Chapter 4553
Little did Archfiend Antigonus know that Darryl was not Jade Immortal's disciple, but instead, it was Darryl who he had sent to the Infernal Shadow Prison.
Meanwhile, Darryl fled along with the Nine Heaven Emperor and the others. Finally, they had returned to the Imperial Sky Palace.
The Nine Heaven Emperor was a mess in his golden dragon robe while his face was covered in bloodstains. He looked utterly miserable. He no longer had the image of the ruler of the Godly Region.
As they arrived at the Imperial Sky Palace, the Nine Heaven Emperor was stunned at the scene. 'Huh?'
In the humongous palace, aside from the soldiers and the royal guards, no Heavenly Immortals were present.
Then, the Nine Heaven Emperor turned to Darryl and asked, "Audric, my fellow priest, may I ask where is your Master and the other Heaven Immortals?"
He had realized that Darryl was just deterring Archfiend Antigonus at the Floating Island but he could not help but ask. Priest was an honorific used in the Godly Region and it was similar to the word fellow used in the world of cultivators in The Nine Mainland.
Darryl smiled and decided not to hide anymore.
"Your Majesty, my master, and the immortals are not here. I was just stalling Archfiend Antigonus back at the Floating Island," he said.
After hearing from Darryl himself, the Nine Heaven Emperor exclaimed in admiration, "My fellow priest, you are so capable and bold. It is indeed impressive."
Darryl looked humble after being complimented but deep down, he was snickering. 'The Nine Heaven Emperor is only so polite to me because he thinks I'm Jade Immortal's disciple. If he knew who I wasl. I'm sure he'd behave differently. Fine, I shall not make a fuss out of it. His daughter, Princess Dorothy, helped me become reborn and sacrificed her life. Why should I be so petty?'
As he thought about Princess Dorothy, Darryl could not help but feel a pinch in his heart.
Strangely, he did not have much affection for Princess Dorothy but after hearing from Jade Immortal that she had surrendered her life to the Red Lotus Fayette to help him be reborn, he felt bad.
