Swoosh!
Everyone’s eyes were on Darryl when Chester asked that.
Darryl shook his head and smiled bitterly. “I do pity Megan a little…” Then, he recounted what happened in detail
once more.
Woo!
The entire hall was silent when they knew what had happened. Everyone was quiet; they had a conflicted
expression on their faces.
It turned out that Darryl’s son had killed Megan, and he had buried her alive. It was a little cruel.
They had also heard that Megan was regretful of her actions. Was that even possible?
“Darryl.”
Right at that moment, Chester walked forward and patted Darryl’s shoulder. He comforted him. “Even though I’ve
never seen much of Ambrose, I know that he is a good kid by nature. His hot temper must have led him to bury
Megan alive. Let’s wait until he’s a little older; he’ll mature, and his character will be much more stable then. Don’t
worry. As for Megan, only she would know if she really wanted to turn over a new leaf. Who else would know?”
Chester had always been a wise and stable man. He did not need to guess that Ambrose had buried Megan alive
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtbecause of his hatred for Darryl.
Then, Dax had no reservations when he said, “You think the kid is cruel? I thought it’s a good way to relieve anger!
F*ck! Think about how Megan had treated us previously? Burying her alive is not crossing the line at all.”
Dax had always been hot-tempered. If there were a grudge to be settled, then he would do it. So, he thought that
Ambrose’s actions were right up his alley.
“Very well” Darryl smiled bitterly and waved his hands. He said, “Let’s not talk about this anymore!”
It was fine since no one believed that Megan had turned a new leaf anyway; there was no need to talk about it
anymore.
The next second, Darryl said relaxedly, “I’ll go and extract the elixir, so get ready.”
Then, Darryl instructed the disciples to go and prepare the ingredients needed for the elixir.
Not long after that, the cauldron and the assorted ingredients were prepared. Darryl lit the stove and made the
preparations to extract the elixir.
Woo!
At that moment, Chester and everyone looked at him, but they did not disturb him. Their expressions were
complicated.
Buzz!
Finally, with a rumbling aura, the antidote was completed. Darryl was elated. He quickly took it out and shared it
among the group. “Come, consume it quickly.”
Megan had forced them to consume ten times the usual amount of the Dark Day Pill; they could only live for a
week. At that moment, five days had already passed. They could not waste any more time.
However, none of them took the antidote; they were extremely hesitant.
“Why are none of you taking it?” Darryl was stunned.
“Darryl!”
Chester said, “You said that Megan was the one who gave you the prescription to the antidote. This woman is
extremely cunning and vicious. Could it be a fake prescription?”
The others nodded in agreement.
“Yes, Megan is a vile woman; she might lie to us.”
“Darryl, perhaps you trusted Megan a little too much?”
The crowd continued to comment on that. Darryl did not know whether to laugh or cry; he was extremely helpless.
Darryl would not have believed Megan if he did that two days before that. However, he truly felt that Megan had
wanted to turn over a new leaf; her prescription was definitely real.
One would usually tell the truth when one was on the brink of death. Megan had been very miserable when she was
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmlocked in the dungeon. She did not need to lie to him.
However, only he would understand that. How would he be able to persuade Chester and the others?
Darryl felt helpless.
“Everyone, be quiet!”
The Divine Farmer walked out slowly and scanned his surroundings. “Since we can’t tell if the antidote is real or not,
perhaps I can try it first. ”
“Very well. Sorry to trouble you, Senior.” Darryl was delighted, and he quickly nodded.
Darryl would have refused if it were someone else who wanted to try the antidote. They would die if it were poison.
However, it was different with the Divine Farmer—he was the respectable Medicine Ancestor. They also knew that
the senior had tasted all kinds of herbs before that, and even the more potent ones had no effect on him.
The group had no objections to that.
Gulp.
The Divine Farmer did not bother to say any nonsense. On the contrary, he took one pill and swallowed it
immediately.
Then, he shut his eyes to feel the antidote’s powers silently.
A few minutes passed, but the Divine Farmer’s face was normal; it did not look like there was any discomfort.
“The antidote is real.” the Divine Farmer said as he opened his eyes.
Woo!
