Perfect Husband, The Destined One novel Chapter 3699

At that time, Darryl had more than a dozen wounds all over his body, and his clothes were stained red with blood, which was very tragic. In front of him, the Nine Heaven Emperor's soldiers surged like a tide, surrounding him from every side. There was no end to them at all. After two days of fighting, Darryl's strength was almost exhausted, but he still gritted his teeth, holding on with his last breath.

At that moment, Darryl cursed discreetly when he saw the soldiers continue to charge toward him. He was alarmed and anxious. He thought he could sneak in to rescue the Ghost Valley Sage when the demons were fighting outside, but it never crossed his mind that the Godly Region's reinforcements would arrive so quickly.

Darryl was annoyed too. Two days had passed, and he still had no idea where the prison was. He was stuck at the Imperial Sky Palace. Not far from him, the White Tiger King, Colori Peacock, Peacock Lilibet, and the Black Tortoise King had almost exhausted their last bit of strength. They were pale, but their eyes still showed determination—they would not retreat.

They were incredibly anxious too. It would not end well for them if the reinforcements continued to arrive. The demons were at the end of their ropes. Suddenly, a sword pierced Darryl's shoulder when he was not looking. He gasped as blood oozed from the wound.

"Your Excellency!" the White Tiger King and the others shouted. The White Tiger King erupted his power, rushed toward him, and drove off the soldiers. "Your Excellency, we'll stall them. Hurry and go find the Ghost Valley Sage!" He sounded determined when he said that.

Darryl took a deep breath, shook his head, and said, "No, I can't go!" It was a no-brainer. The demons were already at a disadvantage. The Godly Region's soldiers would become even more unstoppable if he left then.

The White Tiger King panicked even more at his refusal. "Don't worry about us. Go!" He erupted his power again and rushed toward the enemies.

"Your Excellency, listen to the White Tiger King. Go and save the Ghost Valley Sage! Leave this to us," Colori Phoenix shouted.

"Fine!" Darryl said between gritted teeth. He nodded and rushed out of the battlefield.

"Stop him!" the Nine Heaven Emperor commanded; he had his eyes locked on Darryl's every move. His majestic voice burst forth from high above the sky and echoed across the air.

Immediately, a few hundred soldiers charged toward Darryl.

'Sh*t, the Nine Heaven Emperor had me locked as a target. It'll be difficult for me to get out of here,' Darryl thought. His eyes were bloodshot, and he clenched the Heavenly Halbert tightly in his hand.

"Don't even think about harming His Excellency with me here!" the White Tiger King roared ferociously. He appeared in front of Darryl and dove head-on against the soldiers. Before that, he pushed Darryl away and said, "Go!"

Darryl did not even have time to react before the White Tiger King pushed him a few hundred meters away. His blood surged, and he was overcome with emotion when he saw the White Tiger King surrounded by the soldiers.

He had always thought that the White Tiger King was a selfish ruler, and it never crossed his mind that he would act so valiantly at such a critical moment. The White Tiger King could not find a way out before a longsword stabbed him in the back. His blood gushed, and in an instant, half of his back was stained red.
