Rebirth of the Prime Dragon Master
Chapter 752 Have A Crush On Him

"Did you take a long trip to come over here, just to say in front of Basil's mourning hall that you lost to him?" Of course, Marcia wouldn't believe a word out of Alyssa's mouth. If it weren't for her, Basil wouldn't have died. After all, it was all because of her that Basil risked his life to help the Crimson Dragon Army.

"I don't know... I just...” In fact, even Alyssa didn't know the reason why she came. When she learned that Rocky was Prince Basil, she suddenly felt upset as if she became an entirely different person. An anxiety rose in her to confirm if Basil really was dead.

"If it weren't for the Timber Deity Empire, Basil wouldn't be dead! You came here just to check if he really is dead, because if he's still alive, you can personally avenge your brother, right?" Marcia angrily spat out and her spiritual power rose higher and higher. Pure anger sharpened her gaze at Alyssa.

"Revenge?" A smothered giggle left Alyssa's lips before she caved in and burst into a fit of laughter. "What are you laughing at?" Marcia asked coldly.

"My brother's not dead. There's no need for me to take revenge.” Alyssa shrugged.

"Not dead? My disciple... she... she witnessed his death with her own eyes..." Marcia's eyes widened when she heard Alyssa's words.

"It seems that you think that in order to keep a good reputation, Basil chose to perish with my brother instead of betraying the Holy Dragon Empire and paying allegiance to the Timber Deity Empire. I did guess that that's what you thought..." Alyssa said indifferently. It was within her expectations before she even arrived that the Holy Dragon Empire thought that Basil died along with her brother.

"Isn't it true...?" Marcia couldn't help but ask. Alyssa's calm was unfeigned, which implied that her brother really might not be dead yet.

"Although I really don't know much about what happened, my brother really is still alive. Basil saved him. My brother said that on the way back to the Timber Deity Empire, they were ambushed by a group of powerful mercenaries. They tried to escape but were caught. Moreover, they seemed to have taken advantage of Basil's weakness..." Alyssa briefly explained.

"So you're saying that Basil didn't die with your brother during the battle, but was killed by others? But how did Basil save your brother? Why did he save him?" Marcia's brows furrowed when she heard Alyssa's words. Even though she didn't really believe her, what she said was actually in line with what she had long suspected. From what she knew of Basil's character, he wouldn't be so stupid as to choose to battle the Timber Deity Empire's prince to death. Moreover, with Basil's strength, even three masters at the Heavenly Stage wouldn't be able to force him enough to do such a reckless thing.

"Although I don't know why he saved my brother, my brother said that the one who hired the mercenaries intended to sway Basil into killing my brother and frame him. But that person never expected that Basil would get my brother to fake his death,” Alyssa sneered. It sounded absurd because it was obvious that Basil and Alyssa's brother were enemies and yet, Basil saved his enemy's life under the nose of mercenaries. It was obviously unbelievable.

"I'm still not sure whether that's true or not. Perhaps your Timber Deity Empire is afraid that our Holy Dragon Empire will seriously take action, and makes up this lie.” Lena snorted from behind Marcia.

"I don't care if you believe it or not. I'm only here to mourn Basil on my brother's behalf. If you want a fight, I'll accept your challenge. But let me finish honoring Basil first." After uttering those words, Alyssa went straight into the mourning hall.

However, Lena had no intention of letting Alyssa get close to it at all and blocked her path.

"Get out of the way, little girl! Don't force me to attack you!" Alyssa snapped and glared down at Lena, her aura flaring around her.

"Humph! You're just at the Divine Stage." No fear showed on Lena's face as she raised her hand and emitted a ray of golden orange light that quickly shot towards Alyssa.

Without even blinking, Alyssa also waved her hand and a strong spiritual power flew out. The two lights collided head-on.

However, Alyssa didn't expect Lena's light to merge with her spiritual power. It turned into a golden orange light barrier that surrounded her on all sides.

It startled Alyssa for a moment before she was hit by a realization. "The power of the spiritual race? Who are you?"

"She's the Witch of our Holy Dragon Empire.” Marcia just smiled when she saw that Alyssa was at a clear disadvantage. Lena and Marcia stayed in the Dragon Master Clan together before, and Lena also had power that Marcia didn't have. Even Alyssa would be hard pressed to beat Lena.

"So you're the Witch of the Holy Dragon Empire. It's said that all the Witches of the Holy Dragon Empire would inherit the power from the Dragon Master Clan and have a special ability. However, as Witches are human beings, even if they inherit the power of the spiritual race, they could only use a small part of it, and it isn't allowed to be casually used. Otherwise, their life span would shorten and they'd prematurely age... I didn't expect that Basil is so popular. He even has the Holy Dragon Empire's general and Witch fighting for him..." Alyssa said calmly, even though she was surprised for a moment after learning Lena's identity. Besides Marcia, even the Witch of the Holy Dragon Empire was at Basil's mourning hall. Both of them obviously had a close relationship with him. After Alyssa spoke, her body's spiritual light suddenly grew even brighter and her aura became stronger.

Bang!

The golden orange light barrier was broken by the strong spiritual light in an instant. Even Lena was forced to take a step back at the invisible spiritual power's impact.

"If I can avenge Basil's death, I'm more than willing to die, not to mention a mere shortening of life span. I can die early and be with him,” Lena firmly and angrily uttered.

"You're so infatuated with him! It is unexpected that the Witch of the Holy Dragon Empire has a crush on him. But isn't that a taboo for the Witch? I learned that it's impossible for a Witch, who possesses the power of the spiritual race, to be in a relationship with a mortal.” A sinister smile cruelly bloomed on Alyssa's lips but she looked a little disappointed too. Even though a glimmer of hope blossomed in her, it was immediately destroyed right before her eyes. She didn't expect that the Witch of the Holy Dragon Empire would be willing to sacrifice everything for revenge. It was clear for all to see that Lena loved Basil deeply and Alyssa couldn't help but envy it, for she had never experienced that kind of love. She was unable to love someone the way Lena loved Basil.
