Perfect Husband, The Destined One novel Chapter 1279

Darryl was not worried about Pang Tong. Even if he was caught, Darryl could use the pagoda and recall him back into it.

The pagoda had about a dozen kilometers range. As long as Pang Tong did not go too far, he could get him back into the pagoda!

However, just as he exited the prison, Darryl was instantly dumbstruck!

‘F*ck! This palace is way too huge!’

Darryl noticed that there were walkways everywhere among the vast palace buildings—it was like a gigantic maze! Some guards patrolled around the area. There were even hundreds of giant birds in the sky with a few guards on each one. It seemed like they were patrolling the skies.

Those giant birds were called Iron King Doves. They were a low-level flying enchanted beast. Obviously, those birds had been domesticated.

It looked like the palace’s sky and ground were heavily guarded!

Darryl’s head hurt. What should he do? How could he escape the palace?

He could only wander around randomly and try his luck. Perhaps he could escape the palace that way!

Once he had decided, Darryl moved forward. The night was dark, so his vision was limited. Furthermore, he was unfamiliar with his surroundings, and he had to be on the lookout for patrolling guards. It was not long before Darryl felt dizzy. He was utterly lost.

At that moment, Darryl was deep inside the palace, but there was a courtyard in front of him.

A huge stone stele was erected at the courtyard entrance!

The stone stele was more than 10 meters tall, and it had bright-red words on it!

‘Forbidden place! Trespassers shall die!’

Darryl walked toward the stone stele and saw those words. He trembled.

‘A forbidden place? I’m sure this is a lie. Could this be the palace’s back door?’

Many palaces throughout the dynasties had back doors. That was because the emperors were afraid that someone would usurp their thrones. If there were a coup, then they could escape through the back door. That was why so many palaces would have them.
