The Ultimate Husband (Darryl and Lily Lyndon) novel Chapter 4978

All that could be seen were the three figures locked in a heated battle, zipping through the air in the office and sending ripples of energy around them.

Wendy could hear the ruckus from outside, but she was too afraid to enter.

…

Over on another end, in the Cryolet Continent.

After using the Garans to scare off Kendra, Darryl sat down and meditated to rest.

Upon getting enough rest, Darryl asked the Garans a few more questions. After that, he walked out of the main hall.

After looking around the surrounding towers and being unable to find any important leads, Darryl continued to search inside.

After walking for a while, he saw a chasm that seemed to hold hidden power. The chasm was about a hundred meters wide, and it appeared bottomless. It was lined with a chain bridge.

Across the chain bridge was a giant space. Where the bridge and the space connected was a gigantic plaque. The plaque was a little over ten meters tall, and appeared to sparkle in the sunlight from afar. It was covered in gold quotes.

In front of the plaque was a lithe figure, staring at the golden carvings with a dazed expression.

'F*ck, her again?'

Darryl had only caught sight of a silhouette and frowned instantly. It was none other than Kendra, whom he had just scared away.

'Crap, she definitely thought I died earlier. She's going to give me hell when she sees me now.'

Darryl moved to turn back from where he was on the chain bridge.

He had thought it through. He would wait until Kendra had left to cross the chain bridge again.

Clink clink!

To Darry's demise, he had moved with a little too much vigor in his haste to get out. The already shaky chain bridge let out a series of metallic clangs as it swayed.

"Who's there?"

Kendra turned around when she heard the sound. Her expression morphed from shock into one of indignance.

"How dare you lie to me, Darryl Darby?!"

When Kendra saw the beasts drown Darryl, she felt a twinge of pity amidst her panic. After all, Darryl did not only know how to open the Heavenly Secret Lock, but he also knew how to speak to beasts.
