Rebirth of the Prime Dragon Master novel Chapter 968

"Did the altar just self-destruct? Or maybe it finally collapsed because of the ancient spiritual beast that had been here for all these years." The female voice behind the curtain hesitated for a moment after Alyssa spoke, and she sounded a little surprised. She asked hesitantly, "Where is the ancient spiritual beast now?"

"It fell into the abyss together with the altar," Alyssa replied and cast a quick glance at Rocky at the same time.

"Did it?" She sounded even more puzzled. The altar had been there for a long time, and yet nothing happened to it. So what prompted its self-destruction so abruptly? It was a question that she could not figure out.

Seeing her confusion, Alyssa nodded her head solemnly. Although she felt sorry for lying to her grandma, she had no choice in the matter. She didn't want to get Rocky involved, so it was worth the risk.

"Then, I will report to the patriarch what I heard from you." The confusion in her voice was gone to Alyssa's relief. It seemed that she trusted Alyssa enough to believe whatever she said. Alyssa was both pleased and wracked with guilt.

"Grandma, do you have any advice for me? What should I do?" Alyssa asked, blinking her beautiful eyes innocently.

"Young man, can you wait outside for a moment?" The voice behind the curtain said to Rocky this time.

Rocky shrugged his shoulders casually, but he threw a questioning glance at Alyssa. When she inclined her head in a subtle nod, he turned around and walked out.

"My dear, I have checked all the secret manuals of the spiritual race, but I haven't found any other way to remove the curse. I'm afraid that it is the only way..." The voice from behind the curtain trailed off and released a sorrowful sigh.

"Is that the only way?" Alyssa's eyes darkened. If that was the only way, she would have to make a decision soon.

"My dear, please do what your heart tells you to do. Don't push yourself too hard. It might not be a good thing for you to become a member of the spiritual race. No one can promise you anything!" The voice spoke in a soft and comforting tone as if it was a mother pacifying her child.

"Are you saying that I should just live my life as a normal human woman? I don't think so. You know I can't do that!" Alyssa replied with a bitter smile.

"It's hard to say, my dear. Some time ago, you believed that no one in this world can remove the curse on you, didn't you? But do you see what faith had planned for you? You finally found him. What's more, I can see that you care about him very much." The voice behind the curtain seemed to see through whatever was happening between Alyssa and Rocky, but of course, Alyssa was deep in denial.

She snorted and stamped her foot heavily in protest, thankful that the light was dim enough to hide her flushed cheeks. "Please, grandma! Who cares about him? Not me!"

"Whether you care about him or not, you are the one who knows it best. Do not deny your heart, my dear. If he is really the one in your destiny, maybe you can give up everything that you care about now, all for a beautiful future with him... Who knows! Remember my words. Follow your own heart! But now, it is time for you to go back." The voice behind the curtain sounded distant, as it hinted Alyssa to leave. It was as if she had turned her attention elsewhere now.

"Okay. I'm leaving, grandma. I'll come back to see you again when I can." Without saying anything more, Alyssa bowed before the curtain respectfully and left.

After walking out of the tree house, Alyssa was met with the sight of Rocky, who was standing outside with his hands behind his back and looking into the distance. It seemed that he was lost in his thoughts.
