Chapter 866 Throwing In The Towel


    However, since Tate performed the Beast-through Radiance Curing Skill, the result of the battle


    seemed to have already been fixed. Though it was only a short time since Juey learned surgery from


    Rocky, she had performed impressively in the contest. On the other hand, Tate had been trained on the


    Beast Curing Skill since childhood. With this, it was understandable that he had thepetence and


    ability of more than an average beast curer. Needless to say, he was not at the same level as the other


    beast curers who participated in the Beast Master Contest, including Juey.


    In only half an hour, Tate had managed to beat Juey. Diagnosing and treating with utmost speed, Tate


    surely left the audience in awe. What was more amazing about him was that he didn''t even use his full


    strength! No wonder it was a piece of cake for him to win over Juey.


    Meanwhile, as Juey tasted defeat, she could not help but feel a little depressed. As the match ended,


    she returned to the waiting area of the Cao n with a guilty face.


    "Hey, don''t worry about it. I saw you there, and I think that you''ve done a good job." Luci walked up


    to her and gave her a pat on the arm in an attempt tofort her.


    Hearing this, all the people of the Cao n who were there nodded in agreement. They knew if it


    weren''t for Juey, the whole n would find it difficult to force Tate to go onto the stage and disy his


    incredible strength.


    At that moment, the Cao n had to face a very brutal reality. Although they were still qualified to fight


    again, they could not find and send any beast curer that was on par with Tate''s abilities. Plus, they


    really could not count on Yang any longer. On the other hand, Mary''s strength was not as strong as


    Juey''s; thus the n could not rely on her, either.


    But if the Cao n would not be able to send someone to represent them, then that would mean that


    they had already given up. In other words, the Qi n would im the victory.


    Meanwhile, the entire Cao n was in a quandary on how they could save themselves from a brutal


    loss.


    Luci knew how to solve problems well under pressure. But at that moment, she could not seem to


    make up her mind. As a result, she asked Lucas for his thoughts about the matter.


    "I guess we have no other choice but to send Miss Mary to join thepetition. We all know that she is


    definitely not a match for her opponent. But even so, we have to do this. We are the Cao n, and we


    don''t just give up," Luci suggested. Lucas, however, heaved a sigh, after weighing things out.


    "There''s no need to send anyone over. That will only be a disgrace to us Cao n''s obvious defeat!


    Preserve what pride you have left and just throw in the towel!" scorned Freddy. Obviously, he thought


    that the Cao n would surely lose.


    Upon hearing Freddy''s words, Tod couldn''t help but smile deviously, too.


    Meanwhile, just when the Cao n was busy dealing with their problem, Tate unexpectedly ran away


    from thepetition area and walked towards the waiting area of the Cao n.


    "Luci, just admit it. You have been defeated! No one in your n can match my prowess! You should


    know by now who my master is. However, I have to give it to you. The Cao n is fairly powerful. I


    mean, you even made me participate in thispetition personally... " Tate said with dignity upon


    entering the waiting area. Initially, he had not nned to expose his true power of Beast Curing Skill

    just yet. But because of Juey''s unpredictable performance, he had to go straight out and demolish the


    Cao n himself.


    But as a reply, Luci raised her head and scowled at Tate. At that moment, she realized what he had


    meant in that bamboo grove that day. From the very start, it seemed that the Cao n had never been


    able to escape from the wretched doings of the Qi n.


    "If you lose this time, the Cao n willpletely fall under our control. Soon after, the small ns


    affiliated to you will also have no other choice but to join us. By then, the Cao n''s power will


    definitely sink..." Tate concluded with firm resolution.


    "That''s none of your business. You''re not wee here. Get out of here. Scram!" Luci shouted as


    she red at him. There was no denying that Tate did that to distract and shake the Cao n''s spirit in


    thepetition.


    "Luci, for the sake of our previous friendship, admit defeat. As long as you voluntarily admit defeat


    and are willing to follow the Qi n''s lead, I assure you that your n will not suffer a great fall, at


    least. But of course, before I can make that happen, there is another condition—you must be my


    woman... " dered Tate as he proposed a very vicious and tricky scheme. As a matter of fact, he had


    been obsessed with Luci for years. Unfortunately for him, both of their ns hated each other so


    much, that Luci had a deep-seated loathing for him. Nheless, that did not stop him from getting


    her. In his mind, he believed that once he got Luci''s heart, he could also obtain the Cao n''s


    power. By then, the Qi n would surely be the most powerful n in the country.


    "No fucking way! How dare you!" Suddenly, Tate heard Luci''s very angry reply towards his proposal.


    "You are nothing but a toad trying to swallow a swan! How dare you desire my sister..." Queenie


    sneered.


    At that moment, all the other Cao n members also expressed their fury over his cocky behavior.


    On the other hand, Rocky was the only one who was calm amidst Tate''s smug attitude. He gazed at


    Luci and Tate absentmindedly, as if he was lost in his thought.


    "Think about it again! This is thest opportunity for the Cao n to keep your dignity!" Tate muttered


    spitefully. In fact, he was sure to show the Cao n no mercy if Luci dared deny his request.


    Meanwhile, Luci gritted her teeth, for she knew that there was no way that he was just bluffing. The


    Qi n''s primary intention was to rece the Cao n and be the most powerful n in the


    Timber Deity Empire. Therefore, to make this happen, the Qi n had to suppress the Cao n and


    hinder its recovery. Moreover, if the Cao n lost the Beast Master Contest, then the Qi n would


    have the opportunity to do everything beyond their imagination to repress the Cao n.


    "You bastard..." yelled Queenie. At that moment, she was about to burst in anger. She could no longer


    contain her rage anymore that she wanted to teach Tate a lesson. But all of a sudden, a figure walked


    up to Luci and said, "My dear Luci, how could you love such a man with this self-esteem? You


    shouldn''t have such a bad taste."


    Seeing this figure gave Tate and the members of the Cao n quite a shock. This was because the


    person who addressed Luci affectionately was no other than Rocky.


    Just like everyone else, Luci was also caught off guard. However, when she turned to look at Rocky,


    she noticed the calmness and confidence shing in his eyes, which made her feel secured. After


    shaking things off, she responded subconsciously, "He always harasses me. I won''t ept a man like


    him even for free, over my dead body! There is no way he canpete with you..."


    "Really? Then this is only happening because of your iparable beauty and charm, my dear


    Luci!" As he spoke, he stretched out one hand and wrapped it around Luci''s waist. Soon after, he


    raised her chin ambiguously with his other hand.


    "You..." said Luci shyly as she blushed. For a moment, she didn''t know what to do, nor did she even


    resist Rocky''s actions toward her. At that moment, she let Rocky take the lead and do whatever he


    wanted with her. Luci felt that she was in a trance, as if she could not take her eyes off him out of


    sheer attraction.
