"It has nothing to do with you," Rocky exclaimed with narrowed eyes. As soon as he returned, he learned about the news that Alyssa was the one who took Lena away.
"What the hell are you planning, Alyssa?" Rocky mumbled to himself. At that moment, he could not contain his anger that he even scared little Nigel off Sue's arms, making him cry.
Of course, Sue immediately tried to soothe Nigel. But Rocky only looked straight past them as his thoughts flew over to somewhere else.
Meanwhile, right outside the walls of the Imperial City, Alyssa and Lena had returned to the Holy Dragon Empire.
At that moment, in the Spiritual King Hall, Alston was beyond thrilled to see Alyssa take Lena back. However, Lena's face turned sour as soon as she saw Alston.
"Lena, you're finally back!" Alston exclaimed enthusiastically and rushed towards Lena.
"I'd rather die than have you near me," Lena threatened and scowled at him.
Hearing this, Alston stopped in his tracks. He knew very well that Lena was capable of doing what she had just threatened him with.
"Your Majesty, now is the time for you to fulfill your promise!" Alyssa reminded as she looked at Alston with glistening eyes.
He glanced back at Alyssa and then turned to Dean, saying, "Issue an imperial edict that all our forces will be handed over to Alyssa's commander. Do it at once."
Without hesitation, Dean took the order from Alston and left the palace in a hurry.
"Good. A deal's a deal. Then I won't disturb you anymore." After finishing her words, Alyssa met Lena's eyes once more and turned away.
Not long after, Alston dismissed all the people in the Spiritual King Hall, leaving him and Lena with some privacy.
"Oh, Lena, I've searched everywhere for you! You don't know how long I've been looking for you. I missed you so much!" Alston said in an apparent affectionate tone.
"You very well know that we can't be together. Alston, I love Basil," Lena replied indifferently.
"I don't mind. Not at all. I may not get your heart, but I sure can get your body, and that's enough. And for as long as you are not with that guy, I will be satisfied," Alston said as a sinister smile crept his evil face.
"You're nothing but a freak! Get off me!" Lena screamed furiously.
"This is perfect. Now that you are in my hands, Basil will most certainly be driven off his wits. When that happens, he'll go falling for my trap," Alston said slyly.
"I'd rather have myself killed than let you threaten Basil. I won't let you use me as the bait." Hearing Alston's plan of using her to catch Basil, Lena was angry and frustrated. Soon after, her whole body shone with golden light. Her meridians might have been sealed by Alyssa, but she was capable of killing both her and Alston in one blow.
"Lena, listen to me. I'm no longer the old Alston you used to know, and I won't be too polite to you anymore." Alston furrowed his brows and waved his hand. In the blink of an eye, a myriad of shadows shot out, tangling Lena in an instant.
Not long after, Lena felt a piercing kind of pain all over her body. Moreover, the golden light on her body disappeared. She was in immense pain, but her tantalizing eyes were still glaring directly at Alston.
"Guards! Take her and send her back to the Witch Palace. As soon as I am done with what I am doing, we shall hold an extravagant and grand wedding. Do not hold back with the preparation! Hahaha..." Alston laughed with abandon as if nothing else would go wrong with his plan.
