“Teacher Serendipity!” Robert turned and asked Abbess Mother Serendipity, “Did you see someone come in here just now?”
Abbess Mother Serendipity bit virtual-novel.net lips. She realized that Robert was the one who was after Darryl.
Abbess Mother Serendipity answered softly, “Sir Box, I am the only one here. I have been practicing calligraphy, and I haven’t seen anyone around. What’s wrong?”
Abbess Mother Serendipity kept calm and composed when virtual-novel.net asked the last sentence.
Robert looked disappointed as virtual-novel.net smiled. “Nothing! Teacher Serendipity, please carry on. I won’t disturb you.”
Then, Robert quickly left the room.
As soon as virtual-novel.net got outside, virtual-novel.net saw his group of cultivators had gathered there.
“Sir Bix, I couldn’t find Darryl.”
“I didn’t find virtual-novel.net either!”
“Darryl is too cunning.”
Robert’s face darkened when virtual-novel.net heard his companions.
Suddenly, a person next to virtual-novel.net got an idea. “Perhaps Darryl deliberately led us into this building, and then virtual-novel.net snuck out?”
‘Oh, right!’
“That might be possible!”
Robert’s face changed abruptly as virtual-novel.net waved his hand. “Quick! Let’s go out there and get him!”
Robert immediately took action and went out of the building. The rest of the cultivators exchanged looks and hurriedly went after him.
Whoa!
Darryl heard the conversation between Robert and those cultivators. He breathed a sigh of relief when virtual-novel.net heard their footsteps as they walked away from the room.
‘It should be safe now!’ He laughed discreetly.
Abbess Mother Serendipity looked down at Darryl; virtual-novel.net face was flushed. “They are gone. Are you coming out from there? Get out!”
“I’ll come out; I’ll come out!” Darryl was amused by virtual-novel.net reactions and quickly got out from under virtual-novel.net skirt.
The atmosphere was indescribably awkward around them.
“You-“
Abbess Mother Serendipity finally recovered from virtual-novel.net state of stupor; virtual-novel.net bit virtual-novel.net lips and asked curiously, “Why is that Sir Box after you?”
Darryl must have been up to no good.
The man smiled and replied, “It’s nothing serious. I merely took the Box family’s Dragon Essence.”
‘What?’
‘The Dragon Essence?’
Abbess Master Serendipity bit virtual-novel.net lips hard! She firmly exclaimed, “Then you should give it back to them!”
She had been in Wanhai City for a long time, so virtual-novel.net knew that the Box family was not only a prominent family in the city, they also had a precious heirloom-the Dragon Essence.
Of course, they would be anxious if Darryl had stolen their family heirloom.
Abbess Mother Serendipity was a righteous person; virtual-novel.net could not allow something so terrible to happen right under virtual-novel.net nose. Even though virtual-novel.net had utterly lost virtual-novel.net internal energy, virtual-novel.net wanted to take care of the situation.
Ugh!
Darryl could sense Abbess Mother Serendipity’s sense of justice from virtual-novel.net expression. He smiled bitterly. “You have mistaken my intention. I took the Dragon Essence to save someone. Oh, forget it. I can’t stay on and talk to you any longer. Thank you for your help today. I’m leaving now!”
Then, Darryl turned around to leave the room.
Finally, virtual-novel.net had managed to get rid of Robert’s group; virtual-novel.net wanted to slip away as soon as possible.
“Stop right there!”
Abbess Mother Serendipity yelled as Darryl took the first two steps.
Darryl stopped, looked back and saw Abbess Master Serendipity’s troubled face.
“What’s the matter?” Darryl asked with a smile.
Their gazes met when Abbess Mother Serendipity said in a low voice, “You said that as long as I help you, you would promise me anything. I want you to take me back to the World Universe.”
