Perfect Husband, The Destined One novel Chapter 2555

Meanwhile, Darryl staggered his way forward in the woods about 50 kilometers away from Lunar Hill.

When he realized that no army was behind him, he took a deep breath and sat cross-legged to recover himself via cultivation. Suddenly, he slumped forward. He could no longer hold himself after Zhang Jue injured his heart vein with the Sky Breaking Axe attack.

"Jewel—" He muttered to himself the moment he fell to the ground.

He had flashbacks of what had happened. He was in agony when he thought of Jewel's ill fate.

A car passed by slowly at that instant.

"Is that a person?"

"Let's check it out..."

When they noticed Darryl, the car stopped, and a few people got out of it. An 18-year-old girl led them. Her gorgeous facial features and attractive figure in a dress made her look as striking as a butterfly.

She was Cheyenne Yach, the Eldest Young Miss of the Yach family in Mistloren. The Yachs had been a business family for generations, but they were into cultivation in recent years due to the normalization of cultivation practice. They had become a famous family of cultivators in Mistloren in the past two years.

A few men in black suits trailed behind Cheyenne. They were her bodyguards.

Cheyenne walked forward and got a huge shock when she spotted the feverish Darryl. She noticed that he was dying from multiple injuries. He was barely breathing, and yet he could not stop mumbling.

Cheyenne lowered herself into a crouch and called out softly. "Hey, are you alright?"

Completely delirious, Darryl stared at Cheyenne in surprise when he heard her voice.

"Jewel..."

He took her into his arms before Cheyenne could react. He called out in surprise and agony. "Jewel, you're fine! I'm so relieved..."

Darryl had mistaken Cheyenne for Jewel because of his fever, and he could not control his emotions.
