The Ultimate Husband (Darryl and Lily Lyndon) novel Chapter 4779

"So slow…"

Cloud Spirit pouted when she saw Darryl. Her delicate features could not hide her contempt. "What took you so long?"

Even though she went to the Black Swamp with Darryl, and they had successfully brought the Ghost Spirit Herb back with them, their relationship had not improved. Cloud Spirit despised Darryl even more.

Darryl did not care about her impatience. He smiled and asked, "Please get straight to the point."

Cloud Spirit did not hesitate. She said, "The Sedation Pills in Jade Fairyland have run out. The alchemists are currently cultivating in seclusion. You can help refine some."

A sedation Pill was a medicinal remedy for tranquility and meditation. Empress Heidi took it every day, so it was in great demand.

Hmm?

Darryl frowned and said with a half-smile, "The Sedation Pills are just ordinary pills. You can make them yourself, so there's no need to come here and get me to do it for you, right?"

Darryl's heart was as clear as a mirror, and he could see through Cloud Spirit at a glance.

Empress Heidi must have wanted to take a Sedation Pill that morning. When she found out that it had run out, she asked Cloud Spirit to refine some more. However, Cloud Spirit must have thought that the pill refining process was too dirty, and she was afraid that the ashes from the elixir cauldron would get onto her body. Then she thought of Darryl.

Cloud Spirit had already thought it through. She only had to mention the Empress, and the old man would cooperate with her.

"You—"

Cloud Spirit was enraged when her true motives were revealed. She was dumbfounded for a moment after pointing at Darryl.

It seemed like the old man was not one to be fooled.

Cloud Spirit said arrogantly, "Yes, that was originally entrusted to me by the Empress, but I don't like germs, and I'm unwilling to enter the elixir production room. Why can't I have you do it for me? If I hadn't spoken up for you after Black Swamp, the Empress wouldn't have rewarded you so handsomely."

"I only asked you to do one thing for me, and you're reluctant to do so. You should feel honored that I came to you."

Oh?

Darryl found it funny and frustrating when he heard that.

That fairy was an interesting one. She did not help when they were in the Black Swamp, but she gave herself credit?

She had not planned to appear, but when Cloud Spirit picked on Darryl and went over the line, she could not help herself.

Oh, no!

Darryl was shocked when he saw Princess Sheila. He panicked instantly. Did they not agree that she would stay in the room? Why did she show herself? Cloud Spirit was desperate to get a hold over him. If she learned that the Princess was in his room, she would exaggerate things in front of Empress Heidi.

"Princess Sheila?"

Cloud Spirit's delicate body trembled, and she stared at Princess Sheila in a daze. Her face reflected only disbelief. 'What's this? Why is the Princess in that old man's room so early in the morning?' she thought.

Cloud Spirit reacted after a few seconds and asked, "Why are you here, Princess?"

"What do you mean?" Princess Sheila's delicate face showed displeasure, and she said arrogantly, "You're here, so why can't I be here? Also, do I need to report to you where I go?"

"No, that's not what I meant—" Cloud Spirit lowered her head respectfully. Her haughty attitude was nowhere to be found.

Everyone in the Godly Region knew that Princess Sheila was rude and unreasonable. Even the Princes would have a headache if they saw her, let alone Cloud Spirit. She was only a maid serving Empress Heidi, and she would never dare to provoke the Princess.
