Rebirth of the Prime Dragon Master
Chapter 1723 Gloria's Plan

"Father, what is the matter? I did not do anything wrong,” Gloria said in a defensive tone.

"How dare you feign ignorance? Gilbert has sent someone to give me a message. He said that youmaliciously destroyed the engagement ceremony between the Godly Geniuses of the Ghost Fief andthe Flower Fief. You signed your name on the engagement covenant and even stole it! What wereyou thinking?! Damn it. It's my fault that I spoiled you too much.” Adrian knew that what hisdaughter did this time was something that could not be easily forgiven. In fact, if he did not doanything right away, it might cause an inevitable dispute between their fief and the other two fiefs"Why are you scolding me? I was just trying to secure the benefits of our fief through my ownmethods!" Gloria retorted as she pursed her lips.

"Is that what you think? But I think you just brought trouble instead! Fortunately, you were able toescape. Otherwise, I really don't know what I would have said to Gilbert to let him release you,"Adrian answered coldly.

"About that... I did not escape by myself," Gloria mumbled as she let out a sly smile.

"What do you mean? How did you get out of their territory?" Adrian asked hesitantly as he slightlynarrowed his eyes.

"Odin helped me."

"Odin? The Godly Genius of the Ghost Fief? Why would he do that? Didn't you steal his engagementcovenant? That doesn't make any sense." Of course, Adrian was confused. He didn't know Rocky'smotive, so he didn't understand why the Godly Genius of the Ghost Fief would help his daughterescape.

"Humph! Didn't you say that I brought trouble this time? Then, no matter what I say, I'm sure thatyou will just blame me anyway. What's the point of telling you everything?" Gloria said provokingly."Fine. Fine. I take it back. Are we cool now? Can you continue what you're saying earlier? Tell mewhat exactly happened.” As Adrian sighed, his tone eventually softened.

"Well, I actually can't explain everything in detail right now. But to put it simply, Odin doesn't wantto be married to Valeria. At the same time, Valeria feels the same way. So, in other words, the two ofthem just get engaged to strengthen the alliance of their fiefs,” Gloria summarized.

"But that's understandable. Most of the time, that is what happens. So, I still don't understand whyhe deliberately helped you," Adrian said with furrowed brows.

"It's because he wants to cooperate with me,” Gloria quickly replied.

"Cooperate with you? How can you be sure about that?"

"Well, I don't know his entire plan, but if there is one thing that I'm sure of, it's that he doesn't wantan enemy out of the Genie Fief. Hence, although informally, he and I are now allied,” Gloriareiterated.

"I see. That does sound good. Right now, the Ghost Fief and the Flower Fief are officially allied, soOdin can already mobilize the power of the two fiefs. With this secret alliance of yours, it means thatwe can also cooperate with them..." Adrian nodded repeatedly as he commented.

"Yes, exactly. So, do you think that I still made trouble for you and the fief?" Gloria said with a snort."But it doesn't erase the fact that you destroyed their engagement ceremony. Everyone has heardabout that! What do you think will be your image now?" Adrian retorted fairly.

"I need to make a sacrifice! If I did not make a fuss back then, then I wouldn't have known whatOdin really wanted! Because of that, I now have the chance to win him over,” Gloria argued as hereyes flashed with mischief.

"What do you mean? What are you planning to do?" Just from the look at her daughter's eyes,Adrian knew that she must have some cunning ideas.

"Father, I want you to go to the Ghost Fief and talk with Leader Gilbert. I want to get married toOdin," Gloria said without hesitation. It seemed that she was not satisfied with her secret alliancewith Rocky. After all, she could not hold anything concrete just from it. Hence, she thought that itwould be much better if she was officially married to him.

"What nonsense are you talking about? He and the Godly Genius of the Flower Fief are engaged!Do you think Gilbert will just let the two of you get married? That is such a disgraceful thing to do!"Adrian almost jumped up from his seat as he heard the ridiculous ploy of his daughter.

"Why are you so angry? Father, have you already forgotten? My name is also on the engagementcovenant. Thus, I am also officially Odin's fiancee! Who said that I can't marry him?” Gloria stronglyreasoned.

Hearing this, Adrian was almost rendered speechless. After all, what Gloria said was true. Althoughthe engagement was just originally for Rocky and Valeria, Gloria's name was definitely written on thecovenant. Therefore, no matter what others would say, Gloria was legible to marry Rocky.

"Father, just think about it. If I can be married to Odin before he and Valeria did, we can destroy thealliance between the Ghost Fief and the Flower Fief. Moreover, I will have a better chance of drawinghim over to our fief. This is the best option for the sake of our fief's interests,” Gloria saidconvincingly.

"Why him? Aren't you too obsessed with this guy? Can't you also consider the Godly Geniuses ofthe other fiefs?" Adrian asked out of curiosity.

"No. I think he is the one with the greatest value. If I can manipulate him, I'm sure that my chancesof winning, in the end, will increase dramatically,” Gloria declared with confidence.

"Are you sure? Is he really that powerful?” Adrian asked with hesitation in his voice. After all,according to the original information that he received among the Godly Geniuses, Rocky wassupposed to be the weakest of them all.

"It seems that you haven't heard the latest news yet. Back in the Nether Fire Land, it was actuallyOdin who has completed the task of subduing the Nether Dragon King," Gloria said with a straightface.

"Is that true?!" Adrian was shocked because he did not expect this to happen.

"However, after he subdued it, he sent the Nether Dragon King back. Although I am not sure whatwas going on in his mind, I can see that he is not the type of person that does anything just toacquire the benefits. His kindness is something that you cannot usually replace among the members ofthe Shura Race. But exactly because of this, I'm sure that I can easily take advantage of him," Gloriaanalyzed

"Fine. For now, let me think about it first. You may now leave to get some rest," Adrian finally said.He knew that what Gloria was plotting was such a huge matter. Hence, he needed more time toconsider everything carefully.

"Father, I will only give you a day to think about it. If you will not agree with what I want, then I willgo to the Ghost Fief by myself. I will do everything to make Odin marry me." At the back of Gloria'smind, she really wanted to fulfill her goal as soon as possible. After all, a long delay would alsomean that her plans would be disrupted. So, she urged her father to make a decision as soon aspossible. Then, after saying that, she eventually left.

"Gloria, that reckless girl..." Adrian was left speechless. He was worried that his daughter would dosomething insane again soon enough.

Meanwhile, Rocky, who didn't have the slightest idea of the storm that was about to come, waspreparing for the medical materials to be used to treat Valeria.

Early the next morning, he prepared the hot tub and poured the hot water and medicinal materialsinto it. Since there wasn't any partition inside the pharmacy, he set up a screen especially for Valeria.After all, he could not let a young woman be completely exposed

Not long after, Valeria arrived at the Ghost Palace and entered the pharmacy.

"Everything is ready. Just go inside the bathtub and prepare yourself. I'll check on you later after youare ready," Rocky said as he pointed at the screen just behind him.

As she glanced at Rocky, Valeria could not help but blush at the thought that this man wouldeventually see her naked body later. However, she quickly tried to calm herself, thinking that he onlyneeded to do this to heal her wounds.

Therefore, after taking a few deep breaths, she walked towards the back of the screen where shesaw the large bathtub with all kinds of medicinal materials.

Then, she began to undress her clothes. Although she was slightly trembling due to embarrassment,she was eventually able to take them all off. Afterward, she gradually stepped into the bathtub,tested the temperature of the water, and soaked her whole body in it.

Even after all that, her heart was still racing rapidly.

"How is it? Are you done?" Rocky asked flatly.

"Huh? Y-yes," Valeria stammered as her face got flustered
