chapter 2918
Darryl was about to rip Jackie's dress off.
Pitter-patter...
Suddenly, they heard footsteps from the mountain ahead.
Darryl raised his gaze and frowned. It was a group of about seven to eight Holy Saint Sect's disciples. They marched in line and were approaching their location.
Jackie and the other Sect Master trembled; they had mixed feelings about what was about to happen.
'B*stard Darryl! Would he search my body in front of the Holy Saint Sect disciples?'
"Tsk, tsk, tsk!"
Darryl chuckled when he noticed the change in Jackie's expression and said sarcastically, "Is the dignified goddess from the Yellow Sea Continent afraid now?"
"You—" Jackie bit her lips, she was embarrassed and angry. "Are you going to let me go?"
"Do you think it will happen?" Darryl said, " How could I let you go so easily when you willingly present yourself to me?" Then, Darryl walked forward and carried Jackie and Sect Master, one in each his arm, and dashed into the woods nearby.
The Holy Saint Sect disciples on patrol duty did not worry Darryl, but he decided to hide to be safe.
After all, he had to be on his guard if Jackie cried for help and attracted unnecessary attention.
Jackie and the Sect Master were trembling when Darryl wrapped his arms around them; they felt humiliated. However, they were unable to struggle as their acupoints were sealed. 1
Darryl put Jackie and the Sect Master down when they arrived at a secluded hideout.
"Stay here. I'll come back once I'm done with my business!" Darryl said with a smile. He hid the two of them well and looked into the distance at the mountain.
Even though the Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda was important to Darryl, he was not worried. After all, he had subdued Jackie.
There was no need for him to insist on getting his hands on the pagoda. The most important thing then was to explore the Holy Saint Sect and find clues of Lu Dongbin's whereabouts. He needed that to help Yvette, Dax and the rest recover their strength. 7
F*ck!
After threading his way through some distance, Darryl frowned when he noticed that many disciples were there, 'why are there so many of them on patrol duty?'
Darryl saw the disciples everywhere on the mountain road leading up to the altar. The road was heavily guarded.
After Alan became the Sect Master, he purged the Holy Saint Sect Altar of unsatisfactory members to secure his position as the new leader. At the same time, the situation in the Nine Mainland had been unstable, so Alan stepped up security to prevent other forces from invading the Holy Saint Sect.
'They would discover me easily if I walked up the road in plain sight.' Darryl muttered to himself; he took a deep breath. He decided to sneak up the mountain through the back route.
It was a good thing he used to be a Holy Saint Sect disciple, so he knew a little about the surroundings around the altar. He knew that there was a hidden path at the back of the mountain. The trail was steep; one might fall to one's death if not careful, but it was not a challenge for Darryl.
When Darryl finally reached the back of the mountain, he took a deep breath. At the same time, he spotted an unaccompanied disciple in front of him.
'A lone ranger? Excellent!'
Darryl was thinking about reaching out to someone to ask something, so he went over without hesitation when he saw the lone disciple.
