While scornful, Skylar's eyes also flickered with a bit of sinisterness. 'I will make Darryl's sworn brother pay for what he did to me on the antique street.'Skylar turned to face Dax and said, "We have nothing to do with whatever happened to Darryl, so stop barking around like a crazy dog.""What did you say?" Dax roared. He was about to charge toward Skylar when Debra stopped him."Dax! Don't act rashly. Skylar is as strong as Rogart! It won't do you any good to be so reckless!" Debra said gravely.'What? As strong as Rogart?' His heart jumped when he heard that. However, he did not cower but looked his opponent straight in the eyes."Miss Debra, did something happen to Darryl?" Skylar asked with a smile, pretending to be concerned. Only he knew just how happy he was to find out something had happened to Darryl. He started to daydream about how he would get close to Debra if Darryl were out of the picture. Debra sighed and told them all that had happened.'Darryl's been kidn

Skylar frowned and stopped in his tracks when he saw Debra in his way."Miss Debra, he was the one who started it. He only had himself to blame for being weaker than me," Skylar said with a smile. Debra bit her lips and said, "I admit he acted recklessly just now, but please don't kill him.""There's no need to beg for my life! Brother Chester and Darryl will surely avenge me if he kills me!" Dax shouted. How could he, the mighty Flower Mountain Sect Master, let his sworn brother's woman beg for his life? He would not be able to show his face in the world of cultivators!Debra was pissed at his stubbornness. "Dax, calm down and listen to me!""Fine, I'll spare his life because you asked, Miss Debra," Skylar said with a smile.Then, he looked contemptuously at Dax and said, "What a let down you are, Flower Mountain Sect Master. You better behave yourself the next time we meet. It was only due to Miss Debra that you're still alive today. You might not be so lucky next time."The

'Sh*t! How can she be that ruthless?' Darryl was shocked and angry.With no regret on her exquisite face, Veron peered down from the edge of the hole and said, "That is what you get for being a pervert."Then, she sat down on the ground and began to meditate. She would wait until daybreak to tell the people in the Hidden Hero Sect that Darryl had escaped from the dungeon. There should be nothing left of him by then, so even if her mother knew about the truth, she would not blame her. The wind whipped in Darryl's ears as he continued his descent down the hole. His hands were still bound. When he realized that he was about to reach the bottom, he took a deep breath and pressed one of his feet against the wall to get into a horizontal position to lessen the impact. Even so, he felt his blood surged at the landing and immediately gushed out a mouthful of blood. Under normal circumstances, it would be impossible for him to get hurt when falling from a height of several hundred meters.

After a few seconds, she landed at the bottom, and what she saw stunned her. The humongous scaled dragon was all coiled up like a mountain, and in front of him was the handsome Darryl, meditating. 'What's going on?' Veron could not process the scene at all. 'Why isn't the scaled dragon attacking him? Wait a minute. Is it guarding Darryl? No, it can't be!'Darryl opened his eyes when he heard the movement, and rage surged through his heart when he saw Veron. 'D*mn it. She must be here to see whether I've been eaten alive or not.' He squashed his anger to not reveal anything on his face."Darryl? How are you still alive?" Veron asked quizzically. She could not figure out how Darryl was co-existing with the scaled dragon so peacefully. It was too confusing.Darryl chuckled and said, "Why wouldn't I be alive? You must be so disappointed that the scaled dragon did not eat me alive." Then he stood up and said, "I'll be honest with you. I can communicate with it, and it was in a good moo

'What? It's going to eat me?' Veron paled and panicked. 'I wouldn't have come down if I knew things were going to turn out this way.'Darryl was beyond happy seeing Veron's expression. 'That girl finally knows the meaning of fear.'It was right to say that the scaled dragon's sudden rage was entirely an act. Darryl was still furious at Veron for kicking him down the hole, so he planned to use the scaled dragon to teach her a lesson."Darryl!" Veron panicked even more when she saw the menacing glint in the scaled dragon's eyes. "You can communicate with it, right? Please tell the dragon not to eat me."She was reluctant to seek help from Darryl but was left with no choice. In that situation, Darryl was the only one who could help her. Otherwise, she would be eaten by the dragon.Darryl felt good seeing her beg him for help, but he did not reveal it on his face. Instead, he said indifferently, "Why should I help you when you tried to kill me?""I—" Veron bit her lip, not knowing ho
