Chapter 5338
"The two pills should be worth quite a bit of money. I hope you gentleman will take it and
spare my life."
As Darryl spoke, he had a smile on his face, and he looked relaxed.
The art of Elixir in the Cryolet Continent had been lost for almost a thousand years. Even a
mere pill like the Spirit Returning Pill would be worth a lot of money.
'Haha...'
Looking at the two pills in Darryl's hand, Rachelle's eyes flickered, and deep down, she
could not help but sneer.
'Darryl isn't stupid. He actually thought of using those pills to save his life.'
On the other hand, Alfredo and the subchiefs were shocked. They were lost for words as
they stared at the pills in Darryl's hand.
The art of Elixir had been lost for almost a thousand years, and the guy in front of them
had two pills. How could they not be shocked?
A few seconds later, Alfredo was the first to gather his thoughts. He could not hide the
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtexcitement deep down as he stared at Darryl.
"Is this the Spirit Returning Pill? Can it quench the meridians?" 'If this is really effective,
then these could be used at critical moments.'
Darryl grinned when he heard that question. "Of course. My life is in your hands now. How
would I dare to lie to you?"
Alfredo nodded in agreement and exclaimed excitedly, "Okay! Bring it here."
Darryl grinned and took two steps forward as he was about to hand over the Spirit
Returning Pills.
Suddenly, Rawlins' eyes flickered and stopped him. "Boss, there are many bad people in
the community. How would we know if he's really giving us the Spirit Returning Pills? What
if these are poison?"
As Alfredo's most loyal subordinate, Rawlins was extremely cautious in everything he did.
Moreover, he was an intelligent man. Previously, thanks to his suggestion, the entire
cottage had avoided a few ambushes.
After hearing what Rawlins said, Alfredo inhaled deeply and looked at Darryl with a solemn
face. "Dude, are you trying to poison me? Tell me honestly." ‘You fool!'
Darryl cussed at him silently, but on the outside, he forced a smile and said, "Gentleman,
my life is in your hands. Why would I poison you? If you don't believe me, I'll take one
myself."
Then, he put a Spirit Returning Pill into his mouth.
At that moment, everyone stared at Darryl and waited quietly for his response.
Rachelle kept a straight face.
Unlike others, deep down, Rachelle knew that if others were to take out a few pills, they
would certainly be doubted. However, Darryl was the head of the Elixir Sector of the Pure
Yang Division. Therefore, it was nothing odd of him to take out a few pills.
Quickly, five minutes had passed. Darryl stood there as he looked normal and did not
show signs of being poisoned.
Alfredo inhaled deeply and realized that he had overthought the situation. At the same
time, he also felt pity that one of the pills was wasted.
Rawlins and the others also secretly felt relieved.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"Gentleman, do you believe me now?" Darryl smiled as he asked.
Rawlins nodded. "Hmm. Looks like this guy is quite sincere. Not bad, not bad..."
As he spoke, he took the other pill from Darryl's hand and carefully kept it.
Then, Darryl put on a pleasing look and said as he tried to probe the situation,
"Gentleman, can you let me go now?" 'Hmm...'
Alfredo combed through his beard and said cunningly, "Though this pill is valuable and
worth your life, I can't let you go easily since you've come to the cottage. What if I let you
go and you bring the authorities here? Wouldn't I be causing trouble for myself?"
Hearing that, Darryl smiled. "Gentleman, don't worry. I won't expose you after leaving this
place. I have the last few pills with me, and I've given all of them to you as a token of
honor to all the gentlemen here."
Then, he took a few pills again and put them on Alfredo's table with a flattering face.
After being in the community for so many years, Darryl knew that mountain bandits like
Alfredo were extremely greedy. One could only negotiate with them after giving them
many benefits.
