The Ultimate Husband (Darryl and Lily Lyndon) novel Chapter 5568

Debra was displeased to hear how Scitalis addressed her. In the olden days, 'wifey' was a title for a husband to call his wife. When a stranger called a lady with that title, it sounded frivolous and rude.

Due to Scitalis' queer appearance, Debra could not bother to fuss and nodded to his question. "Yes, I'm the Sect Master of the Hidden Hero Sect."

'Sect Master?' Scitalis' eyes flashed with a hint of peril and said excitingly, "So you're the Sect Master! My name is Scitalis. I came to explore this area two hundred years ago, but I've never gone up ever since."

Scitalis was a lustful being. He purposely made up a fake identity to get closer to Debra.

Debra and Rachelle's expressions changed into extreme shock. 'This man…is a disciple who came to explore two hundred years ago?'

Debra examined Scitalis and could not help but ask, "Then, how…did you end up looking like this?"

If Scitalis did not explain himself, there was no difference between him and a monster.

Scitalis took a deep breath. He lowered his head to pretend to reminisce, but what he was actually doing was that he was thinking of what to say next.

After a few seconds, Scitalis slowly and solemnly explained, "Allow me, Sect Master.

"When I entered this cave, I accidentally ate a mushroom in this cave and got poisoned, changing my appearance…into this. It was a very unique mushroom that only grows out every three years."

As a spiritual serpent, Scitalis was sneaky and sly. He knew two hundred years were not too short nor too short and there was no way to investigate. Thus, he unscrupulously started to spout nonsense.

A mushroom? Debra and Rachelle exchanged looks with each other. Immediately, they looked around the walls of the cave in an attempt to find the mushroom Scitalis was referring to. After a round of searching, they did not even spot mushrooms—all they saw were those dark cyan igneous rocks.

Rachelle's eyebrows furrowed as she said, "I don't see any mushrooms!"

"Haha…" Scitalis laughed and continued with his lie, "After surviving the poison, I took them all and destroyed them in fear someone else would wander here and eat them."
