The Medallion novel Chapter 1943

Alex sighed with a forlorn air about her. She felt powerless in the face of Vivian's grief, and she didn't know how to comfort her.

Just as the cloying silence became too much for them, a great splash suddenly erupted from the pool close to the crystal palace as a figure shot out. The greenish water spattered everywhere, and some dissolved into green mist.

Hearing the noise, both Alex and Vivian immediately looked over, and their faces brightened with a look of joy.

The figure was none other than Rocky!

It turned out that before the crystal palace was completely sealed, Rocky arrived at the pool where the devil spirit had been staying. He figured that the pool had some kind of passage that led outside, so he took the plunge.

Just as Rocky expected, he soon found a hole under the pool, and the moment he swam out of the crevice, the entire thing collapsed.

He swam along the passage, looking for the exit before he finally found it and came out.

At the flip side, the first things that Rocky sensed were Alex's and Vivian's auras, so he promptly headed in their direction.

Both of the women were overjoyed to see that he had survived after all.

"Is the devil spirit sealed?" Alex asked in a worried tone.

"Sort of..." Rocky had actually killed the devil spirit, but he didn't want to let her know, since it would be too troublesome to explain.

"I'm glad to hear that." Alex nodded and let out a relieved sigh.

"We should find a place to heal Vivian first." The wounds on Vivian's body were still bleeding sluggishly. Rocky took one look at her, picked her up, and carried her in his arms.

Then, Alex summoned the Ice Phoenix, and the three of them flew off to the distance.

It didn't take long before the trio came upon a primeval forest. However, an invisible force prohibited the Ice Phoenix from entering, and it could no longer fly with them.

So, they had no choice but to walk. They soon found a cave in the forest, which Rocky deemed safe enough to occupy for now.

"Alex, stay outside and guard the cave. I'll heal her first," Rocky directed Alex, his face impassive and serious.

With a decisive nod, Alex did as he asked, and walked out of the cave.

He then laid Vivian on the nearest flat surface, checked the extent of her injuries, and planned out how he should proceed. Her condition seemed worse than he initially thought. The devil spirit's power was still in her body, and it had begun corroding her meridians.

"I have to force all the devil spirit's power out of your body. However, I'm afraid you may have to expose yourself for me to do that," Rocky told her bluntly. He had to use the Skill of Magic Needle, which meant he would have to inject needles all over Vivian's body, and that would cleanse her body of the devil spirit's power.

After hearing this, Vivian didn't hesitate to take her clothes off, revealing her curvaceous and well-built figure.

"I understand. Please do what you have to." Vivian's voice sounded a little hesitant, which made the situation all the more tempting.

However, Rocky didn't let that affect him. He would never do anything improper. At most, his eyes would linger more than necessary, but he wouldn't force himself on her.

With the Skill of Magic Needle, Rocky concentrated on healing Vivian's wounds.

The night passed quickly as he toiled.
