Chapter 884 Discovered (1/2)
Five days later, the black-armored man found an opportunity to sneak away from the Misty Emperor. He appeared at the cave where Darren was imprisoned.
”Darren, where are the others?”
The black-armored man was surprised to find that the others had disappeared.
”I beat them to a near-death state and put them in my Space Ring.”
”What? !” The black-armored man was shocked.
”They are not dead. There is still a chance to save them,” Darren explained with a shrug.
The black-armored man was speechless. And so, he nodded and said, ”So that's how it is. I agree that this is the only way to protect them. Now, are we ready to escape?”
”That's the plan.” Darren nodded.
”Great! I've been waiting for this day, for a long time! Finally, I will be free!” The black-armored man was so excited that his voice began to tremble.
Darren didn't know what to say. He knew that his lie would eventually be discovered. Until then, it was perhaps best not to tell the black-armored man.
”Have you already planned the escape route?” Darren asked when the silence began to gnaw at him.
”Yes! When we escape from the Space-time Palace, you'll help me to cut off the Soul Control Skill, okay?” The black-armored man smiled as he patted Darren's shoulder.
Aware that he couldn't do what the black-armored man had requested, Darren just nodded silently.
”Let's go!” The black-armored man's eyes sparkled with the excitement coursing through him.
As he had mastered a way to open the prison cave, he safely took Darren outside.
Haloes of varied, dazzling light illuminated the sky. Darren was awe-struck with the beautiful scene.
”This place is full of time traps. Once you fall in, you will never get out. Follow me closely,” the black-armored man warned Darren.
”I understand.”
When they flew past some colorful vortexes, Darren could feel the traces of time.
As they continued their journey forward, they met no obstacles, not even a guard.
After a while, a huge black vortex appeared before them.
”Once we fly into the vortex, we will have escaped the Space-time Palace.”
The black-armored man stopped and gaped at the black vortex. Hope blossomed in his heart as the thrill of freedom coursed through him.
