later.
At the Yach Manor in Yellow Dragon City, Mistloren.
Darryl laid on the bed in a room, and he had quite a few nightmares.
He dreamt that Jewel had suffered a horrifying death, and those from the Carter family were all
murdered by Zhang Jue.
Fuh!
Darryl was startled awake by the nightmares; he noticed that he wasin a room when he opened his
eyes. He was covered in a cold sweat as ripples of pain spread from the wound in his heart vein.
'Where am I?'
He looked around and noticed that the room had a lavish design with an old furniture layout. The
room looked old-fashioned with its luxurious rosewood furniture.

Darryl was astonished when someone pushed the door open, and a few people entered the room
swiftly.
They were Zhu Zhu Bajie, Cheyenne, her brother, and her cousin sisters.
Cheyenne's cousins were all beautiful women; they were in simple dresses, but they looked charming. They looked
more classy than some famous artists.
Zhu Bajie was the first to approach Darryl with laughter. ''Brother, you're finally awake!''
Zhu Bajie turned to Cheyenne and said, ''My wonderful apprentice, get the housekeeper to prepare some
medication. This is your master's sworn brother. You should address him as your uncle, understood?''
'Apprentice?'
Darryl was dumbfounded to hear that. 'D*mn, when did Zhu Bajie start taking in apprentices?'
Even Cheyenne jerked with surprise before a hint of conflict emerged on her delicate face. ''Master, why should
I? He's a pervert.''
She felt embarrassed and offended when she remembered that Darryl had hugged her. Cheyenne's brother and
cousins stared at Darryl with curiosity.
''Of course, he's my sworn brother.'' Zhu Bajie insisted with his brows furrowed, his tone dignified without any
room for questions.
Cheyenne bit her lips and greeted him. ''Nice to meet you, Uncle.''
Her cheeks flushed red the moment she shouted those words. She was very conflicted about addressing Darryl
that way, but she dared not defy her Master's order.
Darryl nodded in acknowledgment as he stared at Cheyenne from top to toe in a trance.
'Did I mistook that girl as Jewel?'
Darryl had been delirious the day before, but he remembered hugging a girl before he fainted, and he figured that
it was Cheyenne.
He could not deny that her features were pretty similar to Jewel. He could have mistaken her as Jewel when he
saw her in his feverish state.
He felt a pinch in his chest and burned with anxiety the moment he thought about Jewel.
''Brother Zhu.'' Darryl struggled to get out of the bed as he said, ''Hurry, we should go rescue them.''
He wondered what had happened to Jewel and those from the Carter family; he had been unconscious
for a few days.
Zhu Bajie stopped him before he could leave the bed.
''Brother, how can you save them?You're heavily injured.'' Zhu Bajie smiled bitterly as he tried to

to prepare medication for you.''
Zhu Bajie turned to Cheyenne and proceeded to introduce them. ''My wonderful apprentice, I know
that he looks shabby like a beggar, but he is
actually- 11
Darryl stopped him before he could finish that sentence.
"Brot her Zhu, don't disclose my identity,'' Darryl approached Zhu Bajie and whispered in his ear.
His whisper was so light that only he and Zhu Bajie could hear it.
The Endless Sky Organization was under Zhang Jue's control, and they had informants scattered
around the Nine Mainland. He chose not to let Cheyenne and the others lmow his true identity
for safety.
Zhu Bajie was intelligent enough to understand Darryl's intention immediately.
Then he glanced around him and said, ''Long story short, he's my sworn brother, and you have to
treat him with respect. You should take good care of him from today onward. Understand?''
''Yes, Master.'' Cheyenne nodded with clenched teeth despite her unwillingness because she could not
say no.
