CHAPTER 969 MADE GOOD PROGRESS
Just as the two of them were talking, Lucas came in and saw that Rocky was back. His face lit up like
the sky on new year's eve. However, his movements slowed down as he approached, and his brows
scrunched up in confusion, as he studied Rocky intensely. He gasped in shock and exclaimed, "Mr.
Rookie! Your aura has suddenly..."
"I can't hide it from you, can I?" Seeing that Lucas had sensed the change in his aura, Rocky smiled
calmly. With Lucas' strength, it was easy for him to sense that his aura was stronger than before.
However, because of the existance of the power of the Holy Dragon Bead in his body, even Lucas
didn't know how strong Rocky was now. He could only feel that Rocky's aura was much stronger than
before, which was the reason that he was so surprised.
"Master Lucas, what's wrong with Mr. Rookie?" Noticing the unspoken conversation between the two,
Lucilla couldn't help but ask.
"Nothing. I just feel that I have a new appraisal of him since we haven't seen each other for a few
days." Lucas knew that Rocky didn't like it when others probed into his affairs, so he didn't say anything
more.
Lucilla seemed to realize that she would not get a straight answer, so she didn't push for more. Instead,
she walked back to her seat, as something suddenly occurred to her. "By the way, Mr. Rookie, the chief
of the Xiao Clan sent you a letter," she said, rummaging the documents that were piled high on her
table until she finally found what she was looking for. It was a letter addressed to Rocky.
"Is this from Juey?" Rocky took the letter with a smile. Once he verified that there was nothing else they
needed, he said goodbye and left the Magnificent Hall.
On the way back to the big room, Rocky opened the letter and read it. Greetings of good fortune
started the letter, and it was eloquently followed by Juey's narration of how the beast hospital was
progressing so far.
He was pleasantly surprised that the beast hospital was progressing faster than he had expected. In
less than half a month, the Xiao Clan had almost completed the first part of the construction plan, which
was to establish the first beast hospital. From what Juey had said in the letter, the first hospital was
built based on the Magical Beast House, and it also used the beast curing resources owned by the
Magical Beast House, which explained why it was built so fast.
"She's quite smart. It seems that the first beast hospital will appear in the Wild Spirit Land soon," Rocky
murmured to himself, as he nodded with satisfaction.
He put away the letter, as he walked into the big room, where he saw a delicate figure that was
standing before a table for dismemberment. She was skillfully dismembering a corpse of a spirit-
manipulated beast, and she was so focused on what she was doing that she didn't notice Rocky at all.
After a while, the figure finally sensed his aura. At first, she was alarmed by the sudden presence, but
when she turned around, she saw that it was just Rocky. She snorted lightly then went back to what
she was doing with no care for him.
Rocky looked around the big room and found that the corpses of the spirit-manipulated beasts, which
he had asked Thomas to collect, were already dismembered, and several big vats were also filled with
classified organs.
"It seems that you didn't slack off these days when I was away. That's good!" Rocky nodded with a faint
smile.
"You are back! You smell of a woman's perfume! You must have dated somebody else behind my
sister's back, didn't you? How dare you propose to my sister..." Queenie glared at Rocky as if she was
looking at an unfaithful husband.
"You know that I proposed to your sister just to help the Cao Clan out," Rocky replied.
"Even so, you proposed to my sister in front of so many people, and now the whole country knows that
my sister has accepted your proposal and will marry you soon. So, whether you are sincere or not, you
have to marry her." Queenie discovered the truth two days after Rocky left. She was surprised that he
had proposed to her sister just to help the Cao Clan, and not for his personal interest. However, the
marriage proposal was spread wide in the capital of the country, so even if it was not true, she felt that
for the sake of her sister's reputation, Rocky had to marry her sister.
"It has nothing to do with you. Just do your job," Rocky replied calmly, although he saw that Queenie
was not happy about it.
"If you don't marry my sister, I won't let you go easily. I won't allow anyone to hurt her again," Queenie
declared as she stared at Rocky.
"Your sister is a strong woman. She is stronger than you know, and she is much more mature than you.
If she is affected badly by this kind of thing, she doesn't deserve to be the chief of the Cao Clan,"
Rocky said with a smile.
"You..." Queenie stuttered. She knew that from the beginning, Rocky saw her as a little girl, which
made her very unhappy. C0ntent © 2024 (N/ô)velDrama.Org.
"Summon the larva of the Dark Heaven Insect that I sent to your sister. Let me see if it has been
mistreated by you." Rocky then changed the topic.
"I didn't mistreat it! For your information, I took care of it very well." Despite her protests, she opened
the Magic Spiritual Space to summon the larva.
"Not bad..." Rocky squatted down in front of the larva and examined it. After a while, he nodded with
satisfaction and said, "It seems that you are quite attentive to it. But don't feed it too much, and you
should let it exercise. Otherwise, it will become fat like your spiritual beast."
"Hey! That's none of your business," Queenie retorted angrily.
"I have some personal things to do. You can go back now and rest." Rocky dismissed her lightly, but he
could see that she didn't want to go yet.
"I can finish the dismemberment in an hour. Shouldn't you teach me the real Beast Curing Skill?"
Queenie asked, glancing at Rocky and pouting.
He knew that she would not take no for an answer, so he just sighed and asked, "Can we do that
tomorrow instead?"
"Okay. Don't go back on your word!" Queenie said before she left.
As soon as she was gone, he immediately opened the Magic Spiritual Space and entered it. He saw
the body of the ancient spiritual beast crawling in a corner. It looked very quiet without any sign of
power that was out of control, and it did not have any impact on his Magic Spiritual Space.
"Hello, can you hear me?" Rocky looked at the ancient spiritual beast and called out to see if the
Dragon-shaped Soul Beast had any response. He was not sure if the Dragon-shaped Soul Beast was
still attached to the body of the ancient spiritual beast.
However, Rocky received no response after a long while.
'Maybe it is asleep...' Rocky thought, raising his eyebrows. He observed how the two larvae of the Dark
Heaven Insect were doing, as they underwent the genetic modification experiments. He found that in
just three days, the two larvae had shown obvious changes, and their progress was very smooth.
"It seems that good progress has been made. This means that I can continue to experiment with two
more larvae." He studied his larvae for a while more before he took two of the remaining four larvae
into the laboratory.
