Chapter 5184
As he spoke, Darryl scratched at his head. "I'm not getting an ounce of sincerity." "You..."
Vincent could hardly contain his anger at the look on Darryl's face. F*ck, he had said sorry,
did he not? What more did Darryl want?
At the indignant look on Vincent's face, Darryl smiled lightly. "We agreed earlier that you
would serve me tea on top of apologizing. Did you forget that?"
Vincent held back his anger, pouring a cup of tea and bringing it to Darryl.
Darryl was not going to forgive him so easily. Nevertheless, he showed no intention of
taking the cup as he asked, "Is this how you apologize to your master when you've made a
mistake, Vincent?"
Huh?
Vincent's expression darkened as he said in a displeased tone, "What are you trying to
say?"
Darryl smiled. "I'm at about the same status as your master. Since you've made a mistake,
you have to be disciplined." "I don't think it's too much for me to ask you to kneel when
you serve me the tea, is it?"
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtVincent's anger skyrocketed. He wanted nothing more than to fling the cup at Darryl and
leave with a brush of his sleeves. Unfortunately, Zacho and the others were there, so he
held back his fury.
"Fine. I’ll kneel."
The next second, the words left Vincent's lips as he dropped to his knees, kneeling before
Darryl and holding the cup high.
"I offended you with my words earlier, Sect Master. Please be generous, and forgive me for
my insolence."
Truthfully, Vincent did not wish to kneel to Darryl, but he had no choice. He had come to
the North Sea Galaxy to talk business, and would be laughed at by them for sure if he
were to go back on his word. That would only do more damage to the Heavenly Ocean
Sect's reputation.
Despite the apology leaving his lips, Vincent felt nothing but murderous.
F*ck! How dare Darryl humiliate him like that? He would make sure that Darryl paid the
price in the future for sure.
As he finally kneeled, Darryl put on an expression of great difficulty as he took the cup
from Vincent. "Alright! That's more like it. I guess I'll forgive you because you're so
sincere."
Darryl's arrogance made Vincent almost explode with anger. However, Darryl paid him no
mind, continuing to drink and laugh with Zacho and ignoring Vincent completely.
The next hour was spent with much joy and laughter between Zacho and Darryl. Since his
wife had gotten the antidote, Zacho was nothing but overjoyed and continuously made
Darryl drink.
Next to him, Gigi had drunk quite a bit as well.
On the other hand, Vincent sat still as a rock and was silent most of the time. 1
After the banquet, everyone retreated back to their rooms.
"Brother Vincent."
Gigi called out to Vincent while no one looked as they left the main hall.
Vincent was in an awful mood then, so he lit up instantly at Gigi calling out to him. "What's
up, Sister Gigi?"
As he spoke, Vincent could not help but take in the sight. Her face was flushed slightly red
from the liquor, making her look absolutely breathtaking.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmGigi bit her lip lightly, hesitating before she spoke. "Brother Vincent, please don't hold a
grudge against Sect Master Darryl for what happened just now. He's just like that, always
wanting the upper hand. You know, he's actually a pretty nice guy."
As she spoke, Gigi silently observed Vincent for a response as her gaze flashed with
expectation.
Gigi could hardly care for personal affairs like that, but Darryl was the head of the Elixir
Sector, and Vincent was the head pupil of the Heavenly Ocean Sect. Both sects were
considered allies, and tension was definitely not desirable.
It was fine before she mentioned Darryl. Vincent's anger flared up once again.
At the thought of the humiliation he had faced in the main hall before, Vincent spat
angrily, "Don't bring him up, Sister Gigi. He's good for nothing. I don't know how he
became the head of the Elixir Sector. I'm sure it was sheer dumb luck."
As the words rang through the air, Gigi said in a displeased tone, "Quit with your
nonsense. He's the real deal. I saw it with my own eyes. He's able to use ten pill stoves at
the same time."
As she spoke, Gigi could not hide the awe in her gaze.
