Princess Dorothy wanted Darryl to bring her to Grunt. However, while they were in Nine Mainland, she found Darryl's slothful attitude unbearable, and she did not want to miss the opportunity when she heard of the news about Grunt.
D*mn it!
Darryl was stunned when he saw Princess Dorothy fly far away without discussing it.
Jade Immortal remained calm and sipped his wine as he said to Darryl, "That princess left without telling you. It looks like General Grunt is more important to her than you are."
Darryl was confused. "Senior, I've said it before, the marriage between Princess Dorothy and me was a misunderstanding. It's normal that I'm insignificant to her." He got onto his feet and walked toward the men who were still in a daze. Darryl asked, "Hey! How are the Carter family members?" He thought it was good that Princess Dorothy had gone to rescue Grunt. He would not need to go against Skylar. What mattered to him was the Carter family members' safety.
Darryl? At that moment, the men realized that the man next to them was a renowned hero from the Nine Mainland. They were dumbfounded.
The next moment, one of them asked, "Sir, the Hidden Hero Sect has captured the Carter family. I heard they were brought to the sect's altar."
The Hidden Hero Sect? Darryl frowned. There was no feud between the Carter family and the Hidden Hero Sect. Why would Agatha take the Carter family? At that point, he had not known that Agatha had died, and he had become a scapegoat for her death.
He had so many questions in his mind, so he did not delay and turned toward Jade Immortal. "Senior, I have something important to attend to. I guess I won't be able to keep you company for now." Then, he paid the bills and was ready to leave.
Jade Immortal wiped his mouth and said, "You've treated me to a meal. I can't be sitting idly by if you're in trouble. Let's go! I'll go with you!"
Darryl was pleased. That way, he would not need to be afraid of the Nine Heaven Emperor.
