Rebirth of the Prime Dragon Master -
Chapter 542 Seize the Fruits
Right after Sabina and Rocky got separated from each other, Sabina did not approach the peculiar light because she feared that Rocky might be in a dangerous situation. Instead, she went back and traced the same path she took in search for Rocky's trail. Unfortunately, she was not able to catch up with him, but she saw someone else. Sheehan, who was trapped by several wild spirit- manipulated beasts, was not powerful enough to defeat these beasts nor did he have the energy and power to get rid of them on his own.
Considering that Sabina had been acquainted with Sheehan right when they were still in the main camp, she immediately recognized him. However, she realized that something was greatly wrong. She knew that Sheehan had been with some members of the Elite Regiment when she met him not long ago. If that were the case, then how could Sheehan appear in front of her alone in such a short span of time?
Moreover, Sheehan's aura was completely different from how it was before. During that time, his aura indicated that he was at the Supernal Stage. However, the Sheehan in front of Sabina was only roughly at the eighth grade of the Heavenly Stage, which was obviously very strange! What the hell had happened to Sheehan? She knew that she must figure it out as soon as possible.
Therefore, Sabina helped Sheehan to chase away the wild spirit-manipulated beasts so that they could both find out what was going on. After all, having to deal with the wild beasts didn't cost her a lot of time for the beasts were very shrewd. Knowing that they could not defeat her, they just all backed out and withdrew their threat.
Sheehan, on the other hand was completely surprised and was very happy that someone was there to help him out. After being rescued, Sheehan suddenly recognized that the one who helped him was Sabina, and told her something out of the ordinary.
As it turned out, shortly after Sheehan successfully led a few members of the Elite Regiment to the Myriad Beasts Ground, he was raided, robbed, and even had his clothes stolen.
It would explain why the “Sheehan’ in the Supernal Stage that Sabina and Rocky had met before was the bogus.
But the question still remained the same— who was the fake Sheehan and why did he do it?
At that time, Sabina had a lot of questions in her mind. However, she sensed that something wrong was about to happen. Worried that such an unfortunate event might happen soon, Sabina, together with Sheehan, dashed to the direction of the peculiar light at full speed.
When they arrived at the hall, it was in complete chaos. Spirit manipulators at the Heavenly Stage were at war and kept pushing the hall to the point that it could collapse at any second.
However, none of those spirit manipulators had been able to approach the Sea Blue Magic Jade which was on the altar. Although the precious and rare jade was already within their reach, no one had been able to get it for the competition was so high that they were all after the same thing, and they wanted it all to themselves.
Right at this very moment, a figure appeared at the entrance of the hall. There the mysterious figure had black and red flame flashing all over his body. Holding a curved black Flaming Blade in his hand, he rushed through the group of fighting spirit manipulators in the speed of lightning, and then headed towards the Sea Blue Magic Jade.
At that moment, everyone was at a loss for words as no one had expected that someone would make such a bold move as to take advantage of the fight in order to obtain the Sea Blue Magic Jade. By the time when the Heavenly Stage masters realized what was happening, in front of them, the mysterious figure with the Evil Flame was already very close to the Sea Blue Magic Jade, much more that he was at the brink of getting his hands on it.
Stunned, the fake Sheehan was very furious. "Stop that guy!" He shouted to the members of the Elite Regiment.
As soon as the four members of the Elite Regiment heard the order, they quickly dropped their opponents and hurriedly went to attack the mysterious figure that was about to take the treasure. However, the mysterious figure knew this was going to happen. In defense, he waved his black Flaming Blade and several half-moon shaped blades appeared successively. The spiritual blades whizzed out and forced a blood path from the crowd. Taking this chance, the mysterious figure passed through those spirit manipulators quickly and smoothly, without any barriers.
Meanwhile, the spirit manipulators at the high grade of the Heavenly Stage were in the brawl when they noticed the figure. Coming back to their senses, they immediately stopped what they were doing and dashed toward the figure to stop him.
Suddenly, nearly all of them saw the man with the strange Evil Flame. Like a bird spreading its wings, he jumped up into the air and flew past the altar. And just like that, the Sea Blue Magic Jade let out a dazzling light and then left the altar.
Erica had been observing the fight among those spirit manipulators at various stages. As she was preoccupied with watching the bout, she didn't expect that a mysterious figure would suddenly appear out of nowhere and take away the Sea Blue Magic Jade while everyone was not paying attention.
However, she didn't think that it was a brilliant idea. A person who could obtain the Sea Blue Magic Jade first might not be able to bring it away afterwards. This was because once he got the jade, he already became the enemy of all of the spirit manipulators.
It was not long after Erica gave a quick response to the situation at hand. Like a dazzling light, she dashed and followed the mysterious figure. She was so powerful that it was as if she was a thunderstorm—quick as lightning and loud as thunder.
Simultaneously, Erica, along with four of the members of the Elite Regiment, and several top-grade masters of the Heavenly Stage surrounded the mysterious figure.
As soon as other masters of the Heavenly Stage saw that the Sea Blue Magic Jade had been taken away, they immediately stopped fighting and glared at the mysterious figure. Apart from that, they felt immense regret for their carelessness which allowed the guy to snatch the jade while all of them were off guard.
Meanwhile, the mysterious person turned around and dashed towards Erica. Just as he was about to approach her, he suddenly yelled, as if the message was directed to her, "I know where Tasha is!" Erica, after hearing this, was stunned. Stopping on her tracks, the mysterious figure brushed past her.
However, before the mysterious figure passed through, several phoenix spirit manipulators from the Magic Phoenix Empire had suddenly appeared in front of him, forcing him to stop.
"I knew it would not be that easy.” The mysterious figure then stopped, shook his head and smiled with composure. Suddenly, he removed the Evil Flame from his body and finally revealed his true identity.
To everyone's surprise, the mysterious figure was no other than Rocky himself.
It turned out that when Rocky arrived at the hall, he saw that the spirit manipulators at the Heavenly Stage were already fighting. However, the phoenix spirit manipulators did not join the bout and had not launched any attacks yet, which was how he got to the Sea Blue Magic Jade so easily and figured out an escape plan. Anyhow, he still had Tasha in his hands. But at least, Erica and other phoenix spirit manipulators wouldn't pose a threat to him. Instead, they might even become his "helpers".
Erica came over to him at once as soon as Rocky stopped running. She kept her spiritual power in her palms, which made her palms look like a thunder blade. Pointing her palms at Rocky, she then shouted, "Did you just say you know where Tasha is?" She had been worried about Tasha since the day she disappeared in such a dangerous place. Once she heard what Rocky had said about Tasha's whereabouts, she immediately stopped her original plan of seizing the jade from him. After all, Tasha was so important to her, but if she found Rocky had lied to her, then she would not spare him mercy!
"Yes, that's right!" Rocky nodded in an aloof manner.
Upon hearing Rocky's confirmation, the other phoenix spirit manipulators also turned their eyes to Rocky, doubting that what he said was true.
"Don't believe him, Erica. He could be just buying some time for himself. Come on, let him hand over the Sea Blue Magic Jade first,” said one of the phoenix spirit manipulators. She refused to believe Rocky's claim and quickly reminded Erica.
Narrowing her eyes, Erica asked Rocky, "if what you're saying is true, then do you have any proof?" A smile appeared on Rocky's face. Then, he unwrapped the handkerchief on his left shoulder and said, "This. This is the evidence.” He then sent the handkerchief through his spiritual power gliding into the air until it reached to Erica.
Erica then took the handkerchief from him. Stunned, she was shocked to her core when she recognized that it was, without a shadow of a doubt, Tasha's handkerchief. Not long ago, Erica made two handkerchiefs, one of which was beautifully embroidered and was the one given to Tasha
"I can't believe this. It's really hers. Tell me, where is she?" Erica asked with a sharp tone to her voice. Not hearing anything in response, Erica then raised her head as she gave Rocky a cold and murderous stare. In her mind, she suspected that Rocky had deliberately hidden Tasha so that he could use her to force them to help him.
"Tell us where she is, or we'll teach you a lesson," one of the phoenix spirit manipulators threatened Rocky.
"I can't tell you now,” Rocky replied with an evil smile. Rocky was not that stupid. “Tasha is my precious chip. If I tell them her whereabouts, then everything would be in vain, he thought.
