What?
Queenie was stunned when she heard that. She looked quizzically at Celine, and then at Darryl.
'What's going on with Master? She's usually very clear with her love-hate relationship. If someone provoked her, she would make sure that person suffered.'
'Why was she not angry after suffering in the hands of the Four Dragons and Four Phoenixes? She even told Darryl to take action against them. More importantly, she was taking him to the Heaven Union Sect before that, right? How did Darryl earn his trust in just a blink of an eye?'
'Did something happen between Master and Darryl?'
Just as Queenie pondered that, Darryl smiled and nodded. "Okay, then you both should go quickly! I'll deal with the Four Dragons and Four Phoenixes!"
Darryl told Celine, "By the way, forget the grievances between the Heaven Union Sect and me. I won't go to Sect Master Sonya; just tell her never to mess with me again in the future."
He wanted to let bygones be bygones after he reached an agreement with Celine.
After all, Sonya was Celine's friend.
"Very well!"
Celine did not hesitate; she smiled and nodded in agreement.
She was happy to note that Darryl was so open-minded; it was something very rare.
"Oh, right!"
Darryl smiled and said, "My internal strength is still sealed."
Without his internal strength, how could he deal with the Four Dragons and Four Phoenixes later?
Celine smiled apologetically. "I forgot about that."
Celine walked toward him slowly; her tender hand tapped on Darryl lightly to unlock his internal energy.
After that, Celine beckoned at Queenie. "Come, let's go."
"Oh!"
Queenie responded and was about to leave from the back door with Celine.
"Ugh!"
Suddenly, Darryl thought of something; he smiled at Celine's back. "Don't forget about our agreement."
Celine smiled, nodded and said, "Don't worry, I won't forget it."
Then, Celine turned and left without another look backward.
'Agreement?'
