Rebirth of the Prime Dragon Master -
Chapter 91 Go Out With Mia (Part One)
Shirley stood hesitantly in front of the royal marriage contract. She actually did not want to marry,not to mention that she despised the man she was going to marry. But it was a political marriagewhich was vital to secure the position of the Ximen Clan. The fate of the whole Clan was now tightlyconnected to her marriage. If she refused to sign the royal marriage contract, it would be equivalentto defying the imperial order. Shirley understood the situation and felt very disturbed. She was stuckin a dilemma.
"Shirley..." Bryant who stood beside Shirley could tell that his granddaughter was hesitating so hereminded her immediately. As much as he did not want to sacrifice his granddaughter's marriage forpolitical purposes, he had no other choice but to accept this royal marriage contract to marryShirley to Rocky because it would be the only way Shirley could ever succeed in leading the XimenClan. Otherwise, without the support from the royal family, it would be very difficult for Shirley to dothat. They did not seem to have any other choice. All in all, it was a win-win marriage. On one hand,to the royal family, this contract could serve as a way to keep their eyes on the Ximen Clan. On theother, Bryant wanted to clear the way for his granddaughter to succeed the Ximen Clan through thesupport of the royal family. Both parties would get what they need out of this contract. Without adoubt, it was beneficial to both parties.
"Don’t worry. I know what I have to do.” Shirley knew her grandfather was urging her to finish thesignature. She pouted then signed her name on the royal marriage contract with her beautifulpenmanship.
The two royal marriage contracts were switched between Rocky and Shirley. Their signatures werethen requested on each contract one final time. Now, the two copies of the contracts with thesignatures of both parties were then presented to the emperor.
The emperor reviewed for a few seconds then gave out an order to bring the imperial seal of theHoly Dragon Empire. Both copies of the royal marriage contracts were stamped with the imperialseal which signaled the finalization of the engagement. Afterwards, the contract would also bemanifested publicly for the good news to be shared nationwide. No matter which party everdecided to break the engagement, the party in question would be a standing joke to the entire HolyDragon Empire.
"If there isn't anything else, I would like to have your permission to withdraw." Even if Rocky signedhis name on the contract, he was in an awfully bad mood. He knew that his duty had been fulfilled.There shouldn't be anything else that required his participation so he bowed discreetly to HisMajesty and left.
“Basil, I know it's hard for you but you have to stay strong. Don't ever try to give up at any point.’Lena thought as she saw Rocky left the Hall in a bad mood the moment he finished the signature.Her delicate hands clenched in worry.
"He doesn't even have his manners,” Alston sneered as he watched Rocky walked out of the Hall.But now that Rocky and Shirley had signed the marriage contract, it also meant that they were nowallies. The uneasiness he felt about their alliance intensified
On the other hand, Shirley gazed spitefully at the back of Rocky who was now walking out of theHall. She did not like him at all. She despised him so much that she even wished to see his deadbody lying inside a coffin the next time they met.
Out of the desire to let off his bad mood, Rocky began to run crazily after he got out of the GrandHoly Hall. Propelled by his Earthly Stage power, he could run at lightning speed. Only a fewmoments later, he was completely out of their sight.
He immersed in his mood of self-pity and ran around aimlessly like a wild beast. As he raced ahead,the sceneries on his two sides kept rushing backwards. He ran so fast that he created a strong windwhich blew his robe into a swollen balloon. He wanted so hard to replace his lost self in the whiz ofwind...
After Rocky gave his all to get rid of his sorrow in that crazy run, he stopped as he sweated all over.He found himself in front of the gate of the dragon field.
"How did I end up being here?" Rocky raised his eyebrows in confusion. He chose to walk insidesince he was already there. He immediately caught sight of the young men drilling at the dragonfield. Just a few days ago, like these young men, he was among the many newly promoted royalspirit manipulators who trained in this very space. But now, he had reached a cultivation base at theEarthly Stage as the Prince Basil. The qualitative gap had already been made. He had greatlyexceeded the young men he used to train with.
As soon as Rocky was spotted by the young men in the drilling field, they began to gossip abouthim. Mia who was supervising the drill at the moment wondered who was there to grab herspotlight. So she looked towards the same direction as the young men did.
"What is he doing in here?" Mia was surprised to see that the guy was Rocky because she was therewhen the emperor ordered the marriage for Rocky and Shirley. She reckoned that as a soon-to-beson-in-law of the Ximen Clan, he must be busy preparing plenty of things and should not have thetime to wander around.
"Resume what you are doing..." Mia scolded the young men before she approached Rocky.
Having seen Mia walking straight towards him, Rocky pursed his mouth and smiled to himself."What are you doing in here, Your Royal Highness..." Mia intentionally emphasized the “RoyalHighness' in order to tease him for his ascendance to the royal family.
"Nothing in particular. I was just too bored to go elsewhere. Am I no longer allowed in here?" Rockycould not help but smile at Mia.
"How do you still have the time to feel bored? I know that you are going to be the son-in-law of theXimen Clan. You should be as busy as a bee," Mia discerned there was something odd in how Rockylooked so she asked in confusion.
