Chapter 4553

Little did Archfiend Antigonus know that Darryl was not Jade Immortal's disciple, but

instead, it was Darryl who he had sent to the Infernal Shadow Prison.

Meanwhile, Darryl fled along with the Nine Heaven Emperor and the others. Finally, they

had returned to the Imperial Sky Palace.

The Nine Heaven Emperor was a mess in his golden dragon robe while his face was

covered in bloodstains. He looked utterly miserable. He no longer had the image of the

ruler of the Godly Region.

As they arrived at the Imperial Sky Palace, the Nine Heaven Emperor was stunned at the

scene. 'Huh?'

In the humongous palace, aside from the soldiers and the royal guards, no Heavenly

Immortals were present.

Then, the Nine Heaven Emperor turned to Darryl and asked, "Audric, my fellow priest, may

I ask where is your Master and the other Heaven Immortals?"

He had realized that Darryl was just deterring Archfiend Antigonus at the Floating Island

but he could not help but ask. Priest was an honorific used in the Godly Region and it was

similar to the word fellow used in the world of cultivators in The Nine Mainland.

Darryl smiled and decided not to hide anymore.

"Your Majesty, my master, and the immortals are not here. I was just stalling Archfiend

Antigonus back at the Floating Island," he said.

After hearing from Darryl himself, the Nine Heaven Emperor exclaimed in admiration, "My

fellow priest, you are so capable and bold. It is indeed impressive."

Darryl looked humble after being complimented but deep down, he was snickering. 'The

Nine Heaven Emperor is only so polite to me because he thinks I'm Jade Immortal's

disciple. If he knew who I wasl. I'm sure he'd behave differently. Fine, I shall not make a

fuss out of it. His daughter, Princess Dorothy, helped me become reborn and sacrificed her

life. Why should I be so petty?'

As he thought about Princess Dorothy, Darryl could not help but feel a pinch in his heart.

Strangely, he did not have much affection for Princess Dorothy but after hearing from Jade

Immortal that she had surrendered her life to the Red Lotus Fayette to help him be reborn,

he felt bad.

After the small talk, Darryl thought of something and took out the fine jade transformed by

Empress Nuwa. He passed it to the Nine Heaven Emperor and said, "Your Majesty,

Empress Nuwa told me to pass this to you."

'The fine jade of fairy souls?' As the Nine Heaven Emperor received the fine jade, he could

sense a familiar aura from within. His body shuddered and then he realized.

"My Senior Sister... She..." he said, aggrieved.

As Empress Nuwa's subordinate, the Nine Heaven Emperor was familiar with her powers.

There were only a few in the Godly Region whom she would give up her fairy soul for

unless there was irreversible desperation.

Looking at the facial expression on the Nine Heaven Emperor's face, Darryl sighed deep

down and said what he had planned, "That day, I passed by the Infernal Shadow Prison

and bumped into Empress Nuwa. She said she wanted to rescue Darryl and that's why she

gave up her fairy soul..."

He was cautious as he spoke and tried not to expose his true identity. Instead, he said he

ran into the false appearance of Empress Nuwa.

"Empress Nuwa had told me everything. The truth was, that the fiend race did everything

possible to catch Darryl because of the prophecy of the Innate Spirit Stone. Darryl was the

last key to defeating the fiend race and that was why he was eventually thrown into the

Infernal Shadow Prison. And to protect Darryl, Empress Nuwa had decided to sacrifice her

fairy soul."

As he spoke, Darryl observed the changes in the Nine Heaven Emperor's facial

expressions.

'The Infernal Shadow Prison?' The Nine Heaven Emperor was shocked. He was stunned

and could not gather his thoughts for a long while.

Finally, the Nine Heaven Emperor collected his thoughts and thanked Darryl. "My fellow

priest! Thank you for bringing the fine jade of Empress Nuwa. Oh, do you know what

happened to Darryl?"

He had not favored Darryl. However, in the past, he had no choice but to marry Princess

Dorothy to him to protect the royals' reputation. When he found out that Darryl was the

last key to defeating the fiends, he had repositioned Darryl's place in his heart.

'Perhaps, I've been too biased towards Darryl,' he thought.

Darryl did not know the Nine Heaven Emperor's intentions for asking such a question.

"I'm not sure but Empress Nuwa said that after Darryl had gotten the power of her fairy

soul, he should be able to leave the Infernal Shadow Prison safely," he replied.
