CHAPTER 738 GOT THE WRONG PERSON

Afterwards, Marcia and the emperor were left alone in the Grand Holy Hall. She glanced at the pale

emperor before attempting to leave, but his grave voice stopped her, "General Marcia, when did you

realize that Rocky was Basil?"

"I sent Sabina to find Basil and protect him. Since then, I knew Rocky was Basil." Marcia turned around

to reply to the emperor's question.

"Why didn't you tell me? Why did you send Sabina to protect him?" the emperor demanded.

"Your Majesty, the reason why I didn't tell you is because I thought Basil had done something

unforgivable and that you hadn't forgiven him yet. So I didn't say anything, just in case. As for sending

Sabina to protect Basil, it's because after he reached the Heavenly Stage, he broke the seal I had set

in his body, making the Holy Dragon Bead's power in his body harder to control. I feared that the Holy

Dragon Bead's power would go out of control again, so I sent Sabina to look for him and protect him. If

his power went out of control, she could help him through the difficulty," Marcia explained.

"Even a vicious tiger doesn't eat its cubs. He is my child. Since Lena has already forgiven him, why

wouldn't I?" the emperor sighed tiredly.

"I'm sorry, Your Majesty. I knew his identity and yet I didn't tell you. Please punish me," Marcia said

from her low bow.

"Never mind. Now that Basil's dead, there's no point in punishing you. I worry about Lena. It seems that

she has deep feelings for Basil." He could see from Lena's expression that she loved Basil very much

and he also knew that Basil's death must be a heavy blow to bear.

"Please leave this to me. I will be by her side. There's no need for concern, Your Majesty!" Unknown to

the emperor, Marcia's eyes turned dark as she spoke and then she turned and left.

When Rocky's true identity as the prince was revealed to the public and most people grieved over his

death, Rocky himself was marching in an endless desert.

It didn't take long for him to realize that the desert was rife with threats and was no less dangerous than

the Myriad Beasts Ground. Many flying spirit-manipulated beasts abounded in the air, swift and fierce.

Wild spirit-manipulated beasts at the four-star level could jump out of the sand at any moment.

Fortunately, they rarely came in groups. Otherwise, it would be near impossible for Rocky to survive in

the desert.

Luckily, Rocky had integrated the evil spiritual power of the second layer of the seal and greatly

increased his strength. It allowed him to narrowly escape danger each time. He was somewhat happy

with the fact that the wild spirit-manipulated beasts in this desert were mostly all different from all the

wild spirit-manipulated beasts he'd seen before. Perhaps it was because of the geographic division of

the land, and so they offered him a precious pool of experiments.

He'd been walking in the desert for two or three days already, and yet he hadn't seen hide or hair of

anyone, let alone a city, even if he was many times faster than normal people.

Sue's death was a heavy weight in his heart that he couldn't shake off. Even though he could force

himself to smile, he cursed inside to vent his hatred for Alston.

Because the desert had no earth, the three Dark Heaven Insects and the seven Dark Heaven Cubs

were starving. Rocky wanted to leave this desert as soon as possible.

Just as Rocky was about to curse again, the Rainbow Glow Unicorn, who stood next to him, suddenly

shouted in excitement. When Rocky quickly turned to look, the Rainbow Glow Unicorn ran up a high

slope.

"Hey, foodie!" Rocky called out, but the Rainbow Glow Unicorn continued to gallop forward, so he was

forced to catch up.

Once he reached the slope while chasing after the Rainbow Glow Unicorn, he could only gape at the

sight that welcomed him. A tropical rain forest sprawled beneath the slope. It wasn't very thick but it

was apparent.

"We're finally out of the desert!" Rocky exclaimed and ran down to the tropical rain forest with the

Rainbow Glow Unicorn.

After they entered the rain forest, Rocky immediately headed to a small pond and gulped down water

with bright satisfaction on his face. He lived off the blood of the Deserted Sand Crabs, and while it was

as good as fine wine, it turned sour on his tongue once he drank too much.

After the Rainbow Glow Unicorn also drank some water, they wandered through the forest and picked

up some fruits.

The tropical rain forest wasn't very peaceful as there were a lot of wild spirit-manipulated beasts, but

they were much weaker than the ones in the desert. They were basically only at the one-star or two-

star level. So their journey forward went smoothly as the low-star wild spirit-manipulated beasts

disappeared without a trace at the first sign of the Rainbow Glow Unicorn's aura.

Two hours later, Rocky frowned when the peace was disturbed by the noise of a fight. He looked

around and soon saw a thick coconut forest. A fine woman battled against a spirit-manipulated beast at

the second grade of the three-star level, but she was obviously not a match because she was at the

fourth or fifth grade of the Earthly Stage at most. Even though the woman had partnered with a spirit-

manipulated beast at the second grade of the three-star level, she was still at a disadvantage.

Rocky couldn't see her face because she had her back to him. C0ntent © 2024 (N/ô)velDrama.Org.

Perhaps it was because the fight lasted for too long, her spiritual power felt weak. Soon, the beast

managed to hit her right arm and leave a fierce injury. She retreated a few steps back because of the

pain. In her thin sleeveless leather coat, leather pants, and a pair of high boots, she seemed so sexy.

But more than her body, her face was even more striking.

"Sue..." The name left Rocky's lips when he saw her face. In his mind, they looked similar, but the

woman in front of him was like a sexier and more mature version of Sue. Although she wasn't very

beautiful, it was charming enough to attract people's attention.

As soon as the wild spirit-manipulated beast saw that the woman was injured, it immediately launched

a fierce attack. Her wound obviously hindered her and she reacted a moment too late.

Rocky's eyes rested on the woman's face for a moment, and in the next moment, he pressed his right

hand on the Rainbow Glow Unicorn's forehead. In the blink of an eye, he and the Rainbow Glow

Unicorn disappeared.
