'Yes! We can save Dax and Neil with glazed water from the Godly Region!' They were all unbelievably excited to hear the good news. At the same time, they turned to look at Darryl. They were sure he would be able to get the glazed water as he had been to the Godly Region. Plus, he was the Nine Heaven Sage, after all.
However, Darryl frowned as he did not share their confidence. His relationship with the Nine Heaven Emperor was not good, and he had been framed for Rogart's assassination. More importantly, Nancy and Yennie died in Grunt's hands. It would not be a stretch to say that the Godly Region and Darryl viewed each other as their public enemy number one, and under that condition, going there would be the same as serving himself up on a silver platter. He needed to come up with another way.
"Brother Darryl, why do you look so worried when you've been to the Godly Region before? Didn't the Heavenly Alliance build a lot of Portal Formations? We'll go with you to the Godly Region to look for the glazed water. We'll think about avenging Nancy and Yennie after saving Dax and Neil," Zhu Bajie said when he saw Darryl's expression. He had always been the type to say whatever came to his mind.
"Zhu Bajie is right. Let's go to the Godly Region through the Portal Formation. When the time comes, we will play it by ear to get the glazed water," Chang Er said lightly. She did not reprimand Zhu Bajie for his big mouth because she knew the Godly Region was full of danger. It would be impossible for Darryl to complete the mission alone.
Darryl fell silent with contemplation. Then, Chester walked forward and patted him on the shoulder. "Darryl, Brother Zhu and Lady Chang Er are right. It's dangerous for you to go alone when we're not on the best of terms with the Godly Region. It is better to go in a group so that we can watch each other's backs."
Yvette and the others also nodded in agreement.
Darryl took a deep breath, looked at them each in the face, and smiled. "I know you are worried about my safety, but I have to do this alone. The more people, the higher the chance of having my movement exposed."
In an instant, there was an uproar in the hall. Chester was about to say something to dissuade him, but Darryl beat him to it. "Brother Chester, you don't understand the situation in the Godly Region. There are patrolling soldiers everywhere, and there is nowhere to hide," he said thoughtfully.
Another important reason Darryl wanted to go alone was that the overall power of the Godly Region was too tyrannical. Even though Chester and the others were strong in their own right, without the fairy soul, their presence was akin to a suicide mission.
The hall was silent with everyone's worry. Finally, Yvette asked, "Darryl, are you sure about that?"
After all, they were talking about the Godly Region, a place where there were too many elites. It was highly dangerous for him to go alone.
Darryl smiled and said, "Have a little faith in me. With this, I can hide my identity!"
He retrieved a bag of glowing white powder. It was a very odd thing, but it was the Transfiguration Powder.
'What is that?' Yvette and the others present were stunned. The Transfiguration Powder was very rare in the Nine Mainland, and there were very few people who had seen it, so it was not surprising they did not know what it was.
However, Zhu Bajie's eyes lit up. He strode forward and stared at Transfiguration Powder. "No, sh*t! You still have that?" he said admiringly. He was very familiar with the powder.
When Zhu Bajie and Darryl met for the first time, Zhu Bajie had angered Darryl by pestering him to play with him. Later, Zhu Bajie used the Transfiguration Powder to impersonate Emperor Hou Yi to win Darryl's forgiveness. Then, he gave Darryl his last bottle of the Transfiguration Powder as a gift.
In Zhu Bajie's mind, the Transfiguration Powder was a non-renewable treasure. He thought Darryl had finished the bottle given to him. Seeing Zhu Bajie's reaction, everyone became restless and looked at him curiously.
"Brother Zhu, why are you so surprised to see that?" Yvette finally asked.
