My Substitute CEO Bride
Chapter 1744

Dermott was so frightened that he peed his pants. Dogs in this secret realm were powerful beings. Dermott thought that would be the end of his cultivation in the Profound Reality Realm because his life would end here. Nash used his spiritual power and found out that the person hiding behind the Chaos Tower was Dermott. He immediately yelled loudly, "Doggo, come back!"

Husky was about to maul Dermott in one bite. It restrained its strength when it heard Nash's command.

"Nash..." Dermott walked out from behind the tower, eyes teary.

He was so moved to see Nash. He wanted to rush up to him and kiss him a few times.

Nash looked at the disheveled Dermott, curled his lips, and asked, "How did you end up like this?"

"Nash, I've been so miserable!" Dermott bitterly recounted his experience when he entered the secret realm.

He wandered a deserted island without flowers, grass, or trees. It was a desolate place with no fresh water. He suffered from hunger for almost half a month.

He did not know how to swim, had no cultivation, and no fresh water. He almost died on that deserted island.

Nevertheless, there was always a way out. Just when his heart was filled with despair, he found a piece of driftwood floating in the sea.

He relied on that piece of driftwood to float across the ocean. It took him two days and two nights to reach Blacksoil.

After walking on Blacksoil for two days, he stumbled upon a teleportation array, passed through the portal, and landed in this space with mountains and freshwater.

"No wonder Eric didn't replace you in Blacksoil. It turns out you've wasted so much time! But then again, why are you here on this mountain?" Nash stared at Dermott intensely and asked.

Dermott dodged his gaze and stammered, "I... I'm looking for something to eat!"

Nash knew at a glance that Dermott was lying. He smiled lightly. "You know this is the Ancient Demon Ruins, and you're here to hunt for treasures, right?"

Nash thought, 'There are forests and streams at the foot of the mountain. Why go thousands of meters up the mountain to replace food? Does he really think I'm a fool?'

Dermott smiled and said, "Nash, are you here to hunt for treasure too?"

Nash said, "I've claimed the treasures here!"

Dermott's eyes dimmed. "The heavens and earth belong to those who are destined to possess them. Maybe I'm not destined for that!"

Nash asked in confusion, "How do you know about the Ancient Demon Ruins?"

Nash only knew about the ruins because it was Ditto who told him. The Titan came here because he had been in the secret realm all along and was one of the deities who participated in the Battle of Immortal Falls.

It was incredible that Dermott could replace this place.

"Would you believe me if I told you it was my ancestor who told me in a dream?" Dermott asked in a joking manner. Nash smiled and said, "I believe you!"

Dermott took out a hand-drawn map

from his pocket. "Some time ago, my ancestor gave me a hand-drawn map in a dream. He told me that if I could replace the Ancient Demon Ruins in Immortal Falls, I might be able to replace some treasures!"

Husky said, "You aren't human!"

"What the heck?" Dermott jumped up suddenly.

He looked at Husky in shock and asked, "Did you just talk?"

"Who else could it be?" Husky said with a grin.

"But why are you cussing me out, Mr. Dog?" Dermott asked cautiously.

Husky squatted on the ground and said calmly, "When did I do that?"

Dermott smiled sheepishly and said, "You just said that I'm not human!"

Husky snorted coldly. "I'm not wrong. You're not the only non-human. No one in your family is a human." Dermott's expression turned ugly. He wanted to punch the dog a few times even if he could not defeat it.
