Rebirth of the Prime Dragon Master
Chapter 1152 Who Was Behind All This

When Isis saw that almost everything was now under control, she entrusted Sabina to take chargewhile she went and looked for Rocky. She knew that Rocky must have gone deep into the enemy'sbase and might need some backup, especially if he had faced the enemy's dreaded Commander inChief. However, since she saw how the mysterious army had lost their edge in this battle, she wassure that Rocky must have done a good job resisting his opponent.

After a while, she was able to replace Rocky. However, she was stunned as she witnessed that Rockywas engaged in a fierce battle against a member of the spiritual race.

Furthermore, it seemed like the enemy could somewhat fight Rocky on equal footing.

Without hesitation, Isis quickly landed on the battleground and came to Rocky's side at once.

"How is it going back there?" Rocky asked as soon as he saw Isis, although he was pretty confidentthat everything was going fine if she was already here to back him up.

"Don't worry. It's almost done. But who is this person? Why is there a member of the spiritual racehere?" Isis cut to the chase and asked about the enemy in front of their eyes.

"He's Alston," Rocky replied with a frown.

"What? Alston? How is he still alive?” Isis was taken aback at what she just heard.

"Oh, it's Isis. Do you remember me? Since you're already here, I might as well kill you first to let Basilknow how it feels to lose his woman right before his eyes! Ha-ha! It's a sight to behold, trust me!"Alston's bloodshot eyes widened as he gritted his teeth. He was full of killing intent and was eagerto do anything to make Rocky suffer.

However, Isis would not let this happen. She immediately gathered her spiritual power all over herbody and unleashed her mighty aura as a Divine Stage master.

"You damn bitch... You have also reached the Divine Stage?!" Alston couldn't believe his eyes. Whenhe was still in the Crimson Dragon Group a while back, Isis was no more than a master of theSupernal Stage. However, right now, it was without a doubt that she had already become a DivineStage master.

Before he could even recover from his astonishment, he suddenly perceived that two more peoplewith auras at the Divine Stage were fast-approaching. In a few moments, they also landed besideRocky. It turned out to be Sabina and Lucilla who also came as support.

As he saw all of them, Alston's face darkened as his entire body trembled in anger. Rocky himselfwas already a burden for him because they were almost at the same level of strength. However, thesituation had turned for the worst now that three more Divine Stage masters joined Rocky's side.With this, he knew that it would be a losing battle if he still pushed through.

He clenched his fists tightly. He had been preparing for this day for such a long time. It was not easyfor him to replace the perfect opportunity to hand Rocky the same humiliation that he acquired fromthe prince.

"Fine. Let's stop right here because you guys have already spoiled the fun. Wait until I fully fused thepower of this spiritual race being's body. I'll come for all of you and make sure that you feel the painof losing everything!" Alston burst into laughter, suddenly rose into the air, and vanished without atrace. He left all by himself without regarding the mysterious army who was still fighting the BlackDragon Group.

Because of Alston's sudden departure, the mysterious army was even put in a more chaoticsituation. They were like a bunch of sheep without a shepherd to lead them. Finally, under thecommand of the Deputy Commander in Chief, the remaining members of the mysterious armyretreated in a very embarrassing way.

As soon as they retreated, the uproar in the Munoz Pass had finally subsided. The Black DragonGroup soon returned inside the pass to regroup and treat the wounded.

"Your Royal Highness, I know that I've greatly wronged you. I may have eyes, but I failed to see thebigger picture. I know my words alone will not make up for my shortcomings, but please accept mysincere apology!" As the Black Dragon Group returned to the Munoz Pass, Boyd was put down fromthe back wall of the city. He immediately rushed to Rocky to admit his faults and give his apologies.He did it in front of everyone and didn’t care even if all his underlings saw it.

At that moment, all of the commanders and the soldiers of the Black Dragon Group realized thateverything that Rocky did was just a provocation to build their morale. He made a villain out ofhimself just to help them surpass their limits. With this, they also immediately bowed andapologized in front of the prince.

"It's fine now. I also want to thank all of you for your hard work. Commander in Chief Boyd, I'll leavethe rest in your hands. I need to go ahead and report to His Majesty in the Imperial City," Rocky saidwith a faint smile. The crisis in the Munoz Pass had been resolved smoothly. Now that themysterious army had fully retreated from the area, the towns that were affected could now startrebuilding again. Therefore, Rocky's task was completed, and he had to go back as soon as possible.Rocky and the three girls bid farewell to Boyd and the Black Dragon Group, despite that Boydpersuaded them to stay for a while so that they could get enough rest. There was a piece ofimportant information that needed to be relayed immediately, so they couldn't delay theirdeparture any longer. Rocky needed to let the emperor know that Alston didn't die. Moreover,Alston's rebirth had something to do with the spiritual race. If his hunch was right, it could be bigtrouble for the empire; thus, he had to discuss it with the emperor as soon as possible.

As they arrived at the Palace City, Rocky immediately asked the emperor if they could talk in private.Then, he told the emperor about his encounter with Alston and how he had been resurrected in thebody of a spiritual race being. Hearing all of these at once, the emperor was also pretty shocked."Alston led an army to attack the border of the Holy Dragon Empire just to lure me out. His desirefor revenge is genuine. With his madness and unscrupulousness, we don't know what he could donext time. Therefore, I suggest that the Palace City must be more vigilant. Father, you must alwaysbe guarded by masters at the Divine Stage.” Rocky told everything in his mind.

"I see. It seems like we really need to add some precautionary measures. But I'm more worriedabout you. You're the main target of his revenge. That's for sure.” The emperor couldnt help butexpress his worry.

"I know. I thought that the feud between us was finally settled when I defeated him. I didn't expectthat it will have another beginning, and this time, I'm sure that it's going to be bigger and moredangerous. Besides, whoever is pulling the strings behind him must have something to do with thespiritual race. That's what I'm more worried about. We need to pay attention to that detail," Rockysaid in a serious tone.

"Could it be the Dragon Master Clan?" It was the first thing that entered the emperor's mind whenRocky told that the spiritual race was involved.

"I actually also suspected them at first, but judging from the body of the spiritual race that he wasrevived into, it doesn't seem to be them. Yet, we still can't erase all possibilities that they'reconnected. I'm thinking of consulting with General Marcia. She might have a better perspective onthis matter.” After conversing with the emperor, Rocky bid goodbye to his father and went on hisway.

Before Rocky left the Palace City, he asked Isis, Lucilla, and Sabina to stay just to make sure that theemperor would be safe. Then, he went to the border, where the Rime Army Group was stationed.Ever since the Holy Dragon Empire broke away from the Dragon Master Clan, the wars on theborders had been inevitable. A day didn't pass that there had been no attrition between the empireand other empires. Moreover, the dispute was only getting more intense every passing day.

The Rime Army Group was one of the most powerful groups in the entire Holy Dragon Empire. Itwas being led by Marcia, one of the Three Great Generals. In terms of combat prowess, they weresuperior to the Crimson Dragon Group, but inferior to the Sky Army Group, which was led by Bryant.Thus, even if the assaults didn't recede, the enemies still couldn't do anything to break through thedefenses of the Rime Army Group.

Since Marcia had always been on the front line, Rocky went straight to the area where he could replaceher.

It didn't take him long before he found Marcia in their camp. As he approached her, he asked herfor some time and told her everything that had happened in the battle at the Munoz Pass.

"Hmm, I think that Reginald must be the one who did it,” Marcia answered after thinking for a while.For her, this was the most probable conclusion from what she heard.

"So, is it the Dragon Master Clan who's supporting Alston from the background? I'm confused as tohow he managed to assemble such a powerful army. Their fighting ability was astounding.” Rockyraised some doubts.

"I don't think Rex could spare any time on dealing with the Holy Dragon Empire with their currentstate. Since the Mu Clan was revived and openly waged a war against Rex, he used every means thathe could to get his hands on just to get rid of them. However, he didn't prevail. In fact, severalmembers of the Dragon Master Clan became dissatisfied with his leadership and defected to the MuClan. Right now, his force was reduced by a lot. I think it won't be long before the Mu Clancompletely takes over the Dragon Master Clan again. With that, I don't think Rex could make anymove to deal with the Holy Dragon Empire right now. The timing is not right, and he does not havethe resources.” Marcia didn't share Rocky's opinion that it might have been the Dragon Master Clanwho was secretly supporting Alston from behind. In this case, a question was still left hanging.Which clan of the spiritual race would dare to deliberately go against the Holy Dragon Empire? Backthen, it was indeed Reginald who drew Alston's soul away. Even if they didn't directly get theanswer, everything pointed out that he was involved in this matter.
