Chapter 2526
Zhang Jue had tricked Jackie into taking the Happy Powder and was waiting in the antehall, but Jackie
did not show up despite how long he waited and so he decided to take a look. His gaze was drawn to
Darryl the moment he entered the hall, much to his astonishment. Even with the cosn1etics, the
three claw marks on Darryl's face were far too apparent for Zhang Jue not to notice him right away.
Zhang Jue immediately leaped into action; he attacked without hesitation.
A strong aura erupted from hirn as he dashed forward.
''Zhang Jue!'' Darryl jerked forward in rage; he was surprised to see Zhang Jue. He never in1agined
he would run into Zhang Jue right then and there.
''Darryl Darby!'' Zhang Jue grinned as indescribable exciteIT1ent and hatred stirred within hirn and
said, ''I was just wondering how I could get a hold of you. I did not expect you to corne to me on your
own. This rnust be fate. You will die today!'' Zhang Jue sumrnoned his inner strength and struck.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtJackie jurnped as the unexpected scene unfolded before her. Her eyes were fixated on Darryl the entire tirne
while she tried to snap out of the trernendous shock.
'That rnan is Darryl Darby?' Jackie managed to sober up in a matter of seconds and shouted furiously, ''Darryl
Darby, how dare you sneak your way into rny territory, you
A minute ago, she was still thinking about how she would rnanage the situation with Darryl's sudden appearance
after he had been missing for more than three years. In the blink of an eye, he was there, in disguise, as he
stood right in front of her. For a wo1nan as prideful as Jackie, how could she possibly accept that someone had
toyed with her? She roared and tried to 1nake her way forward when she was surprised to find out that she had
difficulty using her internal energy. On top of that, a strange force seemed to have suppressed her energy
field.
On the other side of the roo1n, Zhang Jue struck with lightning speed, and before Darryl could react, his hand had
already struck Darryl's body brutally. A vibration rumbled in the air as Darryl's body flew about a hundred meters
backward before it sla1nrned onto the ground. His blood spurted as if it was raining blood.
Pain ripped through his body; it al1nost knocked hi1n out. He could feel his blood flow and energy field were in
disarray within him. Darryl was soon bathed in his own sweat, both from the pain and the danger of death if he
did not have his internal energy to negate the impact. Zhang Jue's attack was truly powerful!
Zhang Jue laughed; he could not have been more excited at the sight. Then, he mocked Darryl. ''What a surprise,
right? Darryl Darby, you might be the Nine Mainland's hero, but you will die at my hands today. With you gone,
nothing can stop Ille from ruling over the Nine Mainland.''
''Zhang Jue!'' Darryl paled in pain as he glared at Zhang Jue. ''Is ambushing another man all you can do? A
man as despicable as you will never gain acceptance from others, even with me gone,'' he said coolly.
''Well then, I will just have to kill whoever refuses to accept me. Don't worry about that.'' With a ferocious
expression, Zhang Jue began to approach Darryl when Jackie shouted from behind him. ''Zhang Jue, don't kill him
yet; we still have use for him.''
Three years ago, Jackie had taken the Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda with complete confidence that she
would be able to utilize its power. However, to her surprise, years had gone by, but she still struggled to unravel
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmthe secret of activating the Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda. How could she allow Darryl to die? With his
death, the Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda's secret would die with him.
''Zip it! Zhang Jue barked before he turned to look at Jackie with a mysterious smile. ''What an
arrogant woman! Do you really think that you have control over the situation? From this moment
onward, I am in charge of the Endless Sky Organization.''
An evil sneer appeared on Zhang Jue's face as he continued to say, ''Are you feeling weak right now? I
have drugged your tea with Happy Powder. Why don't you just lay back, relax, and accept your fate
of becoming mine?'' The man laughed.
What? Jackie's alluring face iinn1ediately flushed crimson at the words; her body trembled from rage.
'Just how shameless and vicious can Zhang Jue be? We have joined forces for over three years now,
and this is how he treats his partner? Damn it!' she thought.
Darryl also observed the interaction while he kept his eyes on Zhang Jue. 'What a snake, he even
plotted against his own partner,' he cursed inwardly.
''Darryl Darby, prepare to die,'' Zhang Jue said.
