Rebirth of the Prime Dragon Master
Chapter 1117 You Will Surely Die

"Did you tell General Marcia about this?" As Bryant studied Rocky, he could not help but praise theprince internally. Rocky was so much younger than him, and yet, he always showed great courageno matter the circumstance. Suddenly, he felt ashamed of his inferiority.

"She will never agree, so I want to ask you for a favor, Chief Bryant. When the time comes..." Rockyleaned closer to him and whispered the details secretively.

As he listened, the frown on Bryant's face grew bigger and bigger. He hesitated for a short while,but he nodded his permission in the end because the prince had made this plan and he had noreason to object. As a loyal courtier of the Holy Dragon Empire, he naturally had to protect theemperor.

Seeing that Bryant was receptive to his wishes, Rocky smiled gratefully at him. "Thank you, ChiefBryant."

"Prince Basil, if you are lucky enough to get through this safe and sound, and if one day you canascend the throne, you can count on my support and the support of the Ximen Clan," Bryantpromised as he patted Rocky on his shoulder with his thick and sturdy palm. In his mind, Rocky hadshown that he truly deserved to be admired. He had exhibited the character of a great leader, andas a prince, he always took the lead in dealing with any difficult tasks. In a word, he was exemplary."Well, we'll talk about that later. But still, thank you," Rocky said calmly, as he turned away.

Soon, the sun fell from its perch in the sky, covering the whole land in darkness.

The rescue team set out as soon as the night fell, and went to where they suspected that theemperor was imprisoned. Marcia took the lead, so their journey went smoothly, but they still had tobe careful. The supernatural beasts dared not step into the Dragon Master Clan's territory, but theycould not let their guard down as the danger was around them. If their whereabouts were exposed,the entire Dragon Master Clan could surround them in an instant.

About two hours later, after circling half of the Dragon Master Clan’s territory, the rescue teamfinally arrived outside a valley. The entrance to the valley was in the shape of a very steep slope, andthey could see faint lights flashing inside.

"General Marcia, what is this place?" Rocky asked, studying the valley curiously.

"This is the Dead Valley of the Dragon Master Clan, a place where they imprison those who haveoffended the Dragon Master Clan, or have violated their taboos. Moreover, once they enter thisvalley, they will not be able to leave for the rest of their lives, so most of the people who haveentered here die inside.” Marcia's face changed slightly. It seemed that the mention of the DeadValley also reminded her of some painful memories.

"Is my father locked inside?" Rocky asked softly, and his voice betrayed the youth he still held, whichwas made more obvious now that his father was in danger.

Marcia hesitated to answer, which was already an answer in itself. "I'm not sure, but it's highlypossible.”

"Well, let's get ready to move.” Rocky nodded at her one last time before he turned to the others.Soon, they were preoccupied with planning what they were going to do once they entered theprison.

Rocky and his companions observed that there were more than thirty spiritual slaves, and more thanfive ordinary spiritual beings guarding the valley. They didn't know where the emperor was lockedup, so it would be challenging to replace and save him, not to mention the powerful guards that werewaiting for them.

"First, we need to distract those spiritual slaves. Then, Chief Bryant and I will deal with the rest of theordinary spiritual beings,” Marcia said, sharing her plan with the group.

"Let me serve as the distraction for those spiritual slaves. Then, Master and Sabina, you two will goseparately and look for the emperor," Rocky added after thinking for a while.

Sheridan shook his head in disagreement at Rocky's plan, as a stern expression cast shadows on hisface. It was rare for him to be so serious. "I think Rocky will be our best bet for rescuing theemperor. On the other hand, the three girls and I will serve as a distraction for those spiritual slaves.If you replace the emperor, you can take him away first while we take care of the rest.”

"But..." Rocky was hesitant to agree because he knew that it was a very dangerous task. There were alot of spiritual slaves, so he didn't want Sheridan and Sabina to take the risk.

"Basil, if we want to successfully rescue the emperor, your invisibility power is a great necessity,"Sabina said immediately.

However, the frown on Rocky's face refused to fade.

"Don't be so indecisive. Are you underestimating us? Do you think that we could not handle a fewspiritual slaves?" Shirley snorted, rolling her eyes in dismay.

On the contrary, Lucilla's voice was comforting and gentle when she spoke. "Don't worry about us.”Marcia also took this time to add, "Just let them go." It seemed that she too agreed with Sabina andthe others on this matter.

Seeing that everyone was determined to assign him to the emperor's retrieval, Rocky could onlyagree. He clenched his fists and answered with gritted teeth, "Okay, but you must be very careful.”Now that he had finally agreed, the others were quick to nod and get on with the planning.Sheridan and the three women summoned their spirit-manipulated beasts and rushed into thevalley, causing a stir within the enemies’ ranks deliberately. The spiritual slaves guarding the DeadValley were alarmed, and they surrounded the intruders from all directions.

The foursome retreated as soon as they saw that they had attracted the attention of the spiritualslaves. They backed away and let their enemies follow them out of the valley.

On the other hand, several ordinary spiritual beings that were guarding the inner side of the DeadValley also looked at each other in alarm when they heard the ruckus from outside. From the noise,it seemed that some people were trying to break into the Dead Valley that night.

They were distracted with what was happening outside, so they failed to notice when two figuressuddenly appeared in front of them.

The ordinary spiritual beings shouted in alarm, looking around warily.

In front of them, the two figures were shrouded in darkness, moving so quickly and stealthily likethey were as one with the shadows. Fighting erupted in the inner valley, and despite theoverwhelming number of ordinary spiritual beings, the two figures appeared to be winning.

Almost at the same time, a figure appeared silently on the left side of the Dead Valley, and he beganto peer through every holding cell. Some Dragon Master Clan's members who were locked upinside the wall holes heard the noise from outside, and they immediately let out all kinds of excitedscreams that resonated through the whole Dead Valley.

"Father, where are you?" There were too many holes on the cliff! Rocky had been searching for along time, but he could not replace the emperor. Robin and Ken were also looking for his father in twoother places, but they made no progress either. In the end, his exasperation led him to cry out loud,and he hoped that the emperor would hear him and answer.

As he passed by one of the wall holes that served as a holding cell, he suddenly detected anamazing aura coming from inside. It felt like he was facing a huge wave with overwhelming power,which made him stop involuntarily.

"Young man, I know where to replace the person you are looking for! However, as a human, how canyou break into the Dragon Master Clan to save a person? Do you want to die so badly?" A deepvoice echoed from behind the wall.

"Do you know where my father is?" Rocky immediately asked, surprised.

"Of course," the voice inside the cave answered at once. Rocky didn't believe him at first. His eyesnarrowed suspiciously at the hole in the wall and asked, "Well, are you going to tell me where he is?Or maybe you want something in exchange.” He became quiet for a few seconds as if he wasthinking, then he asked again, "Do you want me to let you out in exchange for the informationabout my father's whereabouts? Besides, how do I know if you are telling the truth?"

"Ha-ha, if I want to get out of here, how can the Dead Valley block me? I just want to remind youthat you are digging your own grave by doing this. You may still survive if you leave now, but oncethe spiritual masters of the Dragon Master Clan arrive, you will surely die!” The voice laughedarrogantly.
