CHAPTER 943 THE MARRIAGE BETWEEN TWO CLANS

Although Alexander took out a low-grade Three-color Ganoderma, it was not more valuable than a

living larva of Dark Heaven Insect. They were not even at the same level.

Rocky's generosity made Alexander's face turn ghastly pale. And compared to his earlier proud

attitude, he was now as quiet as a lamb. At that moment, he could not send anything that could be

better than a living larva of the Dark Heaven Insect.

Alexander stared at Rocky with a grim face. Geoffrey had previously told him to secretly draw Rocky

over to their side before he dealt with the Cao Clan, but when they found that Rocky was very close to

Woods, they chose to forget Rocky for the time being and carry out this plan to force the Cao Clan to

unite with them through marriage first. However, they did not expect that Rocky would get in the way of

their plans. From the very beginning, Rocky was like the Qi Clan's nemesis, as he continuously ruined

every plan that they had carefully arranged.

Meanwhile, Tate was also staring at Rocky with a murderous expression. He knew that the Qi Clan had

been completely overshadowed by Rocky and that Rocky had already won Lucilla's favor. Of the two,

the latter was the one that made him unbearably furious.

"Ladies and gentlemen, I have to go and talk with Mr. Rookie privately. Master Lucas will entertain you

in my place. Please forgive me!" After handing the larva in her arms to Queenie, Lucilla turned around

and scanned the crowd, throwing Tate a passing glance. It pleased her beyond measure to see the

hatred in his eyes, as she felt that he deserved the humiliation. She hated Tate since the day that he

broke off their engagement, and she felt vindicated and overjoyed, for today she was able to pay him

back.

After hearing Lucilla's words, the crowd looked at each other and discussed heatedly. The wonderful

farce finally came to an end. What happened here was really exciting to them. Of course, the most

important thing was that they had a new understanding of the mysterious Mr. Rookie of the Cao Clan.

They learned that Mr. Rookie not only had the strength of a powerful beast master, but he could also

casually give three middle-grade Dark Heaven Eggs and a living larva of the Dark Heaven Insect as

gifts to Lucilla. It was the first time that they had seen such things.

As such, everyone had new speculations about Rocky's identity, for they thought that he might have a

thought-provoking background.

But the one who started all this ruckus looked calm and composed. He put away his Dark Heaven

Insect. and nodded to Lucilla, and then they both turned to leave, just in case the Qi Clan found

another opportunity to stir up more trouble.

But at this moment, a man suddenly appeared at the red gate that led to the Magnificent Hall's

courtyard, and he was surrounded by a group of people.

When the man came close enough to be recognized, they were all shocked because this man was the

second prince, Geoffrey.

Lucilla was also surprised to see that Geoffrey came uninvited.

Lucas' face darkened at the unexpected guest because he knew that trouble was brewing once again.

This man would not have come if he had no trouble to bring upon their heads.

"Why are you all standing outside?" Geoffrey asked calmly when he saw that everyone was standing

outside the Magnificent Hall.

Silence settled over the hall, as everyone bowed to show respect to him.

"I heard that today is your birthday, so I came to give you some presents." Geoffrey waved his hand

and at once, his men came forward with some silks, satin, and several boxes.

"Thank you, Your Royal Highness." Lucilla nodded with a smile and then ordered people to take them.

"Let's not loiter around here and go inside," Geoffrey said. He glanced at Alexander and Tate, who

looked like stray dogs, and a flash of displeasure passed quickly in his eyes. As if nothing had

happened, he turned his back on them and proceeded into the hall.

Lucilla exchanged a look with Lucas and then glanced at Rocky before following Geoffrey into the hall.

The other people also entered the hall.

Soon, only Lucas, Rocky, and Queenie, who was playing with the larva, were left outside. C0ntent © 2024 (N/ô)velDrama.Org.

"It's not a coincidence that Geoffrey came!" Lucas muttered, looking at Rocky.

"I'm afraid that the Qi Clan and Geoffrey have already joined hands!" Rocky said with a pensive frown

on his face. He had already heard about it from Alyssa before, but he thought that it would be better if

he did not mention that.

"What?" Lucas was shocked. If that was the case, then there would be trouble.

Rocky could understand the fear that flashed across Lucas' face, but they had other things that needed

their attention. He shook his head and motioned to the door. "Let's go inside first and see what that guy

is up to," said Rocky.

After that, Rocky and Lucas also entered the hall, while Queenie put the larva into the Magic Spiritual

Space and walked in after them.

As soon as they stepped inside, they noticed the suffocating silence that enveloped the whole hall

because of Geoffrey's appearance. Nobody even dared to breathe heavily, and their eyes were focused

on him, as they wondered whether he was truly here just to participate in Lucilla's birthday party or if he

had something else in his mind. After all, it was just a birthday party. It was unimaginable that Geoffrey

would come personally.

After the three of them came in, Geoffrey's eyes immediately fell on Rocky. He had been hearing a lot

about Rocky these days. According to his intelligence, Rocky was very close to Woods, and because of

him, Woods had a conflict with Algy. He knew then that Rocky was likely to be recruited by Woods. If

Rocky was recruited by Woods, the Cao Clan would certainly side with Woods when the time came for

it. Therefore, it was impossible to win over Rocky, so he could only deal with the Cao Clan directly.

Geoffrey had expected that the Qi Clan's plan would succeed, as they thought that if they pushed the

Cao Clan into a corner, he could easily swoop in afterward and take action to control them. He didn't

expect that the Qi Clan would fail, so he had to come in person this time.

"Isn't today the birthday of Chief Lucilla? Why doesn't it look lively at all? What happened?" Geoffrey

looked around innocently, as he inquired with a smile.

"Your Royal Highness, the truth is that my son just proposed to Chief Lucilla." Alexander seized the

opportunity to tell Geoffrey what had happened.

"Oh, really? A marriage between the two big clans will be wonderful for our Timber Deity Empire. If

what he said is true, I, the second prince of the Timber Deity Empire, am willing to help the Qi Clan

propose to you. I wonder if you will accept it, Chief Lucilla?" Geoffrey's remarks caused another uproar

in the hall. No one had expected that Geoffrey would propose a marriage for the Qi Clan in person. It

was obvious that he wanted Lucilla to reconsider the proposal.

At this time, Lucilla frowned. She didn't expect that Geoffrey would meddle in this matter. It was obvious

now to everyone that Geoffrey was siding with the Qi Clan.
