CHAPTER 488 WHAT IS YOUR PURPOSE
At the next moment, Marin and Sabina were following Lance, who just reached outside Rocky's tent.
The two guards on duty outside the tent were trembled at the sight of Lance's spectral look. They
bowed to him in a hurry, "Commander in Chief!"
"You may leave now." Lance waved his hand.
The two guards left in a hurry, as if they received a decree after years of waiting.
Lance then walked straight into the tent, in a rage as if he was going to kill his enemy in the battlefield.
However, both Marin and Sabina knew it wasn't the best thing to do. They looked at each other for a
while, and then hastened into the tent.
At the same time, Rocky who was cultivating in the tent suddenly sensed the strong aura of Lance. As
he opened his eyes and stood up, he saw Lance walking into the tent and staring at him. As a result,
his pressure surged up.
If it was an ordinary spirit manipulator, his whole body would have trembled owing to his weakness.
However, this was Rocky, who looked calm and fearless as always. He just stared back straight into
Lance's eyes.
Lance walked up to Rocky and shouted with his husky voice, "Rocky, this is your chance. Explain to me
why you did that to Isis. If you are to hide anything from me, then I will kill you with no mercy."
On hearing the tone in which Lance spoke, Marin and Sabina were quite shocked.
"Haven't I told you? Everything would be clearer as the Deputy Commander in Chief wakes up. And
even if I were to explain now, the Commander in Chief is not in a position to understand my
explanation, as he is too angry," Rocky responded calmly.
"Although Isis has been detoxified, it will take at least two to three days for her to wake up. But, I don't
want to wait anymore." Lance was always cautious. But he found it hard to tolerate that Rocky, who he
had trusted the most, had indeed done such a vile thing to his daughter. So now, he was curious to
know what had happened between his daughter and Rocky. He wanted to know how his daughter was
trapped in Mount Clouds and why Rocky was with her. He also wanted to know why Rocky had defied
his daughter.
The very thought of it sent a chill down through Lance's spine. If Rocky had really intended to do this,
then Lance should have been the one who cherished a snake in his bosoms, making him unable to
face his daughter. So he was in hope of getting rid of the matter as long as his daughter didn't wake up
and trying to hide the secret forever. He wouldn't mind killing Rocky, but before that, he wanted to give
him a chance to explain.
"Rocky, if you were not involved in this matter, or if you had any other reason for doing this, please do
explain it to the Commander in Chief right away. I believe that he would handle the matter justly,"
Sabina said to Rocky, her eyes becoming cold. It was her duty to protect Rocky, and of course to keep
him alive. But if Lance was serious about killing Rocky, then that really added up to Sabina's dilemma.
And with the strength Lance possessed, even if she had the courage to stop him, it would be
impossible for her to cope with it. So she hoped if Rocky were to explain the situation clearly to Lance,
then they could avoid a confrontation.
Actually, Marin had never believed about Rocky doing something like this, that too against her cousin.
However, when she questioned Rocky, he didn't deny about his involvement. This added to her worry.
But, she was still in hope about Rocky explaining it clearly. She also knew that, with the kind of person
Lance was, after he made a decision, it would be impossible to revert it.
What it meant was, if Lance was determined to kill Rocky, then nobody could prevent it from
happening, and she never wanted to see that.
Upon seeing this, Rocky knew that Lance was not joking. But he was in a dilemma at the moment,
because if he were to admit that he had become a lover of Isis in order to save her, Lance would never
let him go. After all, the reputation of his daughter was very important. Besides, Isis was the Deputy
Commander in Chief of Crimson Dragon Army and one of Three Great Generals' daughter. If this was
known by others, Lance would lose his face as well.
But if he refused to admit it, he would be lying to himself. In the end, it would only result in making
things more troublesome.
All this made pushed him into dilemma and made him unaware of what was to be done. Though he
was an honest and upright man, it was impossible for Lance to accept the fact that his daughter was
slept by him. It was basic human nature, especially for a man who loved his daughter dearly.
"Rocky, are you going to tell me or not?" Obviously, Lance was impatient. He was getting mad while holds text © rights.
thinking about the perils his daughter had to undergo. If it weren't for the fact that Rocky was important
to Crimson Dragon Army, he would have killed him with one blow right away. He had a strong intuition
that Rocky certainly had something to do with it.
"Okay, I can explain. But I am making it clear that what I am about to tell is the actual truth. If you are
not going to believe me, then I am left with no other options." Rocky quickly had a glance at Lance and
hesitated for a while before saying. Now, the only remaining option for them was to verify the situation.
Even if Lance didn't believe what Rocky had said, he could delay the investigation till Isis woke up.
Just when Rocky was about to explain, a voice came up from outside the tent. "Commander in Chief, I
have something to inform you."
"Come in." Hearing this, Lance gestured.
A figure then walked in and it was the Frontline Commander, Tod.
"Commander, what's going on?" Lance asked with his darkened eyes.
"Commander in Chief, these two belonged to the Deputy Commander in Chief. A female guard found it
from her perfume bag. Due to the disappearance of the Deputy Commander in Chief, I thought I should
have them examined by you." Finishing his words, Tod immediately handed over two crumpled letters.
While handing over the two letters to Lance, he gave a strange look at Rocky.
At this time, Lance took over the two letters. He was in shock with his eyes widely opened. Then he
shouted at Rocky at the next moment, "It seems you are the arch-criminal responsible for Isis'
disappearance. It was you who lured her to the Mount Clouds on purpose. Now tell me what your
purpose was for this."
