Chapter 2624
''Melody, what's the matter? Did you sprain your ankle?'' Darryl reacted quickly and helped Melody up with a smile. At the same time, he blinked at her.
Melody was smart. She immediately understood Darryl's signal. She knew that he did not want to reveal his identity.
''I was careless-'' Melody bit her lips and let out a long sigh. ''I'm sorry to have made a fool of myself.''
Phew...
Everyone secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
It turned out that Melody knelt accidentally; they thought that Darryl was a hidden talent.
The kid had just joined the Blood Thorn Mercenary Team. He was only an unknown person, even if he were powerful. How could he be someone Blue Rose admired?
Furthermore, the two of them had fought each other fiercely on the battle stage.
''The alliance leader probably wants to discuss some cultivation techniques with that person. Even though that kid is an unknown person, he is quite powerful,'' someone in the crowd said.
All eyes suddenly gathered on Darryl. A lot of discussions were going on about him. ''That kid is just lucky.''
''Yes, he probably beat Shaun by chance...''
''The alliance leader is probably curious about him, so she wanted to find out more about him. She probably would not look at him again once she's no longer interested.''
Almost everyone despised Darryl from the bottom of their hearts. They thought Darryl was an unknown person, and they refused to believe that he would have a relationship with Melody.
They did not know that the man in front of them was Melody's idol, the famous Elysium Gate Sect Master.
''Shut up.''
Melody could not listen to them anymore. Her eyebrows were furrowed. She looked around and said coldly, ''Who told you to come with me? I only wanted to ask him something. What are you discussing over there? Hurry up and go!''
Melody wanted to tell Jamie and the others that the unknown person they mocked was the famous Elysium Gate Sect Master, Darryl. She held back because Darryl hinted to her not to do that.
Err...
Jamie and others looked embarrassed; they had angered the alliance leader. They quickly shut their mouths and then left silently.
Lillian, who was on the side, also recovered her senses. She was nervous because she thought Melody wanted to harm Darryl.
''Melody, the tournament is over. What else do you want?'' Lillian asked.
Melody was stunned. She did not know how to respond to that because she was unsure of the relationship between Lillian and Darryl.
''It 's okay.''
Darryl smiled and comforted Lillian. ''You should go. Let me talk to this girl. Don't worry about me; nothing will happen.''
Darryl was not very familiar with Melody, and there was probably nothing much to say, but he could not simply dismiss Melody as she had found out his identity. Otherwise, he would risk Melody exposing his whereabouts.
Lillian was relieved after she heard Darryl's assurance. She nodded and turned to leave. ''Sect Master Darby!''
Melody could not hide her excitement once Lillian had left. She said to Darryl, ''I finally see you again... Do you know that I admire you very much...'' Melody was delighted when she said that.
