Rebirth of the Prime Dragon Master -
Chapter 722 We Are Brothers
"Alston, if I kill Woods, it will provoke a huge war between the Timber Deity Empire and the HolyDragon Empire. You are the eldest prince of the Holy Dragon Empire. Don't you care about thesafety of the people in your empire?" Rocky asked. Alston would endanger the entire Holy DragonEmpire just so he could kill him. This was truly insane.
"Yes, you're right. Only in this way can I even the score with you!" Alston laughed. He failed to useMont City to crush Rocky; instead he had made him more famous. The battle at Mont City broughtout the best in Rocky and his army. Alston himself, however, had ruined the advantage the CrimsonDragon Army had built and was thoroughly discredited.
Because of this, Alston needed a big war to prove his ability. He would not hold back on anyopportunity to stir up a conflict between the Timber Deity Empire and the Holy Dragon Empire."You're out of your mind! Alston, this idea is insane,” Rocky shouted. It was only now that he sawthrough Alston's motives. Apart from trying to get even with him, Alston also had a foolish plan thatcould backfire if he was not careful. Just to save face, he would stir up a war between the TimberDeity Empire and the Holy Dragon Empire.
"I never thought the eldest prince of the Holy Dragon Empire would be so despicable andshameless!" Woods mocked Alston. A bitter smile swept across his face.
"Your Timber Deity Empire started this war. You are the one who should be ashamed," Alstonsneered, staring at Woods.
"The reason I said you're despicable is not because you want to start a war between the twoempires, but because you will go to great lengths just to exact revenge on Rocky. You want to starta war so you can vindicate yourself from all the embarrassment. I'm sure it was you who leaked theinformation of the Crimson Dragon Army to us. It never entered my mind that the eldest prince ofthe Holy Dragon Empire would betray his own country just to settle the score with a man. I truly feelsorry for the Holy Dragon Empire!" Woods glared at Alston with hate.
"Shut up!” Alston said furiously.
"You have the boldness to start a war, but you don't have the courage to let the others know? Asthe eldest prince of the Holy Dragon Empire, you do not support a talent like Rocky, and you evenwant to kill him. No wonder the Holy Dragon Empire is no match for the Timber Deity Empire,”Woods continued. His face showed no emotion. He was not afraid of Alston at all.
"Humph! The Holy Dragon Empire doesn't give a damn about your Timber Deity Empire. You willsoon witness the power of our Holy Dragon Empire,” Alston said in a proud voice.
"If you become the emperor of the Holy Dragon Empire, eventually the empire will be destroyed.Thanks to you!" In Rocky's eyes, Alston was like a lunatic.
"Ha-ha! Brother, are you really going to fight me on this? A loser like you has no place on thethrone. You don't even have the right to argue with me. Don't even think about it!" Alston laugheduncontrollably.
"Brother?" The word stunned Woods. He looked at Rocky, looking for an answer. He had no ideaRocky and Alston were brothers.
"Yes, I am also a prince of the Holy Dragon Empire,” Rocky said in a calm voice. There was nothingmore to hide at this point.
"You are also a prince of the Holy Dragon Empire? Now I understand. No wonder he's doingeverything to kill you. Without a doubt, you are a great threat to him. With your proven skills andleadership, you are more suitable to become the next emperor of the Holy Dragon Empire. You havea big heart while he is ruthless and evil. Harming your own brother to get what you want is notsomething a decent human can do. From where I stand, there is nothing he would not do to get thethrone!" Everything became clear. As a prince himself, Woods lived through the perils of being theheir to the throne.
"Woods, you talk too much. Don't forget that he will kill you for me. Are you sure you pity him?"Alston asked, angered by Woods' clear thinking and sympathy towards Rocky.
"I would rather die in his hands than in yours. You are nothing but a lunatic,” Woods said calmly,and then turned to look at Rocky.
Rocky kept his eyes on Sue. His feelings were messed up. Right now, there was a chance for him toescape. But it meant sacrificing her life. He could never leave her behind.
"Rocky, if you don't do it, I will do it. I will kill Sue!" Alston laughed as he tightened his grip on herthroat. A painful expression appeared on Sue's face.
Rocky glared at Alston, as hate filled his heart.
"Is that girl really so important to you?" Woods asked. He looked at Rocky and found the answer onhis face. It was red with anger and he could see through the pain in his eyes. Woods knew theanswer to his question.
Rocky remained quiet and motionless, but the look in his eyes explained everything.
"It looks like I am at death's door." Woods bowed his head and smiled. He did not expect things toturn out like this. He did not want to die this way.
"I'm sorry. I don't have a choice.” Rocky's voice faltered as he spoke. The light in his eyes dimmed."If this is my fate, then so be it. It's an honor to die in your hands.” Woods closed his eyes andremained calm. He was not afraid of death.
Rocky turned to look at Alston and asked, "If I kill him, will you release Sue?"
"That's right.” Alston nodded.
"But why should I believe you?" asked Rocky.
"All right, in the spirit of brotherhood, I will let her go so she can stand between us. The momentyou kill Woods, she can run towards you." Alston sounded kind and selfless. He then released Sueand threatened, "Stand between me and Rocky. Don't you dare do anything foolish if you don'twant your dear Mr. Bai to die."
Sue's face was deathly pale and her body trembled in fear. She was not afraid to die, but it terrifiedher that Rocky might die because of her. She walked towards Rocky slowly until she was more thanten steps away from him.
"That's enough!" Alston shouted and gestured for her to stop.
Sue stopped and fixed her eyes on Rocky.
Rocky could see Sue's body shaking, and he could read the fear in her eyes. He hated seeing her likethis and tried to assure her, "Sue, do not be afraid. I will let nothing happen to you."
"Mr. Bai, please don't do this. Just go! They will not let you go even if you kill Prince Woods!" Suetried to convince Rocky. She knew this was part of Alston's plan. He would kill Rocky, come whatmight.
"It doesn't matter. I will take you away.” Rocky understood the truth behind Sue's words and fear. Allthe same, he had to make sure she was safe.
He then turned to look at Woods.
"Just do it. We will meet again in the afterlife. I hope next time you will not refuse my kindness,"Woods said calmly. His words pierced through Rocky's heart. He was not afraid of death. His sadfate had been written in the stars, and there was nothing else he could do right now. His threebodyguards were useless, unable to protect themselves. He himself did not have the strength todefend himself. He just wanted to die swiftly and avoid the pain that came with death.
At this moment, Rocky finally realized the reason Woods wanted to take him back to the TimberDeity Empire. It was not just a gesture of appreciation, but also trust. But unfortunately now heneeded to make a choice and protect Sue from harm.
