CHAPTER 731 REBIRTH
The moment Sabina left, a giant shadow quickly appeared from the sky. The beautiful figure on the
back of the shadow landed on the ground. As she looked at the bodies in front of her, the woman
frowned. Then, she noticed another body that lay motionless on the ground not far away from her.
"It can't be. Woods!" with a worried expression, Alyssa frantically shouted and then she rushed up to
Woods. As her hands trembled, she immediately checked his breath. However, to her dismay, Woods
didn't breathe anymore...
Alyssa's eyes suddenly widened in anger. Frustration enveloped her face as she shouted, "It must be
Rocky. Rocky is the one that murdered my brother!" Sadness overwhelmed her heart.
When Alyssa was about to take Woods' body and leave, Woods suddenly let out a deep gasp. As he
exhaled once again, Woods suddenly got up.
"Woods? Thank goodness, you're alive!" Alyssa exclaimed with a joyous voice. The sadness on her
face was soon replaced by happiness. She felt that what happened just then was unbelievable.
"Huh? I'm not dead?" After he finally woke up, Woods immediately stood up and stared at Alyssa in
surprise. Then, he looked around curiously and asked, "Where is Rocky?"
"That bastard escaped. But don't worry. I won't let him go. I'll make sure he pays dearly for trying to kill
you!" Alyssa said ferociously as she gritted her teeth.
"No, he didn't. Instead, he actually saved me," Woods said as he shook his head. Then, he felt
something in his bosom. As he tried to catch his breath, Woods took the thing out and it turned out to
be a red pearl.
"What? Isn't that the Dragon Flame Pearl?" A surprised expression painted Alyssa's face as she
noticed the pearl. Immediately, she grabbed it from Woods.
"I believe Rocky used that to save me." Although he had no idea how it worked, Woods was sure that
Rocky saved him with the Dragon Flame Pearl.
"What? The Dragon Flame Pearl belongs to Rocky? That means the treasure map also belongs to..."
Alyssa softly whispered to herself as a thought passed through her mind.
"Alyssa, Rocky saved my life. Nonetheless, he might be in danger right now. Please send people to
find him immediately!" Woods shouted frantically as he suddenly remembered that someone was still
chasing after Rocky.
"He's in danger? What kind of danger?" Alyssa asked sincerely. C0ntent © 2024 (N/ô)velDrama.Org.
"I can't tell you now. But you must find him!" After he hesitated for a while, Woods decided not to tell
her the real identity of Rocky. With Alyssa's personality, Woods didn't know what would happen if he
told her. Rocky saved his life. As such, Woods had to keep this secret for him.
"I got it. I'll send you back to our country first. I'm so sorry, it's all my fault. I should have accompanied
you and Rocky back to the Timber Deity Empire," Alyssa said remorsefully as she didn't expect things
to go like that. Back then, Rocky triggered her curse seal by chance, which she couldn't accept. As
such, she left in panic and went to somewhere to calm down.
"Please promise me. You have to find him immediately!" Woods pleaded with pitiful eyes.
"Don't worry. Even if you don't ask, I will meticulously search for him." Alyssa gave a curious look at the
Dragon Flame Pearl in her hand. A peculiar expression then painted her beautiful face. At that moment,
she suddenly realized that Rocky was connected with her in some way. Otherwise, he would not own
the three lost treasures of the Roaring Flame Empire she was looking for. Of course, what she most
wanted was the treasure map. Long before, she already knew that the treasure map contained an
important secret of the Holy Dragon Empire. Therefore, she had to find Rocky immediately. It didn't
matter if he was the one or not.
The news that Rocky paid allegiance to the Timber Deity Empire had already spread across the
Gehenna Border. The whole Crimson Dragon Army was shocked when they heard the awful news. No
one would believe that Rocky had betrayed them. Nonetheless, the news was soon spread to Evian
City. Lance was also shocked when he heard the story. With a regretful face, he couldn't believe that
Rocky had betrayed them!
The moment he heard the story, Lance immediately rushed to the main camp of Crimson Dragon Army.
After he had arrived, he learned that Rocky was missing, which made him feel worried.
A day later, the news of Rocky's treachery had already spread to the Imperial City. The entire imperial
family and the Palace City were also startled by the news. They didn't understand why Rocky, who was
already a rising star of the Holy Dragon Empire, suddenly defected to the Timber Deity Empire.
The emperor of the Holy Dragon Empire was very angry. He immediately ordered to keep the news
confidential in order to avoid a bad influence. However, the news came from one to another and spread
like wildfire to the citizens. Overnight, Rocky became notorious in the Holy Dragon Empire.
Isis who just returned to the Imperial City also learned the news. Tearful eyes accompanied her
confused face as she was also astonished. With her understanding of Rocky, Isis couldn't believe that
he would betray the Holy Dragon Empire. Immediately, she asked someone to send a letter to Lance.
She wanted to know what actually happened. However, two days later, she received a letter from
Lance. The letter revealed that Rocky was missing. Worried, she wanted to go back immediately to the
Gehenna Border. However, Lance told her to wait in the Imperial City. He told her when everything was
clear he would go back to the Imperial City immediately to clarify the situation about Rocky.
Nonetheless, a strange string of events unfolded. When the news of Rocky's treachery was widely
spread, the Timber Deity Empire suddenly announced to cease the war and retreated all the military
forces to its border. The warriors of the Crimson Dragon Army were badly injured after the battles.
Additionally the news about Rocky had already spread widely. As such, Lance also ordered to cease
the battle and withdrew the troops to the main camp.
As the news about the betrayal of Rocky was widely spread in the Holy Dragon Empire, a new
beginning awaited from a faraway place. In a cave made of grotesque sandstone in a desolate desert,
a man who seemed to be sleeping for a long time slowly opened his eyes. A look of confusion painted
his handsome face. He stood up and looked around the boundless desert outside in bewilderment.
'What's happening? I'm supposed to be dead. Where is this place? Why am I here?' Rocky frowned
and tapped his face to make sure that he was still alive. However, he was in a strange place.
Everything seemed so inconceivable and his confusion grew even worse.
"Sue?" Rocky suddenly called out with a surprised look. However, he immediately shook his head
sorrowfully. With a sad tone, he said, "Sue has been dead. It's all my fault. If it weren't for me, she
would still be alive. Actually, it's Alston's fault. That bastard! I'll murder him even if it's the last thing I
do!"
After he grieved, Rocky immediately stood up and dusted off his clothes. Dressed in rags, he looked
like a beggar. Strangely, there were no injuries on his body. He was supposed to be seriously injured,
yet even his internal injuries were gone.
'Someone must have saved me. That person must have also healed my wounds and brought me here.
But who might he be?' Rocky pondered with a confused expression. Nonetheless, he couldn't find the
answer at the moment.
