Gigi wanted to say something but stopped on second thought. She knew that the reason Saber Saint's polite demeanor had something to do with Darryl.
However, she held it back.
She had to respect Darryl and Preston's desire to keep their relationship private.
"Sect Master!"
The Palace Master was the first to react. She asked Darryl, "You and the Saber Saint?"
Darryl had made up his mind as soon as she asked.
"Ouch!" Darryl slowly stood up, rubbed his neck, and said, "I drank too much last night, and I'm still a little uncomfortable now. Palace Master, let's talk about it later. I will return to the Elixir Sector to rest."
Darryl then quickly turned around and walked away.
It was difficult to explain since his identity had been revealed. He decided to let it be.
The Palace Master could not ask any more questions because Darryl had gone far. She immediately gave a bitter smile and waved her hand to dismiss the crowd.
…
On the other side, all the sects had left the Pure Yang Division. When they arrived at the foot of the mountain, they saw Martin and the Heavenly Ocean Sect members. They were sitting on the grass and resting, looking very depressed.
"Elder Hicks!"
When Adam saw that, he rushed over and asked angrily, "What should we do next?" He was outraged when he spoke.
At the time, all the sects went to the Pure Yang Division to capture Darryl and reclaim the Heavenly Secret Palace's rare cultivation method. They were determined to get it, but they never expected the Saber Saint to appear at such a critical time.
The Saber Saint was extremely powerful, and being defeated by him was not something to be ashamed of. However, leaving like that felt humiliating.
As soon as he finished speaking, the sect masters focused their gaze on Martin.
Even though Martin was not the most powerful person present, he was the most senior and had the most experience in the world of cultivators. With his experience, he must be able to devise a solution.
Martin took a deep breath, frowned, and thought for a moment in front of the crowd. Then, slowly, he said, "Darryl and the Saber Saint must have recently become friends. The Saber Saint's assistance was most likely due to his need for elixirs."
"I believe the Saber Saint will soon leave the Pure Yang Division. We can take action as long as he is not with Darryl. We can send people to monitor the Pure Yang Division and Darryl's every move. We will take immediate action once the Saber Saint has descended the mountain."
