The Medallion novel Chapter 1114

"What the hell is wrong with you? Why didn't you tell me that the Dragon Master Clan imprisoned His Majesty? Of course, I should know about this! Are you worried that I might have ulterior motives?" Bryant yelled angrily. With narrowed eyes, he stared furiously at Rocky and the others.

"Uh, don't get us wrong, Chief Bryant. It's just that this matter is of great importance that we have to be extra cautious all the time. We can't risk leaving any trace of mistake with this one," Rocky explained in a serious and polite tone.

"Which brings me to the more important question: how did you know about that, Chief Bryant? Where did you hear about this?" Marcia raised her eyebrow and asked in confusion.

"After Alston's death, Priest Dean approached me and told me everything Alston had done. He told me about the fact that Alston tried to kill His Majesty, the imprisonment of His Majesty in the Dragon Master Clan, as well as the purpose of the Dragon Master Clan," Bryant said with a dejected look on his face.

"Wait, back up. Priest Dean? If he came to you personally to tell you all about this, then I don't think that he just wanted to have a little chitchat," Rocky mumbled. At that moment, he knew something was fishy—Priest Dean must have done something behind his back again.

"A dog without a master will certainly want to find another master. Unfortunately, I am not the one he wants," Bryant replied obscurely.

"Like what they say, a leopard cannot change its spots," Sheridan remarked as he shook his head from side to side.

"So, when I heard that Prince Basil went to the royal family's forbidden area, I already knew that he was going to save His Majesty. I am here to have a conversation with him, but I didn't expect to hear all about your intricate plan to save His Majesty." Regaining his composure, Bryant explained calmly.

"So, does that mean you are willing to help us?" Rocky asked as he fixed his eyes on Bryant.

"The Ximen Clan has been loyal to the royal family for countless generations. Now that His Majesty is in trouble, it will be an honor to help you save him," said Bryant, as he puffed his chest out to show his bravery and loyalty to the royal family.

"Perhaps, there is some hope with your help. And for that, I am eternally grateful." Marcia nodded in agreement.

"Grandpa, I want to go with you. Please, let me. I promise not to cause any trouble." Shirley requested Bryant.

"Well...I am not so sure about that." Obviously, Bryant was having doubts letting his grandchild accompany them on the mission. After all, he knew that the rescue operation was extremely dangerous. Although Shirley was not weak, her strength was only capable of protecting herself at most.

"While we would be delighted to have you with us, this operation is very dangerous, Miss Shirley. You'd better stay home," Marcia said in a serious tone.

"I am just as strong as them. If they all can go, then why can't I? It's unfair!" Shirley protested as she pointed her finger at Sabina and Lucilla.

"What do you think, Chief Bryant? This is your call," Rocky asked. He took a glimpse at the begging Shirley, and then bounced his gaze to Sabina and Lucilla. At that moment, he didn't really know what to say.

"If you don't object, then I will let her go with us. She needs to have more practical training," Bryant said after thinking for a moment.

"All right, then." Rocky had no objections whatsoever. After all, it seemed that Bryant was willing to let his granddaughter go with them.

After discussion, Rocky ordered Lena to go back to the Palace City and temporarily oversee the state affairs. Now that the Holy Dragon Empire had no emperor, it was necessary to have someone lead the nation. If Lena, the Witch of the Holy Dragon Empire, disappeared for a few days, panic would surely engulf the entire empire.
