Before Gonggong’s arrival, Darryl had analyzed Mid City’s map carefully. He had a new plan to give up Mid City
temporarily and retreat to the Wicked Valley in the northern suburbs.
After all, there was a massive disparity in powers on both sides. If they continued for much longer, Darryl’s side would
only become more passive and defensive.
The Wicked Valley that Darryl had mentioned was the Elysium Gate’s Ten Heaven Masters’ territory. When he had just
founded the Elysium Gate, he heard a group of men who had claimed the valley as their own and caused trouble to the
surrounding villages. The leader was called Oldest Villain One, and with his nine brothers, they were called the Ten
Villains. So, Darryl ordered the Elysium Gate Sect to destroy them. He subdued the Ten Villains and renamed them the
Ten Heaven Masters.
That incident had happened more than ten years ago, but Darryl still remembered it clearly. The Wicked Valley had high
and treacherous mountains. It was easy to defend but hard to attack. If they could trap the North Moana Army there, it
would be hard for Yang Jian to invade the other cities.
After he came up with that plan, Darryl thought about how he would execute it under the North Moana Army’s radar.
After all, it was a colossal task to evacuate everyone from Mid City, and they would be noticed easily.
Coincidentally, Gonggong was there to persuade them to surrender. That gave Darryl a great chance.
Darryl had decided to head to the North Moana camp with Gonggong to see Yvette and the other cultivators. All of the
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtNorth Moana Army’s attention would be on him, and that would give the Carter family and the Westrington Army time to
head to the Wicked Valley to deploy their defenses.
When he was finished with his explanation, Darryl looked at the night sky outside and said grimly, “The Ghost Valley Sage
told me that I need to be flexible in my thinking. I cannot be confined to my own reasoning. I think I understand his words
a little bit more now. We would burn out if we were to hold on to Mid City. So why don’t we change to another place
instead?”
When he said that, an image of the Ghost Valley Sage appeared in Darryl’s mind. He felt quite emotional. It would be
great if the Ghost Valley Sage were still by his side.
Woo!
Everyone else was enlightened when they heard what he had said. They smiled.
At that moment, Dax chuckled out loud and punched Darryl’s shoulder. “I’ve always known that you are a righteous
person. So why would you be afraid of death and surrender to Yang Jian?”
Darryl rubbed his shoulder, smiled, and said, “Do I still need to explain that? I was afraid that Gonggong would be
suspicious, but when she saw how angry Dax was, her suspicions were all gone!” Darryl laughed.
“I—”
Dax scratched his head in embarrassment. “I was very anxious at that time. So, in a way, did I do something right by
mistake?”
Everyone in the hall laughed. The grim atmosphere had lifted.
“Darryl!”
Chester looked at Darryl worryingly and said, “Are you sure it would be alright for you to head to the North Moana camp
alone? Do you need me and Dax to accompany you?”
He was worried that something might happen to Darryl. After all, the North Moana Army was too powerful. Their camp
was exceedingly dangerous and unsafe.
Darryl shook his head. He smiled and said, “Don’t worry; it would be better for me as well. It would be harder if I brought
anyone else with me. So don’t worry about me. Just follow my plan. Head to the Wicked Valley and deploy defenses as
soon as possible.”
“Very well!”
The group responded in unison and quickly walked out of the main hall. Then, they started to execute their plans in
secret.
When the group left, Darryl also walked out of the main hall to meet with Gonggong.
“Sorry for keeping you waiting!”
Once he was at the main entrance, Darryl apologized to Gonggong. “I have made my arrangements. Once I am sure
that the people in prison are alright, I will sign the Letter of Surrender. Then, I’ll bring some men with me and surrender
to His Majesty at the camp early tomorrow morning.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“Very well!”
Gonggong smiled and praised Darryl. “That’s great. I knew you’d go with the flow. You did not disappoint me. I’m sure if
His Majesty knew about this, he would be pleased too.”
At that moment, Gonggong still did not know that Darryl had tricked her. The Carter family and the Westrington Army
would not surrender to Yang Jian the following day. Instead, they were changing their base to the Wicked Valley
discreetly.
Darryl smiled, but he said nothing.
Then, Gonggong led Darryl toward the North Moana camp.
