Rebirth of the Prime Dragon Master -
Chapter 123 A Nationwide Announcement
Though he was only able to peep at her profile, Rocky was captivated by the amazing smile of thegirl in front of him. Looking at her adorable smile, he was fascinated as if staring at the starry sky.Having been networking in a wheeling-and-dealing Palace City for such a long time, it was the firsttime that he got to see such a heartfelt smile. She looked purely happy. There was innocence in thatsmile which reminded him of a new-born baby.
A pair of special upturned eyes, perfectly matched her gracefully crafted face. Her skin was prettytanned yet she looked gorgeous
Rocky guessed that she was in her early twenties - the prime of her life. As a beautiful young girl,her existence in this remote place was like a precious treasure of its kind.
'Who is she?" Bewitched by her charm, Rocky could not stop wondering.
Roar! Uriah too seemed to be as fascinated by her as its master. It got too excited and growled.
If Uriah had not made that reckless growl, Rocky might have been able to continue enjoying thebeautiful moment. But now, the whole thing was disturbed.
The beauty saw a man and a spirit-manipulated beast outside the beast stall. Both of them - theman and the beast - were staring at her. She could feel that they were watching her with greatinterest. She felt quite upset by the way they were checking on her. Thus, she could not help lookingdown.
"Ah..." The beautiful girl screamed in consternation. She reached out to a red mantle that washanging beside her and swung her body so that it would be wrapped by the mantle instantly.
The war dragon beside her also roared as she screamed. It looked ferociously at Rocky, but it wasreined in by the beauty and got down on his stomach.
"Who are you? Why are you here?" The beauty wrapped the mantle closely to her body and queriedRocky, who stood outside the beast stall. Rage flushed over her pretty eyes. Instantly, Rocky couldfeel that she was a powerful spirit manipulator.
"She must be at least above the fifth level of the Earthly Stage.” Rocky judged her cultivation baseby sensing the spiritual power. He could not stop being surprised at the power she possessed,though she was so young.
"Me? Oh, I'm just a rookie. I was looking for someone who works in this beast stall... I did not intendto stare at you. I just walked in accidentally!" Rocky felt that the beautiful girl might mistake him as apeeping Tom, so he explained himself to her.
"You have to forget whatever you saw. Otherwise..." The beauty threatened. She looked dignified asshe warned Rocky. But Rocky had met outstanding women earlier like Marcia and Mia. He had theexperience of working with them. He had got a lot of deadly threats from Marcia and endured dailytorturous training session with Mia. Having been quite familiar with their awe-inspiring orders andwarnings, he was quite undisturbed by the beauty's warning.
"OK," Rocky responded indifferently.
Probably it was Rocky's undisturbed response that silenced the beauty. She had not expected such acalm reply to her warning. So she did not say anything and clapped for her war dragon. Having in aquick peep at Rocky, she disappeared from the other end of the beast stall.
Rocky curled his lips in surprise. He looked at the dark green war dragon and wondered how therewas such a war dragon in this small military camp. Because this one was a scarce spirit-manipulatedbeast, even in the Palace City, he could only see a few of its kind.
However, only spirit manipulators above the level of Heavenly Stage could control this war dragon.So he knew that there must be masters above the Heavenly Stage in this small military camp.
But what Rocky cared the most was the beauty. Since she was in the military camp, and was sofriendly with the war dragon. One possibility due to which she was able to get along with it was thatshe was the master of the war dragon. If not that, at least she must have been the close friend of themaster of the war dragon. Or maybe she was the daughter of the master of the war dragon.
In order to drive away his boredom, Rocky tried to analyze and infer her background casually.Suddenly, an old man's voice came from his back, "Why are you standing here? No one is allowedto come close to this beast stable.”
Rocky looked back and there stood an old man behind him. He was about fifty years old with ahunchback and hair graying at the temples. His face was all crinkled but shrewd in a strangemanner.
"Sorry. I did not know that.” Rocky apologized.
"Didn't you see anything?" The old man queried seriously.
"No, I did not." Rocky thought the old man’s serious face was quite weird. As he had been alreadywarned by the beauty earlier, he thought it was better to pretend that he had no idea about it. Hedid not want to get into any trouble.
"Hmm! Then it's fine." The old man seemed to be relieved to hear Rocky's answer.
"You must be a greenhorn here. But remember now! No one is allowed to get near this beast stable,not even a step closer. Otherwise, you will be in great trouble. Understand?" The old man warnedhim.
Rocky nodded his head in agreement. Once the old man was calm, he pointed towards the darkgreen war dragon that was sitting on the ground. He asked, "Whose war dragon is this?"
"This is not something you need to worry about. You'd better behave yourself while you are here.And be careful about what you ask. Now tell me what you are doing here?" The old manquestioned.
"I am looking for something to feed my war beast,” Rocky responded.
The old man looked at Uriah as it stood beside Rocky, and then eyed Rocky. He was stunned for amoment. His lips quivered a little. It looked like he wanted to say something but chose to keepsilence. He began to walk away.
Rocky led Uriah and both of them followed the old man.
The old man guided them to a feeding trough which was filled with a mix of vegetables and meat."Go!" Rocky tapped slightly on Uriah's head.
Uriah did not hesitate to scurry to the feeding trough and wolfed down the food.
"If you want to foster your war beast in here, you need to apply to Master Li for a beast stable. Thefoster fee will be deducted from your military pension,” The old man explained.
"No! But thank you for the suggestion. It has always lived with me and will do so here too.” Rockyshook his head as he declined the offer.
"That's rare. Only a few spirit manipulators prefer to live with their spirit-manipulated beasts. Youare quite special,” the old man said.
Rocky just nodded in politeness but did not say anything. When Uriah finished eating, Rockythanked the old man and left with Uriah.
Seeing the back of the young man and the beast while they were leaving together, the old manmurmured to himself in amazement, "This war beast has reached the second grade of the three-starlevel. How can this weak young man own it? As time passes, he will not be able to control it. It isreally weird."
By the time Rocky and Uriah arrived at the room, Thor and Joss came in. They asked Rocky to jointhem for the drill. In the military camp, when there was no assignments for spirit manipulators, theyusually spent their time drilling.
But Rocky preferred to cultivate alone. He did not want other people to have an idea about the truepower he was hiding. He gently rejected their offer and saw them off. He went back to the room tocultivate by himself.
Two days after Rocky was sent into exile to the Gehenna Border, the emperor of the Holy DragonEmpire made a nationwide announcement about Rocky. The announcement stated that Rocky wasinjured during cultivation and needed to recuperate indoors for a certain time. His marriage with theXimen Clan was indefinitely postponed at that point. There was an uproar among the people of theHoly Dragon Empire upon the announcement.
Rocky had recovered his title as the prince not long ago. He became the star of the future for theHoly Dragon Empire. How was it possible that he got injured during cultivation? How could theyindefinitely postpone the marriage alliance with the Ximen Clan?
