Chapter 5039
Darryl was not done. He took a sip from his teacup and said, "Miss Swanson. I'm only
forgiving him this once and only because of you.
"I'm sure you know your junior brother's temper better than mine. After he's woken up, tell
him that if he abuses his power to bully people again in the future or disrespects me one
more time, he won't be as lucky as he was today. Got it?"
Darryl was smiling as he spoke, but his eyes shone brightly.
Indeed, Darryl had meant everything he had said. If it had not been for Sandra's presence,
there was no way Darryl would have forgiven Ronny. He would have at least taken Ronny's
powers away.
Whew...
Sandra's heart raced with panic as she met Darryl's eyes.
Derrick's gaze was razor-sharp.
He was much more than a man who knew a little about medicine. With a gaze like that,
could he be someone with hidden power-much more than a good-for-nothing?
Sandra had believed the man in front of him to be the Stanford family's son- in-law, the
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇttown's gambling addict, up until that point.
At that thought, Sandra did not dare to retaliate as she nodded hastily." Don't worry, Sect
Master. I'll pass your words on to my junior brother." 'Alright!'
Darryl nodded. His gaze calmed as he continued to grin. "It'd be best if you are fair in your
judgment and hold no biases! Come on, don't just stand there. Have a seat."
As he spoke, Darryl had his men carry Ronny away and usher the Pure Yang Division
disciples out of the Wild Crane Restaurant.
Only Darryl and Sandra were left in the massive room.
There was a little tension in the air, possibly because of the massage that had happened.
Sandra tried to calm her feelings, settling herself into a chair under Darryl's warm
hospitality.
Darryl was in quite a good mood. He smiled and asked, "I heard the Heavenly Dragon Sect
recently uncovered an ancient tomb and found a good number of pills. Is that so?" "Yes!"
Sandra rushed to stand, retrieving an exquisite box that she opened before placing it in
front of the table before Darryl.
There were ten colorful pills.
Sandra’s gaze toward Darryl was full of hopefulness and doubt.
She was hopeful. According to her master, those pills were considered precious. Some of
them could mend wounds and save lives, and some were useful in increasing one’s
powers.
One of the pills might be enough to start a war in the world.
She was doubtful about Derrick Darby, who had suddenly become a sect master. She
knew he had some knowledge in medicine, but did he know enough about pills? Would he
be able to tell if the pills would work?
Whew!
Darryl was entirely at ease while Sandra was giving him a hard look.
The next second, he glanced at the pills inside the box before shaking his head. "I'm afraid
you've come all this way for nothing. None of those pills are still effective. They're as good
as mere decorations for that lovely box."
What?
Sandra heard the words, and her aspirations were instantly destroyed as if she had just
been dipped into a pail of freezing water. She trembled as she stood, saying in a
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmdisbelieving tone, ' All of them have lost their effects?"
Sandra could not hide the suspicion in her tone.
That could not be, right?
Her master had called for people to seal the pills in a box the second they had found
them, and no one had unsealed them since then. Even if they had lost effect, there was no
way they were gone entirely and unusable.
Also, she had come a long way from the Heavenly Dragon Sect, hoping to return with good
news for her master. What would she do then?
Sandra wanted to ask Darryl if he knew anything about pills. Yet she stopped herself at the
very last second.
At the look on Sandra's face, Darryl smiled as he said, "You still don't believe me?"
Darryl knew how to tell what someone was feeling from the look on their face. He knew
that Sandra probably thought that the sect master in front of her had to be a fake.
Sandra shook her head, embarrassed. "No... I don't mean that at all. I just think..."
Before she could finish her sentence, Darryl cut her off. "Think about it.
How could all those pills have lost effect, right? I can't prove much with just words. Take
those pills and come with me.”
Darryl emptied his teacup before getting up and leaving the Wild Crane Restaurant.
