Darryl nodded and led the way towards the Central Army Camp. Rama and Donoghue followed closely behind Chesterand the others. “Young Master, please have some tea!”
When they arrived at the Central Army Camp, tea was quickly prepared. Darryl smiled at Donoghue.
Donoghue had a look of gratitude on his face as he drank his tea. “Young Master!”
At this moment, Chester could not help but ask curiously, “The sea region between the Earthly Yuan Continent and the Apocalypse Continent is not very wide. Everyone else is dead. It is fortunate that you survived. But…why did you only return now? What happened?”
As his voice faded, everyone around them looked curiously .
That’s right. From the Earth Circle Continent, crossing the sea to the Apocalypse Continent, and then reaching the Chaos Mountain Range, the fastest was three days and the latest was five days. However, this Life Transformation Realm took a total of thirteen days from the moment they set off until they appeared.
Donoghue smiled bitterly. “I won’t hide it from anyone. When the storm hit, I fell into the sea and eventually drifted to a deserted island. Later on, I met pirates. It can be said that misfortune never comes alone.”
So that was what happened.
Hearing those words, everyone nodded in realization.
At that, Donoghue revealed a smile and continued, “There’s a saying that goes, ‘A blessing in disguise’. It might be fate that allowed me to survive this calamity. At that time, I was fighting with the pirates and was saved by a member of the Sea Mackie Clan. I was even brought to Coral Island where their tribe resided.”
“There, I received a shocking piece of news. It turned out that Emperor Xuanyuan had expected the Demon Tribe to cross the Chaotic Mountains Range. So he left the Sea Mackie Clan a treasure to be safeguarded. However, he placed the key to the treasure chest in the Chaotic Mountains.”
“This matter concerns the safety of the Nine Provinces. At that time, I asked the Sea Mackie Clan’s Chief to hand me the treasure so that I could bring it back to the Primal Chaotic Mountain Range. Unfortunately, the Chief didn’t believe me.”
Donoghue had a serious look on his face as he secretly observed everyone’s reactions.
That’s right. These words were all fabricated by Donoghue. He knew that it would be very difficult for him to investigate in secret, so he might as well make up a lie. If someone in the Nine Continents Barracks obtained the item in the stone box and heard his words, they would definitely be unable to remain calm.
In truth, Donoghue had already made a bet before coming here. He was betting that Ambrose and Eira had yet to arrive at the Chaotic Mountain Range. Now, he had made the right bet. As long as Ambrose and his sister were not around, he could say whatever he wanted to without any qualms.
Whoosh!
In an instant, the entire Central Army Camp was in an uproar. Everyone was stunned and incomparably shocked.
So…Emperor Xuanyuan had left behind a treasure for his descendants. As expected of the leader of the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors, he had such deep foresights.
At that moment, no one doubted Donoghue’s words. After all, he was Rama’s disciple. There was no need to lie to everyone.
Swish!
Darryl the most excited. He stood up immediately and looked at Donoghue closely. “Little Master, is what you said true?”
