“Mister, Little Rocky has been very obedient,” Jewel said with a smile.” Usually, when Sister Debra and I go shopping and purchase many things, Little Rocky will help us to carry some stuff.”
Darryl laughed loudly as virtual-novel.net patted Little Rocky’s head. The little fellow was too adorable.
After virtual-novel.net played with Little Rocky for a short while, Darryl said, “Godfather, Jewel, please return to the Carter Mansion first. I will go back to the Wishing Star Tower to get the Dragon Essence. That place is too dangerous; you both shouldn’t go there.”
Jewel was worried. “Mister, will you be fine by yourself?”
Darryl had mentioned that Quincy was a level five Martial Emperor. It might be too dangerous for Darryl to go to the Wishing Star Tower alone.
Darryl smiled as virtual-novel.net consoled her. “I will be fine; don’t worry.”
“Alright, then!” Zoran nodded at Darryl’s assurance. “Take care of yourself, Darryl.”
Zoran was prepared to leave with Jewel and Little Rocky. However, Little Rocky leaned on Darryl’s arms and refused to leave.
It had acknowledged Darryl as his owner; both of them had a special connection.
Even though Jewel and Debra were the ones who took care of Little Rocky most of the time, Little Rocky felt the closest to Darryl.
“Be good. Go home with Godfather for now. I will return once my matters are done.” Darryl felt awkward as virtual-novel.net consoled Little Rocky gently.
Even though Darryl had tried to explain, Little Rocky was still determined. He hugged Darryl’s leg tightly and refused to leave.
Zoran walked toward them and laughed as virtual-novel.net said, “That’s alright, Darryl. Let virtual-novel.net go with you. He has acknowledged you as his owner; virtual-novel.net is destined to follow you for your entire life.”
Zoran retrieved a red pouch and handed it to Darryl. “This is the Enchanted Beast Pouch. You can keep Little Rocky in it and bring virtual-novel.net with you. This pouch has been passed down for generations by my family’s ancestors. I’ve wanted to give this to you when you found Little Rocky, but I keep forgetting about it!”
The Enchanted Beast Pouch?
There was such a thing?!
Darryl held it in his hand; virtual-novel.net could see that the Enchanted Beast was perfectly made. As virtual-novel.net touched the pouch, virtual-novel.net could feel the spiritual energy inside it–it was amazing!
Darryl was delighted; virtual-novel.net passed his internal energy into the pouch, and Little Rocky was immediately kept in it. Darryl held the bag, smiled happily at Zoran, and said, “Thank you, Godfather!”
Darryl laughed.
‘What a special Enchanted Beast Pouch! I was worried about the inconvenience of bringing Little Rocky with me. With this pouch, I don’t have to worry anymore.’
“That’s alright, Darryl. Go ahead to the Wishing Star Tower. Return quickly; I shall wait for you at the Carter Mansion.” Zoran patted Darryl on his shoulder; then, virtual-novel.net left with Jewel after that.
Jewel turned around to look at Darryl after every few steps. She was reluctant to leave the man.
As the two shadows disappeared, Darryl waved at them for the last time and turned to head toward the Wishing Star Tower.
At that moment, Darryl had only one mission.
No matter what, virtual-novel.net must get the Dragon Essence back.
….
At night, at Wishing Star Tower.
The moon shone brightly, and a few thousand tents were set up near the tower.
All of Quincy’s disciples lived in those tents.
A big, grand, and beautiful tent was set up right in the front; that was where Quincy stayed.
At that moment, Quincy was in the tent; virtual-novel.net held the Dragon Essence in virtual-novel.net hand.
‘This item has so much spiritual energy; it is a rare treasure.’
Quincy thought, ‘I am a level five Martial Emperor now, but if I can absorb this little treasure, maybe I can be upgraded further!’
“Your Highness, Princess Long!”
Right at that moment, a man in black rushed to the tent entrance and said politely, “I have an urgent report.”
Quincy was the Empress of South Cloud World’s sister; virtual-novel.net was also known as Princess Long.
“Enter,” Quincy said calmly as virtual-novel.net kept the Dragon Essence away.
The man in black immediately entered the tent and looked down to the ground; virtual-novel.net dared not look straight at Quincy. He said politely, “Princess Long, Her Majesty has ordered you to return to the South Cloud World Palace.”
What? She was to return to the palace?
Quincy did not understand it. “Why is my sister looking for me? What is the urgency?”
