Rebirth of the Prime Dragon Master novel Chapter 391

Tranquil filled the air as their hurrahs halted. The silence hung in the air like the suspended moment. The crowd stared at each other with stupefied expressions. None of them took Rocky's words sincerely. How could he alone help them out of the prevailing dilemma or perform any adjustments?

Isis and Marin were both looking sullen at Rocky. Obviously, they were taking Rocky's words in the same way as the crowd did. They were aware Rocky was out of the ordinary, but he was not a god after all. The Wild Heaven Pass was hanging by a thread now, and it was highly preposterous, like drawing blood from a turnip, that his existence could turn the tables.

"What? None of you figure out I alone can lend a helping hand here? Well, I'd better take my departure right away." Rocky wore a faint smile as glancing at Isis and Marin's faces. Shaking his head, he turned around and put up a false front to make his exit.

"Hold on!" Isis hollered out in a twinkle of an eye, almost based on her conditioned reflex.

"Fulfill my two prerequisites, and then I won't take off." Rocky smirked. It was as warm as hour old coffee and he turned to look at Isis.

Seeing his snigger, Isis finally became cognizant that it was all his swindle, which drove her into an outburst in a split of seconds. However, she struggled hard to keep a curb on her resentment and inquired, "What do you demand?"

"First, I require five hundred people leaving here to give me a leg up. The others withdraw from the Wild Heaven Pass right now and move to the valley behind the pass. Second, don't try to solicit the reason from me. I don't want to consume my time revealing." Rocky airily folded his arms in front of his chest.

Silence swept over the air one more time. The silence caressed their skin like a cool summer breeze. Almost everyone present was gawking at Rocky with bemused glances. They could not even fathom what their ears just discovered and thought Rocky must be out of mind. The Crimson Dragon Army had been fighting like hell against the Timber Deity Army to guard the Wild Heaven Pass. If they retreated now, the Timber Deity Army could occupy the Wild Heaven Pass as promptly as blinking an eye. Then what they had undertaken would be all in vain in the end.

What Rocky just suggested was so feather-brained that none of the crowd had a sneaking suspicion Isis would respond yes to him.

"Rocky, how can we understand what you plan to do if you don't give an interpretation at all?" Marin remarked out of turbulence. She wore a baffled expression. She was free from doubt about Rocky's abilities because she already witnessed how good Rocky was during the fight in the Rough Slope. But what Rocky just proposed was too preposterous to be understood without clarification. Even if she could trust his abilities, how could those soldiers be dispelled their doubts to follow his order?

"Well, then forget it!" Rocky shrugged as he cast a glance at Isis. Then he turned to wend his way to Rubygon.

"Okay! I guarantee you the two obligations." That abrupt response caught everyone by wonder. They were dumb stricken.

Everyone peered at the origin of the voice, and it turned out to be Isis.

She displayed a resolute expression as she peered at Rocky, which illustrated her complete assurance in Rocky.

In a dash, the crowd began talking under their breath among themselves. None of them had in the prospect that Isis would swallow the information on the hook about what Rocky just suggested.

Yet, Isis suddenly in a split of seconds raised her arm, which dampened their conversation at once.

"Attention! Retreat from the Wild Heaven Pass in an hour. Committing to an infringement of my order only earns military retribution. Commence moving now!" Isis commanded as the Deputy Commander in Chief.

The crowd was all frozen as hearing Isis. Adrenaline flooded their system. Seeing none of them execute her order, Isis exclaimed, "What the hell are you doing? Help the injured members out of here first! Go! Go! Go!"

Those soldiers present in the end moved and commenced their jobs.

Following the origin of the commotion, Tod and Dunn showed up and only saw the soldiers going like a bat out of hell. Both of them were confused by such a picture, causing them to be at a stand. And when they got a glimpse of Rocky standing in front of Isis and Marin, they were taken aback. Neither of them had expected that Rocky would come here.

"Deputy Commander in Chief, what happened?" Tod inquired.

"You are here at the right time, Commander Tod. Give the low-down to the soldiers to withdraw from the left city wall. Let them back down with the others from the Wild Heaven Pass right now!" Isis ordered Tod without reluctance.

"Retreat from the Wild Heaven Pass?" Tod was more mind bent than before.

"I have no time to give a justification to you for this. Go to notice them first!" Isis waved at him, motioning for him to move.
