Darryl was so excited by Caelan's phone call that he could not fall asleep!
The Eternal Life Palace Sect had eradicated the Dixon family!
Timothy Dixon, the patriarch of the Dixon family was killed under Caelan's plans. His four stepsons — Zephyr, Nimbus, Levin, and Volt — were captured and locked in the Eternal Life Palace Sect's hall.
Donoghue who was previously slashed by Darry over 300 times and had not recovered from his injuries received numerous more slashes when Eternal Life Palace Sect eradicated the Dixon family.
However, Donoghue's body was missing when they cleared the battlefield.
Caelan insisted that Donoghue would not be able to survive after suffering such heavy injuries.
Caelan sighed toward the end of their conversation. "Hall Master, the Dixon family commited all sorts of vile acts since their main income comes from prostitution and gambling. They own several large hotels that are also involved in the illegal sex industry, casinos, and even oppress the local residents. Yunzhou City's residents are displeased but dare not say a word against the Dixon family."
Darryl was excited and gratified as he furrowed his eyebrows. "Shut down all those illegal businesses. We must not bully the locals once we take over the Dixon family. Do you understand? We shall only conduct proper businesses and nothing illegal!"
"Understood."
...
Darryl rushed to Hexad School early the next morning.
Darryl was thrilled upon the eradication of the Dixon family and slept soundly the previous night. He was refreshed and invigorated when he woke up that morning.
He saw that Dax had already arrived when he reached the classroom.
Darryl walked toward Dax with a beaming smile and felt something off with the classroom atmosphere as he sat down.
The people around Darryl looked at him with eyes were filled with ridicule and mockery while trying to hold back their laughter.
Darryl sighed. There was no doubt they must have known about what happened yesterday at the Elixir Competition.
Darryl pretended not to have seen them and smile at Dax before softly saying "Dax, I have good news for you. The Dixon family has been eradicated."
Such good news naturally must be shared with good friends.
Da laughed upon hearing Darryl's words. "Darryl, I know about this last night. I hear none of them were left alive. F*ck, I'm so happy simply thinking about it!"
Dax continued "It's a pity I don't know who did it, else I'll properly thank him."
A pretty figure stepped into the classroom as Dax finished his words. It was their teacher, Isabela.
Their first lesson was Alchemy. Isabela wore an emerald green dress that looked modern and refined.
"Miss Monte is a real beauty."
Several of the male students in the class could not help but exclaim.
However, everyone could tell Isabela was in a bad mood today. There was a sullen expression on her pretty face. It was obvious she was still depressed from losing the Elixir Competition yesterday.
Darryl sighed as he thought about looking for an opportunity to console her.
At that moment, Miles grinned and said "Miss Monte, I hear that you participated in the Elixir Competition yesterday."
The students in the classroom all gazed at Isabela upon hearing his words.
In truth, everyone already knew about what happened yesterday. They had no intentions of mocking Isabela, but rather they wanted to take the opportunity to embarrass Darryl.
Isabela merely nodded as her face was flushed red with embarrassment from the mentioning of yesterday's Elixir Competition.
Sure enough, Miles looked toward Darryl with a face filled with ridicule upon seeing Isabela nodding. "Darryl, you know how to refine pills too? Why didn't you help Miss Monte win the championship?"
Several of the other students jeered after Miles finished his words.
"That's right. Miss Monte, you've got too much faith in Darryl. How would a live-in son-in-law like him know how to refine pills?"
"Exactly, Miss Monte won't have lost so badly if not for his fooling around. She isn't even in the top 10."
Darryl could not be bothered entertaining them and simply smiled with indifference.
Isabela was a little anxious and stepped in. "All of you, stop mentioning it anymore. Actually, it was my own mistake during yesterday's Elixir Competition, it has nothing to do with Darryl."
Declan could not help but stand up and said "Miss Monte, you don't have to explain yourself. It's clear to everyone that Darryl has dragged you down. You're a kind person that's why you won't be impolite to say it out."
Declan looked at Darryl and continued "Darryl, Miss Monte lost so badly because of you. Don't you have anything to say for yourself?"
