"Really? Are you certain? I don't think that you are responsible for the ambush outside," Rocky said as a sharp light flashed in his eyes.
"What did you say?!" Flank's eyes widened and he immediately stood up in shock.
After a while, a few figures started to break in via the side hall's window and door, scattering shards of wood everywhere on the floor. With no time left to spare, they surrounded Rocky and Flank. All of them exuded an aura of the Heavenly Stage. In fact, one of their members had even reached the seventh grade of the Heavenly Stage.
"Now that you have seen it with your own eyes, you have to believe it. It appears that Alston plans to frame you right after he takes my life," Rocky added as he looked calmly at Flank.
Seeing the evidence right in front of him, Flank suddenly came into his senses that Rocky was indeed, telling the truth. His once lively face had turned ashen in fear, for he finally realized that he would be the next one to be killed.
"I can save you, Flank. But only under one condition: give me five thousand of your mighty soldiers, and I will help you." As soon as he saw a window of opportunity, Rocky began to strike a bargain with Flank.
"Really? Can you save me?" Flank got even more confused. These Heavenly Stage masters who ambushed them were very violent and intense. Knowing this, Flank thought that there was no easy way for Rocky to escape with him. In fact, they could only get away from them safely if Rocky was a master at the Supernal Stage.
"So, is it a deal or not?" Rocky asked as he gave a smirk.
Flank was out of options. If he wanted to stay alive, then there was no other choice for him but to trust Rocky at the moment and gamble at this time. Soon, he nodded his head and accepted Rocky's terms.
"Kill them all!" the black-robed spirit manipulator commanded the masters at the Heavenly Stage. Soon, these masters flocked towards Rocky and Flank and began to attack.
They cooperated in such a harmonious way that they were able to block Rocky and Flank's way instantly, leaving them unable to escape.
Meanwhile, an ear-splitting sound came from the ceiling of the side hall.
It was a wreck—shards of ice were splashed all over the place, and the tiles were blasted, leaving bits of broken ceramic lying on the floor. These damages created a massive hole in the ceiling. Not long after, a graceful figure with a Supernal Stage aura flew down from the sky. As she twirled and turned, strong icy force roared out of her body, shocking the Heavenly Stage masters to their core.
All the Heavenly Stage masters were caught off guard at the sight of such formidable power. They knew they were no match for her, so they immediately retreated under the woman's icy attack.
Without a doubt, it was no other than Sabina who came to rescue Rocky and Flank.
"I can't believe this! A Supernal Stage master!" The black-robed spirit manipulator was startled. He didn't expect that a master at the Supernal Stage would suddenly appear out of thin air. Obviously, she was here to save Rocky from their evil clutches. Sabina's strength posed a big problem to the other masters. Even if they joined their hands and combined their power, there was no certainty that they would be able to defeat Sabina. Moreover, being a master at the Supernal Stage, Sabina gave them the fear of being seen through their identities.
"Retreat!" Undeniably, they were about to lose control of the situation. Soon enough, the black-robed spirit manipulator ordered all his cohorts to disappear in the blink of an eye.
"I must say that there are quite a few perks for having a bodyguard at the Supernal Stage. Did you see how terrified they were? Oh, I will make sure that everyone fears her." Rocky raised his eyebrows and placed his gaze at Flank, whose face had changed.
"So, what about the five thousand soldiers that you promised me?" Rocky reminded Flank.
"Ah, yes. They shall be on the north of the city," Flank responded as he braced himself.
