Perfect Husband, The Destined One novel Chapter 3896

Darryl's mind went blank, and a pang of immense guilt filled his heart. He had returned too late; Nancy might have still been alive if he had arrived a little quicker. He looked around—what he saw made his head buzz, and his whole body trembled uncontrollably. Xenia and the other Oracles were guarding Yennie's corpse with tears-streaked faces.

'Yennie's dead too?' Darryl's eyes instantly became bloodshot. He still had not fully processed Nancy's death, and seeing Yennie lying dead on the ground filled his mind with fury.

Zhu Bajie walked forward quickly and said to Darryl, "Brother, it's been a few years since we last saw each other. I'm glad to see that you're looking as good as ever!"

At the same time, Chang Er also made her way forward slowly, nodded at Darryl, and said hello.

Darryl nodded back at them, and a bittersweet feeling rose in his heart. He was surprised to see them, but his joy was cut short after experiencing Yennie and Nancy's deaths.

"Darling, don't leave me... Please open your eyes, please..." Dax kept speaking in a hoarse voice, and his whole body shook. "Argh!" He suddenly went mad with grief and completely lost his mind. He pulled out the Sky Breaking Axe with a roar and slashed at the Carter family's disciples.

"I'm going to kill you all! I'm going to kill..." The Soul-devouring Bloodworm in Dax's body turned violent with his pain, and that affected Dax's thinking.

'Sh*t!' Darryl and Chester paled; they exchanged a glance with each other. Then they immediately rushed toward Dax in a bid to stop him.

However, Dax's powerful aura and the Sky Breaking Axe made it difficult for Darryl and Chester to get close to him. Seeing that, Zhu Bajie rushed over to help them too. Very quickly, they finally managed to control Dax, who had fainted by then.

"Quick! Get him to his room, and arrange for people to watch over him," Chester said; he was sweating buckets by then. The disciples immediately did as he said and carried Dax to his room.

"It looks like Uncle Dax is under the influence of a Soul-devouring Bloodworm," said Neil pensively. He was shocked because the same thing had happened to him when he was under the influence of the Soul-devouring Bloodworm. His voice was not loud, but everyone heard what he said.

"Neil, what is a Soul-devouring Bloodworm?" Chester asked gravely.

"Father, I…" Neil suddenly became nervous, and his mouth opened and closed like a goldfish as if he momentarily lost the ability to speak.

Half a month ago, Skylar had forcibly fed the Soul-devouring Bloodworm to Neil, and in desperation, Neil stole the ghost token that Chester had sealed. He had not told anyone about that.

Chester became even more suspicious when he saw Nei's hesitation.

"The King of the Dead's envoy is here to see Your Excellency Darryl!" Suddenly, a shout sounded, followed by a man that came quickly like a ghost. He was dressed in black robes and emitting a gloomy aura. It was the envoy sent by Ileana.

'The King of the Dead's envoy?' Chester and everyone else was stunned. 'What is he doing here?'

Darryl was also stunned. He had a bad feeling about that.
