Chapter 1430
“Darryl!” The old man chuckled and said, “Don’t panic, I won’t do anything to you. I only capture you because I have no choice. For the sake of fulfilling my daughter’s wish, I will first apologize to you.”‘Daughter?’Darryl was baffled. He did not know whether to laugh or cry. “Who is your daughter? Do I know her?”‘This old man pretended to be me and sell fake elixirs just to capture me. Then, he said that his daughter wants to see me? Who is she?’ Darryl pondered for a long time but could not come up with anything concrete.The old man smiled and said nothing. He only instructed the four men to continue with the pace.At that moment, Darryl did not know that the old man was Eric Scope, the Ice Fire Island’s Sect Master! Ice Fire Island was located about 150 kilometers away from the New World on the southern sea. It was not a huge island, but it had some strange scenery. The island had tall mountains covered in snow all year long, and yet, lava flowed at the foot of the mount

After he pushed the door opened, Eric said gently, “My dear daughter, I’ve brought you Darryl Darby. You should not have any regrets in life anymore.”Eric smiled when he said that. However, there was also sadness in his tone. Eric’s daughter had a strange disease; she would not be able to survive much longer. She wanted to see Darryl before she died.Darryl trembled and gasped.‘F*ck! This is the gorgeous woman that the four men mentioned just now?’Daryl noticed a weak, petite person on the bed. She had an alluring figure, but her entire face was black and swollen; it was hard to look at her.The lady on the bed was Eric’s daughter—Stella Scope.Stella had only turned 18 that year; she was bright and pretty! As she grew up in Ice Fire Island her entire life, she had always wanted to see the outside world since she was young. Half a year ago, she had snuck out of the Ice Fire Island while her father was not paying attention.She roamed a few mainlands, and she had heard many

At that moment, Darryl still did not know that Stella used to be a gorgeous woman. She only turned ugly due to the poison.As he thought about that, Darryl asked, “Has this lady been poisoned?”“Yes!” Eric nodded; his eyes were filled with heartache and helplessness.He was the Ice Fire Island’s Sect Master and someone at the Heaven Ascension level, yet he could not save his beloved daughter. It was the most ironic thing.Darryl smiled and continued to say, “If I guess correctly, she was poisoned by the Corpse Flower, right?” Then, Darryl took a closer look at Stella’s situation.The Corpse Flower was an extremely poisonous plant. It grew at places where evil spirits converged. It specifically absorbed nutrients from corpses, hence its name.The Infinite Elixir Manual mentioned the poison would gather its victim’s energy field to quicken their death. An ordinary person would have died on the spot, but cultivators could survive for less than ten days.That was what had happened t

“Dad!” Stella said anxiously, “Just let Darryl go!”“Why?” Eric was confused. He thought that Stella admired Darryl. Why would she want him to let him go?“I—” Stella bit her lips. She said gently, “He’s a famous hero. I am already satisfied that I’ve met him in person. I’m only an admirer who will die soon. I’m not his friend, so how can I ask him to keep me company?”Eric frowned in thought.He knew that Stella was right. He was already wrong when he captured Darryl. It was even worse when he asked Darryl to stay and accompany his daughter. However, if he were to let Darryl go, she would not be able to see him. Would that not make her even unhappier?Suddenly, Eric felt conflicted.Darryl nodded discreetly. Even though the old man was unreasonable, his daughter was kind and understanding.Gasp! The four brothers, who had been quiet by Stella’s side, started to chime in the conversation.“What do you mean, Little Junior Sister?”“We’ve captured Darryl for you. Why are y

‘F*ck! How could they decide such a huge matter like marriage so casually?’Darryl was baffled and dumbstruck.‘Who are these people? The disciples are crazy, and the master is equally weird!’'He has barely spoken with that lady, and he has to marry her? Isn't that too casual?'“Listen to me, sir!”Darryl looked at Eric and smiled bitterly. “I’ll agree to stay by your daughter, but only for a few days. I still have other important matters to attend to, and there’s no need for a wedding.”Besides her appearance, Darryl was not familiar with the woman. If he were to marry her, it would be against his own principles.“Why?”Eric frowned and said unhappily, “You think my daughter’s not a match for you? If it were not because she was poisoned, she’s prettier than a fairy. Even if you wanted to marry her then, I might not agree!”Then, Eric took a deep breath and continued to say, “Plus, my daughter admires and idolizes you. She only has a few days left to live; can’t you just give

Stella responded gently, but she could not fall asleep. Her bright eyes gazed at Darryl.Ever since she treated Darryl as her idol, she had fantasized about the day she could meet him.She did not expect that not only did she get to meet him, but she also got to marry him as well. She knew that Darryl only agreed to marry her so that she would not be sad. It was not because he wanted to be with her. However, she was satisfied if she could have him by her side, even for a day! In the blink of an eye, half an hour had passed.Darryl sweated profusely; he felt so depressed.Eric had used an unorthodox method to seal his acupoints; Darryl had tried to unseal for a long time, but he could not do it. ‘F*ck. If I can’t unseal my acupoints, I can’t leave. What should I do?’“Darryl!”Just as Darryl panicked, Stella said gently, “That is the Ice Fire Island’s Reverse Acupoint Method. You’ll have to reverse-engage your internal energy, and then you should be able to unseal your acupo

In the blink of an eye, the night passed.“Hmm…” The moment Stella woke up, she noticed Darryl sat by her bed. She was touched, and she asked gently, “Haven't you slept for the entire night?”Darryl nodded with a nonchalant expression. A night without sleep was nothing to a cultivator of his level.Then, Darryl took the elixir and said, “Come, take the antidote.”“Uh…”Stella trembled in delight and surprise. “This elixir is the antidote to the Corpse Flower poison?”When Darryl nodded, Stella did not hesitate and immediately swallowed the elixir.Stella could feel a warm flow spread throughout her entire body from her energy field; it felt unspeakably relieved and pleasant. Her spirit immediately lifted as well.“Even if you have taken the antidote, you need to recuperate for three days to recover completely. Do you understand?” Darryl smiled as he spoke to her.Darryl was relieved. He would not regret his decision to leave after he had cured Stella.“Hmm!” Stella nodded obe

“You—”The four brothers were shocked. They stood there tensely as they gazed at Darryl in a daze.‘Didn’t Master seal his acupoints yesterday? How did he manage to unseal it?’“Don’t stare at me like that!”Darryl smiled and said, “Your acupoints will automatically unseal in two hours!”Then, Darryl looked at Stella thoughtfully. “Stella, I still have an emergency to attend to; we’ll have to part ways here.”“Hmm!” Stella nodded and said gently, “When I’ve fully recovered, I’ll look for you to thank you properly for saving my life!”Darryl chuckled and waved his hands. “It was no matter; do not trouble yourself about it!”Then, Darryl walked out of the room.“Hey! Stop!”“You’re already married to Little Junior Sister. Don’t you think it’s a little irresponsible of you to walk away?”When Darryl left the manor, he could still hear the brothers’ yells, but he did not keep it in mind. He quickened his pace and headed toward the New World Royal City.He had lost a day and a n
