Darryl's tone was calm as he spoke, but it left no room for retaliation.Simone smirked as she lost her patience at Darryl's words."Alright. I'm not going to make this hard for you, Darryl Darby. Work with me and I'll give you a chance. If you don't, don't fault me for what happens to you!"Simone then turned around to pick up a curious-looking box from the corner of the room.'F*ck!'Darryl's expression shifted at the sight of what was in the box as he flared up in shock and anger.There were over ten small scorpions about the size of a thumbnail in the box. They were completely golden in color and looked like beautifully crafted works of art, but Darryl knew what they were.The rare Goldnail Scorpions.The Goldnail Scorpions were not poisonous, but they were infamous in the wandering world. That was because they liked to sting one's acupoint's the most, and one sting from them would bring about unbearable pain.Darryl would have never been able to guess that Simone would be
Darryl was right— Simone had been poisoned by the Tepan Snake.Simone had been visiting an ancient tomb two years ago. The tomb had been built near a piece of land with underground lava, where a Tepan Snake had been residing for centuries.Simone had managed to take the Tepan Snake down after almost fifty rounds of battle, but she had in turn been poisoned with its flame.In the next two years to come, she had tried various methods to expel the poison from her body— but they were all to no avail. All she could do was use her internal energy to suppress it, and it would act out every half a year.And every time this happened, she would feel an unbearable pain as if she was on fire.Simone's face was flushed scarlet then. The flame of the fire poison was agonizing, and she could not help but let out a low moan.Ha ha…Darryl smirked to himself at the sight. It just had to be karma for this kid torturing him.Simone flared up in anger at the look on Darryl's face, roaring at him,
It was obvious that the pill worked.The next second, Simone stretched her hand out in a tone that left no room for retaliation. "Give it to me!""Alright, here you go!"Darryl smiled lightly at the desperation in Simone's eyes, handing the pill over. Yet just as Simone was about to take it from him, he tilted his hand and it rolled onto the ground.The pill was extremely fragile, and smashed into pieces once it hit the ground.Indeed, Darryl had done so on purpose.This kid had almost tortured Darryl to death seconds ago. How could he have just given her the Chilly Marrow Pill so easily?"Oh!"Darryl eyes the shattered pill on the ground, speaking in a false tone, "Oops, my hand slipped. Those Goldnail Scorpions really drained me of energy. Sorry!"As he spoke, Darryl stared at Simone with the ghost of a smile on his face."You…"Simone's expression shifted, beside herself with rage. "How dare you, Darryl Darby! You tricked me…"Simone's gaze flashed as she spoke, radiatin
Darryl put on an uncaring expression at the look on her face, grinning as she asked, "You don't have to do it if you don't want to, you know."Darryl stretched on the chair he was sitting in. "I'm going to have to get some rest, then."Rest?Simone stopped short. "Why? Make the pill now, you must!" She could clearly sense that the poison was increasing in intensity in her body by the second.Darryl let out a breath, speaking in a false tone. "I wish I could too, you know. It's just that all those Goldnail Scorpions really did a number on my body, and you won't massage me… all I can do is rest to ease my body."Simone was beside herself with panic at the words.The pain from the fire poison was practically unbearable, and she hardly had any time to wait for Darryl to rest."Fine!"Simone eventually nodded, biting her lip as she walked over to Darryl before placing her hands onto his shoulders and beginning to massage him slowly.To tell the truth, she did not want to do so at a
Darryl let out a breath, before speaking slowly. "The poison's been in your body for too long, it's in your bloodstream. It'll be impossible to heal you in one go. You need to take one of these everyday, and keep doing so for a whole year to get rid of it completely."In that case…Simone bit her lip. "Well… could you make me some more…"Darryl could not help but cry out at the words. "Do you think this stuff is easy to make, kid? Do you know how precious those herbs were? Anyways, I only had enough on me to make one."What was she going to do then?Just then, Simone's brows furrowed in panic.Darryl flashed her a smile. "How about this. I'll give you the recipe to make the pills— but only if you let me go. Oh, and you must promise me one thing.""Also, I'm only going to say this once. Your brother's death was completely caused by Tyson, and had nothing to do with the Raksasa tribe or their Empress. Tyson's also paid for his deeds."Simone bit her lip at the words, falling sile
Darryl was growing fonder of Avalon by the second. She had reminded him of Jewel instantly the second he saw her. Both little girls were orphans, and the similarities were only adding up by the second.The only thing different about them was that Jewel had been gentle and kind, but Avalon was feisty and watchful. If she were to be trained further, she was sure to become someone great.Alright!Avalon hesitated at Darryl's words, and finally nodded. "Alright, then. I haven't got anything to lose, anything."Darryl smiled.Following that, he wrote down the recipe for the Chilly Marrow Pill and passed it to Simone. She stuck to her word, and let Darryl and Avalon go."Sigh!"Once they were outside, Avalon looked Darryl up and down. "I still don't know your name."Darryl chuckled. "My name's Darryl Darby. You can call me Brother Darryl from now on."Avalon nodded. "Alright then. You said just now that you'd have someone teach me how to fight, and send me to school. What do you w
Yet just then, a loud crash could be heard from the lobby. Darryl looked over, and saw Avalon standing before a pile of shattered ceramics with an awkward expression on her face.He hurried over, speaking in a warm tone. "What happened? Are you hurt?"Avalon shook her head, hanging it in guilt. "I'm fine. I just saw the pretty vase, and touched it a little. I didn't know it would break so easily."Following that, Avalon lowered her voice to a whisper. "Does it cost a lot?""That's alright!" Darryl chuckled. "It's just a vase."As he spoke, Darryl eyed the vase. It was fine and smooth, and looked to be around a few centuries old judging from the design on it.Yet to Felix, this would be hardly anything."Hey!"Just as the pair were speaking, the receptionist hurried over. She cried out at the sight of the shattered vase. "What's going on here? Do you know how much this vase is? Can you even afford it?"As the words rang through the air, a few security guards rushed over to surr
Avalon's face turned scarlet at the crowd's jeers.Darryl saw this, and smiled gently. "Don't you stoop to their level. You won't be able to get anywhere using logic with these guys."Avalon grunted in response, holding back her anger and not saying anything.Just then, Calvin stepped forward and looked at Darryl. "This little girl broke our vase?""Yes," Darryl nodded.Calvin smirked at the admission. "Alright. How do you think we should take care of this?"Darryl smiled lightly. "You can let me make a phone call. I'll be sure to return with a satisfying answer within the next half hour."Things would be much easier once he got into contact with Felix.What?Just then, everyone else stopped short before bursting out into laughter. "This fellow's interesting, isn't he? Asking to make a phone call at a time like this!""I reckon he's trying to buy time to escape.""Yeah, I think so too…"The voices sounded over, all of them mocking Darryl.Calvin could not help but laugh
Behind Darryl, Ambrose smiled widely, looking at Darryl with happiness in his eyes.Then, under the gaze of thousands, the brides entered. Instantly, there were cheers all around. Many men looked envious. The eight brides were drop-dead gorgeous! Debra, Yvette, Yvonne, Monica, Aurora, Shannon, Quincy, and Lily. They held hands and walked on stage.More importantly, each of the brides was of high status. Some were empresses, some were Sect Masters. It could be said that Darryl was living the ultimate dream of many men.The expensive gowns showed off their attractive curves. At that moment, when they stood together, each of them looked so beautiful as if they were angels, gracing the presence of mortal humans. It was a visual feast.Soon, the wedding was at its peak where they were pronounced husband and wives. Rapturous applause rang out.Darryl walked over and kissed each wife on the cheek. He also took many photos and uploaded them to his public WeMet account, the North Valle
Especially Magaera. He wiped away the sweat on his forehead. He was finally relieved. After all, he had previously destroyed the prince's fairy soul. It was the death penalty.Seeing how sincere they were about their mistakes, the Ancient Ancestor said nothing else. He scanned the crowd and said seriously, "Alright, I am now going to announce an important matter. "While I was cultivating in seclusion, many things had happened. However, the Godly Region can't go a day without a ruler. I have decided to anoint Darryl Darby as the new Heaven Emperor."Daryl is kind and knowledgeable. He had previously helped defend against the fiend race. He has worked hard for the Godly Region. He was later also the master of Aurin, being the Royal Master. He is more than qualified for the role."Wow! Upon his words, the entire hall was in an uproar. However, soon, the officials and the Immortals went up to Darryl and congratulated him. After all, the Ancient Ancestor was right. Darryl had indeed
What the hell…Emperor Aurelias was stunned. He looked at the Ancient Ancestor with disbelief. Impossible. He had personally destroyed the Ancient Ancestor's fairy soul. How could he still be alive? Finally, Emperor Aurelias came to his senses. He said, "You…" He was so stunned that he could no longer continue his sentence after muttering a word.The Ancient Ancestor silently looked at him without any expression on his face. He slowly said, "The one that you destroyed previously was only one of my other duplicates. Aurelias, you are still the same after so many years. I am truly disappointed in you.""Haha!" Upon hearing that, Emperor Aurelias was first stunned, then he laughed maniacally. "Stop with the nagging. Even if you favored the Nine Heaven Emperor, he is already dead. In your heart, I can never live up to him. This makes me unhappy. What are you going to do about that?"Then, Emperor Aurelias attacked the Ancient Ancestor. He knew that there was no point crying over sp
Woo! Darryl took a deep breath and slowly said, "We're at the Sealed Fiend Mountain, many fiend race warriors have died here. The aura here is extremely hostile. Mixing the aura with the Immortals Trap Formation, it should be able to hold him in…"However, before he could finish his sentence, Emperor Aurelias screeched loudly. A burst of energy exploded from him, slamming onto the Immortals Trap Formation.Slam! With a loud rumble, Emperor Aurelias destroyed a few stone pillars. The formation's powers were instantly weakened. Taking this opportunity, Emperor Aurelias broke free from the formation.What the hell! Upon seeing this scene, Darryl was bewildered. Emperor Aurelias had such terrifying powers that even the Immortals Trap Formation could not contain him.Magaera's expressions changed too. His eyes were filled with nervousness and gravity.At that moment, Emperor Aurelias glared at them. "You brats. Die!" Then, he burst forth with the force of thunder. Facing this s
Magaera would be the one to lure Emperor Aurelias there. At the right moment, Darryl would activate the Immortals Trap Formation and trap Emperor Aurelias in it.Darryl even took out the Divine Dragon Jade to send a distress signal to Shandy. Shandy gave Darryl the Divine Dragon Jade, and he always kept it on him.Darryl hid by the side quietly and waited soon after setting up the formation.Slam! Slam! Slam!Soon after, he heard fighting in the nearby skies, followed by the arrival of two figures.It was Magaera and Emperor Aurelias.Dark clouds formed wherever they were, and the wind blew as a result of the terrifying surge of energy.Darryl was ecstatic and delighted to see that.Magaera was fighting Emperor Aurelias at the time while scanning the surroundings. He knew the formation was in place when he did not see Darryl.Previously, Magaera and Darryl had agreed that once the formation was in place, Darryl would hide and wait for the right moment to attack.Slam!At tha
Hehe!The so-called Emperor Aurelias was stunned when he heard what Darryl said, but then he smiled and said, "No wonder you are the Royal Master." It is no surprise that Prince Aurin once held you in such high regard. You could immediately tell what was going on. Amazing!"Then, he raised his hands and wiped his face, showing his true identity.It was Magaera.Bloody hell!When Darryl saw Magaera, he was instantly stunned. "How did you come out from the chaotic void?"At that moment, Darryl was genuinely shocked. He correctly guessed that Emperor Aurelias in front of him was an imposter. Many people crossed his mind, but he would never have thought it would be Magaera.What was even more surprising was Magaera's ability to escape the chaotic void.Magaera chuckled lightly. "If you could trap me in the chaotic void so easily, how could I even be a Lord General?"Darryl took a deep breath and gradually calmed down after hearing what Magaera said.The next second, Darryl said,
"I'll see him now at the Imperial Sky Palace."Empress Heidi was about to head to the Imperial Sky Palace, but Magaera stopped her."Your Majesty, do not be reckless," Magaera said with a serious expression. He said, "If you head there now, you are just falling into a trap.""Then…" Empress Heidi's exquisite face was filled with annoyance. She said anxiously, "What should we do now?" She was already at her wit's end in that current situation.Magaera took a deep breath as if he had made a huge decision. "If you want to go up against Emperor Aurelias, you have to get help from someone.""Who?" Empress Heidi asked quickly.Magaera had a look of complexity. He said, "Darryl Darby!"What?"Empress Heidi initially thought that Magaera would mention some Immortal's name. She never expected that he would say Darryl's name. She was instantly baffled. She looked at Magaera in shock. "Darryl Darby? You want to get him to help?"Empress Heidi was very hostile toward Darryl when the two p
Crash!When the surrounding Imperial Sky Palace guards heard the commotion, they rushed over.They were immediately enraged when they saw Magaera in mid-air."It's the Lord General.""What is he doing? Is he challenging His Majesty?"While the palace guards were conversing, a beam of golden light rushed forth from the Imperial Sky Palace, colliding with Magaera in mid-air.A figure draped in a golden dragon robe emitted a powerful aura of command and arrogance. It was Emperor Aurelias."Magaera?" When he saw Magaera, Emperor Aurelias's expression did not change. He said calmly, "I thought you were still stuck in the chaotic void. I didn't think that you would safely return. Not bad."There are now a thousand things to do in the Godly Region. I need just the right man to assist me."Emperor Aurelias thought that Magaera was there to help him.Magaera sneered, not showing him any respect. "Assist? You are not qualified to be the Heaven Emperor. What assistance do you need?" His
Damn it!The powerful energy crushed Dax; he could not even move, let alone dodge the attack. He could only look at Romeo as he approached.Chester was also shocked and furious. "Stop!"However, Romeo ignored him. He increased his speed instead."You—"Circe was terrified when she saw Romeo about to kill Dax. She wished she could have rushed over to stop him, but it was too late. She drew her sword and placed it around her neck in desperation."Fine. If you insist on revenge, I won't want to live anymore too." It pained her to say that.She saw Archfiend Antigonus destroyed with her own eyes. Circe was devastated. She later became a member of the Holy Saint Sect. Initially, she imagined herself growing old alone. She had no idea Romeo, her junior brother, would be Archfiend Antigonus' host body.Before she could even be happy about that, he had gone to seek revenge on Darryl.She knew that revenge would only breed revenge; there would never be an end to it. If he were to kill
