Rebirth of the Prime Dragon Master novel Chapter 720

"Ha-ha, I knew you would say that. Anyway, it does not matter. You will have a lot of time to think about staying in the Timber Deity Empire. I'm sure of it. If not, how could I offer you such a thing?" Woods said patiently.

"Aren't you afraid that when I'll find an opportunity to escape after you let my friends go?" Rocky asked seriously to break Woods' confidence.

"The problem is, where are you going? I have already ordered my people to spread the news that you have betrayed the Holy Dragon Empire to join the great Timber Deity Empire. Soon, the whole Holy Dragon Empire will come to know you as a traitor and will never have you back!" Woods had expected Rocky to refuse, so he had devised an alternative way to prepare for it.

"Of course, in order to be safe, upon arriving at the Timber Deity Empire, I will have to ask my beloved sister to seal your spiritual power. I'm sorry, but I have to do so," Woods said honestly with a smile. He had long planned for Rocky to submit to him by hook or by crook. He never desired to have Rocky's strength; instead, he wanted Rocky's mind power. Thus, Woods had no problem with sealing his captive's spiritual power.

"It seems that you have planned it all out," Rocky said through gritted teeth. If Sabina and his other friends were not still in Woods' hands, he would have already knocked him unconscious.

"Hey! Don't forget that I saved your life. You can call me your savior from now on. Of course, Moon Fox has helped in the rescue as well," Woods said boastfully.

"Moon Fox? That strange but powerful spirit-manipulated beast?" Rocky asked. He was sober at that time, so he remembered what happened vividly. However, he did not understand why Alyssa's spirit-manipulated beast would go against her master's will and save him instead. In fact, it had saved him from danger more than once.

"A guardian beast, to be exact," Woods replied.

"What? A guardian beast?" Rocky had never heard of anything about a guardian beast. Guardian beasts could only be owned by the spiritual race. They were different from the spirit-manipulated beasts since they were much stronger and had more abilities.

Even a high-level spiritual beast such as the Rainbow Glow Unicorn would be common if compared to a guardian beast of the spiritual race. For humans, it was difficult to imagine how powerful a guardian beast could be.

"By the way, keep in mind that my sister has decided to let you off the hook. I don't know why she didn't kill you, but consider it a generous favor," Woods said as he tried to recall the situation at that time. If Alyssa was determined to take actions then, Rocky would had been dead.

"Or maybe she just wanted to do a good deed to credit her in the next world!" Rocky responded with a cold sneer.

Little did he know that the real reason why Alyssa hesitated to kill him was because he was destined to break the curse seal on her body. Moreover, the two of them had a strange connection with each other.

"Anyway, you are here now, safe and sound. Don't you ever disrespect her. And please don't call her an old woman anymore! You know how she is with such labels." Woods tried to be serious, but he himself burst into laughter. No one ever dared to call his sister old, and Alyssa was indeed pissed off with Rocky for that insult.

"Hey, I was already too polite to a vicious woman like her," Rocky said repulsively. He hated her very much.

"My sister is not a bad person, you know. She just grew up in a hostile environment. That place is very cruel in such a way that if you show mercy, you will be killed by the others for being weak. That is why she tends to be a bit harsh." Woods had heard of many horrible things that Alyssa had to experience while she was still in the spiritual race. Thus, he knew why she had the propensity to be cruel and unscrupulous at times. He had known many kind-hearted people that turned into murderous devils in order to survive that place.
