Rebirth of the Prime Dragon Master
Chapter 88 Strong Momentum

"He really pissed me off. Tomorrow, I have to tell him that I won't marry Shirley. I'd like to see if hewill try and demote me again,” knowing he had been used, Rocky felt so angry towards theemperor. He was not the kind of person who was willing to be pushed around.

"No, you cannot do that. Didn't you just give me your word?" Lena said solemnly as she shook herhead.

"I am not the old Basil anymore. I won't allow anyone to just push me around,” Rocky answeredconfidently.

"You are not powerful enough to disobey His Majesty. If you do, there will be grave consequences.Everything that you possess will be taken away including the power of the Holy Dragon Bead. If thathappens, you will be left with nothing at all. No one will be able to protect you, not even me,” Lenasaid very seriously.

Rocky fell into silence because he could clearly tell that Lena was not kidding judging by the sternlook she had on her face.

"I know you are not the old Basil anymore and I know you don't want to be pushed around byothers. You have already proven to everyone that you are not a loser but that would not be enoughWith the power of the Holy Dragon Bead, you have to climb your way to a higher position. Onlythen will you have enough power to get rid of all your constraints," Lena said as she tightly heldRocky's hands.

"A higher position..." Rocky's face also grew solemn.

"Yes. There is no doubt that you are an impeccable talent after all these things. No other spiritmanipulator's gifts could compare with yours in the entire Wild Spirit Land in all ages, not tomention the dragon spiritual power that you acquired from the Holy Dragon Bead. With theseadvantages, as long as you continue to work hard, you will definitely become the strongest in theHoly Dragon Empire or even in the entire Wild Spirit Land. No one could ever stand a chanceagainst you. When the time comes, you will get everything you want. You can even be the nextemperor of the Holy Dragon Empire. But right now, you have to be patient and do whatever HisMajesty asks you to do. I want you to promise me that you will. Could you do that? Don't make meworry about you." Lena looked at Rocky so tenderly.

The way she looked at Rocky immediately melted his resolute attitude. He could not refuse herbecause he understood that Lena said all of that for his own good. He had no reason to say no toher because of her kindness, tenderness, and her reasons. He did not want to disappoint Lena."Alright, I promise you. When the day comes that I become the emperor, I won't let you be theWitch anymore,” Rocky said confidently.

"You should only say that once you become the emperor. Fool,” Lena said with a smile. She felthappy knowing that this promise that Rocky made to her could someday help her escape herdestiny. But she also felt that it was a pity knowing that the chances of it happening were quite low."We should return soon or Randi will get angry with us,” Lena said as she gazed at Rocky with relief.She then took the lantern from Rocky's hand and turned around.

Rocky sighed as he looked at Lena's back before he kept up with her. A few minutes later, theyarrived at the carriage. Seeing that they had returned, Lena's maids got on the driver's seat afterrespectfully bowing down to the two of them. Rocky and Lena then also climbed the carriage.

They left the busy streets and headed towards the Palace City. It was not until midnight did thecarriage finally arrive at Rocky's palace.

"Get some rest. Go to bed early. Tomorrow, His Majesty would meet with Bryant and Shirley and youare supposed to be there,” Lena said to Rocky as she alighted the carriage. Rocky nodded at Lenathrough the window and then turned around to enter his palace. The carriage then headed to Lena'spalace. Lena took out a lantern boat from her sleeve. It was the exact one where she wrote herwishes on. She did not put this lantern that held her wishes on the river because she knew that theymight never come true.

Rocky lay on his big bed and looked at the ceiling as he continually recalled Lena's words. He nowfelt that being a prince once again was not the best of things because he had to face morecomplicated situations from then on. And right now, the very first thing he had to deal with was thearranged marriage of him and Shirley. He could only accept it because he had no power to refuse.He trembled at the thought of the horrible scene that he had to live with that mean and fiercewoman.

The next day, when Rocky opened his eyes, he found that he fell asleep without even noticingbecause he had not gotten any sleep for a long time. Recently, all he did was cultivate till the sunrose every day. It might because he was a little upset and distracted that he was not able to focuson his cultivation.

"Your Royal Highness, His Majesty had requested for you to go and meet him at the Grand Holy Hallafter breakfast,” a maid came in and said.

"I understand,” Rocky nodded as he stood up. He yawned and stretched himself. Uriah who herested his head on for the entire night as if it was a pillow was still snoring loudly. At the sight of it,he muttered jealously, "Good for you. Not knowing anything but to eat and sleep without anyannoyances. You are living more like a prince than I am.” Two maids then were called to clean himup and dress him in fancy robes that showed his identity as a prince again. After breakfast, Rockygot into the carriage and headed for the Grand Holy Hall.

He took off at the gate and walked across the square towards the Grand Holy Hall. All of a sudden,he sensed that an amazingly strong momentum of spiritual power was surging towards him. Hesuddenly felt distress in his chest as the Dragon Spirit Mark in his hand twinkled as if it wasresonating with something unknown. He immediately looked up and saw two figures walkingtowards him from the other side of the square of the Grand Holy Hall. They were escorted by agroup of guards.

Rocky took a closer look on the two figures and found that they were a man and a woman. The manwas about forty to fifty years old, tall, and very strong. His momentum was very overwhelming thatpeople couldn't help but stare at him. What was more, he could tell that this man's spiritual powerwas stronger than Marcia's which meant he was at a higher grade than she was. And he was surethat the power he was sensing was coming from the man and not the woman.
