Chapter 101
The Consortium’s Heir by Benjamin_Jnr
Chapter 101 (Dragon Lord Imperial Residence, Darius Residence)
Darius was naturally unaware of the impending danger to his life and went about his daily activities as usual He performed the meditation techniques in the tattered book his grandfather gave him before practicing his martial arts As he practiced his martial arts daily, Darius found out that he was getting increasingly stronger after every practice session.
It was certainly strange, as Darius didnât know the reason why he made such rapid improvements Moreover, he also noticed that his progress was now stalling When he first began practicing martial arts after the assassination attempt, his martial arts skills improved by leaps and bounds.
However, his progress stalled nearly two months after the assassination attempt. It was as if he was at a bottleneck and needed something extra to break through Of course, the reason why Dariusâ martial arts skills improved greatly was because of the golden liquid his grandfather gave him when he was severely injured.
The golden liquid was a liquid that could cure all types of injuries and at the same time greatly stimulate the potential of a person, hence the rapid improvements in Darius physique and martial arts skills, The tattered book also played a very big role in improving his skills, The meditation techniques were special breathing techniques that unlocked different meridians in the human body, hence enhancing and regulating the flow of Qi in the body to ald awakening Darius was still way below entry level, so he had not yet awakened QI.
Unsurprisingly. Darius had no idea that the tattered book and the golden liquid were responsible for his swift improvement, therefore he kept practicing as hard as he could After the last assassination attempt by Luke, he didnât want to experience such hopelessness anymore The day went by just like any other day, with him going through West Atlantics Intâl new projects and investments, and soon enough, it was already night time.
As Darius exited his study room, he couldnât help look at his surroundings There was this uneasy feeling he had, and it was the same as the last time he was ambushed when he was leaving the library He gazed at his surroundings vigilantly, but was unable to notice anything odd.
Still being cautious, he tensed his body in preparation for an ambush, but after waiting for some minutes nothing unusual happened.
He thought he was being paranoid, but as the saying goes âonce bliten, Iwice shy Darius was not going to les his quard down As he made his way to his room, the uneasy feeling got more intense, and a cold sweat broke out on his beck There was no doubt about it now He was in danger He had a one hundred percent trust in his out feeling, and right now his qut feeling was telling him that he was in danger, so Darius dared not take it for granted He suddenly remembered that his grandfather had warned two days ago to protect his sell He offended the mysterious persona behind the Dream Investment Group, so there was no way that he would stay still Perhaps, he had sent someone over to settle the score.
Suddenly, a hoarse voice sounded in his room âItâs quite impressive you noticed my presence * The hoarse voice stated Darius jolted in shock the moment he heard the voice It was really true!
There was indeed someone tailing him!
Who are you?â Darius asked. Although he was frightened by the sudden appearance of the hoarse voice, his was voice was incredibly steady He concealed his fear so greatly that there was no iota of fear in his voice You donât need to know who I am.â The voice replied haughtily in a hoarse voice The curtains in his room suddenly started swaying wildly, and this scared Darius to a great extent The lights in his room went off, plunging the whole room into darkness When the lights came back on, a figure now stood in the center of the room The figure was dressed completely in black, with his face completely covered by a black mask There was black mist on the surrounding the figure, which gave the figure a very intimidating appearance Moreover, there was a sinister aura continually emitted by the figure You should be lucky that your identity is unknown. The figure started contemptuously âBecause of that, I will not kill you However, you will be spending the rest of the month in the hospital That is my act of benevolence to you â The figure concluded hoarsely His words made it seem as if he was passing a judgment on Darius, and this infuriated Darius greatly Angered, he yelled furiously at the masked figure in the room Who do you think you are to decide such The figure frowned irritably at Dariusâ words He couldnât stand being insulted by someone he could kill so easily âYou must have a death wishiâ the masked figure retorted angrily As the figure yelled, his body began to flicker and then vanished from view. Almost Immediately, the figure reappeared in front of Darius and struck him in the chest with his palm.
Ho intended to knock Darius unconscious and render him incapacitated with that single strike, but his eyes widened in astonishment the next moment.
