Roar! Sure enough, as soon as the Empress took off her phoenix robe, the Sea Enchanted Beast no longer paid any attention to her. It screamed as it lunged on the phoenix robe and clawed it violently into pieces. That damn Sea Enchanted Beast! The Empress was anxious and angry. Her phoenix robe was ruined, and she had nothing else to wear. How would she appear in public? Simultaneously, the Empress inadvertently glanced at Darry, and she noticed that he was staring at her. She was ashamed and angry, so she yelled, "You dog! Shut your eyes!" 'A dog?' Darry saw red. 'I'm here to save you, yet you called me a dog?' 'Who would say that about their son-in-law?' However, Darryl did not refute her; he looked at the Empress with a smile. "Your Majesty, if I close my eyes, how can I deal with the Sea Enchanted Beast?" When he said that, he deliberately gave the Empress an up and down stare. "You—" The Empress blushed, and she stamped her feet with anger, but she had nothi
Yvette asked, "Mother, what's the matter?" "It's all because of that damn beast." The Empress bit her lips and told Yvette what had happened. The Empress gave Darryl a fierce stare after she finished narrating the event. Even though Darryl had successfully killed the enchanted beast and saved the Empress, he had also seen her half-naked. The Empress could not accept it as she had always seen herself as noble and aloof. 'So that was what happened...' Yvette nodded and then advised the Empress gently. "Mother, don't blame Darryl for that; he only did it for your safety. Come, you can wear my robe." Yvette was about to take off her princess robe. "No, don't take it off!" The Empress shouted to stop Yvette. Yvette was stunned for a moment before she asked, "Mother, why?" Yvette knew her mother had always been a self-loving person. She would want to dress up and appear presentable on all occasions, so why would she refuse to take Yvette's robe when she was only stripped
Yvette was clever, so she could tell that Darryl had deliberately teased her mother. Darryl had always been very mischievous. Since Yvette had spoken, Darryl stopped his teasing and sat down cross-legged to resume his meditation. Yvette laid beside Darryl. Soon, she fell asleep with a big smile on her face. She was exhausted from their all-day journey. However, the Empress could not sleep a wink. As an Empress, she was frustrated that her phoenix robe was ruined and also at the fact that she had to rest in a cave with Darryl. She got angrier when she was reminded of how Darryl had made fun of her earlier. The Sea Enchanted Beast was already dying, yet Darryl tricked her into taking her phoenix robe off. Troubled by what had happened, the Empress stared bitterly at Darryl's back. 'You watch out. Let's see what I'll do when I have a chance to pay that back. … Meanwhile, at the New World Palace. Hundreds of civil and military officials stood neatly in lines on
The civil and military officials knelt and shouted in unison. Lord Kenny stood up slowly and strode out of the hall. When he reached the back bedchamber entrance, a smile crept onto his face. A slender figure with a beautiful face sat quietly on the soft and exquisite bed. She looked sad and troubled; tears had welled in her eyes. It was Monica. Lord Kenny approached her slowly. Then, Lord Kenny stretched his hand out and pinched Monica's chin. He leaned forward and whispered into her ear. "My dear, I will issue an imperial decree to crown you as my Empress tomorrow, you—" Before Lord Kenny could finish speaking, Monica pushed him away, shook her head and said, "Your Majesty, please let me go. You know that I only have Darryl in my heart. We're not fated—" Monica looked sorrowful and miserable when she said that. Darryl had been severely injured, and she did not have any news about his condition. Her heart ached even more when her son, Ambrose, had stood with Lor
Meanwhile, on an unnamed deserted island. The night passed like a fleeting moment. "Darryl!" It was still early in the morning, and Darryl was sound asleep. Then, he heard a loud and impatient cry from the Empress. "I'm hungry; go get me some food." The Empress shot a disgusted look at her incompetent son-in-law. 'How could he still be sleeping at this hour when the sun is already out? And I had to wake him up!' "Okay," Darryl replied as he sat up in a daze. Darryl had been meditating and cultivating the night before that, and he had only gone to bed in the wee hours! Yvette was also awake. She took Darryl's hand, smiled and said, "Hubby, let's go fishing by the sea!" The Empress frowned and said firmly, "Yvette, let him go by himself. You can stay with me." A moment later, the Empress thought of something and told Darryl, "By the way, I don't feel like eating fish today. We've been eating fish every day. Go and catch a few hares!" Darryl was stunned after he heard
She saw hundreds of royal guards with lit torches in their hands. Each of them was extremely powerful; they were at least a Level One Martial Emperor! The person who headed the group of guards wore a long official's robe. He had a sneer on his face—he was Florian! Besides that, a large number of royal guards also swarmed in her direction! It was an ambush! Sloan was shocked to see the scene, but she was the New World Continent's Warrior Goddess. Even in the face of such a situation, she was still fearless! Her eyes were fixed on Florian. Florian laughed. He cracked a proud and cunning smile on his face. "Commander Sloan, I didn't expect the first person to break into the prison is not Darryl, but you—" Florian's eyes slid up and down Sloan's body when he said that. He had set up an ambush to wait for Darryl because he knew that the fugitive would go there to save the Carter family. However, he did not expect to see Sloan instead! "So beautiful," Florian muttered as his
Even though Sloan's Rocky was mighty, it could not manage the attacks from so many elites in the palace. Rocky's beefy body had been cut a few times, and his blood oozed incessantly! Boom! Sloan quickly withdrew her Rocky after she noticed that it had been heavily injured. A royal guard took the opportunity to creep up and knocked the Tang Sword out of Sloan's hand.At the same time, Florian took the opportunity to ambush her; he quickly tapped on Sloan's acupoints. Sloan was not fast enough to react; she trembled and lost her mobility entirely.Then, several royal guards ran forward and tied Sloan up. "Master Darby." One of the royal guards, who attempted to ingratiate himself with Florian, said, "Should we put her in prison, too?" "Why?" Florian glared at him and feigned a righteous look. "As a former commander who snuck into the prison to rescue Darryl's comrades, I'm sure she knows where Darryl's hiding place. Bring her to my chamber, and I'll interrogate her." Fl
Suddenly, he heard footsteps from the nearby beach! 'Damn it!' 'There's someone else on this island?' Darryl listened to the footsteps, and his mind went blank. 'So, there are people on this island?' He sensed that the person was an elite; they could be at Heaven Ascension level! 'F*ck!' 'Isn't this a deserted island? I went around by myself last night, and there was no one on the island!' Darryl quickly took a Power Suppression Pill and swallowed it! The Power Suppression Pill could hide a cultivator's true strength. Darryl took it because he wanted to be cautious, not because he was afraid. It did not matter who was on the island; Darryl knew that he had to be careful. After all, he was quite well-known on all nine continents. He had better not reveal his identity!After Darryl took the Power Suppression Pill, he saw a sexy figure flying toward him from the ocean. She was too fast; in the blink of an eye, she had arrived in front of Darryl! Gasp! Darryl was s
