The maidservant did not know that Darryl was in his most crucial moment of extracting the elixir. She only received instructions from her master. If she failed in her task, she would be punished.
What?
Cumulonimbus furrowed his brows. He reprimanded curtly, "Useless! Can't you even do a simple thing? Forget about it. I'll head over there now."
Then, Cumulonimbus stood up and smiled at Diego and Sienna. "I'm sorry, I have something important to attend to. Why don't you two go ahead and eat."
Diego and Sienna were stunned.
Then, Diego asked, "Sect Master Swae, do you have other guests here?"
What guest would need so much of his attention?
Sienna was curious too.
Cumulonimbus chuckled and said casually, "He is my savior. He once saved my life. He is no simple man. His name is enough to cause a sensation in the entire Nine Mainland—"
Cumulonimbus was halfway through when he suddenly stopped. He slapped his forehead. Darryl did not want his identity revealed. How could he expose him?
Then, Cumulonimbus smiled and said, "It's nothing. I have to leave for now." Then, he quickly walked out of the side hall.
Savior?
Enough to cause a sensation throughout the entire Nine Mainland?
Diego and Sienna sat there looking at each other. They were inexplicably stunned.
It looked like the guest was an important person.
"Diego!" A few seconds later, Sienna snapped back to her senses. She said, "Sect Master Swae's guest must be someone special. You're well acquainted with him. You must get him to introduce us to his guest."
Sienna's face was filled with longing and anticipation.
If she could get acquainted with such an important figure, it would be much easier for her to survive in the world of cultivators.
"That's right, Sienna!" Diego smiled and nodded. He said, "You don't have to tell me that! Based on my relationship with Sect Master Swae, I'm sure he'll introduce us to his guest. Come, let's drink!"
Then, Diego and Sienna clinked their glasses. At that moment, they were extremely relaxed and delighted.
