While scornful, Skylar's eyes also flickered with a bit of sinisterness. 'I will make Darryl's sworn brother pay for what he did to me on the antique street.'
Skylar turned to face Dax and said, "We have nothing to do with whatever happened to Darryl, so stop barking around like a crazy dog."
"What did you say?" Dax roared. He was about to charge toward Skylar when Debra stopped him.
"Dax! Don't act rashly. Skylar is as strong as Rogart! It won't do you any good to be so reckless!" Debra said gravely.
'What? As strong as Rogart?' His heart jumped when he heard that. However, he did not cower but looked his opponent straight in the eyes.
"Miss Debra, did something happen to Darryl?" Skylar asked with a smile, pretending to be concerned. Only he knew just how happy he was to find out something had happened to Darryl. He started to daydream about how he would get close to Debra if Darryl were out of the picture.
Debra sighed and told them all that had happened.
'Darryl's been kidnapped! That is good news indeed!' That was one of the happiest days of Skylar's life.
"Skylar, do you have anything to do with that?" Debra asked seriously.
"Miss Debra! How can I possibly have anything to do with that? I don't need to resort to that kind of tactic to win against Darryl. The way I see it, he must have offended some mysterious figure," Skylar said. He did not mind that Debra had accused him.
Then, he took two steps closer to Debra and looked deeply into her eyes. "I always wonder what a beautiful woman like you is doing with someone like him. Why don't you give up looking for him and be my woman from now on?"
He found himself more and more enthralled by her beauty. He was so enthralled that he completely ignored Dax.
Debra's face flushed red from both anger and humiliation. "Have some self-respect, Skylar!"
Dax was enraged. 'F*ck that little cocky piece of sh*t. How dare he talk to Debra like that! Doesn't he know that she is Darryl's woman?'
The more he thought about it, the more furious he got, to the point that he could not hold back his fury anymore. With bloodshot eyes, he activated his internal energy, and the Sky Breaking Axe appeared in his hand with a flash of golden light.
"Die, you motherf*cker!" Dax roared. His murderous aura swirled as he brought the axe down violently. He was hot-tempered, and with Darryl's disappearance, there was no way he would be able to endure the way Skylar disrespected Debra.
A dragon's roar came out from the axe. Immediately, a dazzling golden light ripped across the night sky and blasted toward Skylar.
Kendall began to tremble with fear. 'Such a strong momentum. Is that the magic weapon's power?'
"Dax, no!" Debra shouted, wild with panic. She was afraid that Dax was still no match for Skylar, even with his Sky Breaking Axe. However, it was too late to stop him.
