Darryl breathed a sigh of relief and turned around to leave after he understood the situation. Since the Empress was only talking in her dream because she was hallucinating, why would he be afraid of that? "Your Majesty!" Before he could turn around to leave, he saw the Empress's body turned sideways, and her jade-like hand grabbed Darryl's arm. The Empress had begun to hallucinate under the influence of the Illusion Pill. Unfortunately, she did not realize that she had caught Darryl's arm by accident. "Your Majesty, the North Moana is coming for us. Today, we had managed to defend against their invasion, but I know that Yang Jian will definitely not give up—he will be back. I am so scared—" The Empress held Darryl's arm as she mumbled to herself. The Empress who was talking to the Emperor in her illusion was no longer her usual intimidating self. Instead, she looked gentle and weak, just like any other woman, which was a pitiful scene. However, Darryl was not in the mood
Quincy no longer felt as nervous as before—she only felt anger. The b*stard had made her nervous all night for nothing, and she waited all night for nothing. D*mn it! Darryl's heart skipped a beat when he felt her anger; he got a little nervous. Quincy could not have found out about what had happened between him and the Empress, could she? After all, the two rooms were not far too away from each other. Quincy did hear what the Empress said the previous night. However, she also knew that the Empress often took the Illusion Pill to see the Emperor in her dreams, so Quincy thought that the Empress was having an intimate time with the Emperor. "I—" Darryl scratched his head and said with a smile, "I was arranging for the army to deploy the defense mechanism for Lilydale City." Darryl did not look at Quincy in the eye when he said that. After all, he did not even have the confidence to lie after he had done something wrong. Quincy snorted coldly and said, "Did you need
Darryl sweated profusely. F*ck! He felt uncomfortable as his Numbing Acupoint was sealed. Quincy smiled and said softly, "Didn't you say that you are tired and that you want to relieve your fatigue? So I pressed on your Numbing Acupoint to help you relax." She was beaming, but her eyes looked like she had finally avenged herself. Without waiting for Darryl's response, Quincy said indifferently, "Take your time to enjoy it, and I will go and check on the situation outside." Quincy left the room without looking back after she said that. 'Darryl—what a b*stard! Dream on if you want me to be at your beck and call.' F*ck! Darryl watched helplessly as Quincy left the room. Quincy was too mean. Not only did she refuse to be at Darryl's service, she even sealed his acupoints when he did not pay any attention. Darryl wasted no time. He quickly mustered his internal energy to release those acupoints on his own. Even though it was not fatal to seal the Numbing Acupoint, it h
Yang Jian had intentionally described the situation in detail to Zhang Jue the night before; he also mentioned Darryl's Thousand Woods Mystery Formation. After he learned about the situation, Zhang Jue chuckled and assured Yang Jian that he could handle it. Zhang Jue was also familiar with the Thousand Woods Mystery Formation. "Your Majesty, don't worry. You can just watch the battle from the side and see how I break Lilydale City's defense," Zhang Jue responded plainly before he raised himself into the air. "Everybody, listen to my order! Attack!" A few cold words echoed from Zhang Jue's mouth—he was not loud, but his voice spread throughout Lilydale City. "Attack!" The North Moana Army issued an earth-shattering howl upon the command, and they went forth like a tide toward Lilydale City. What? Darryl was stunned, and he watched Zhang Jue in surprise. He was puzzled. 'Who is this? I didn't see him yesterday. Is he their new recruit?' Darryl stopped brooding about it
Darryl was shocked and furious to see the South Cloud soldiers fall, one after another. He shouted in a rage, "Everyone, don't panic! Resist with all your strength."Darryl went right into the battlefield to help the South Cloud army. While he went all out to kill the enemies, Darryl continued to shout commands and prepared to deploy other formations to hinder the North Moana Army.However, Yang Jian did not give Darryl a chance to rework his formation at all. Within a few minutes, Yang Jian had led his men to the foot of the city gate."Withdraw!"When he realized that more South Cloud soldiers had fallen in pools of blood, Darryl knew that Lilydale City was gone. He yelled, "Hurry! Protect Her Majesty! Retreat and evacuate Lilydale City."After he said that, he managed to deflect several enemies in front of him. Then, he flew upward and returned to the top of the city gate.Darryl did not want to withdraw.However, he had no choice. The opponent had broken his formation. Besid
There were reports that the North Moana Army had camped on a mountain dozens of kilometers north of the South Cloud Royal City. After a few hours of rest, they would probably attack the Royal City. Once the Royal City had fallen, the entire South Cloud World would be completely finished."Everyone!"The Empress looked around her; she was worried and sorrowful. "Is there any way to stop the North Moana Army?"The civil and military officials looked at each other, and no one came forward to make a suggestion. The entire hall fell silent.Alright!The Empress breathed a long sigh as she looked at Darryl. "Not even you, Darryl?"There was a glimmer of hope in her eyes when she said that. Darryl smiled bitterly and shook his head. He said, "Your Majesty, I can't do anything as well."Darryl was dejected. Since he became a cultivator, Darryl had been extremely confident in everything he did, especially about formation techniques. Darryl believed that he could be the most well-lear
F*ck!Darryl was taken aback for a moment after he heard Quincy's statement. He did not know how to react to that. Then, Darryl finally recovered his senses; he smiled bitterly at Quincy. "Your Highness, how can you blame this on me? Yang Jian would still conquer the South Cloud World even without me."Quincy was very interesting. She blamed Darryl because she hated him. That was too unreasonable!Darryl saw the Empress hand the royal jade seal to the eunuch; they were prepared to send it to Yang Jian.What?The royal jade seal immediately caught Darryl's attention. He had not cared to look at it before that. However, when the eunuch passed by him, he discovered that the royal jade seal was crystal clear, and it gleamed in dazzling colors.Oh, f*ck!Darryl was extremely shocked, but he was also delighted on the inside.He laughed discreetly.It looked like the royal jade seal was a Heaven Repairing Stone—the colorful stone that Empress Nuwa used to patch the sky. Its shap
Darryl pondered that as he stopped smiling. He looked at the Empress and said, "Your Majesty, you are wrong. Yang Jian may be a gentleman on the surface, but he is a cunning and despicable villain. If you hand this royal jade seal to him, he will only agree to your conditions verbally, but he will never honor his words after he gains control over the South Cloud World."As soon as Emperor Hou Yi died, Yang Jian had usurped the throne almost immediately and proclaimed himself the next Emperor. He claimed to have found out the truth about Hou Yi's death, but what had happened in the end? He merely wanted to capture Chang Er and forced her to be his woman. Then, he began to send his troops to conquer other continents.He was not someone who would honor his words, so he was a villain, was he not?Err…When she saw Darryl's serious expression, the Empress knew that he was not joking. She bit her lips and pondered her next move.'That's true. What if Yang Jian turned back on his words?
