Rebirth of the Prime Dragon Master -
Chapter 1675 Reach An Agreement
"I can see that you don't agree with each other. Well, for now, let's just wait and see. After all, westill have three months. It's not yet too late to decide once we see what the other Godly Geniuseswill do,” Gilbert said. He was very cautious.
"Okay then. If there is nothing else, I will take my leave now." As soon as he said that, Rocky turnedaround and tried to leave.
"Hold on. I have something else to tell you before you go," Gilbert said quickly as he stopped Rocky."What is it?" Rocky asked with slightly furrowed brows.
"After careful discussion with the elders, I have decided to let you get engaged to the Godly Geniusof the Flower Fief. With this, the two fiefs could enter into an alliance and strengthen each other'sbond," Gilbert answered straightforwardly.
"What? No way. Are you kidding me?" Rocky was actually at a loss for words. He did not know if itwas funny or shocking because it was not the first time that he had been put in such a situation. Hefound it ridiculous because most of the time, the only reason for this was to manipulate something."Do you take me for a joker?" Gilbert replied sternly.
"Well, can I refuse?” Rocky asked as he lightly shook his head.
"No, you can't. Besides, I am not asking for your permission. I'm just letting you know that it hasalready been decided. This matter is related to the fate of the Ghost Fief, so the elders and I cameup with a decision that we think would be advantageous for us. The alliance with the Flower Fiefwould benefit us, so you should not complain,” Gilbert retorted without a hint of hesitation.
"What is her deal? Is the Godly Genius of the Flower Fief so ugly that no one wanted to marry her?Or is she just eager to replace someone to marry as soon as possible?" Rocky asked many questions."No, you are wrong. It is said that she is as beautiful as a fairy. She is exceedingly beautiful that she'sout of her league,” Gilbert replied casually.
"Humph! I don't believe it. If she is so beautiful, why would the Flower Fief use her as a bargainingchip to make an alliance? It makes me think even more that she has an ugly face and a fat body."Rocky had already seen many things in his life. Hence, to get this good of a deal, he could notbelieve that Gilbert was telling the truth.
"Well, I don't really care if you believe me. You still have to get engaged to her and that is final,”Gilbert said firmly. Hearing this, Rocky was rendered speechless.
He then revealed a helpless expression, thinking that it was a bit unfair for him. However, he actuallyhoped that Gilbert was saying the truth. In case the Godly Genius of the Flower Fief was indeedstrikingly beautiful, then she might not like his ordinary looks when she met him, and she mightwant to call off the engagement.
"That is all. You can go back and cultivate in seclusion. The Godly Genius of the Flower Fief will visitour territory in a few days. I will call for you then so that you can meet her and nurture yourrelationship with her.”
Rocky just nodded his head because he did not really have anything left to say. Eventually, he leftthe meeting hall.
Upon returning to the Ghost Palace, Rocky immediately complained to Esteban about theengagement that he was being forced into. Hearing this, Esteban could not help but laugh hard."Are you laughing at my misery, old man?" Rocky said while pouting.
"Of course, I am laughing at you, stupid brat. Don't you know that it's a good thing for two GodlyGeniuses to get married? After all, the two of you can cultivate the dual cultivation method. Whenyou use that, cultivating the pillar of divine power will be twice as fast with just half the effort!”Esteban said excitedly.
"Really? The pillar of divine power can be cultivated by the dual cultivation?" Rocky asked as hiseyes narrowed.
"Yes! Its effect will be very good. Once upon a time, two Godly Geniuses also became married. Then,they used the dual cultivation technique to make rapid progress in their divine power. However,their respective fiefs turned against each other in the end. If that did not happen, those two wouldhave achieved greater heights,” Esteban recounted.
"Isn't this going to be the same thing? Even if two fiefs became allies, in the end, they would stillfight to the death. Am I right?" Rocky asked gloomily.
"Well, yes, that may be true. But before you get there, entering an alliance is far better than beoutnumbered by other fiefs!" Esteban elaborated.
"I can't argue to that. So that's it. It seems that I won't be able to escape from this engagement.”Rocky knew that since he held the status of being the Godly Genius, he had no right to refuse thisengagement.
"Hmm. It's not totally impossible for you to escape. All you have to do is regain your humanidentity. Then, no one will recognize you," Esteban said with a smirk on his face.
"Humph! I am a Godly Genius right now. Even if the members of the Shura Race can't replace me, can Iescape from those gods?" Rocky retorted as he rolled his eyes at Esteban.
"Ha-ha! You are right. I'm sorry.” Of course, Esteban just said that to add insult to Rocky's injury."You really want me to be forced into this marriage, don't you?" Rocky snapped with a deep sigh.
"I can't help but be amazed at your terrible fate. Back then, I just wanted to save your life, but Ididn't expect that you would be involved in this bigger trouble. If I had known this earlier, I mighthave not chosen to save you," Esteban said with a faint smile.
"I didn't want to live at that time. But I not only survived but also became a Godly Genius. It is fatethat makes people suffer,” Rocky answered as he let out a bitter smile.
"By the way, I heard that the gods had bestowed you a task to go to the Nether Fire Land to subduethe Nether Dragon King. Is that true?" Although Esteban didn't really go to the square, he was stillwell-informed.
"Yes, it is," Rocky responded flatly.
"That's good then. So, when you go there, pick some Nether Fire Flowers for me. They grow in thelair of the Nether Dragon King, so it will be very difficult to acquire them. In fact, I have onlyobtained them twice. But if it is you, you may have an easier time getting them," Esteban saidconvincingly.
"Humph! You make it sound like it is such a simple task. Besides, I did not say that I was going to theNether Fire Land," Rocky replied.
"So, you are not going?" Esteban asked at once.
"That place is very dangerous. I don't think I would want to get involved in it," Rocky said frankly."Hmm. Actually, I might agree with you if it happened to be a different task. But I think you shouldgo to the Nether Fire Land and do this one," Esteban urged as his expression suddenly becameserious.
"Why is that?" Rocky asked with furrowed brows.
"Why? Because you have the royal holy power in your body, and the Nether Fire Land was once asacred place of the royal family. However, due to the geographical change, the royal family had tomove to another place. But you should know that there are still many treasures in that place thateven the royal family was not able to take out. In fact, the royal family has been searching for thosetreasures all these years, but they barely found anything.” When Esteban saved Rocky, that was thenhe found out that the young man had the royal holy power in his body. He also guessed that Gilbertmust know about this. That was why he hoped that Rocky could have survived.
"What makes you think that I can replace them? Even the royal family has not found the treasures aftersearching for so long,” Rocky said as he shook his head.
"Well, are you giving up even before you try? Anyway, the most important thing is that the sacredplace of the royal family can only be opened by someone who possesses the royal holy power. So, ifyou want, you can try your luck. Besides, it may help you improve your strength,” Estebansuggested.
"Fine. Let's talk about that later.” At this moment, it seemed that Rocky was not enticed even at themention of the invaluable treasures.
Meanwhile, just as the Ghost Fief decided to wait and see, three Godly Geniuses from other fiefs,escorted by the guards formed by their own fiefs, went to the Nether Fire Land to carry out theirtasks.
At the same time, on the dusty road, which was a few hundred meters away from the border of theGhost Fief's territory, a gorgeous beast carriage, escorted by a group of people, was steadilyapproaching.
It seemed that the members of the group were all women from the Shura Race. Moreover, theywere all good-looking, and it could be easily said that every one of them was much more beautifulthan any ordinary woman from the Shura Race. Coupled by their dignified and elegant clothes, onecould tell that they were from an extraordinary fief. Even their sleeves were embroidered withcolorful feathers that looked like flowers.
Along the way, whenever the people saw the carriage, they would quickly take the initiative to makeway for it. After all, the team was from the well-known Flower Fief.
Moreover, the one sitting inside the beast carriage was Valeria, the Godly Genius of the Flower Fief,who was supposed to go to the Ghost Fief to pay Gilbert a visit.
Valeria's face was actually covered with a white veil, which only revealed her eyes and brows.However, just from her fair skin and delicate eyes, she seemed to be no different from an exquisitehuman woman.
