as he knew he didn't have that much time to think in the current situation. Yahya knew where he was now, and could attack at any moment.

According to Ray, Yahya's strength had greatly increased. There was a high possibility that even the top warriors of the Primitive Tribe were now no match for him.

What should he do if Yahya tried to kill him?

He was far from completing his cultivation of the Shura Force. If Yahya tried to kill him, Darren would barely be able to defend himself.

It was not a big deal if he failed the test. What was terrible was that if he died in the test, he would die in reality as well

In addition to this, Darren knew the test wouldn't be easy. If it was only about inheriting the three Emperor Characters, the holy emperor wouldn't have had to take such great pains to select an inheritor.

So Darren still wanted to know the real purpose of the test.

His inheritance of the Fire and Water Emperor Character and becoming a half-step emperor took a backseat in his mind.

He cared more about surviving and finding out the truth.

"Patriarch Yusuf, that young man is heartless and cruel. I worry he may hurt the other members of the tribe. You'd better spread the news that I've already left this place, so that I can lure Yahya to somewhere else,” Darren suggested after pondering for a while.

"No way," Yusuf refused. "No, he killed Jamie. We must avenge him. Since our ancestor is unable to come out, I'll kill him myself."

"We can't, Patriarch Yusuf." Darren stopped him at once. Yusuf was underestimating Yahya's power. "Mr. Chu, do you think I can't fight against a young man?" A trace of displeasure emerged in the bottom of Yusuf's heart. Did Darren think he was that weak?

"Well, in my opinion, you are second only to the ancestor. You're powerful, no question.

But you have to know that battling this young man will not be easy. Even your ancestor is wary of Yahya's master. He is not exactly a force to be reckoned with," Darren said.

"What? Even the ancestor is wary of him?"

Yusuf couldn't believe what Darren was saying. His ancestor was mighty and powerful. The only one who could combat him was the bastard of the Dark Tribe. Why would he be wary of a simple teen?
