Rebirth of the Prime Dragon Master
Chapter 1073 Resume The Engagement

Without a doubt, Rocky's appearance, together with Robin and Ken's performance stunned theentire Ji Clan. On the other hand, Rocky, who had already left the Ji Clan, came back to Evian City'sbase camp right away so as not to expose his identity. After all, he knew that Elvis and Sabina wouldbe able to deal with what might happen next.

After returning to the base camp, Rocky went back to the Isis Pavilion to see Isis and their son.However, when he got there, Isis and their son were with someone he had not seen for more thansix months—Marcia.

At that moment, Marcia's maternal instincts kicked in as she cradled Nigel in her arms. She gave himthe warmest smile as if she were staring at her own child.

It was not until Rocky appeared that Marcia returned Nigel to his mother, Isis. As soon as she let goof the child, her arrogance radiated again and she looked at Rocky with her eyes slightly shaking."When did you arrive?" Rocky asked Marcia as he raised his eyebrows

"I just arrived yesterday," Marcia replied in a low voice. Then, she asked, "So, how is the matter withthe Ji Clan going?"

"I think Alston must be mad right now," Rocky said with a gentle smile.

"Well done. But just so you know, a crazy dog will bite people,” Marcia said expressively.

"The truth is, it's not Alston I'm worried about. What I'm worried about is that the Dragon MasterClan is in the backstage supporting him,” Rocky said thoughtfully. Based on what he knew, Alstonhad sent people to look for the spiritual treasure. With this, he was certain that Alston had thesupport of the Dragon Master Clan.

"What? He has support from the Dragon Master Clan?" Marcia could not help but frown. WhenRocky told her about this not long ago, fear surrounded her bones, for this was exactly what shewas worried about. That was because, if the Dragon Master Clan supported Alston, then thesituation would only become more complicated than it already was.

"General Marcia, tell me. How much do you know about spiritual treasures? What is it used for? Whydid the clans of the spiritual race, including the Dragon Master Clan, scramble to replace it?" Rockyinterrogated Marcia.

"I only know that the sealed spiritual treasures are very ancient and can date back to the beginningof the spiritual race. Unfortunately, I don't know what it is used for. In the spiritual race, the matterregarding the spiritual treasures is considered as taboo, and only a few spiritual masters know aboutit.” Marcia shook her head in dismay and continued, "But you're right. I also replace it really suspiciousthat the Dragon Master Clan would suddenly order Alston to look for the spiritual treasure. Andbesides, do you think it is related to the disappearance of the emperor? Because there is actually aspiritual treasure sealed in the forbidden area of the royal family. *

"Wait, what did you say? There is a spiritual treasure in the royal forbidden area?" Rocky asked insurprise.

"Yes, it is said that a witch of some certain generation brought it back. Since its reopening, it hadbeen sealed in the forbidden area of the royal family from that time. Only the emperor is allowed toenter the forbidden area of the royal family, and only the emperors know the way to it. In fact, eventhe witches could only enter the forbidden area under the leadership of the emperor.” Marcianodded as she spilled the facts.

"So, does that mean that Father's disappearance has something to do with Alston?" Rocky askedwith clear certainty. After all, everything was so related that there could not be such a coincidence inthe world.

"You know what? I should have seen this coming. I have always been so suspicious. Since Alston hastried his best to replace the spiritual treasure, I think that the possibility is even greater,” Marcia saidnoncommittally.

"But, do you think Alston killed Father just so that he can get his hands on that spiritual treasure?”At that moment, Rocky couldn't help but think of the worst situation.

"We don't have to make any baseless guesses right before we even conduct the investigation.Moreover, Alston can't deal with the emperor, especially with the strength that he has. Perhaps,there are other underlying reasons which we are not aware of. Generally speaking, the mostimportant thing we have to deal with right now is to defeat Alston. We must make him resign fromhis position as the emperor and stop him from acting like this. Otherwise, the Holy Dragon Empirewill soon collapse!”

"Count me in. I'm ready to do that." Rocky clenched his fists as he had been waiting for this day fora long time.

"But we still need a chance. That's all we need to make this happen.” Marcia nodded in agreement."If it were up to me, I would go straight to the Imperial City and have a duel with Alston,” Rocky saidas the corners of his mouth curled upward.

"But we both know that it's impossible. After all, Alston is the emperor now and has the support ofthe whole royal family. Rocky, you, of all people, should be very clear about the strength of the royalfamily. It's not good for us to fight head-on, and it will also cause unwanted turmoil. Now, everyonein the Holy Dragon Empire is jittery. All we have to do is defeat Alston, and get the Holy DragonEmpire back on the right track,” Marcia said with seriousness in her voice.

"Then, what kind of chance do we need?" Rocky suddenly inquired.

"Alston's two plans to deal with the Ji Clan have already failed, and he will definitely not wait anylonger. Surely, he will take the next step soon. Perhaps, this is a good chance for us,” Marcia said asif she had already foreseen what was about to happen.

Sure enough, two days later, Marcia received the news from her spy that she assigned in the PalaceCity.

After learning about the news, Marcia immediately gathered Rocky and others to have a meeting."What? Alston proposed to the Ximen Clan that he would marry Shirley? I never expected Alston tohave the heart to marry such an unruly woman..." Rocky couldn't help teasing after hearing the newsfrom Marcia. To him, he had the impression that Shirley was an extremely unreasonable woman."Ah, everything makes sense now! After failing twice with the Ji Clan, Alston's only hope now lieswith the Ximen Clan. If Alston doesn't subdue the Ximen Clan as his followers, then his unstablefoundation will be shaken again. If any force revolts, a terrible civil war may happen in the entireHoly Dragon Empire..." Marcia muttered.

"I'm afraid so. Plus, if Bryant agrees to the proposal, then surely, it will be a great help to Alston.”Rocky frowned upon realizing what they were up against.

"But, I don't think Chief Bryant will agree easily. After all, what Alston has done is completelyunsatisfactory. The chance of Chief Bryant supporting Alston is very slim right now,” Lance said afterthinking carefully.

"I agree with you. But knowing Alston, he will surely try his best to force Bryant to compromise. TheXimen Clan is close to the royal family. If Alston is cruel enough, then he will have lots of methodsto threaten Bryant,” Marcia added.

"Then what's your idea, General Marcia?" Rocky looked at Marcia and asked with eager eyes.

"If I remember it correctly, you have been engaged to Shirley before, right?" Marcia thought for awhile and asked Rocky.

"Yes, it seems so, but I think I have sort of broken off the engagement,” Rocky replied.

"It doesn't matter. What's important is that Miss Shirley doesn't want to marry Alston,” Marcia saidwith her narrowed eyes.

"So, are you suggesting that I resume the engagement and remarry Shirley?" Rocky immediatelyguessed what was on Marcia's mind.
