Perfect Husband, The Destined One novel Chapter 4989

Darryl chuckled and explained, "Miss Mosley, don't be emotional. I was just reminding you."

Then, Darryl pointed at the ice cubes scattered around with Mahoney's flesh and bone stuck in between and said thoughtfully, "You've seen for yourself the way people died earlier. There are many hidden mechanisms here, and there are dangers everywhere. You'd better not touch anything."

As he spoke, he vaguely glanced at the Heavenly Marrow Golden Elixir.

'I won't be able to take it now that Kendra is here. Otherwise, she'd certainly suspect me. I should just think of a way to lure her somewhere else and return to get it again…'

After she heard what Darryl said, an intense fear suddenly appeared on Kendra's delicate face.

'That's true. How could I forget how Mahoney and the others rushed to the ritual altar rashly and died a tragic death?'

Then, Kendra looked down at the pieces of human flesh between the ice cubes. Her face turned even paler, and she could not help but take two steps back cautiously, fearing that she would trigger any hidden mechanism.

'Haha…'

Looking at her face, Darryl secretly giggled and said, "I've yet to find out the mystery of this ritual altar. Why don't we take a look around and come back later?"

Darryl had thought about it. 'After I come down from the ritual altar with Kendra, I shall use the ultimate technique—the Shadow Skills—to get hold of the Heavenly Marrow Golden Elixir.

'Hmm!'

At that moment, Kendra started to panic. Then, after listening to Darryl's suggestion, she nodded, turned around, and walked away from the ritual altar.

'The chance is here.'

For a moment, Darryl felt rather excited as he stared closely at the Heavenly Marrow Golden Elixir, wanting to reach out to grab it.

Creak.

However, at that instant, the ritual altar started to shake as if there was an earthquake. Though the movement was not violent, Darryl and Kendra had slightly lost their balance.

'What's happening?'

Darryl got shocked and subconsciously turned to Kendra. 'Did that lady accidentally trigger a hidden mechanism?'

However, Kendra also looked startled as she turned around. She made eye contact with Darryl and subconsciously clarified, "I… I didn't touch anything. Darryl, what's going on?"

Darryl knitted his brows. 'She didn't trigger the hidden mechanism? Why did the tremor happen?'
