Chapter 5913
Darryl wanted to stop them once he realized what was happening, but he was too late.
Pfft...
After swallowing the poison, the men spat a mouthful of blood and stopped breathing almost simultaneously. Bloody hell!
Darryl's face darkened when he saw that scene. He could not stop himself from swearing in his heart.
Why were they so ferocious that they would rather die than submit?
Darryl bent down and searched them while thinking about it. He soon discovered two intricately carved black jade slips.
The Lange family?
Darryl was taken aback when he saw the words on the black jade slip. His thoughts were racing.
Darryl recognized the black jade slip as belonging to the Lange family, even though he rarely visited them. It represented a Lange family disciple. Since that black jade was so unique, it could not be replicated. The Lange family was following him.
At that moment, Darryl stood there, unable to calm down for a long time.
Did Circe send those men? Was it because Veron had gone missing?
If that were the case, the men did not need to kill themselves.
Darryl's mind became more jumbled the more he thought about it. He realized that the problem was more complicated than that.
It appeared that he needed to return to the Nine Mainland as soon as possible.
Darryl did not realize at the time that the men stalking him had nothing to do with Circe. Archfiend Antigonus had secretly dispatched them to keep an eye on Darryl's every move.
...
On the other side, Loona was wandering the streets bored. She had waited a long time, but Darryl still had not returned. She suddenly felt bored.
She saw a newly opened antique shop right then and there and went inside.
The store was small, but the decor was elegant. Entering it gave the impression that one was in Jiangnan Water Village.
Loona looked around and saw a jade scroll on a stand inside. She was instantly excited. She asked the owner, "Sir, how much for that?"
The owner immediately walked
forward and fervently introduced the
product to her. "Miss, you have such
great taste. That jade scroll belonged to an ancient emperor in the Nine Mainland. It is made of pure white jade. It still had the inscription of the emperor just opened my shop today. I'll give you a discount. A million bucks!"
Even if they were in the Raksasa tribe, the common currency was still the Nine Mainland currency.
A million? That was not cheap.
Loona secretly swallowed her saliva before examining the jade scroll.
She had to admit that the jade scroll was lovely. It felt incredible in her hands, but she had no idea if it had come from an ancient emperor or not.
After all, she was from the Raksasa tribe. She was not familiar with the history of the Nine Mainland.
At that moment, a few more customers entered the ship. Hearing the owner mention the price, they exclaimed, "A million? Does that jade scroll worth so much?"
The owner looked proud. "Of course. It's something from the palace. Of course, it's precious."
Then, the owner looked at Loona and asked, "Miss, do you want it?"
Loona gently bit her lips. She was hesitating.
She was not interested in antiques, but when Darryl suggested it, she decided to learn about the Nine Mainland's culture. However, a million bucks is not a small figure.
"Oh?"
A voice of surprise came from the entrance just as Loona was hesitating. Then a well-dressed individual entered the shop.
It was a young man dressed in fur, which was unique to the Raksasa tribe. He had thick brows and big eyes, and he exuded arrogance.
That man was Elgar Hewitt. He was the son of a Raksasa leader. He spent his days lounging around.
Elgar had always liked Loona.
However, Loona was the only Lady
General in the Raksasa tribe. She spent most of her time in the
barracks. It was hard to meet her, so Elgar never had the chance to show her how he felt.
Elgar was taken aback when he saw the casually dressed Loona. Whenever he saw Loona, she was always dressed elegantly in soft armonHe never imagined she would be so sexy and charming in regular women's clothes.
Elgar approached her slowly, ogling her for a few seconds. He laughed and said to Loona, "What a coincidence, Loona! I would never have thought to bump into you here."
It was so hard for Elgar to meet the person he liked. Since he bumped into her that day, he decided to put on a good show.
