'F*ck…'
Looking at Audrey's attitude, Darryl frowned and was speechless. 'Is this girl out of her mind?'
At that moment, Laurel also could not stand it any longer and she said to Audrey, "Senior Sister, please don't do this. Master has already said in the main hall to help Darren—"
"You're too kind, Junior Sister," interjected Audrey. "This man is just a disciple of the Elixir Sect, and he doesn't have a reputation in the community. Mount Hua is already doing him a great favor by helping. Why are you so nice to him?"
Then, Audrey turned and looked at the room where Salvatore rested, adding, "If you have time, why don't you join me to get to know Sect Master Darby better? I'm on my way to get some fruit wine for Sect Master Darby. Just join me later."
When Audrey mentioned Salvatore, she felt proud of herself and felt butterflies in her stomach. Compared to the way she treated Darryl, she acted utterly differently.
Hearing that, Darryl could not help but frown. 'That impersonator is having the time of his life. He even asked for wine!'
On the contrary, Laurel bit her lips tightly and said as she felt tangled. "I… I won't be going. I feel very nervous every time I see Sect Master Darby…"
Hearing that, Audrey shook her head. "If you don't want to go, fine, but don't blame me for not inviting you."
Then, Audrey longingly added, "I had a very good chat with Sect Master Darby just now. Maybe I'll get to have wine with him!"
At that moment, Audrey was completely immersed in her illusion.
Seeing that, Darryl could not help but laugh.
"What's so funny?" Immediately, Audrey's expression hardened as she snapped at Darryl, "You've gotten the inner core of the enchanted beast. Why are you still here?"
Darryl had already calmed down and he chuckled. "I'm laughing at Laurel. She's so gentle and still, always sticking to her duties…unlike someone who sacrificed her dignity just to get close to the hero of the Nine Mainland."
His words contained innuendos.
"You—!" Audrey was exasperated, but she did not know how to refute it.
"This…" Laurel's head buzzed. Subconsciously, she shook her head. "That's impossible. If that's a fake Darryl, why would he have the gold mask?"
She never thought that someone would dare to impersonate Darryl.
Darryl chuckled. "The gold mask is just a tool to symbolize his identity. People with ulterior motives would be able to imitate it.
"Undeniably, the gold mask that man used is very well-made, and it looks almost the same as the real one, but I stopped using the gold mask a few years ago."
"Is that so…" Hearing that, Laurel answered subconsciously.
She felt rather confused, but quickly, she gathered her thoughts and glared at Darryl. "What… What did you say? You stopped wearing it a few years ago? Then you—"
"There's no need to guess," said Darryl. "I'm the real Darryl."
