Darryl’s heart pounded. ‘I wasn’t the clue he picked up, right?’
‘No way. I only took the elixirs and pills when I came out of Emperor Hou Yi’s cultivation cell. I’m pretty sure I left no clue behind.’
“So, you discovered the reason for the Emperor’s death? Let’s go then!” Yang Jian said coldly. Then, he jumped onto his Howling Celestial Dog and hurried toward the palace.
Tap, tap, tap…
Gonggong took advantage of Darryl’s carelessness—she reached out and sealed his acupoints. Celine and Song Qian were also not spared as she did the same to them.
“Take all of them back!” Gonggong’s lips parted slightly as she delivered the command to the royal guard captain.
The captain responded quickly. “Yes, Gonggong!” Then he walked toward Darryl and tied him up.
“Ugh!”
Darryl looked at Gonggong helplessly and said, “Gonggong, you said that you’d take me only. The two of them are innocent!”
Gonggong snorted and sneered at him. “Do you think you have the right to negotiate any terms with me?”
Darryl was angry, but at the same time, he was also extremely depressed. Gonggong was an unreasonable person, even though she was the Water God. ‘Gonggong, you better watch out. Let’s see how I’ll treat you when you fall into my hands.”
Gonggong was not bothered by Darryl’s dissatisfaction; she tapped her toes on the ground and hurried toward the palace.
The royal guard captain followed closely behind her as he grabbed onto Darryl, Celine and Queenie.
Soon, the three of them were taken to North Moana Palace!
It was dawn, and the sky brightened up gradually; Darryl and the ladies were not locked up immediately. They were taken to the Emperor’s chamber, which was also his cultivation cell.
Hiss!
Darryl took in a sharp breath of cold air when he saw the scene before him!
