Rebirth of the Prime Dragon Master
Chapter 1689 Stories

Gilbert, who flew into a colossal rage earlier, was now at a loss for words upon realizing Gloria's trueidentity. He didn't expect the Godly Genius of the Genie Fief to hinder their alliance with the FlowerFief in such an unpredictable manner!

"Leader Gilbert, I question the validity of this engagement covenant! It's ridiculous!" Elder Leticiacomplained furiously. She could tell that Gloria came to intentionally hinder their alliance.

"Well..." Gilbert found himself stuck in a dilemma. Although he didn't want to acknowledge theengagement covenant Gloria clutched in her hand, their signatures and fingerprints on it wereundeniable. But if he did confirm it, he would gravely disappoint the Flower Fief.

"Give me that engagement covenant!" Valeria furiously commanded. She was so enraged at Gloriatrying to ruin her engagement that she suddenly lunged at her to reclaim the covenant.

However, Gloria quickly braced herself and swiftly tucked the covenant into her sleeve as she hidbehind Gilbert and exclaimed, "Leader of the Ghost Fief, I know you and my father have known eachother for a long time. Although we've never met, would you have the heart to allow the daughter ofyour old friend to be hurt by others?"

She looked at him with a delicate charm that allured the hearts of many of the men present.

"Come out and face me!" Valeria grew even more infuriated when Gloria hid behind Gilbert.

Gilbert knew he was in deep trouble, but Gloria was right. He and the leader of the Genie Fief,Adrian, shared a bond. However, both of them had gone their separate ways and didn't interfere ineach other's business for quite some time. Gilbert knew that Gloria had gone too far. But if she washurt in his territory, it would inevitably cause disputes between the two fiefs.

Gilbert thought about it for a moment before he waved his hand at Valeria and said, "Godly Geniusof the Flower Fief, please calm down. I will deal with the engagement covenant. Since you havesigned the engagement covenant, you are naturally Odin’s legitimate fiancee. Everyone present wasa witness to this. No need to worry!"

"But what about her?" Valeria questioned as she shot Gloria a venomous glare.

"Gloria is... also Odin’s fiancee now as well since she has signed the engagement covenant, too,"Gilbert revealed. It was a fact that the covenant had been signed by three people. He said thosewords as well to calm Gloria down.

"What?! This is unacceptable! If that's the case, I will call off the engagement!" Valeria firmly andfuriously declared

"She's right. We, the Flower Fief, won't allow such ridiculousness to happen!" Elder Leticia chimed in."Please don't worry, Elder Leticia and Valeria. Let me have a thorough talk with Gloria to sort this allout. I'll persuade her to give up and hand over the engagement covenant,” Gilbert informed them.He needed to stabilize the situation first before talking with Gloria alone.

"But..." Valeria still wanted to add something, but Elder Leticia realized that if they continued toargue in the presence of so many people, they would turn themselves into a laughingstock. So sheinterrupted Valeria and said, "Godly Genius, let's go. I trust that Leader Gilbert will provide us with areasonable explanation for all of this later.”

The more experienced Elder Leticia maintained her composure. Even if they came to blows, it wouldall be useless.

As for the protagonist of this farce, Rocky stood aside and watched in silence. He knew that Gloriawould manage to impede the engagement ceremony. But he never expected that she would go sofar as to take away the engagement covenant and sign her name on it to turn it into anengagement between him, her, and Valeria. This was no different than her sacrificing herself into aroaring pit of flames.

Nevertheless, he was impressed by Gloria's courage and boldness.

While Rocky was thinking, Valeria had already left with Elder Leticia

Gilbert turned around and glanced at Gloria. He shook his head and sighed before he said, "Go andget some rest too, Godly Genius Gloria. Let's talk about this later.”

"Okay!" Gloria answered enthusiastically with a smile and eyes beaming with pleasure. Judging fromGilbert's attitude, she knew she had little to worry about. He needed to show her and her fatherrespect.

Gilbert nodded and ordered his men to escort Gloria and Purple to the guest hall to rest.

He then looked around the square, cupped his hands, and announced, "I apologize for the incidentjust now. Today's engagement ceremony is over. Thank you all for attending!" Gilbert then arrangedseveral elders and a few senior followers to see the guests out. He turned to Rocky and said, "Followme."

Rocky nodded and accompanied him. Not long after, they arrived at the conference hall.

Once Gilbert was seated, he immediately asked Rocky, "Odin, how did you and Gloria get to knoweach other?"

"We just met a while ago,” Rocky admitted.

"So you never knew her true identity. Then why did you take her to the square and say that she wasyour younger sister?” Gilbert asked suspiciously.

"Here's the thing. Before the engagement ceremony, I was cultivating in a lake not too far from theGhost Palace. I was about to end my cultivation when I saw them sneaking into your mansion. Ithought they were up to no good so, to protect myself and hide my identity, I showed them a whitefeather in surrender. Then, I took them to the square as they requested. I thought they wouldn'thave the audacity to do anything bold in front of everyone. I neither expected them to try andhinder the engagement ceremony nor expected that the Godly Genius of the Genie Fief would signthe engagement covenant,” Rocky revealed to him.

"Oh, I see. You did the right thing. It's just that Gloria is too reckless.” Gilbert thought that Rocky'sexplanation was reasonable enough. After all, if Rocky revealed his identity earlier he might havebeen taken away by Gloria. He did the right thing. However, Gloria's behavior was out of line. Gilbertdidn't even know how to deal with the mess at the moment.

"What are you going to do, sir?" Rocky asked.

"Well, what else can we do? All that's left is to persuade her to hand over the engagement covenant.You will need to sign a new one with Valeria as well." The entire situation gave Gilbert a headache.He wouldn't allow Gloria to get her way and ruin the alliance that would unite their two fiefs.

"I'm afraid she won't hand over the engagement covenant so easily!" Rocky expressed with a grin."I'll deal with it myself. Don't worry about it. You need to rest well and prepare. In three days, youwill go to the Nether Fire Land with Valeria," Gilbert reminded him.
