Darryl was more worried than anyone else about those people in the swamp, especially when he noticed that Sara and Andy were among them.
He had been right to worry about the situation. Those people in the swamp were not Sara, Andy, and others. They were a group of Mirror Devils.
Those Mirror Devils were too despicable. They pretended to be trapped because they wanted to lure Darryl and others to get closer to them. They would ambush the newcomers when they approached them.
Quincy had started to feel worried when she realized that Darryl had no intention of rescuing those people. "Darryl, why wouldn't you let us rescue them? Do you want to see them sink into the swamp?"
She was upset about the situation.
'That Darryl is too cruel. He saw those people in trouble, yet he would not help them. I used to respect the Elysium Gate Sect, but now it seems like I have overestimated him.'
Sigh!
Darryl smiled bitterly.
'Quincy should have been an experienced and knowledgeable person as she is the South Cloud World's Princess Long. It is obvious that something was not right about the situation; how could she not see it?!"
Darryl said calmly, "Just wait a little longer!"
A little longer?
Everyone was so worried when they heard that!
'What does he mean? He wants everyone to give up? He is supposed to be the Elysium Gate's Sect Master who claimed to want to do good for the Nine Mainland's community, and that is all he has to say?'
"Darryl!"
Finally, Quincy's anger exploded; she scolded him. "I know there were rumors in the community accusing you of violating Chang Er. All the sects had blamed the Elysium Gate Sect and you. Hence you feel upset. But that is a separate matter. You can't just ignore those people and not rescue them!"
Weston stood up and shouted, "Exactly! Darryl, you are too mean! You should at least rescue your god sister and the Elixir Sect's Sect Master, even if you don't want to rescue the others!"
"The Elixir Sect's Sect Master, Andy, must be like a brother to you. He helped you without any reservations countless times. How can you ignore his pleas for help? Are you even human?"
Weston's face looked so noble when he said that, but his eyes displayed delight at his chance for revenge.
'Sh*t! That Darryl had put me in trouble earlier! I must not miss such a perfect opportunity to seek revenge on him.'
Everyone nodded at Weston's speech.
