Chapter 4108
That was a pretty good spot.
Oliver turned to command the Black Tortoise warriors as he took in the sight before him. "Let's take a rest here. Don't forget to be on the lookout, and keep your guard up at all times."
■Yes."
The thousands of Black Tortoise warriors spread out immediately. They began to recuperate in various locations around the valley.
Oliver brought Leia to the clearing under the rock.
Once they were settled, Oliver scrambled to unseal Leia's acupoint. In a tone dripping with concern, he asked, "Leia, are you in any pain? Are you alright?"
"I'm fine!” Leia shook her head, unable to hide her worry. "I don't know how Honorable Master Darby's doing. Oliver, you have to think of something."
Despite having escaped danger, Leia's mind was still on Darryl.
F*ck!
Oliver's expression remained unchanged while his blood boiled.
What was so great about Darryl Darby? Was he worthy enough for Leia to be fretting over him in a situation like that?
Oliver looked like he was in great distress. "Don't worry, Leia. I was thinking about that the entire way here. Grunt's pretty powerful, and we're no match for him if we fight him. Rescuing Honorable Master Darby would come with a huge risk; it's almost impossible."
Panic flooded through Leia. "Well, what are we going to do? If all else fails, we should go ask for my father's help."
Yes, the only viable way out was to consult the White Tiger King.
"We mustn't do that!"
Oliver scrambled to reject her idea almost immediately. "We mustn't do that, Leia. What if we run into fiend folks before we even get there?"
Oliver wished nothing more than for Darryl's demise. Of course, he could hardly care to think of a plan.
'What should we do, then?" Leia asked helplessly.
Oliver pretended to be deep in thought. Then, he procured a pill, speaking in a serious tone. "I think this is something we've got to fix ourselves, Leia. This is the Black Tortoise Soul Restoration Pill. When you get your energy back, we'll set out to rescue Honorable Master Darby. I believe we'll be able to succeed if we work together!"
As he spoke, Oliver passed the pill to Leia with a smile. His eyes shone ominously.
The Black Tortoise Soul Restoration Pill?
Leia trembled as she stared at the pill in her hand, overcome with emotion.
Each tribe from the Four Congenial Beasts possessed a specialized medicine, and the Black Tortoise tribe's was the Black Tortoise Soul Restoration Pill.
Leia blinked as she snapped back to her senses. She picked up the pill, giving it a light sniff.
It really was the Black Tortoise Soul Restoration Pill.
Leia could smell the scent particular to only the Black Tortoise Soul Restoration Pill. As the White Tiger King's daughter, Leia was a young woman with great wisdom. She had also taken the pill when she was younger. There was no surprise in her remembering it.
"Oliver."
Leia was overwhelmed with emotion as she looked at Oliver. "Thank you."
