Everyone immediately ran over to check on Chester.
He was no longer trembling at that time. However, his eyes were shut tightly, and he remained unconscious.
Sigh…
Everyone felt lost when they saw the situation.
Darryl and Dax were really worried. 'Brother Chester had gone through so much hardship and challenges; I must not let anything bad happen to him!'
"Don't panic, everyone!"
At that moment, Ileana walked forward slowly. She looked at Chester and said, "His soul was damaged by the Soul Destruction Curse just now, but it is not life-threatening."
Darryl was relieved when he heard that. He asked, "By the way, the soul contract between him and Donoghue—"
Ileana interrupted with a chuckle before she said, "The soul contract is nothing. I can remove it; it just takes a little time."
'That's great!'
Darryl was overjoyed, and he quickly arranged for Dax and the others to carry Chester into the Dragon Gateway under Ileana's guidance so that she could treat Chester properly.
Next, Darryl and the major sects entered the Dragon Gateway to cultivate.
Over the next two days, Darryl had investigated Donoghue and Jack's whereabouts while he was cultivating. Perhaps Donoghue had suffered severe injuries from the battle as there was no news about them.
Ileana managed to cancel Chester's soul contract completely. However, his body was very weak; he still needed time to continue recuperating.
At the same time, news about Darryl defeating Donoghue's army at the Dragon Gateway had spread all over the nine continents in just a short period. Jethro was so excited to hear the news. He sent a special envoy to the Dragon Gateway to express his gratitude.
On the third day, the envoy brought many treasures from around the world and other gifts to meet Darryl at the Dragon Gateway.
At that moment, Darryl was looking at the many healing elixirs and pills in his resting chamber. A South Cloud World's envoy stood in front of him respectfully.
"Thank you, Sect Master Darby, for helping us to keep the Dragon Gateway safe," the envoy complimented him.
Darryl smiled and asked, "Mister Envoy, may I ask, why wasn't Princess Long at the battle to defend the Dragon Gateway?"
