The Ultimate Husband (Darryl and Lily Lyndon) novel Chapter 2230

Woo!

Dax took a deep breath and sat down again after he heard Chester’s words.

“Gonggong!”

Darryl smiled and said to Gonggong, “I will sign this on one condition.”

“What is it? Tell me,” Gonggong replied without any thought.

Gonggong was extremely pleased. As long as Darryl agreed to surrender, then she would have completed her mission. By then, she would have done great work for Yang Jian, and the credit would be hers.

Darryl stood up slowly. He looked at Gonggong and said, “I want you to release my family and the other cultivators immediately. Then, when they’ve returned home safely, I’ll sign it immediately.”

Darryl pretended to agree with Gonggong because he had considered Yvette and the other cultivators’ safety. Otherwise, he would have refused directly.

Pfft!

Gonggong was stunned, then chuckled. She looked at Darryl playfully and said, “Darryl, do you think I’m a child? If I let them go and you go back on your words, what happens then?”

She shook her head determinedly. “I won’t let them go before you sign the letter. Give me a different condition.”

“Very well then!”

Darryl looked disappointed. He smiled bitterly and said, “If that is the case, I won’t ask for much. Why don’t you take me to the prison and let me have a look at them? If I can see that they are safe, then I won’t have to worry. How about that?”

Darryl’s expression was sincere, but his eyes flashed with cunningness.

He wanted to enter the prison to see Yvette and the others. He was only testing Gonggong when he asked for their release. He never expected her to agree to that.

Uh…

Gonggong bit her lips and hesitated.

Woola!

She had just left when the group immediately surrounded Darryl; they looked at him in confusion. Then they asked their questions at the same time.

“Young Master, what are you doing?”

“Yes, Darryl, what are you thinking?”

“Darryl, do you already have a plan?”

At that moment, Susan, Chester, the Seven Fairies, and everyone else were all extremely curious about his decision.

Darryl smiled and signaled for them to be quiet. Then, he smiled bitterly and said, “With the current situation, what other choice do I have? I can only minimize our losses.”

Then, Darryl scanned the hall and continued to say, “I have decided to give up Mid City temporarily. We’ll move to the Wicked Valley in the northern suburbs and redeploy our defenses. The terrain there is dangerous and complicated. But, we can use that to our advantage, and we can keep the North Moana Army at bay for some time.”
