The Empress had not only given him her blessing, but she had also allowed Darryl to support her as they swam
toward the island. The two of them clung to each other during the swim.
What a shame!
The Empress was finally calm. Then, she continued to act cold and aloof toward Darryl. She was also quick with her
commands.
“Darryl! Can you not move your hands?”
“Your Majesty, I need to move my hands to swim and paddle; how can I not move them? Would you stop moving
around?”
“You! After we get to the island, you’ll have to forget about this, do you hear me?”
“Why should I forget about anything? I didn’t do anything to you!”

“Very well…”
As they bickered, Darryl took the Empress with him as they swam behind Yvette; they had gotten closer to the
island.
However, it did seem like it had taken a long time.
Soon, the three of them finally arrived at the shore of that small island. Darryl quickly put the Empress down on the
beach.
As she stepped on the sandy ground, she breathed a sigh of relief. Her acupoint had been sealed, and she had
traveled through a long journey; she had lost her strength.
Darryl and Yvette also sat on the beach as they tried to recover their strength.
After a short rest, Darryl took a deep breath before he stood up and began to explore the island.
He had thought that it was a small island; it had looked tiny from a distance. However, it was actually a huge island.
Darryl felt like it had the size of two Donghai Cities. The island was lush and green, with a mountain that looked like
a thousand meters tall. However, the environment seemed complicated.
“This island is so big!”
Yvette had recovered her strength. As she looked around her surroundings, she exclaimed, “There are mountains
here. I’m not sure if anyone lives there; it doesn’t look like this is Ice Fire Island.”
Yvette looked relieved as she spoke.
If she could survive a catastrophe, she knew that it would be a blessing in disguise. Yvette, her mother and Darryl
were finally out of danger.
More importantly, as long as she could be with Darryl, she was willing to face any hardship.
Darryl smiled faintly. “I’ll go and find out more about this place. You and the Empress should wait for me here.”

“Okay, you go ahead!”
As she stood by the Empress’ side, she yelled, “Be careful. Come back quickly if you sense any danger!” She was
concerned and worried about him. Darryl had been severely injured, so he might not be able to cope with any kind
of danger.
The Empress kept a straight face.
She was not worried about Darryl. On the contrary, she thought that it would be better if something were to happen
to Darryl. Perhaps her daughter would give up on him then.
The Empress had a grudge against Darryl after the Emperor’s death.
Meanwhile, on Darryl’s side…
After he ventured into the jungle, Darryl noticed the area’s primitiveness. The small island was uninhabited; it was a
deserted island.
Then, Darryl found a cave when he reached the mountain.
