Rebirth of the Prime Dragon Master
Chapter 935 Birthday Banquet

Rocky immediately left the Cao Clan for the ancient temple in the capital's suburb. Not long after,he arrived at the ancient temple that had been turned into ruins because of the Moon Foxunleashing its eminent power there.

Flying to the ruins, Rocky immediately raised his palm. The Evil Flame shone brightly, creating asizeable hole in the center of the ruins. He then summoned a Dark Heaven Insect. After it dug a fewmeters deep into the ground, he found the spiritual cave where the spiritual power gathered andthen buried the crystal rudiment inside.

Once done, Rocky returned to the Cao Clan to continue his genetic research. The two larvae fromthe Dark Heaven Insect he'd been using for genetic experiments had begun its physiologicalchange. His first discovery was that the speed of their growth had obviously increased. In just a fewdays, they had had a growth spurt, and they behaved differently from other larvae. In other words,the genetic modification had worked.

However, Rocky could not predict what the end result would be.

Three days passed quickly and Rocky spent them in peace. Though, Alyssa had arrived on thesecond day to help him merge the seal and left. Strangely, she hadn't stayed to practice together. Ofcourse, that made him a little confused, but the less trouble the better. In any case, once theappointed time arrived, he would return to the Holy Dragon Empire.

However, without his practice sessions with Alyssa, bonding the evil spiritual power in the thirdgrade had slowed down immensely. Rocky was on the verge of breaking through to the SupernalStage.

The Supernal Stage was a very important stage for a spirit manipulator. Many were forced to stopthere because they couldn't overcome it and reach the Supernal Stage. Therefore, he'd need toprove he was better than that.

Night fell with stars scattered across the sky like diamonds.

At this moment, the entire Cao Clan was brightly lit and lively, with guests wandering around.Today was Lucilla's birthday, and the mansion had naturally been bustling with people since early inthe morning. Every clan in the Timber Deity Empire, including those famous clans, dignitaries, andsome royal members, had sent gifts.

As the banquet was held in the evening, all the prominent people in the capital came tocongratulate her in person. The chiefs of several big clans except the Qi Clan had also come inperson. In addition, many members of the royal family were also present to show their great respectfor the Cao Clan.

Such a scene would never have been possible before. Winning the Beast Master Contest anddefeating the Qi Clan had stabilized its position as the number one clan in this country. So it wasonly natural that every clan would fawn on them again. If they'd suffered another defeat by the QiClan, this scene would have been entirely different.

In the Magnificent Hall, Lucas was warmly greeting the major clans’ chiefs, as well as many prestigefigures and royal members of the Timber Deity Empire. Although these people seemed to put up agood front, it was obvious they were all scheming. Some wanted to curry favor with the Cao Clanand others wanted to exploit the clan's current power.

News that the emperor would choose a successor from the various princes was only announced tothe inner circle, but it had already spread in secret. Therefore, those clans standing in line began totake action, trying their best to pull the parties together and expand their power to help their owncamp.

The only clans still didn't express their support of a particular prince were the Qi Clan and the CaoClan. Naturally, such dominant clans with significant influence in the Timber Deity Empire wouldwait until the last minute to make their choice. But once they made their choice, the situation wouldvastly change. Therefore, clans that had already made their choice were lying in wait as theywatched the Qi Clan and the Cao Clan.

Since the Qi Clan had formed a secret alliance with Prince Geoffrey, the only clan with no definiteallegiance was the Cao Clan. Because of Rocky, the Cao Clan would most likely side with Woods inthe end.

There were already many rumors about Rocky and Woods. Not long ago, Woods had taken Rocky tothe beast arena, and later, there had been a conflict between them and Prince Algy at the LaneyPavilion. Needless to say, the other clans had started their own predictions.

Unfortunately, those clans couldn't afford to jump to a certain conclusion before the end. Meaningthat, as long as the Cao Clan hadn't publicly expressed their support for Woods, everything stillremained unknown.

"Master Lucas, where is Chief Lucilla?" Seeing that Lucilla hadn't shown up yet, the chief of theXuanyuan Clan asked Lucas with cupped hands.

"Yes, we haven't seen the chief of the Cao Clan in so long,” the chief of the Huang Clan added.

The rest of those present perked up.

"Chief Lucilla will soon be here," Lucas replied with an apologetic smile on his old face.

As soon as he finished speaking, there was a sudden noise outside. Then, a delicate figure in a reddress appeared. She slowly walked in, grabbing everyone's attention.

The crowd burst into an uproar.

It was Lucilla.

The woman had changed her simple and elegant dress she usually wore. She now wore a bright redrobe like a peony flower. It set off her curvy figure, showing her striking beautiful side. Her petiteface spattered with little makeup; purple eyes and red lips full of temptation. No one could lookaway.

With such a beautiful face, Lucilla immediately attracted the attention of the men enamored withher. They were all practically drooling in an entranced daze.

However, another stunning figure like a blooming lily followed closely behind Lucilla. Her delicatefeatures, bright eyes, and perfect teeth held a subtle note of arrogance but still could not hide theyoung girl's innocence. At first glance, she was like a fairy falling into the mortal world, pure yetseductive.

Glancing around the crowd, the figure snorted coldly as she walked straight towards Lucas. In theCao Clan, only Queenie dared to behave like this in front of so many important guests.

"I'm sorry that I didn't greet you all earlier!” Lucilla walked to the front of the Magnificent Hall andsaid politely. Then she sat down and began to accept the congratulations and salutes from everyonepresent.

"Both the Qi Clan's chief and young master are here.” Just as everyone scrambled to congratulateand present gifts to Lucilla, a shout suddenly came from outside.
