Rocky waved his hand and the hairpin soon flew into the woman's hand. He then asked, "You are the princess of the Timber Deity Empire. How could you be threatened by a flower hairpin?" A smile crept on his face, as his amusement made itself known.
The woman in front of him was Alyssa.
As a matter of fact, before they went back to the Qi Clan, they had made an appointment to meet here once the matter was over.
"This flower hairpin belonged to my mother. I thought I had lost it." Alyssa rolled her eyes at Rocky and gently touched the flower hairpin in her hand.
"I took it off when I was healing you," said Rocky, raising his eyebrows.
"You know, I intended to let the Cao Clan win, so you did not need to threaten me with the flower hairpin..." Alyssa suddenly spoke up, raising her head, as she leveled a fierce glare at Rocky.
"But aren't you on the Qi Clan's side? If you had told me earlier, I wouldn't have taken it out..." Rocky was a little surprised by her words since he thought that Alyssa would still take the Qi Clan's side. He only came up with this plan with that assumption, as he had never expected her to side with the Cao Clan.
"Why should I tell you? Should I tell you everything I do?" Alyssa reproached.
But Rocky was not discouraged by her temper, and he asked bluntly, "Did you side with the Cao Clan because of me?"
"Who the hell do you think you are? Why would I do it because of you?" she muttered in a disdainful voice, frowning sternly at him.
"What do you want from me? I think we'd better be honest with each other. That will be better for both of us in the long run," Rocky finally asked after a moment of hesitation.
"Then tell me first, how did you get the evil power in your body?" Alyssa frowned at Rocky's question, but she immediately recovered. In return, she answered with a question of her own.
"I can't tell you that," answered Rocky. The evil power in his body was from the Holy Dragon Bead, which was a fact that should never be known, especially to the princess of the Timber Deity Empire. She was not his enemy, but she was by no means his friend.
"Who sealed the power for you? It's not something that an ordinary spirit manipulator can do, and this sealing technique is also a secret technique of the spirit race," Alyssa probed deeper.
"You should know her. You had a big fight!" Finally, Rocky decided to let some things slip. Anyway, it would not make any difference to him if Alyssa found out that Marcia was the one who sealed his evil power. On the other hand, if he didn't say anything, he would never find out what her purpose was!
"Marcia?" Alyssa guessed as her frown deepened even more.
Rocky nodded but did not volunteer any more information.
