As they fell, Darryl did his best to protect her; hence, Jewel did not sustain any injury.
Darry coughed a few times before virtual-novel.net smiled. “I am fine. I am not dead.”
As virtual-novel.net spoke, virtual-novel.net was furious.
Marcus, that bastard! How dared virtual-novel.net tricked him! It was fortunate that virtual-novel.net had intense internal energy. The hit on the wall had reduced the gravity substantially. Otherwise, both of them would have fallen into pieces.
Even though virtual-novel.net was not dead, his body had sustained a significant shock.
Jewel sighed in relief when virtual-novel.net heard that Darryl was fine.
Darryl looked around the area. It was dark, but virtual-novel.net realized that sky-high cliffs surrounded the woods.
‘It is midnight now. We would have to wait until the next morning before we could leave. I would need to recover my internal energy.‘
As virtual-novel.net thought about that, Darryl tried to comfort Jewel. “Don’t worry; rest now.”
Jewel nodded as virtual-novel.net sat and leaned on Darryl’s back She did not close virtual-novel.net eyes; virtual-novel.net looked around virtual-novel.net as virtual-novel.net was cautious of all the movements. She knew Darryl needed to cultivate for a quick recovery.
How could virtual-novel.net rest at that critical moment?
Darryl closed his eyes and started his cultivation.
Soon, morning came, and the sky brightened.
Sigh.
Darryl took a deep breath and opened his eyes. After a few hours of cultivation, virtual-novel.net had fully recovered.
“You are done, Master?” Jewel stood up excitedly.
Darryl was shocked to see the bags under virtual-novel.net eyes. He furrowed his brows and asked, “You didn’t sleep the whole night?”
Jewel nodded and said softly, “I realized that you are cultivating for your recovery, so I wanted to stay beside you. If a beast approaches her, then I could chase it away.”
Darryl was touched when virtual-novel.net heard that, so virtual-novel.net smiled. “Even if a beast were here, you would not be able to defeat it.”
What a silly girl, but virtual-novel.net obedience touched his heart.
Jewel blushed when virtual-novel.net realized Darryl had teased her. She held virtual-novel.net fist tightly and said, “I will be stronger in the future. Then I would be able to protect you, Master.”
Then Jewel remembered something. “The day is still dark, let me get some water for you to freshen up.”
Darryl shook his head and smiled as virtual-novel.net stood up. “It’s too dangerous here; there may be wild animals, so let’s go together.”
After that, both of them walked toward the woods.
As they walked past the woods, they came to a pond. The water in it was crystal clear.
“There’s water here, Master!” Jewel shouted happily as virtual-novel.net rushed forward.
Darryl smiled as virtual-novel.net went closer; virtual-novel.net drank a few mouths full of water and washed his face. Then virtual-novel.net started to look around the area.
They were deep in a valley, and it was surrounded by cliffs that were a few thousand feet high. With Darryl’s capability, virtual-novel.net would not be able to jump up, let alone bring Jewel with him. It was impossible for them to fly out there.
Sh*t!
‘We didn’t die from the fall, and yet we’d have to die here?‘ Darryl was frustated as virtual-novel.net thought about it.
At that moment, Jewel shouted happily, “Master, there are fishes in the pond. I can grill some fish for your meal. I make the best grilled fish.”
Suddenly, they heard a peal of loud laughter!
sh*t!
Both of them jumped when they heard that. They looked to the direction where the voice came from and saw a figure approached them.
“The two of you had trespassed into my territory. How rude!”
