As he pondered, Sir Moonshine could not help but say, "Darryl, wait a minute."
Darryl was shocked, and he took a step back. "Is there anything, Sir?"
Sir Moonshine dashed back to the hall and dispatched the sect's last elites. "Your body has not fully recovered. Bring the sect's remaining elites with you."
'That man is something else. It'll be beneficial to Lunar Moon Hut to maintain a good relationship with him.'
Darryl took over the elites and nodded. "Thank you."
Suddenly, Daisy rushed forward and asked with a complex look. "Darry, will you come to Lunar Moon Hut again? Will we still meet again?"
Though they had only known each other for a day, Darryl had always been impressive at critical moments. He had left a deep impression on Daisy.
"Well..." Darryl scratched his head and grinned. "Fate will bring us together again."
Then, he called out to Marvin and walked away.
"Darryl, Your Excellency." After going a long way, Marvin could not help but ask, "What happened in the underground ancient tomb? How did you come out? For the past few days, the Godly Eagle Sect had released news that they're hunting you down. They are rather strong. We should be cautious."
Darryl inhaled deeply and explained what had happened. In the end, he said emotionally, "Thankfully, the Crazy Sphinx was with me. Otherwise, I'm afraid the Godly Eagle Sect would have caught me.
'What?' Marvin was shocked and stared blankly at Darryl. He had already guessed that Darryl must have been in trouble, but he did not expect the situation to be so dangerous.
Darryl looked ordinary, but he was a competent man. He was able to unlock the Heavenly Secret Lock on the treasure chest, and he was also able to communicate with the Crazy Sphinx. Furthermore, at a critical moment, the Crazy Sphinx risked its life to bring him out of the ancient tomb. Any ordinary man would not imagine having achieved all of those things.
'No wonder Lady Tigas favored him. That man is indeed extraordinary.'
The Crazy Sphinx silently emerged and followed Darryl out of Lunar Moon Hut after Darryl had departed. Darryl had always been aware of the situation, but Marvin had been kept in the dark.
Marvin gathered his thoughts a few seconds later. "That... that is the top ten fiercest beasts, the Crazy Sphinx?" he mumbled, stunned.
Immediately, the Crazy Sphinx let out a deep hiss as if it was answering Marvin's question.
Marvin was shocked, and he almost collapsed to the ground.
"Beast Lord," the Crazy Sphinx looked at Darryl and said confusedly."This man is such a scaredy-cat. Why are you keeping him with you? Why not treat me to a feast and let me eat him?"
The Crazy Sphinx was crazy, violent, and bloodthirsty. Besides Darryl, it despised everyone else, especially Marvin. When it observed him looking scared, it felt compelled to kill him.
Marvin felt more nervous as he sensed the Crazy Sphinx's anger and hate in his gaze and asked, "Mister Darryl, what does it want?"
