As a matter of fact, Darryl did not tell Aurin because he would not let him leave the Godly Region. However, how could he tell Master Magaera about that?
Master Magaera knew that Darryl lied, but he did not argue with him on that. He said, "Fine, let's put that aside for now."
Then, Master Magaera asked with a solemn face, "Darryl, did the Carter family collude with the Hidden Hero Sect? The founding sect master of the Hidden Hero Sect is the subordinate of the Yellow Emperor. Back then, the Yellow Emperor publicly opposed the Godly Region. That's why the Hidden Hero Sect has always been a target of the Godly Region. You should know what are the consequences if the Carter family colludes with the Hidden Hero Sect!"
As he spoke, a wave of energy erupted around him and the sky became distorted.
A sinister aura was released. Rachelle started to shiver and she felt difficulty breathing.
Darryl had yet to completely restore his power and so he felt suffocated from the oppression. However, he still faked a cynical look and looked at Master Magaera with a half-smile. "Lord General, I don't understand what you just said. You claimed that the Carter family secretly colluded with the Hidden Hero Sect. Do you have any proof for that?"
Then, he took a step forward and looked fearless as he said, "Show me the proof."
Darryl knew that Master Magaera did not have evidence and so he denied it.
Master Magaera was exasperated at Darryl's attitude and he said, "Darryl, stop denying. Two days ago, I brought my subordinates to attack the Altar of the Hidden Hero Sect. Your sworn brothers Chester, Dax, and the Carter family were all there."
"If they had not secretly colluded, why would they be at the Altar of the Hidden Hero Sect? How do you explain that?"
Master Magaera was fuming.
'How dare Darryl deny the fact.'
"Heh…"
However, Darryl remained calm and shrugged. "Lord General, those were your words. How could I believe you? You insist that the Carter family colluded with the Hidden Hero Sect and even claimed that you saw with your own eyes. Then, did you catch them?"
As he spoke, there was more mockery in his eyes.
Darryl knew the situation that night better than anyone else. Master Magaera surrounded the Hidden Hero Sect for a day and a night. In the end, Chester and the others along with other members of the Hidden Hero Sect still escaped successfully.
'That…'
