Chapter 4164
However, General Grunt did not leave, and instead, he remained standing, but he was hesitant to
speak.
The letter he passed to the Nine Heaven Emperor was given to him by Solar General, who got it from
Darryl. Moreover, General Grunt had taken the credit. Sooner or later, the Nine Heaven Emperor
would find out the truth. Then, he would not forgive him. How could General Grunt remain calm?
Seeing General Grunt standing still, the Nine Heaven Emperor frowned. ’ Why are you still standing
there? Is there anything else?"
General Grunt pondered and he looked hesitant to speak. "Your Majesty, there's something that I'm
uncertain whether I should tell you."
The Nine Heaven Emperor sighed and grunted, "Hurry up. stop beating around the bush."
General Grunt nodded and looked conflicted as he said, "I heard that Darryl surrendered himself to
the fiend race."
The Nine Heaven Emperor's eyes flickered with coldness and remained silent.
General Grunt added, "Your Majesty, at the Sealed Fiend Mountain, it was my fault for not
stopping Darryl in time and causing him to be trapped in the blood sacrifice. I thought he
was really dead. Then, when Archfiend Antigonus brought him to threaten you, I thought
he was an impersonator."
He spoke eloquently and at the same time, he was observing the changes in the Nine
Heaven Emperor's face.
The Nine Heaven Emperor had a straight face. When Archfiend Antigonus used Darryl to
threaten him, he had already realized that it was the real Darryl. However, for the sake of
his dignity and the safety of the Imperial Sky Palace, the Nine Heaven Emperor had not
expressed his opinion.
Until General Grunt suddenly appeared and claimed that he was just an impersonator, the
Nine Heaven Emperor then adopted his point of view without hesitation.
That way, he had protected his dignity and also the Imperial Sky Palace.
At that moment, General Grunt had once again brought up that incident. The Nine Heaven
Emperor was not a fool and said, "Based on what you said, back then it was really Darryl
and now he has surrendered himself to the fiend race?"
General Grunt nodded and pretended. "Yes. I assume that Darryl saw we didn’t save him
and even claimed that he was an impersonator. He must have held a grudge against US
and that's why he surrendered to the fiend race."
Then, he got onto his knees again and said, full of guilt, "Your Majesty, this is my fault.
Please punish me."
The Nine Heaven Emperor sighed and waved his hand. "It's fine. You weren't aware of the
situation. Plus, it was also to protect the Imperial Sky Palace. I can't blame you."
He thought about it again and said, ‘ Perhaps this is Darryl's fate. If I had known he was
the real Darryl and saved him, the Imperial Sky Palace would be doomed. It's fine. Let's
not talk about this anymore."
Since he had given up on Darryl, his whereabouts no longer had anything to do with the
Godly Region.
"Yes, Your Majesty. Thank you, Your Majesty, for your mercy," General Grunt quickly
answered and with tears of joy.
Then, he slowly stood up and said, "There's one more thing."
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"What is it!" the Nine Heaven Emperor said.
General Grunt hesitated and said, "Your Majesty, since the last time we fought with the fiend race,
though we relied on the Innate Formation and defeated them, the Grand Weapons and generals
underneath had low morale and they were panicking.
"I heard many rumors that Archfiend Antigonus would break into the Imperial Sky Palace sooner or
later. They even said, instead of going against the fiend race, we should just surrender now."
Hearing that, the Nine Heaven Emperor became infuriated and his eyes flickered with rage. "Who's
spreading these rumors? Despicable! That person deserves to die."
Sabotaging the spirit of the military was taboo during a war. How could the Nine Heaven Emperor
remain calm?
General Grunt was shocked by the Nine Heaven Emperor's anger and quickly said, "Your Majesty,
don't be angry. These rumors have been going around the Imperial Sky Palace, so I've been
investigating them. But, as I was looking into the mater, I unexpectedly discovered something."
"What is it?" The Nine Heaven Emperor had a dull look on his face as he was still raging.
General Grunt inhaled deeply and said, "I found out that Solar General has been secretly meeting
Darryl. I'm guessing that Solar General lost his confidence in the Imperial Sky Palace and wants
Darryl to be his referral to surrender to the fiend race after seeing him do that."
