Rebirth of the Prime Dragon Master -
Chapter 773 Unwilling To Admit Defeat
When Queenie spoke, she had already taken the dagger away from Juey's face. She did not show it,but she did not really want to hurt Juey. She just wanted to frighten her and give the members ofthe Xiao Clan a little lesson. What she didn't expect was that there would be someone who wouldsuddenly step in her way. This caught her off guard and ruined her plan.
"I'm just a servant from the Magical Beast House," Rocky said calmly.
At this moment, every Xiao Clan member looked at Rocky with shock. No one expected that hewould say the origin of the tendon. Mary was taken aback as well. She let out a small gasp uponhearing Rocky's words. Rocky had surprisingly passed the disciples recruitment interview and evenembarrassed her in public. Ever since that happened, she held a grudge against him. Of course, shewanted to take her revenge. She wanted to replace an opportunity and teach Rocky a lesson. However,now that he was able to answer Queenie's question correctly and even saved Juey, she had mixedfeelings. However, it didn't change the fact that she hated Rocky.
Raef, on the other hand, had never seen Rocky before. He stared at him strangely. His eyeswandered Rocky's presence from head to toe. His brows were furrowed as if he was thinking ofsomething. There were two reasons for Raef's confusion. First, he wondered how Rocky had knownthat the tendon came from the Heavenly Wing Fish. Second, he felt as though Rocky wasn't aservant at all. Indeed, he claimed to be a servant, but he was very calm and relaxed among theirpresence. Raef then wondered about Rocky's background and what his purpose was for coming tothe Magical Beast House.
"A servant? How could a servant know about the Heavenly Wing Fish?" Queenie said in a tone whichclearly sounded doubtful. She obviously didn't believe that Rocky was just a servant and thought hewas lying.
Lucas’ shrewd and turbid eyes also started to examine Rocky. With his cultivation base, he couldnaturally perceive some hidden strength from Rocky, but he didn't say it out loud and expose it tothe public. He kept his calm, but he couldn't stop his eyes from flashing with interest as he stared atRocky.
"I've seen it on a book," replied Rocky indifferently.
"A book? So you didn't actually know it, but guessed it right. I knew it." Queenie was a littlesurprised, but soon she laughed with contempt.
"Actually, I also have something that came from a spirit-manipulated beast. Can you guess whichbeast it came from, Miss Queenie?" Rocky smiled cockily and looked at Queenie intently.
"You want to test me? Humph! You're getting ahead of yourself!" Queenie said with a look ofarrogance and disdain on her face. Rocky's confidence offended her and she couldn't take it. Sheand her master had traveled on the Wild Spirit Land for more than half a year and she had seencountless spirit-manipulated beasts, while Rocky was only a servant in the Magical Beast House.How could he win in the race? She was very confident this was a sure win for her.
"I'm relieved to hear your confidence, Miss Queenie. But if you won't be able to guess it right, youhave to leave this place right away. Also, you are not allowed to make trouble for Miss Jueyanymore. As for others, you can do whatever you want to them,” Rocky said in a serious tone. It wasclear from his eyes that he was determined.
After hearing that, everyone from the Xiao Clan realized that Rocky was trying to protect Juey. Theycould not help but assume that there might be an affair between the two of them.
"Well, I see. Do you like Juey? Is that why you want to stand up for her? Are you hoping this is astory where a hero such as yourself would save a beauty? But who do you think you are?Nevertheless I will give you the chance to prove yourself. But if I guess it correctly, your life is mine.”Queenie was and had always been a bully all her life. Because of this, no one dared cross her pathand act arrogant in front of her. So naturally when Rocky provoked her, she wanted to show himwho was boss.
"Rookie, please don't..." Juey also realized that Rocky wanted to protect her. But when she heardwhat Queenie's end of the deal was, she couldn't let Rocky get hurt because of her. She quicklyshook her head. She didn't want him to risk his life for her.
When the members of the Xiao Clan heard Queenie's words, they couldn't help but discuss in a lowvoice. They asked one another whether what they heard was accurate. Several were nodding toconfirm and they all turned to look at Rocky. They thought he must only be pretending to be soconfident and that he would immediately step back after hearing what Queenie said.
But Rocky just cast a glance at Juey and his eyes were still as cold as before. Then, to their surprise,he nodded at Queenie and said, "I hope you will keep your word.”
His agreement also shocked Queenie, but she wasn't going to let him trample her pride. "How dareyou say yes! Fine! Your life will be mine, and I won't let you die easily. I'll take you back and tortureyou to death!” Seeing that Rocky was indifferent to her threats, Queenie had a strange feeling. Butshe immediately gnashed her teeth and fiercely exposed her cruel nature, intimidating everyone butRocky.
The members of the Xiao Clan could not help but clamor, and the faces of Raef, Mary and Traviswere a little pale. They looked at one another in fear and humiliation because they did not have thecourage to save their own family, while an outsider was so calm and courageous to do so. Thismade them feel ashamed, and at the same time, they hated Rocky for being too nosy.
Rocky then took out a small strand of silver fur, placed it in front of Queenie and said, "You can takea guess now, Miss Queenie.”
Seeing the fur on Rocky's hand, Queenie became serious at once. She touched it with her hand, itfelt good, and then smelled it with her nose, but she didn't smell anything special. After thinking fora while, she seemed to be unable to tell which kind of spirit-manipulated beast it was from. To beexact, it was because she had many spirit-manipulated beasts in mind which had silver fur. Actually,she had already made several choices in her mind, but it was inevitable that she would hesitate,because she didn't want to lose out to Rocky.
In Queenie's opinion, Rocky was just an ordinary person, so she guessed that the fur must belong tosome waste spirit-manipulated beast. She then boldly said, "It must belong to the Lion-headedSilver Dog.”
"I'm sorry, but you are wrong." Rocky shook his head as he heard Queenie's response and gave hera smile.
"What? I must be right. You can't lie to me,” Queenie said confidently.
"If you don't believe me, then ask your master.” Rocky turned to look at Lucas. He noticed the subtlelook on Lucas’ face when he took out the silver fur, so he knew that Lucas must be able to tell whichspirit-manipulated beast the fur came from.
"Queenie, he's right. This is not the fur of the Lion-headed Silver Dog, but from a rare beast: theGhostly Ice Fox-wolf. This Ghostly Ice Fox-wolf was born from a spiritual beast and a war beast, andit has inherited the bloodlines of both the beasts and has a very high talent. Its fur is soft, tenaciousand would become thorns as long as it meets ice. Just like this!" Lucas said as he glanced atQueenie. At the same time, with a wave of his hand, an icy spiritual power brushed the silver fur onRocky's hand, which turned into an ice thorn in an instant.
Everyone watching let out a gasp. They weren't expecting Rocky to win. When Queenie saw whathappened, she couldn't help but open her mouth wide, showing her surprise. At the same time, sheglared at Rocky with some hatred, because she knew that since she guessed wrong, it meant thatshe lost out.
