Parker bit her lips as she looked at Darryl. Then, she said, âI hope that you wonât blame us for the
misunderstanding. If you are ever in any trouble in the future, all you have to do is say the word, and the Famed
Sword Manor will be there to help you out.â
Parkerâs exquisite face was filled with sincerity when she said that.
Darryl was an influential figure. She had almost damaged their relationship due to a misunderstanding, so she must
mend it well.
âSure!â
Darryl nodded as he waved goodbye to Parker.
The Famed Sword Manor had unparalleled skills in weapon forging, so their alliance would only bring him good
fortune.
A few minutes later, they were on the hillside a few kilometers from the Famed Sword Manor. Darryl stopped in his
tracks, turned his head, and looked at Jackie with a smile. After that, he stared at her meaningfully.
âWhat are you trying to do?â Jackie was extremely uncomfortable under Darrylâs gaze; she was anxious.
Darryl smiled and said, âIf my guess is right, Lucas is one of your men, right? When you brought the Illusion Sound
Sect to attack the Famed Sword Manor, he was your spy?â
Swoosh!
Jackie shuddered; she was shocked to hear that.
Darryl was amazing; how did he manage to guess it?
Jackieâs eyes sparkled. She said nonchalantly, âI donât know what youâre talking about. Lucas and I have only met a
few times, and I have only rescued him once. Iâm not familiar with him!â
Jackie decided to deny her connection with Lucas.
Darryl chuckled gently. âItâs fine if you donât want to admit that. But let me warn youâthe heiress to the Famed
Sword Manor is a friend and an ally. Donât even think about doing anything to them in the future. If I were to find
out that you did anything to harm them, I would not sit idly by and do nothing. Thatâs all I have to say about that.
Itâs up to you to heed my warning or not.â
Then, Darryl smiled ambiguously at Jackie before he turned and left.
Woo!
Jackie bit her lips when she saw Darryl left. Her gorgeous face was filled with embarrassment and fury.
âDarryl Darbyâyou just wait and see. I will return all the humiliation you have made me suffer today.â

Meanwhile, at Mid City in the World Universe.
It was nighttime, and the entire Mid City was in silence.
A single three-story building stood on the cityâs southwestern corner. Many North Moana soldiers were on patrol as
they guarded the building.
That building had been used as a temporary prison by the North Moana Army.
At that moment, the captured cultivators of different sects sat in a room on one of the floors in the building; they
were dejected and down.
Yvette was in one of the corners; she looked extremely exhausted and haggard.
The Mid City was under North Moanaâs siege, and the situation was extremely bad. If Darryl did not return, the
entire World Universe might soon be in the hands of the North Moana Continent.
The more Yvette thought about it, the more anxious she felt. Suddenly, she heard footsteps from outside the door.
The footsteps were very light!
Squeak!
A few seconds later, the metal door opened silently. Then, a few figures entered the room. The leader was in silver
armor, and he looked unspeakably majesticâit was Ambrose.
His cronies stood behind him.
Woo!
Right at that moment, the people from the World Universe were suddenly stunned, but they were on their guard.
Their enemy was there late at night; it could not be anything good.
However, Yvette shuddered in delight and surprise!
Ambrose?
Yvette was extremely excited the moment she saw the young man. They had not seen each other in so many
years. At that moment, Yvette did not expect that she would meet Ambrose in such a godforsaken place with her as
a prisoner!
She still did not know that Ambrose had been with Yang Jian in all of his invasions. However, Yang Jian did not let him
get involved with their attack on the World Universe.
It seemed like the young man had matured since she last saw him many years ago.
