Darryl took a deep breath and said, "I was framed for Zoey's incident. As for leaking information about Dark Cloud City's defense deployment map, I did not do that, nor did I send anyone out."
Darryl spoke firmly!
Darryl was choked with resentment. 'F*ck! I was slandered for Zoey's incident, and now, they're blaming me for Dark Cloud City's defeat.'
'But I haven't done anything wrong!'
White Horse's face stiffened after hearing Darryl's reply. He growled, "You still won't admit your wrongdoings? Darryl, you think you're so good, and you had never taken anyone here seriously, have you?"
Then, White Horse looked around him before he spoke to the group. "Everyone, Darryl is too arrogant. I suggest we put him on trial on the spot!"
White Horse wanted to get things moving, but Darryl was so powerful that he decided to provoke the people around him.
He would not have to fear Darryl, even if he had the Queen of Death to back him, if everyone stood together.
Many people nodded in agreement following White Horse's suggestion.
"Yes! We must not tolerate fallacy!"
"If we let him get away with that, we would be encouraging his atrocities."
Weston stepped forward amid the shouts and pointed at Darryl. He yelled, "Let's stop this nonsense! Watch him, everyone!"
Subsequently, many sect masters discharged their internal energy and encircled Darryl all at once.
"Stop!"
Suddenly, a slender figure stood in front of Darryl.
It was Sara.
Sara's lovely face looked anxious. She looked around the group and shouted, "There must be a misunderstanding. My brother wouldn't do that."
Sara believed that her brother was an open and honest person. How could he possibly tarnish Zoey like that? How could he possibly leak information to Lord Kenny?
"That's right!"
'There's no need to waste my breath.'
Darryl pulled out the Heavenly Halberd. Then, he said to Andy, "I was framed for whatever had happened today, but I must not let you get involved. I will hold them off while you take my little sister and leave."
Sara yelled, "Brother, no! I won't leave you!"
How could she leave Darryl under such circumstances?
Andy stood firm and said firmly, "We are brothers! If I choose to leave when someone has framed you, how would I have the dignity to face the world?"
"I will stay with you through thick and thin!"
Andy's sincerity moved Darryl—he laughed and said, "Okay!"
Darryl held the Heavenly Halberd tightly as he looked at White Horse, Weston, and the others. Then he said, "Just come here if you want to catch me."
The group exchanged looks at Darryl's vehemence; no one wanted to take the lead.
