For a man as despicable as Zhang Jue, death is the only thing he deserves,’ Darryl thought with an
emotionless face.
The North Moana army’s soldiers and generals, on the other hand, were restless. Many had wanted to
interfere but were far too intimidated by Lu Dongbin to step forward. Zhang Jue fell to his knees; he
knew that he could not turn the situation around anymore.
“My own ambition blinded me. I was wrong; please have mercy…” Zhang Jue was helpless; he had never
imagined himself in such a situation where he would be villainized and landed in such a vulnerable state.
If only Yang Jian were around, he would not have to fear Lu Dongbin. However, he was not there, so he
could not rely on anyone.

Whatever the circumstances, Dax did not belong to the North Moana continent. No matter Zhang Jue’s offenses,
he was still the North Moana continent’s commander. Chang Er should decide his fate.
Instantly, all eyes were on Chang Er with anticipation. Zhang Jue’s life hung by the tread, and Chang Er was the
only one who could either save or kill him.
A man as cunning as Zhang Jue was no fool. He realized that, and so he immediately turned to Chang Er. He
kowtowed and pleaded with her. “This humble man is here to greet your ladyship. My sincerest apologies for
the incivility earlier. Please have mercy on me…”
Chang Er sighed when she saw Zhang Jue’s sincerity; it seemed like the man had given up. She said gently,
“Very well, you may rise. Since you are aware of your wrongdoings, I will spare your life. But this will be your last
chance. Be wise with it, or I will have your head.” Chang Er turned to look at Darryl before she said, “Zhang Jue,
from that moment onward, you will assist Darryl Darby and contribute fully to the cause of defeating the
Raksasa Tribe. You mustn’t act against him, am I understood?”
Zhang Jue’s heart stopped at the order; he doubted his ears. ‘What?! She wants me to assist Darryl Darby? How
can a man with my talents follow Darryl Darby, who is merely a junior?’ he thought to himself. Instantly, his face
reddened with reluctance.
Chang Er observed Zhang Jue’s face with watchful eyes and immediately noticed his disinclination. “Why? Are you
not willing to do so?” she questioned in annoyance.
“I am willing; I am willing!” Zhang Jue sobered and nodded frantically. He stood up and walked toward Darryl
before he bowed deeply and said, “My respect to Sect Master Darby, I shall follow you and heed your every
order.” Zhang Jue kept his expression respectful, but his eyes remained cold. He was meant to rule over the
Nine Mainland; how could he possibly work under Darryl? He had decided that he would pretend to
compromise for the time being and kill Darryl whenever the chance presented itself.

Darryl smiled mysteriously without a word in response. The way he looked at Zhang Jue had the other man
anxious with uncertainty. ‘D*mn it! Is he plotting to kill me for trying to frame and kill him a couple of
times before that?’ Zhang Jue thought.
Meanwhile, on the other side of the Chaotic Mountain Range, a monk strode swiftly ahead in the woods
approximately a dozen kilometers away; he dragged an enormous stone chest along the way. With a
dark expression, his attractive features were stunning and yet somehow evil-looking. The monk was
Donoghue.
Indeed, Donoghue had captured more than a dozen people to decipher the ancient wordings on the stone
chest. After that, Jack Trevor from the Mouse Sect had managed to discover the information about a
hidden treasure, which could be the key to unlocking the box. The other treasure was located next to the
Chaotic Mountain Range.
Motivated by the news, Donoghue immediately headed for the Chaotic Mountain Range. However, he
found nothing in his search in the area with a radius of over a hundred kilometers. Apart from Raksasa and
the Nine Mainland military camps, the woods he was in was the only place left to search.
