Chapter 819 Who Is He


    Just then, Woods became delirious. He started muttering iprehensible words.


    Mary nced at Juey with a sense of guilt.


    "Juey, don''t me me. I''m sorry but I have to sacrifice you for the future of the Xiao n!" Mary


    unfolded her guilt as she left Juey beside Woods.


    When Woods became conscious, his eyes flickered like burning mes.


    Juey remained unconscious because of the frame-up from her father and sister. Suddenly, a ghost-like


    figure entered the room. It reached out its arm and attacked the vital point on Woods'' chest to knock


    him out. It then picked up a quilt and covered Juey with it.


    ''I still can''t believe Raef had the audacity to target the prince. I''m sure he''s heard of the prince before,


    otherwise he wouldn''t have been so daring. He even used his own daughter! And Mary actually agreed


    to it. She is indeed a cold hearted woman. If I knew this earlier, I shouldn''t have rescued her from


    Conrad, '' the figure thought. The figure was no one else but Rocky. He''d been observing Woods


    secretly when he attended the banquet. Since then, he had also watched Mary''s every move. He saw


    Mary send Woods to his room. Rocky figured Raef was behind it, although he didn''t expect that his


    actions would be so low. He intended to threaten Woods with this, just so the Xiao n could gain


    reputation.


    Above all, Raef shouldn''t have taken advantage of Juey. She was already half an apprentice of Rocky.


    She also looked like Sue, to whom Rocky felt indebted. Every time he looked at Juey, he remembered


    Sue, so he could not help but treat her like his sister as well. Rocky couldn''t let Raef use her to achieve


    his evil goal. Soon, he''d suffer the consequences of Rocky''s rage.


    ''Woods, if you''re so clever, howe you were fooled so easily? You were too gentle and modest. You


    gave Raef a chance to exploit your kindness. But this could be a disaster to the Xiao n if the truth


    was exposed, '' Rocky whispered to himself. Then, he looked at the unconscious Woods and continued,


    ''Perhaps I need to take you somewhere to sober up.'' Then he covered him with a quilt before leaving.

    The peak of the mountain was quiet and cold in the deep of the night.


    Woods was woken up by a gust of cold wind. He shivered and slowly opened his eyes. His


    surroundings were covered by darkness. He could trace out shadows of tall trees around him. When he


    did not recognize where he was, he sat up immediately. To his surprise, he was on the top of a tilted


    cliff surrounded by a dense forest. Only the moon above him gave him light.


    At the end of the cliff, he saw a tall figure with his hands sped behind his back.


    "Hey," he called out, "who are you?" Woods stood up at once and looked at the man closely.


    "You were unconscious for a while, Prince Woods. Don''t you remember being drugged by the Love


    Powder?" the figure replied with a cold smile.


    Suddenly, the memory flooded Woods'' hazy mind. He suddenly remembered the difort he had


    gone through before losing consciousness. It turned out that it was because of the Love Powder.


    "How do I know you''re not the one who poisoned me?" Woods seethed through his teeth. He was


    almost sure it was the man''s fault. There was no other reason for him to bring him in the mountains. He


    was curious to know who the man was. If he was able to carry him out of the Cao mansion secretly,


    then he must have been powerful. What he couldn''t figure out was how he was drugged by the Love


    Powder to begin with. He didn''t remember eating anything except the wine at the banquet. The Cao


    n was careful. No one had the chance to put the Love Powder into his wine. Woods was confused.


    "If I hadn''t taken you here, you would be used of indecent assault on women tomorrow," the man


    teased.


    "So you saved me? But why did you do that? Do we know each other?" Woods asked, his eyes fixed


    on the man''s back. Suddenly, he realized that the man was quite familiar. His manner and silhouette


    reminded him of someone. Even his voice sounded familiar.


    "Maybe," the man replied.


    Woods was itching to see the man''s face. He had an idea in mind but it was too absurd.


    He thought it was someone he knew from the past, but the man was dead so he quickly dismissed the


    idea. However, he doubted that there was any other man in the world who carried the same manner


    and vibe as the man he knew. All he wanted was to confirm who the man was.


    "Stop. Don''te near me," the man muttered as if he figured out what Woods was thinking.


    Woods froze. His brows furrowed and, with a confused look on his face, he asked, "Who the hell are


    you?"


    "Do you really want to know?" There was a small chuckle in the man''s voice.


    "Have we met before? You remind me of someone I know. But he''s dead now and it''s impossible for


    him toe back to life." Woods shook his head dejectedly.


    "Perhaps God is just making fun of people. Nothing is impossible, after all," the figure mocked.


    "Actually, I wanted to spark some memories with you. But I have to deal with something first. If you


    want to know who I am, return to the Cao mansion. You''ll have to do it alone so you better wait until


    dawn. This mountain is crawling with beasts. It''s dangerous for you to go out now." After that, the figure


    disappeared silently like a ghost.


    Woods felt even more confused. As he stood alone in the mountain, he wanted to know the man''s


    identity, so he had decided to start his journey to the Cao mansion. His solitude made him think that


    maybe it was all just an illusion. Perhaps his mind was ying tricks on him, or that the person was just


    making an amusement out of him. Either way, he had to return to the Cao mansion.
