Rebirth of the Prime Dragon Master
Chapter 819 Who Is He

Just then, Woods became delirious. He started muttering incomprehensible words.

Mary glanced at Juey with a sense of guilt.

"Juey, don't blame me. I'm sorry but I have to sacrifice you for the future of the Xiao Clan!" Maryunfolded her guilt as she left Juey beside Woods.

When Woods became conscious, his eyes flickered like burning flames.

Juey remained unconscious because of the frame-up from her father and sister. Suddenly, a ghost-like figure entered the room. It reached out its arm and attacked the vital point on Woods' chest toknock him out. It then picked up a quilt and covered Juey with it.

'I still can't believe Raef had the audacity to target the prince. I'm sure he’s heard of the princebefore, otherwise he wouldn't have been so daring. He even used his own daughter! And Maryactually agreed to it. She is indeed a cold hearted woman. If I knew this earlier, I shouldn't haverescued her from Conrad, * the figure thought. The figure was no one else but Rocky. He'd beenobserving Woods secretly when he attended the banquet. Since then, he had also watched Mary'severy move. He saw Mary send Woods to his room. Rocky figured Raef was behind it, although hedidn't expect that his actions would be so low. He intended to threaten Woods with this, just so theXiao Clan could gain reputation

Above all, Raef shouldn't have taken advantage of Juey. She was already half an apprentice ofRocky. She also looked like Sue, to whom Rocky felt indebted. Every time he looked at Juey, heremembered Sue, so he could not help but treat her like his sister as well. Rocky couldn't let Raefuse her to achieve his evil goal. Soon, he'd suffer the consequences of Rocky's rage.

"Woods, if you're so clever, how come you were fooled so easily? You were too gentle and modest.You gave Raef a chance to exploit your kindness. But this could be a disaster to the Xiao Clan if thetruth was exposed, ' Rocky whispered to himself. Then, he looked at the unconscious Woods andcontinued, “Perhaps I need to take you somewhere to sober up.’ Then he covered him with a quiltbefore leaving.

The peak of the mountain was quiet and cold in the deep of the night.

Woods was woken up by a gust of cold wind. He shivered and slowly opened his eyes. Hissurroundings were covered by darkness. He could trace out shadows of tall trees around him. Whenhe did not recognize where he was, he sat up immediately. To his surprise, he was on the top of atilted cliff surrounded by a dense forest. Only the moon above him gave him light.

At the end of the cliff, he saw a tall figure with his hands clasped behind his back.

"Hey," he called out, "who are you?" Woods stood up at once and looked at the man closely.

"You were unconscious for a while, Prince Woods. Don't you remember being drugged by the LovePowder?" the figure replied with a cold smile.

Suddenly, the memory flooded Woods" hazy mind. He suddenly remembered the discomfort he hadgone through before losing consciousness. It turned out that it was because of the Love Powder."How do I know you're not the one who poisoned me?" Woods seethed through his teeth. He wasalmost sure it was the man's fault. There was no other reason for him to bring him in the mountainsHe was curious to know who the man was. If he was able to carry him out of the Cao mansionsecretly, then he must have been powerful. What he couldn't figure out was how he was drugged bythe Love Powder to begin with. He didn't remember eating anything except the wine at thebanquet. The Cao Clan was careful. No one had the chance to put the Love Powder into his wine.Woods was confused.

"If I hadn't taken you here, you would be accused of indecent assault on women tomorrow," theman teased.

"So you saved me? But why did you do that? Do we know each other?” Woods asked, his eyes fixedon the man's back. Suddenly, he realized that the man was quite familiar. His manner and silhouettereminded him of someone. Even his voice sounded familiar.

"Maybe," the man replied.

Woods was itching to see the man's face. He had an idea in mind but it was too absurd.

He thought it was someone he knew from the past, but the man was dead so he quickly dismissedthe idea. However, he doubted that there was any other man in the world who carried the samemanner and vibe as the man he knew. All he wanted was to confirm who the man was.

"Stop. Don't come near me,” the man muttered as if he figured out what Woods was thinking.Woods froze. His brows furrowed and, with a confused look on his face, he asked, "Who the hell areyou?"

"Do you really want to know?" There was a small chuckle in the man's voice.

"Have we met before? You remind me of someone I know. But he's dead now and it's impossible forhim to come back to life." Woods shook his head dejectedly.

"Perhaps God is just making fun of people. Nothing is impossible, after all,” the figure mocked."Actually, I wanted to spark some memories with you. But I have to deal with something first. If youwant to know who I am, return to the Cao mansion. You'll have to do it alone so you better waituntil dawn. This mountain is crawling with beasts. It's dangerous for you to go out now." After that,the figure disappeared silently like a ghost.

Woods felt even more confused. As he stood alone in the mountain, he wanted to know the man'sidentity, so he had decided to start his journey to the Cao mansion. His solitude made him thinkthat maybe it was all just an illusion. Perhaps his mind was playing tricks on him, or that the personwas just making an amusement out of him. Either way, he had to return to the Cao mansion.
