Chapter 3954
Chester exchanged a look of confusion with the rest.
The scale dragon knew Darryl?
At that time, none of them knew that the Hidden Hero Sect had managed to capture Darryl previously and that
Veron Lange had pushed him off the cliff for revenge. 1
Yvette was dumbfounded, she braced herself and went forward to speak to the scaled dragon. "Of course, Ĩ know
Darryl Darby! He's my man!"
"He's my sworn brother!" Dax chimed in.
The scale dragon paused for a second and stretched his mouth wide open, laughing boisterously. "So you're all
Darryl's good friends and family. I see now. If that's the case, you can relax. It's a misunderstanding. We're
friends!"
Friends?
Chester and the rest paused in disarray upon hearing that.
What was going on?
The scaled dragon saw how puzzled everyone looked and chuckled. "To be frank with you,
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtwhen I got into some muddy trouble earlier on, it was Darryl who helped me." The scaled
dragon told them the story in great detail.
So that was what happened.
Chester and the rest were stunned, but they smiled in relief when they learned the story.
They thought they were dead for sure—what a pleasant turn of events!
Yvette went forward again to speak with the scaled dragon. "If that's the case, you should
help US get out of this cave to repay Darryl for the favor."
Everyone nodded in agreement.
The scale dragon paused to ponder for a moment before he said, " I'm currently at my
most critical moment of transforming. After breaking through the previous blockade, I've
been patiently waiting for the Ascension of Thunder. So I can't leave just yet."
The scaled dragon was not wrong. After Darryl helped it break through its blockade, it was
just one step away from the Heaven Ascension, fully transforming into a dragon. The
Heaven Ascension was every enchanted beast's last blockade.
Geometrically speaking, the cave was located in a unique spot where Ascension of
Thunder could take place, where its power would be dispersed. That was why the scaled
dragon could not just leave the cave just yet.
Yvette, Chester, and the rest were crestfallen when they heard that.
"Everyone!"
The scaled dragon said, "Relax, once I've succeeded in getting through the Ascension of
Thunder and fully transforming into a dragon, I promise to get you out safely. You seem to
have just survived a battle and are extremely weak. You should rest and cultivate. I can
guard you for now."
Since the scaled dragon sounded very sincere, Chester and the rest did not press on. They
sat cross-legged on the ground and started cultivating and healing themselves.
Meanwhile, at Westrington.
There was a small town located about ten kilometers northwest of the Royal city. It was
called Iridescent Town, and it was a beautiful, picturesque place.
Darryl and Jade Immortal sat inside a restaurant at Iridescent Town. They were chit-
chatting over some wine and a table full of local delicacies.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHalf an hour before that, Darryl had successfully returned to the Nine Mainland with Jade Immortal's help. They
were teleported to somewhere close to Iridescent Town.
As promised, Darryl immediately brought Jade Immortal to the biggest restaurant in Iridescent Town and treated
him to a table full of delicious food.
Darryl had successfully obtained the glazed water, which meant he could save Dax and Neil. Since the weight in
his chest had been lifted, he was able to enjoy a few glasses of wine with Jade Immortal without much care.
A willowy figure sat at the other end of the table.
She was dressed in a long gown in the shade of sunrise-yellow, and her delicate facial features were impeccable,
her beauty transcendental. There was an air of sacred aura surrounding her.
It was Princess Dorothy.
Princess Dorothy sat uncomfortably; her flawless face seemed annoyed. She was not interested in the table of
delicacies in front of her as her stomach fluttered with anxiety.
Darryl was supposed to bring her to Grunt, but he was drinking in a restaurant.
Princess Dorothy was tempted to yell at Darryl but held herself back as Jade Immortal was present.
Jade Immortal sipped the wine, his eyes formed into two crescent moons as he said to Darryl, "I can't believe the
Nine Mainland have such great wine, too. This trip is definitely worthwhile!"
Darryl smiled and asked, "Master, has a god like yourself never been to the Nine Mainland?"
