Rebirth of the Prime Dragon Master novel Chapter 820

When the sun was about to rise, and the lights were at their darkest, the Cao mansion was suddenly plunged into chaos. The night had been quiet and serene just a few seconds ago, but the sound of quick footsteps and low whispers broke the peace.

In front of the Magnificent Hall, some Cao Clan disciples who were on night patrol had found an almost unconscious figure tied up with rope. When they came close to investigate, they were shocked to see that it was the chief of the Xiao Clan, Raef.

But this was not the only astonishing thing. There was a piece of paper on Raef, and written on it were the words that stunned all the Cao Clan members. It said, "Prince Woods is missing!"

One of those disciples who were on duty immediately reported this to Lucilla. The moment she received the news, she rushed to the Magnificent Hall herself to find out what was happening.

"Chief..." Once she got there, she only found the disciples who had found Raef, and they cried out her name at once.

"Where is chief Raef?" Lucilla asked urgently, and her face was tight with worry.

"We have taken him to the inside, chief!" one of them responded.

Lucilla nodded at this and immediately proceeded to the hall where she found Raef on a chair. The disciples had untied him already and left him to rest, but he hadn't regained consciousness yet.

"Chief, here is the note that we found on chief Raef." At this time, a disciple handed over a piece of paper to his chief.

Lucilla's face darkened as she read the writing on the paper. She thought that it could be a trick, but she was also concerned about the one who had knocked Raef out. The fact that the person was able to knock him out and disappear without a trace showed that whoever he was must have been quite powerful. Besides, she wondered why the mysterious person did this to Raef instead of someone else.

The words on the paper took her attention, and she couldn't bear to neglect it, not if there was a possibility that it was true. She immediately motioned for one of the Cao Clan disciples to come closer and said, "You, go and find Master Lucas and take him to the Magnificent Hall. The rest of you, stay here and keep an eye on chief Raef. Make sure that the contents of this paper remain a secret. If anyone of you leaks one word from this paper, you'll be sorry!"

Hearing this, all the disciples present lowered their heads immediately. None of them dared even to take a breath for fear of making a sound.

Once she had given out further instructions, Lucilla hurried out of the Magnificent Hall, and then she rushed to Woods' place to check if what the paper said was true. Of course, she hoped that this was only a trick, but if it was true, the Cao Clan would be in serious trouble, especially if it became public knowledge.

If she was to keep this a secret so that it would not cause unnecessary chaos, she needed to practice utmost caution and discretion, thus she brought only two personal maidservants with her, as she traveled to the wing house where Woods rested.

Once she arrived at the wing house, Lucilla found that there were only two maidservants outside the place, waiting and guarding.

Those two maidservants bowed respectfully as soon as they saw her.

"Have you seen the prince since last night? Did he go out?" she asked instantly.

The two maidservants shook their heads at once.

"Did you hear anything?" she continued.
