Grunt took a deep breath as he scrambled to speak. "Let's not make rash decisions, Oliver.""What's it to you?"Oliver smiled coldly, eyeing Grunt. "Are you going to let them go, General Grunt?"Leia let out a breath of relief. At the same time, she glared at Grunt, disgust in her eyes.What a b*stard! He had taken advantage of Darryl's weakness to attack him and Leia. Since Oliver had made his move, Grunt started to cower.The Nine Heaven Emperor should be ashamed, having a subordinate so lowly.Next to Leia, Darryl frowned.Would Grunt and Oliver go that far? Would a fight break out between the two of them?"Prince Oliver."Just as Darryl pondered the situation, a smile appeared on Grunt's face. He called out to Oliver. "You want the girl? You can have her. I'll let her go for the sake of the bigger picture. I'm sure you know as well as I do that it's far more important to join forces to take down the fiends."Grunt waved a hand at the soldiers by his side. "Go on, free Lad

At Grunt's orders, the soldiers exchanged doubtful looks with each other. Yet Grunt's expression was deathly solemn, and the soldiers dared not question him further, speeding out of the canyon.In the blink of an eye, Grunt and Darryl were the only ones left at the cave entrance."Darryl Darby!"Gone was the coldness on Grunt's face, and in its place was a satisfied smirk as he turned to face Darryl. "And so what if you were right? So what if I had been putting up an act with Oliver just now? What would it matter if you saw through it? Who would believe you?"I'll admit you're a powerful, skilled man. Great enough for even the Ancient Ancestors to change how they see you and make you the Nine Heaven Sage. You still lost to me in the end, though, didn't you?"Grunt was overwhelmed with emotion toward the end of his speech, a crazed look on his face.Darryl sighed with a pained smile on his face. "I know you detest me for what happened with Princess Dorothy, Grunt, but it was all a

Upon finishing her sentence, Morticia's eyes blazed icily. Her fiend soul burst from her body as she rose in the air, clutching a black longsword to meet Grunt's attack!In the blink of an eye, a battle broke out between them.Darryl gasped when he saw that. He was at a loss, torn between feeling complicated and overwhelming.He felt complicated because being captured by Grunt was dangerous enough, but another powerful figure from the fiend race had appeared too. He was overwhelmed because he might have a chance at survival if the fiend woman could wound Grunt mortally.Grunt and Morticia flew in circles through and around each other in mid-air. The collisions of the black longsword and the golden spear emitted a series of clangs that rang through the air.Grunt had started the battle full of confidence. Yet he slowly began to sweat, shock creeping into his system.What the hell? Was that woman not just a fiend general? How was she so powerful?"Give it up. You're no match for

That was a pretty good spot.Oliver turned to command the Black Tortoise warriors as he took in the sight before him. "Let's take a rest here. Don't forget to be on the lookout, and keep your guard up at all times.""Yes."The thousands of Black Tortoise warriors spread out immediately. They began to recuperate in various locations around the valley.Oliver brought Leia to the clearing under the rock.Once they were settled, Oliver scrambled to unseal Leia's acupoint. In a tone dripping with concern, he asked, "Leia, are you in any pain? Are you alright?""I'm fine!" Leia shook her head, unable to hide her worry. "I don't know how Honorable Master Darby's doing. Oliver, you have to think of something."Despite having escaped danger, Leia's mind was still on Darryl.F*ck!Oliver's expression remained unchanged while his blood boiled.What was so great about Darryl Darby? Was he worthy enough for Leia to be fretting over him in a situation like that?Oliver looked like he was

Leia was filled with unspeakable humiliation and helplessness as she regretted all her choices.How could she have been foolish enough to believe that shameless b*stard?How would she face anyone after she had been tainted? How would she ever look Darryl in the eye again? Was Darryl still in danger?Just as Oliver was about to tear Leia's clothes off, a great burst of energy rippled from the heavens.F*ck! Who was ruining his moment?Oliver was furious, cursing internally. He turned around to look. He stopped short instantly at the sight that greeted him as his heart dropped to the bottom of his stomach.A figure was making her way toward him. She was breathtakingly stunning, clad in a long colorful skirt and radiating a powerful aura.It was Colori Phoenix.Under the White Tiger King's lead, the Demon Warrior tribe successfully relocated to new territory just half an hour ago. However, when making sure everyone was here, they realized Oliver and a few thousand Black Tortoise w
