Rebirth of the Prime Dragon Master
Chapter 1825 Overwhelming Murderous Will

The moment Rocky stepped into the forest, he sensed that a murderous will oozed out from thefigure who was following him. But of course, he still remained calm because he was leading theperson here on purpose.

Realizing that they were now in a remote place, the person bearing the killing intent suddenlyrushed towards Rocky. Soon enough, Rocky felt a shining sharp claw around his neck.

"Have you really thought this through, Quentin? I am about to attend a wedding ceremony as thebridegroom. If anything suddenly happens to me, I'm afraid you won't be able to escape this place,”Rocky warned. Even before he entered the forest, he already knew that it was Quentin who wasfollowing him.

"I'm not stupid. I'm not here to kill you. Just give me the formula of the healing pill and you're freeto go!" Quentin said in a rough and gloomy voice.

"Formula? What are you talking about?" Rocky did not want this to be easy for Quentin, so hepretended not to know about it.

"You can't fool me! I know that you made a special healing pill to save Valeria. Now, give theformula of that pill to me so that we can both walk out of here as soon as possible! I'm not playinggames here, Odin!" Quentin roared.

"Oh, so you want to heal yourself using my pills? I can create those pills to help you. But is this theway you're going to ask me for help? By attacking me?" Rocky sneered, deliberately provokingQuentin.

But after regaining his senses, Quentin finally took away the Spectral King Claw.

"How do you know that I have those healing pills?" Rocky asked, trying to confirm that Gloria didher job appropriately.

"Why do you care? That's not important!"

"Well, there's only one possible person who could have told you about it. It was Gloria, right? Shecame to me lately, but apparently, she just did that to steal the pills and give them to you,” Rockysaid with a serious expression. He did this on purpose so that Quentin would trust Gloria even more."Ha-ha! I see. Were you thinking that Gloria will really fall in love with someone like you? Quitdaydreaming!" Quentin snorted disdainfully, falling easily for Rocky's splendid act.

"Humph! I don't need her in the first place. I already have Valeria, so I can just dispose of heranytime,” Rocky retorted with a shrug.

"Don't act like you're such a big shot. Just cut the crap and give me the formula. I don't have muchtime to waste on you!" Quentin demanded sternly, growing impatient with their pointlessconversation.

"I can give you the formula, but it will just be pointless in your hands,” Rocky said while crossing hisarms on his chest.

"What the hell do you mean?"

"It means that I am the only one who can refine this complex kind of pill. If you really want torecover from your injuries, you have to ask for my help in refining them. So, if you ever plan to dosomething against me, then you are doomed to become disabled throughout your whole life."

"Are you threatening me, bastard?” Based on Rocky's tone, Quentin easily perceived that Rocky wasimplying something more.

"Threatening you? No, of course not. I don't have to do that. After all, at your current state, I can justwatch on the sidelines while the other Godly Geniuses take care of you. I don't even need to dealwith you myself," Rocky replied, subtly mocking him by stating the obvious.

"Then, what the hell do you want? Just say it direct to my face!" Although Quentin was unwilling toask for Rocky's help, at this point, he was the only one that could heal him.

"All right then, since you want me to be straightforward, listen carefully to what I'm about to say. AllI want is for you to persuade the leader of your Purgatory Fief to side with Princess Layla in thecoming selection of the next ruler of the Shura Race," Rocky said bluntly.

"What? That's impossible! The Purgatory Fief has already decided to support Prince Zain!" Quentininstantly refused, knowing that this matter was out of his hands.

"Well, I don't think that's my problem anymore. You asked me what I want as payment for yourrecovery, so you have to agree with my condition. I'm sure you understand your position. After all,without the Godly Genius, the Purgatory Fief will be out of the competition for good, and of course,you don't want that. Moreover, I'm a bit certain that the leader of your fief is yet to know that you'reseriously injured, right?" Rocky knew that Quentin was at his most desperate moment right now, sohe was confident that he could take advantage of it.

"Damn it! Why do I have to go through this?" Quentin's face twitched in rage that the veins on histemples became very visible.

"Don't get so angry. I'm sure that it won't be that difficult for you to convince your leader. After all,everyone knows that Princess Layla has a very good reputation since her mother has been a virtuousruler in the past. It will also be advantageous for your fief if she became the next ruler.” Rockyexpressed his opinion, pushing Quentin to agree with him.

"Hal It doesn't really matter to me who's going to be the next ruler. Everything will just be thesame.”

"Then, you have no reason not to agree with my terms. Put your well-being as your priority. There isnothing wrong with that.”

"Fine. I agree..." Since Quentin knew that he really had no other choice, he eventually agreed.

"Here is a bottle of the pills that I promised. Take it and you should feel better.” Rocky took out thebottle he had prepared in advance and handed it over.

"Will I fully recover after taking all of this?" Quentin asked as he examined the bottle.

"No, not yet. But if Princess Layla became the next ruler, then I guarantee that you can return toyour former state,” Rocky answered honestly.

"Why should I trust you? How can you assure me that you'll fulfill your promise?” It was just naturalfor Quentin to be skeptical. After all, they were still enemies. He could not help but worry that Rockywould stop helping him once Layla had already become the queen.

"You can doubt me all you want, but one thing is for sure. I am your only hope! So, you actuallyhave no choice but to trust me whether you like it or not,” Rocky said haughtily.

Obviously, Quentin was not satisfied with this answer, so he could not help but reveal a hint ofanger on his face. On the other hand, he realized that Rocky was right. He could not afford to doubthim because he was the only one that could help him recover.

After they settled with the agreement, Quentin immediately disappeared from where he stood.Then, a few moments after Quentin left, Gloria suddenly appeared behind Rocky.

"So, you asked me to give him the medicinal pill so that you can manipulate him into agreeing withwhat you want?" Gloria shook her head, only realizing the motive behind Rocky's order.

"Yeah, you did well. Thank you." Rocky turned to her and let out a huge smile.

"But why does the Ghost Fief want to support Princess Layla? In terms of strength, the bettercandidate that can contend with Prince Zain is Prince Enoch," Gloria asked with furrowed brows."Well, first, Leader Gilbert has already established a good relationship with Princess Layla. As for me,I also want to support her due to my own reasons. Don't worry. I won't force the Genie Fief tosupport Princess Layla, as long as you will not side with Prince Zain," Rocky assured Gloria. But ofcourse, if she could convince her father to side with Princess Layla, then it would even be better.

"I can't make the decision myself, but I will surely take this to my father once we meet again.” Gloriaknew that it might be difficult to convince her father since he was very close with Prince Enoch.However, she wanted to stand by Rocky in whatever way she could, because she had a premonitioneven during the Spiritual Emperor Contest that he would be the last man standing in the battle ofthe Godly Geniuses.

"So, what are you going to do now? Will you stay and watch the wedding?" Rocky asked with a lightsmile.

"Of course! I have already prepared some tricks that I could pull off during the event.”

"What? Seriously? Valeria would be furious if she found out that it was your doing.” Rocky suddenlypanicked a little, afraid of what Gloria might do during the ceremony.

"So? I am not afraid of her. You know what, I actually want to fight her. I didn't even have theopportunity to do that in the Spiritual Emperor Contest!"

"Are you not really thinking of the consequences of your actions? What if they caught you?" Rockyimmediately reprimanded her.

"Humph! You're boring. Of course, I am just kidding! I'm not that stupid to cause such trouble.Anyway, I'm actually heading back to the Genie Fief, so I will not be able to witness your wedding.My father just sent a message that Prince Zain started recruiting soldiers there. He wants me to goback and help him with it," Gloria said, rolling her eyes.

"Oh, I see. Before I forget, I'll also have to go to the human race after the wedding ceremony," Rockyinformed her, just in case she went to the Ghost Fief to replace him.

"The human race? Why? What are you going to do there?" Gloria asked out of curiosity.

"Why else? I am going there to do an undercover assignment.” Rocky made up an excuse on thespot. He could not let her know his plans right now.

"That sounds exciting! I'll also come with you." Gloria immediately showed interest, thinking thatthey could spend some time without anyone watching them.

"No. I want you to wait for me here. Besides, I need to you collect some relevant informationwhenever there is an opportunity.” Moreover, Rocky knew that he would not be able to do his tasksif Gloria would always pester him.

"Humph! You don't want me there so that no one will interfere when you fool around with othergirls!" Gloria's eyes widened in anger and jealousy.

"Oh, please! Is that how you really see me?" Rocky was actually at a loss. Gloria was acting more likehis wife than Valeria.

"What is in it for me if I listen to you?" Gloria immediately bargained. As a scheming woman, shewould not do something against her will if she would not gain something from it.

"Fine! I promise to make sure that you will enter the final battle of the Godly Geniuses. Is thatenough?” Rocky eventually offered.

"Really? You are not just saying that so that I will agree?" Gloria's eyes instantly lit up after she heardwhat Rocky was offering this time.

"Tell me. When did I ever break my promise?"

"All right! You have a deal. No take backs!" Gloria said enthusiastically. Holding on to Rocky'spromise, she hurriedly left with deep satisfaction written all over her face.
