Rocky shot a look at Moira who was in the middle of a fierce battle with Rex. He hesitated for a moment, but then decided to follow the mysterious figure.
Rocky soon disappeared in a flash, as well. Soon, he arrived at a very remote place in the Dragon Master Clan, where he caught sight of the figure in the black robe.
At that time, the figure suddenly stopped, as though it sensed someone's presence.
Rocky stopped abruptly and hid himself, wanting to observe the movements of the figure.
A moment later, a light flashed and another figure appeared, landing in front of the figure in the black robe.
"Go and report to our patriarch that Rex is already in a decisive battle with the Mu Clan. There is no room to let him change his mind. Now is the best opportunity to defeat the whole Dragon Master Clan in one fell swoop," the black-robed figure said to his companion.
The other figure nodded immediately then disappeared in the blink of an eye.
As soon as the black-robed figure finished speaking, he suddenly turned to face the direction where Rocky was hiding. "Who's there?" he called out coldly.
"You truly are one of the spiritual masters of the Dragon Master Clan." Seeing that he'd been found out, Rocky revealed himself.
"You—!" The figure was shocked when he realized who it was.
"Reginald, we meet again." Rocky smiled evilly.
"How dare you appear here alone? You are courting death!" A ferocious look appeared on his face. Last time, Rocky defeated him so humiliatingly, that even his fellow clansmen laughed at his loss. It was no wonder he still held a grudge against Rocky. If it weren't for everything that was going then, he would have exhausted every means to hunt Rocky down.
"Where's Alston?" Rocky asked bluntly, eyeing Reginald. The reason why he came to the Dragon Master Clan with Moira this time was not only to bring the spiritual treasure to help her, but also to ask Reginald the whereabouts of Alston. Alston's soul was taken away by Reginald, so the rebirth of Alston with the help of the spiritual race being's body was absolutely contingent on him. Rocky figured Reginald would know where Alston was now.
"Have you two met each other already? Alston seems to be too anxious these days..." A strange look appeared on Reginald's face. Although he knew that Alston had once led an army to attack the Holy Dragon Empire and almost broke the border of the empire, he did not expect that Alston and Rocky had met already.
Back then, he planned to use Alston as a pawn in dealing with the Holy Dragon Empire. But he didn't expect that he'd lose control of Alston after he was reborn. Alston now took orders from that patriarch. However, none of that mattered now that Rocky had come to him in person. This was the perfect opportunity to exact his revenge. Moreover, he figured Rocky would come, with the spiritual treasure of the Dragon Master Clan in tow, since Moira wasn't strong enough to finish off Rex on her own. So now, all he needed to do was capture Rocky and keep him alive, but just barely enough to have easy access to the spiritual treasure. As long as he could get his hands on the spiritual treasure, the possibilities for his leading of the clan were endless.
At the thought of this, a sinister smile appeared on his face. He stared at Rocky hungrily, eyes shining like a starving wolf.
