The Ultimate Husband (Darryl and Lily Lyndon) novel Chapter 2390

“Zhang Jue!” Gonggong trembled in exasperation at Zhang Jue’s order to capture her. “Don’t you dare try to make that about you; you know deep down whether I’ve betrayed North Moana. You are the traitor who wanted to obtain power and destroy our alliance with the Nine Mainland in His Majesty’s absence.” Gonggong tapped her feet on the ground and leaped into the air elegantly to face the hundreds of soldiers headed toward her.

Gonggong knew that Zhang Jue had been suspicious about her for a long time, so what happened that day was merely an excuse to get rid of her. She also knew that even if she submitted to Zhang Jue, he would not let her live. If that were the case, she might as well pick a stance and go against him instead.

In the blink of an eye, Gonggong was swarmed by hundreds of soldiers. She could have defeated them easily without breaking a sweat, but since they still needed the soldiers for their battle with the Raksasa Army, she only pushed them off her.

Darryl observed the fight between Gonggong and the soldiers with a frown. His cold eyes fixated on Zhang Jue as he searched his head for countermeasures against him. Zhang Jue was too cold-blooded, and Gonggong had always been loyal to the North Moana continent, yet he had framed her as a traitor and attacked her without any hesitation for his own benefits.

Next to him, Chester, Yvette, and the others could no longer stand the absurdity.

“Darryl!” Dax yelled, “Zhang Jue has gone too far this time; he’s manipulating the truth in his favor. Let’s take care of him.”

“I agree.” Chester nodded in agreement. “Once he has dealt with Gonggong, we are going to be next. We might well act now instead of sitting around for that.”

Chester would usually advise against reckless advancement, but Zhang Jue had been too despicable. First, he had set Darryl up against their mutual enemy and almost caused their annihilation. Then, he was there to create more trouble.

Of course, Chester was not blinded by anger either. Since they had kept the Raksasa King’s daughter as their hostage, they would not act so rashly against them.

“Okay!” Darryl nodded, and the Heavenly Halberd appeared with a crisp sound. He pointed it toward the North Moana army and commanded, “Heed my order, attack! Strike to disable and do your best not to kill them.”

Even though he was frustrated, he could remain cool-headed to a certain degree. The fight with the North Moana Army was inevitable. Still, they must minimize the casualties to preserve the strength of the Nine Mainland for fending off the Raksasa Tribe in future battles.

“Forward!” Waves of battle cries erupted from the army as they drew their weapons and charged toward the North Moana Army. Everyone was engaged in heated battles within the blink of an eye.
