He was close to death, yet he was still so stubborn? The Eternal Life Palace Sect was an evil cult causing harm to the community, and Darryl was associated with them but should not be pitied even if he died.
Watching the determined and persistent look in Darryl’s eyes, Abbess Mother Serendipity was infuriated. A longsword appeared in her hand as she walked slowly towards Darryl. With every step she took, it was as if she was walking on the hearts of the crowd.
“Abbess Mother Serendipity, you’re doing the best thing for the community. Kill him! ” someone yelled among the crowd.
The crowd roared in agreement as everyone called for justice by demanding Darryl’s death.
“Yeah! Kill him.”
“A bastard like him deserves to die! ”
Abbess Mother Serendipity frowned at the jeers of the crowd as she approached Darryl with the sword pointed at his neck.
“No…” Yvonne felt as if her heart was being stabbed as tears fell down her face.
She wanted to run towards them, but the people surrounding her stopped her. She had made up her mind; if Darryl died today, she did not want to live either!
Darryl slowly shut his eyes in despair as he saw the sword was less than half a meter from him.
“Stop!” someone roared. His voice was powerful, with a hint of authority.
A figure blocked Abbess Mother Serendipity and stood in front of Darryl. He moved as quick as lightning, and his two fingers accurately pinched the tip of Abbess Mother Serendipity’s sword.
He was tall, strong, and dressed in a majestic tunic suit. It was Zoran Carter!
“Godfather!” Darryl called out instinctively, surprised and delighted.
Zoran nodded in acknowledgment before he turned to Abbess Mother Serendipity and exerted a force slightly with his fingers.
Click.
Abbess Mother Serendipity felt a loud wave of energy launch toward her, and she staggered a few steps back.
‘Dad’s internal energy is so powerful,’ Darryl thought in awe. He had first-hand experience with Abbess Mother Serendipity’s power, and it was close to the power of a Martial Saint! Although he could not tell who was more powerful, he knew for sure that Zoran was at least as powerful as Abbess Mother Serendipity.
