Darryl, hiding behind a tree, was stunned to hear the conversation.
'Grunt and those soldiers are so daring. Those precious fruits are reserved for the Nine Heaven Emperor and Empress Heidi. How dare they come up with such a lawless idea.'
However, Darryl could not be bothered. He was looking forward to Grunt and the soldiers leaving quickly.
"That—."
Grunt reacted. He took a deep breath and said, "Be careful—"
While Grunt was talking, a gust of wind blew, and Darryl could not hold back from sneezing.
Achoo!
Grunt and the soldiers were startled by the sneezing sound. They fixed their eyes on the tree where Darryl was hiding.
After that, Grunt frowned and exclaimed, "Who is hiding there? Come out!"
Grunt waved his hand, and suddenly dozens of soldiers surrounded the tree.
F*ck!
Darryl knew that he could not stay hidden anymore, so he bit the bullet and stepped out of his hiding place.
Grunt and the rest of the soldiers froze when they saw Darryl, all of them were frightened and panicked.
'His Majesty?'
At the same time, Grunt was puzzled.
'This is strange. His Majesty left shortly after tasting the precious fruits and chatting with the Empress for a while. Why is he hiding behind the tree outside the Jade Fairyland?'
