Chapter 2527
As the final word was delivered, Zhang Jue raised his arm and struck again.
''F*ck!'' Darryl cursed and released the White Lily Cold Flaine with a wave of his arm; it formed a white wall of flaine around hini.
The White Lily Cold Flarne? Zhang Jue was alarmed; his expression darkened as he urged his internal energy to defend against the white flame. He could sense that Darryl had becorne stronger in the past three years, and the White Lily Cold Flan1e he sumn1oned had increased in strength by folds.
Darryl seized the opportunity and ran forward; he grabbed Jackie before he ran out of the hall. '' Zhang Jue, I will return soon to repay the favor,'' his angry voice resonated through the manor; it sent chills down the spines of those who heard it.
Zhang Jue, enraged beyond words, smashed one of the chairs next to him into smithereens before he yelled, ''Go after them!'' Many of the followers sprang into the air and soared toward the direction
Darryl had fled.
Meanwhile, ahead of them, Darryl soared toward the sky with Jackie in his arms. It took more than an hour before they escaped the people that were after them. After he confirmed that they were safe, Darryl took a deep breath and landed in the forest beneath them.
''Darby!'' Jackie said with gritted teeth, ''Let me go; I don't need your help.''

She captured hiin for her own benefit and took the Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda. That was enough for
Darryl to hate her.
''You-'' Jackie was enraged by his words, but she had nothing to say to that. Thetwo fell into silence. The atIT1osphere alIT1ost suffocated thein.
Darryl could not be bothered with her at the inoinent and sat on the side as he replayed every little detail of what he saw earlier. 'F*ck, I didn't know that Zhang Jue is a ineinber of the Endless Sky Organization as well, and now that he has chased Jackie out, it will be n1ore challenging to deal with hiin once he gains coinplete control over the Endless Sky Organization.'
''Argh! '' Just as Darryl was deep in his thoughts, Jackie suddenly let out a pained cry next to him. Soniething about that sound contained a deadly ten1ptation that sent a shock through Darryl's body.
''Jackie!'' Darryl frowned and turned to look at her iinpatiently. ''Jackie, don't try to argue your way out of this; I told you-'' Before he could finish his sentence, he was in11llediately at a loss for words when he saw
