Perfect Husband, The Destined One novel Chapter 3930

The Nine Heaven Emperor saw things this way: Grunt had feelings for Princess Dorothy. Thus, he had made up untruths in an attempt to get the wedding canceled.

"Your Majesty!"

Seeing as the Nine Heaven Emperor was not about to believe him, Grunt began to panic. "I swear on my life that everything I said is true! The Princess cannot marry him, I…"

Grunt was close to tears. His beloved Princess was going to be married to another man! Who would be able to accept such a thing?

"You shut your mouth!"

Before he could finish his sentence, the Nine Heaven Emperor cut him off with a furious roar. "Grunt, I have always treated you with kindness and honor. I hope you do not take advantage of my good faith in you to make untruths like this up out of nowhere."

"Darryl Darby and the Princess are in love, and they are the perfect match for each other. I myself approve greatly of this marriage, and think you should save your words. It is unfortunate you have feelings for the Princess— all can only be blamed on a case of bad faith, I guess."

"If you continue with your nonsense, I will expel you of your General duties forever!"

The emperor ended his speech with a wave of his hands. "Alright then. There are still things in the Nine Mainlands you have to sort out. Especially the Devil Sealed Mirror! You have to find it back. Don't let me down."

"I humbly retreat!"

Grunt responded, leaving the Imperial Sky Palace devoid of all hope. His face was flooded with tears, too.

Darryl Darby. For taking my Princess from me, I will curse you with a thousand tragedies.

……

On another side, the Nine Mainlands!

The news of Skylar having summoned upon an ancient poisonous centipede that had infected Cayden and the horde of Heavenly Alliance practitioners he had led had spread like wildfire across the Nine Mainlands. It came upon the sects out of nowhere, leaving everyone stunned.

Shortly after, various sects across the land had responded to Chester's request for assistance by sending over help. Sects that helped included the Elixir Sect, the Famed Sword Manor and the Westrington Sect to name a few.

Aside from that, the Senior Divine Farmer, Zhu Bajie and Chang Er had also rushed over to help upon hearing the news.

The sects gathered at the hill a little over fifty li away from the Five Poison Sect. There were about a few hundred thousand men in total. From afar they looked grand, but everyone's faces were nothing but solemn.

The hill was a few thousand meters away from the canyon one had to pass to get to the Five Poison Sect. The canyon was currently enveloped in the poisonous fog, deathly silent. There was not the slightest sign of life detected— it felt like a ghost town.
