Rebirth of the Prime Dragon Master
Chapter 1351 She Misunderstood Him

"That is not what I want. I want to have the same power as you to dominate the world!" Woodsraved wildly, as his eyes flashed with a crazed gleam.

"You have definitely gone off the deep end..." Rocky muttered, shaking his head in dismay.

"Cut the crap! After I catch you, everything will be easily solved,” Woods insisted as maniacallaughter escaped from his lips.

"What are you waiting for? Come at me then!" Rocky waved the Flaming Blade in his hand, as hisface grew darker and darker with each step he took. He felt slightly guilty because he had made agrave mistake. If he hadn't helped Woods become the Timber Deity Empire's emperor, perhapsWoods wouldn't have become like this. Therefore, he had to redeem himself. He had to preventWoods from drowning further in power and desire.

"You know what, there is a secret that neither you nor my sister knows.” As he spoke, Woodssuddenly took out a weapon that resembled a wooden ruler from his sleeve. Rocky could sense thatit was full of strong evil aura, so it must have contained countless original souls.

"It's the Demonic Ruler!" When Glutton, who had been watching from the sidelines, saw theweapon, its eyes flashed with recognition and bone-deep fury.

"That's a forbidden item!" Rocky's eyes turned cold at the sight of the weapon, as he immediatelyrecognized it as a forbidden item.

At first, it seemed incredibly strange that Woods had a forbidden item. But Rocky thought of onepossibility. This forbidden item very likely belonged to the Wood Clan. Elder Evita had told him thatit was impossible for anyone to replace their forbidden item. Perhaps, it was because the forbiddenitem was in Woods' body.

"This Demonic Ruler has been sealed in my body since I was born. I didn't know that until ourpatriarch told me this secret before Alston attacked the Wood Clan more than a year ago. Only thendid I replace out that I have been used by the Wood Clan as the furnace to seal the ruler. I can'tbecome a spirit manipulator because of the ruler,” Woods said resentfully.

"Who helped you take out the ruler?” Rocky knew that Woods didn't have the strength to take outthe Demonic Ruler, so someone else must have taken it out for him.

"You should know who it was,” Woods sneered.

"Alston?" Rocky asked coldly, although he already knew that he was right.

Woods nodded smugly and added, "It is thanks to him that I have this great power now. Eventhough I am not powerful enough, sooner or later, I will also have the kind of power that couldintimidate even the spiritual race, just like you."

As soon as Rocky heard that, he immediately understood that Woods became like this because ofthe forbidden item. The more evil one was, the more easily he would be controlled by the forbiddenitem. Back then, in order to save Lena, Rocky was controlled by the power of the Evil-fight DivineBead. But fortunately, Marcia helped him remove the power of the bead. Otherwise, he would havedied

"Stop it. It's not too late,” Rocky persuaded Woods keenly, for he didn't want to hurt him for Alyssa'ssake.

"No, it's too late." Woods shook his head with a bitter smile. He also knew that the Demonic Rulerhad full control over him right now. Nobody could save him.

The next moment, he became violent again. He waved the ruler in his hand, and the ground in frontof the palace suddenly rumbled and trembled. Rocky felt that his body was getting heavier andheavier as if a mountain was bearing down on him.

When the spirit manipulators at the Immortal Stage and the spiritual masters saw that Rocky hadbeen suppressed by the Demonic Ruler's power, they exchanged glances with each other andimmediately rushed forward, intending to take advantage of Rocky's momentary weakness to killhim. They knew that if they didn't kill Rocky, Rocky would definitely kill them instead.

However, just as they were coming closer, the black light all over Rocky's body suddenly flashed.The flame wings on his back started flapping hard until he was soaring into the sky. The nextmoment, the huge Flaming Blade in his hand made a few flame strikes, which fell to the ground.Bang! Bang! Bang!

The flame strikes covered a range of several hundred meters after they landed with a few loudbangs. They enveloped the spirit manipulators at the Immortal Stage and the spiritual racemembers, and the flames soared into the sky like a beacon.

Then, Rocky dived down and rushed towards Woods aggressively. Between one blink and the next,he disappeared and reappeared in front of Woods.

Woods didn't even flinch in the face of Rocky's breakneck speed. He waved the Demonic Ruler in hishand again, and a tremendous force immediately suppressed Rocky.

At that moment, Rocky felt a tremendous force pressing down on him, but his current strength wasstill above Woods". Even though the Demonic Ruler was very powerful, it couldn't hurt him at all.

In an instant, Rocky broke through the shackles of the great force and rushed in front of Woods. Hewaved the huge Flaming Blade in his hand.

To his shock, Woods didn't use the Demonic Ruler to resist. Instead, Woods met the Flaming Blade'sslash with open arms.

"What... why?" Rocky was shocked to see that Woods didn't resist at all.

Woods slowly raised his hand and handed the Demonic Ruler to Rocky. He had a bittersweet smileon his face, as he gazed up to Rocky.

"At last, I can finally get rid of it. The power of the forbidden item is too terrifying. It's not somethingthat humans can resist. I'm afraid only you can withstand it,” Woods said as he laughed bitterly.Hearing that, Rocky was taken aback. He immediately understood that Woods had been ready todie, in order to get rid of the power of the forbidden item. Therefore, he took the Demonic Rulerfrom Woods without hesitation.

After that, Woods turned into ashes and disappeared in the air with the gently blowing wind.

"No! Woods!" Out of nowhere, an anguished voice suddenly cried out.

Rocky turned his head as soon as he heard, recognizing the voice as Alyssa's. She was staring downat him with wide, glassy eyes, as she clumsily flew down and got off her spiritual beast. Obviously,she had witnessed her brother's death.

Alyssa stopped in front of Rocky, looking lost and betrayed. She was still staring at the spot whereWoods had faded into nothing. But then, she seemed to gather herself. She turned to Rocky andasked in a hoarse voice that was filled with anguish, betrayal, and anger, "Why?! Why did you kill mybrother?"

Rocky knew that Alyssa must have misunderstood what she had seen. She didn't know that herbrother had fallen under the control of the forbidden item, but he didn't bother to explain. It wouldbe useless. And it would not lessen the pain she was in. Besides, he had done the right thing.

"Why don't you answer me?" The heartbroken Alyssa grew angrier when Rocky didn't utter a singleword. At that moment, she could accept any reason that Rocky told her, but Rocky kept silent, whichmade her confirm that he had really killed her brother in cold blood. She couldn't accept the factthat Rocky had killed her brother, who was her only family in the world!
