Rebirth of the Prime Dragon Master novel Chapter 716

Woods had long set up an invisible net, both in the air and on the land, so he could prevent Rocky from escaping. He cast a glance at the three masters of the Heavenly Stage, who summoned their spirit-manipulated beasts to fight Sabina and her Duchess Silver with a joint effort. Sabina was busy fighting with them, which slowed her progress in breaking out of the encirclement.

At the same time, arrows were raining in all directions like a storm, and even though Rocky and Uriah tried to protect others with all their might, people were falling like flies beside them. Soon, most of them had died, leaving only about twenty of them.

"Surround them!" Woods ordered his men when he felt that it was the right time. Numerous figures barricaded Rocky and his soldiers so tightly that it was impossible to break out.

Just a few feet away, Sabina was still fighting with the three master-hands. Although she successfully injured one and she wasn't in any danger of losing, their fight had been going on for so long that it had cost her too much physical and spiritual power. Thus, her combat power had been greatly weakened, and now, she was unable to back Rocky up.

"Commander in Chief, please leave us and get out of here with Commander Sabina!" Thor, who was covered with wounds all over his body, shouted to Rocky, as he helped Joss who was badly-injured. It was a calculated move on his part, and what he believed was a necessary sacrifice, as it would be much easier for Rocky and Sabina to escape on their own.

"Please go, Commander in Chief. Please leave as soon as you can! We will cover for you!" The rest of the soldiers also shouted. None of them looked scared at the thought of death. Instead, they appeared calm and focused on the fight and Rocky's survival.

Rocky felt warmth envelop him. His hands were trembling as he held the Frozen Wind Dagger, and it was the first time that he had felt loved and cared for. At such a crucial moment of life and death, his men were willing to save his life at the cost of theirs. But he couldn't just go alone. No, he couldn't leave these people behind.

"Rocky!" Sabina also shouted, which added to the pressure that he was already feeling. No decision could make both sides happy at that point, as Rocky couldn't leave all the remaining soldiers behind, but he couldn't bring them with him either. It was hard for Sabina to decide too, but her priority right then was to keep Rocky safe and sound. Thus, she had to put his safety above all else.

"No, I won't leave without them!" Rocky replied before she could say anything, shaking his head firmly.

Sabina sighed at that. She knew that he couldn't be reasoned with at that moment, but she couldn't let him do as he wished. So, she strengthened her power and threw a strong force of ice to the two master-hands surrounding her, and in the blink of an eye, she dashed to him.

"Don't blame me for this, Rocky," Sabina grumbled and reached out both hands to hit him, counting on the element of surprise to succeed.

Rocky was dumbstruck for a second. He hadn't expected Sabina to take him away by force.

However, things weren't developing in the direction Sabina expected, as something radically unexpected happened.

She felt a mighty force sweep over from behind her, and instantly, she was frozen and unable to move. A cold and menacing laugh echoed in the same direction. "Oh, Woods, is this the woman you're having a crush on?"
