Rebirth of the Prime Dragon Master
Chapter 1897 The Conflict Ensued

In the end, even though Adrian's army was ambushed, Enoch's army could not take total advantageof the situation. Since both sides suffered heavy losses, Enoch's army did not pursue when the armyof the three fiefs retreated.

Of course, when the leaders of the Primitive Fief and Purgatory Fief heard the grueling outcome ofthe battle, they could not help but get frustrated. It was as if they just sent their men to their death.Moreover, now that Enoch was in an open rebellion, the other fiefs, who were not under him, wereall possible targets. Hence, their focus right now was to preserve their fighting force. Therefore,losing their men in this fight was the last thing that they wanted to happen.

Previously, the fiefs under Zain were already unhappy because several of their men also died whenthey accompanied the prince in the Ghostly Demon Land. Now, they suffered another fatal blow.Thus, they were obviously resentful toward the prince.

On the other hand, this was exactly what Rocky was aiming for. He successfully pulled the triggerthat would worsen the conflict between Zain and the other two fiefs under him.

At this moment, the leaders of the Primitive Fief and Purgatory Fief came to Zain's palace to meetwith the prince. As they sat in their seats, they could not hide their livid faces and their hatefulstares.

"Your Royal Highness, we immediately obeyed you when you told us to assist the Genie Fief thistime. But after losing so many of our men again, what should we do now?" The leader of thePurgatory Fief was the first to express his concerns.

"Do you have a plan to make up for this? In order to attack the human race, you already summoneda lot of our troops. Then, we also suffered a heavy loss when all those powerful warriors perished inthe Ghostly Demon Land. Now, this? If Prince Enoch’s army attacks our fief, we will be doomed!” theleader of the Primitive Fief also chimed in.

"So, what are saying? Are you blaming me? Are you saying that I am incompetent?” Zain's eyesinstantly turned cold. He knew that it was his orders, but how could he expect that Enoch’'s armywould ambush the troops that Adrian led? Of course, he thought that it wasn't his fault.

"No, Your Royal Highness, I don't dare! But the situation is getting out of hand. The king has not yetappointed his successor, and you are still recovering from your injuries. We are just concerned thatthe king might choose Princess Layla in the end.” The leader of the Purgatory Fief suddenly hintedat his doubts about Zain's current condition.

"Stop beating around the bush! Are you thinking that I am too weak to even compete for the throneright now?" Zain retorted, fuming in anger.

"Your Royal Highness, please calm down. We are the leaders of our fiefs. Of course, we will doeverything for the benefit of our people. We supported you because we thought that you are theobvious choice to inherit the throne. But now, it seems that things will not go as we onceexpected...” The leader of the Primitive Fief had no choice but to be honest.

"Fine. You don't want to support me anymore? I get it. Just remember that you will regret thissooner or later!" Zain said threateningly.

"Your Royal Highness, we are going to excuse ourselves now. Please take care of yourself." Afterhearing those arrogant words from Zain, the two leaders were more than glad to withdraw theirsupport.

Soon after, they went away and left the palace.

As soon as the two leaders were gone, Adrian suddenly arrived.

"Your Royal Highness, please accept my apologies! All of this happened because I was too careless!"Adrian immediately bowed and pleaded.

"Stand up. This is not your fault. Enoch was clever enough to set a trap, and we were not able to seethrough his plan. That is all. I am just in disbelief that the leaders of the Primitive Fief and PurgatoryFief would choose to turn their backs on me while I am in this difficult situation,” Zain said in agloomy tone. From the beginning, he did not plan to blame Adrian for this blunder. Now that helost the support of the two fiefs, only the Genie Fief remained on his side. If he pushed Adrian away,he would really have no one by his side.

"You are right, Your Royal Highness. Those guys have gone too far! They are only thinking aboutthemselves!" Adrian yelled, pretending to be very affected

"Leader Adrian, let me get straight to the point. Are you still willing to support me despite thecurrent situation?" Zain asked with all seriousness.

"Of course, I willl I am not the kind of person who will just abandon the one I support just becausethings have not gone well. Now that we are in a disadvantageous position, I will make sure todevote myself even more!" Adrian declared with utmost sincerity.

"Well, I am glad to hear that. With that, I will transfer all of my remaining forces in the territory ofthe human race under your direct control. Train them, and do whatever you think is necessary. I trustyou to help me make a comeback!" Zain immediately trusted Adrian and gave him full control of hisarmy.

"You can trust me on that,” Adrian replied, cupping his hands. At the same time, Adrian's heart wasfilled with extreme surprise. After all, everything just went as Rocky had predicted.

After Adrian left the Royal Land, he immediately returned to the Genie Fief and sent a message toRocky.

The moment Rocky got the news from Adrian, he went to the Genie Fief as fast as he could.

"Odin! You are so brilliant and prophetic. As you have expected, Prince Zain has given me leadershipover his military affairs. I can do whatever I want with his army now!" Adrian exclaimed, not able tohide his excitement.

"Even in his current state, Prince Zain is still ambitious. Of course, he won't give up the fight, but heneeds someone that he can fully trust,” Rocky responded, knowing what kind of man Zain was. Nowthat his plan prevailed, they could instantly pull Zain's army out of the territory of the human race.When that happened, that danger that the human race was facing would be completely lifted.Everything was progressing smoothly, and Zain didn't have any idea that this was all arranged byRocky from the background.

"Now, when Prince Zain's remaining forces come back, stick to my plan and station them at theborder of Prince Enoch’s territory," Rocky explained.

"Then, what are we going to do with Prince Zain? I'm afraid that once he gets better, he willimmediately take back the leadership of his army from me," Adrian asked, having some scruples.

"It only appears that Prince Zain's condition is getting better, but in fact, he is getting worse. Even ifhe wants to do something later, it will be impossible for him to make a move,” Rocky sneered.

"Oh, I see." Adrian just nodded, knowing that he could only trust Rocky at this point.

Then, just as the two were still talking, a delicate figure suddenly walked inside the hall.

"Odin? It's really you!" The beautiful figure was so surprised to see that Rocky was there.

It was none other than Gloria. From what Rocky could see, she had become even more mature andcharming since the last time they met.

"It seems that you have finished your cultivation. Last time I came here, your father said that youwere still cultivating in seclusion,” Rocky greeted with a smile.

"Really? Well, yes, 1 just finished a while ago," Gloria replied and just nodded gently. It was as if shewas indeed an elegant lady from a very prominent family.

"Why don't you take your time and talk more? After all, I still have some things to do," Adrian saidand left eventually. He was sensitive enough to let her daughter have some time with Rocky since ithad been quite a while when they last met.

As soon as Gloria saw that her father was gone, she immediately showed her true colors and clungto Rocky. "Wow! We haven't seen each other in like forever. Did you miss me?"

"Hmm, not really,” Rocky replied, deliberately teasing her.

"Come on! Can't you at least say some sweet words to me?" Gloria pouted while putting her handson her waist. "Anyway, my father told me that even Prince Zain has fallen into your trap. You reallyare something.”

"Well, there is nothing special about Prince Zain. He may be strong, but he is simple-minded,” Rockysaid with a shrug, not really thinking highly of the prince.

"If that is the case, then I guess the battle of the Godly Geniuses is now meaningless. I mean, I don'tthink anyone can go against you.” Gloria could not help but let out a sigh. Ever since sheparticipated in the Spiritual Emperor Contest, she had come to realize the huge gap between herand Rocky.

"I told you, I am not interested in the battle. But of course, I will still keep my promise.”

"You know what, I also lost interest in the battle of the Godly Geniuses. I am just interested inknowing you more. I want to know why you can control everything you want as if you can predictevery single thing," Gloria uttered, staring straight into Rocky's eyes."

"I don't know. Maybe it is just second nature to me to see through things,” Rocky said indifferently.Of course, he had experienced countless things that were beyond Gloria's imaginations. That helpedhim become who he was today.

"Are you aware of how you speak right now? I feel like you have somehow changed...” In the past,Rocky tended to be very low-key. He always downplayed his abilities and acted like he was justsomeone weak. But now, he did not need to hide anything. Hence, he had been exuding adomineering aura that could impact anyone he met.

"Really? Are you not just imagining that?" Rocky smiled lightly, not wanting to dwell on that topic."Well, forget it. Now that you are here, why don't you take me away this time?" Gloria proposed outof nowhere.
