chapter 2882
Without hesitation, Darryl walked out of the room with Cynthia in his arms. He slipped past the guards and flew away from the Royal City.
Phew!
Darryl breathed a sigh of relief as he flew out of the Royal city, but he also felt a little complicated on the inside.
After he saved Cynthia, Darryl learned that Lord Kenny put the palace on a stricter measure; it would be difficult for him to sneak in again.
'Forget it; I'll take Cynthia to Ambrose first and make plans for later.'
"Hey!"
Suddenly, Cynthia asked, "Why did you come back here after you've run away with that woman during the day?" She felt awkward to be held by Darryl and desperately tried to change the subject to resolve the embarrassment.
"Oh..."
Darryl replied without even thinking about it. " I'm here to save my wife." Whenever he thought of Monica, Darryl felt helpless.
Cynthia thought that Darryl was teasing her. Her beautiful face turned red, her body trembled in anger, and she immediately raised her hand and pinched Darryl's waist.
"Ouch!"
Darryl drew in a sharp breath and glared at Cynthia as he asked in astonishment, "oi!
Why did you pinch me?" Cynthia was more feisty than Yennie though they were both Nine Saint Oracles.
Cynthia bit her lip tight and glared at Darryl. She said, "Cut your nonsense, or I'll kill you! Who is your wife? You'd better watch your words!" ’

Darryl knew that Cynthia had misunderstood what he said. He smiled bitterly. "I did come to rescue my wife. Her name is Monica. Lord Kenny has placed her under house arrest in the palace. What? Do you think that I was referring to you?"
Cynthia felt embarrassed and regretted her quick lips; she bowed her head and said, "I'm sorry I've misunderstood you." ’
Suddenly, Cynthia convulsed; she felt as if her body was on fire. The drug's effect had started.
"How are you?" Darryl asked; he was startled.
Darryl could feel Cynthia's body heat; it felt like she had been set ablaze, and he panicked. Cynthia's lovely face grimaced in pain; she looked around and told Darryl, "Quick! There is a cold pond in the northwest direction of the Royal City. Take me there quickly."
Cynthia was abashed when she suggested he take her to the cold pond. She knew she had been heavily drugged, and she might lose her mind when the effects kicked in completely, rendering things to happen between her and Darryl involuntarily.
She had to make sure that did not happen. A Nine Saint Oracle had to practice virtue. Once she had a relationship with a man, 80 percent of her skills would be passed on to the man. 2
On the way to the Royal city, Cynthia passed a cold pond with no sunshine all year round, and the water was chilly. It was perfect for removing the toxins from her body.
"Very well!"
Darryl nodded, then turned around and flew in the direction that Cynthia had pointed out.
They arrived at the cold pond after he flew for about half an hour with Cynthia in his arms.
Mountains surrounded the cold pond, and the water was clear and freezing. The cultivators who practiced the chilly internal energy would definitely benefit from that pond. They would get twice the result with half the effort.
