Rebirth of the Prime Dragon Master -
Chapter 116 The End Of The Deadly Fight
Rocky was undoubtedly surprised to hear Marcia say such words in front of a big crowd to protecthim, but he also knew that Alston and Priest Dean wouldn't let him go easily just because of herambiguous words. They had been trying so hard to set him up and kill him since he was one ofAlston's competitors, and now they were about to succeed. Despite their efforts, the mighty GeneralMarcia had shown up at the very critical moment, and they had no plans of backing out now.
"Then don't blame us for being ruthless,” Alston snarled. Although Marcia's words were tooambiguous, which made people wonder about her special relationship with Rocky, Alston didn'tcare at all. He had no intention of letting Rocky go. The evil power which Rocky had just explodedhad disappeared already, which meant that he was very weak now. It was a good chance to kill himand the evil power was the perfect excuse to do so. Anyone using such evil power was regarded as adark demon in the Holy Dragon Empire. Such people could be slaughtered mercilessly. Anyone whokilled such a monster would not be convicted or punished. Immediately, Alston winked at PriestDean, his conspirator. He knew that both of them were thinking the same thing.
Alston thought that even though Marcia was mighty, she was still alone right now. He was notalone; he had Priest Dean, whose strength was also close to the Divine Stage and would be strongenough to hold Marcia for a moment, so that he could take that opportunity to kill Rocky, who wasas weak as a lamb at that moment.
Priest Dean understood Alston's thoughts well. Since they had set Rocky up using such a deadlytrick, they had to kill him. If they failed to finish him off now, he would figure out their trick in thefuture and would take revenge on them. Thus, only Rocky's death would make Priest Dean feel atease.
Without wasting any more time, Alston and Priest Dean dashed towards Marcia and Rockysimultaneously. The onlookers, the royal spirit manipulators, saw that Alston and Priest Dean wereabout to clash against Marcia. They stood there stupefied.
They didn't understand why these people were fighting for someone like Rocky. After all, the threeof them were among the top figures in the Holy Dragon Empire, especially Marcia, who was well-known for her aloofness towards men.
"It looks like they are not going to let me leave here alive today,” Rocky sneered coldly.
Marcia heard Rocky's remark, and narrowed her beautiful eyes coldly. It was strange that Alston andPriest Dean wanted to kill Rocky so desperately. But she couldn't let Rocky die. The Holy DragonBead inside his body was the key to revealing the secret of the silver tattoo on her back. Up untilnow, she had done so much to protect him and improve his strength. If he was killed by those twotoday, what she had done all this while would have been for nothing. Obviously, Alston and PriestDean didn't know her secret. If they had known, they would have thought twice before trying to setRocky up. Now, they had managed to completely anger Marcia.
Some keen onlookers immediately noticed that Marcia was staring at the two of them angrily, andall of a sudden, her delicate body turned extremely bright, like the blazing sun. Along with that, herstrong spiritual power burst forth. Consequently, the square in front of the Witch Palace trembled;dust flew in all directions in the square; the wind howled violently, like a sharp knife piercingthrough her enemies’ body. Marcia had activated her formidable power at the Divine Stage. It wasjust so earth-shattering.
With the sudden increase in her spiritual power, Marcia was the domineering, mighty queen whoruled the space around her. Alston and Priest Dean, who had tried to get closer to Marcia, felt theshocking spiritual pressure rushing towards them. They couldn't move an inch further. Alston wasweaker compared to Priest Dean. Thus, he was the first to suffer. The onlookers saw him turn paleand that he began to vomit blood. His body's vital energy and blood were out of control. As herelayed on his high cultivation base, Priest Dean could still resist the pressing spiritual pressure for awhile. But, if Marcia didn't stop her attack soon, his fate would be sealed.
In other words, if Marcia continued to release her spiritual power, both Alston and Priest Deanwould be killed in seconds.
The royal spirit manipulators retreated as far away from the scene as they could. None of themwanted to be affected by the spiritual power because Marcia's strength was immenselyoverwhelming.
Even though Rocky had seen Marcia activate her power at the Divine Stage before, he was onceagain shocked. He looked at Alston and Priest Dean and thought that they were only reaping whatthey had sown. He couldn't wait for Marcia to kill them both.
"General Marcia, please show some mercy.” Just as Alston and Priest Dean were on their last gasp, aloud voice rang out abruptly. For the two who were struggling desperately for their lives, it felt likethey had never heard a voice more beautiful before, like the sound of an angel who had come tosave them.
When Marcia heard the voice, she steered her attention to the source and saw the emperor of theHoly Dragon Empire, followed by a few powerful royal spirit manipulators. After hesitating for a fewseconds, she finally stopped releasing her spiritual power.
Alston and Priest Dean fell to the ground, panting heavily and desperately, and their faces were aspale as white marble. They didn't dare to look directly at Marcia. They knew very well that if theemperor hadn't appeared in the nick of time, they might really have been killed by her.
The emperor trotted towards Marcia. He did not know why Marcia suddenly wanted to kill Alstonand Priest Dean, but he knew Marcia's personality well. Unless it was absolutely necessary, shewould never kill anyone randomly. But judging from what he had seen, it was obvious that Marciawas determined to kill them.
"What on earth happened here? Why would you pick a fight with General Marcia?" As soon as theemperor reached the three of them, he questioned Alston and Priest Dean
"Father, please allow me to explain. It was Basil—he ignored the guards and tried to break into theWitch Palace. He also killed two royal spirit manipulators and many other royal guards. Priest Deanand I only wanted to stop Basil from making another mistake, but then General Marcia suddenlyshowed up and launched her attacks against us,” Alston complained first, and his eyes grew sharp."General Marcia, is this true?” the emperor asked and turned his attention to Marcia.
"Your Majesty, I launched attacks only because I saw these people trying to kill a man who is weakand has no power to fight back," Marcia replied proudly and threw a cold glance at Alston andPriest Dean.
The emperor glanced at Alston and Priest Dean, and then at Rocky, who looked like a mess and wasseriously injured. His entire right hand was almost ruined, and his whole body was black and blue.The emperor's heart sank and his eyes grew deep. After taking another look around the messysquare and the bodies on the ground, he was shocked by the scene.
It was hard for him to believe that Rocky, whose spiritual power was only at the Earthly Stage, couldkill Alston's personal guards whose spiritual power was at the Heavenly Stage and so many otherroyal guards.
"Your Majesty, I want to see Lena..." Rocky insisted stubbornly. He wanted to see Lena so badlybecause he believed that only she would trust him and prove that he hadn't meant to hurt her."Didn't you hear what Lena's personal maid just said? Lena doesn't want to see you anymore. Whyare you deceiving yourself? If she wanted to see you, she would have come out already,” Alstonyelled at Rocky. However, Alston was the only one who knew why Lena hadn't come out from theWitch Palace. It was not because she didn't want to, but because Lena had fallen into a deep sleepdue to the soporific effect of the medicine she had taken. Alston had to stop Rocky from meetingLena. If they met, they would replace out that there was something wrong about the whole shockingthing that had happened between them.
"No! I don't believe that!" Rocky said agitatedly through gritted teeth, glaring at Alston angrily."You degraded yourself to this extent for a woman?!" Marcia snarled. She was furious when shefound out that Rocky had created the tremendous uproar in front of the Witch Palace only to seeLena. The next moment, she pulled up Rocky, who was lying on the ground due to his seriousinjuries, and slapped him hard across the face.
"Wake up!" she bellowed. Her cold and arrogant eyes flickered with slight irritation.
Marcia's behavior stunned the people around her. It was pretty obvious to them that Marcia caredabout Rocky, and that was why she had tried to kill those two. But they were most curious to knowthe real relationship between Marcia and Rocky.
After receiving the sudden slap across his face, Rocky sobered up a little. Deep down in his heart, heknew that Alston was right—if Lena had really wanted to see him, she would have already come out.It was impossible for her not to know that he had come to replace her after he had made so muchnoise outside. He guessed that the only explanation was that Lena really thought he had hurt herand didn't want to see him anymore. With such thoughts in mind, he suddenly felt disappointedand disheartened. He had done so much to try to see her, to dissolve her misunderstandings abouthim. But all his efforts were in vain.
The onlookers were still looking at him in astonishment because Rocky had even managed to injureAlston moments ago. He had been defeated only when Alston and Priest Dean had joined hands.The evil power which Rocky had suddenly exploded was so terrible; they began to wonder how hehad such evil power.
"Those who are unrelated to this matter, get out of here right now," the emperor ordered sternlyand urgently. He didn't want the incident to be spread far and wide. If that happened, it wouldcreate more unexpected problems.
All the onlookers dispersed as quickly as possible. Before leaving, they couldn't help but wonderwhy Rocky wanted to break into the Witch Palace alone.
