Chapter 935 Birthday Banquet


    Rocky immediately left the Cao n for the ancient temple in the capital''s suburb. Not long after, he


    arrived at the ancient temple that had been turned into ruins because of the Moon Fox unleashing its


    eminent power there.


    Flying to the ruins, Rocky immediately raised his palm. The Evil me shone brightly, creating a


    sizeable hole in the center of the ruins. He then summoned a Dark Heaven Insect. After it dug a few


    meters deep into the ground, he found the spiritual cave where the spiritual power gathered and then


    buried the crystal rudiment inside.


    Once done, Rocky returned to the Cao n to continue his gic research. The tworvae from the


    Dark Heaven Insect he''d been using for gic experiments had begun its physiological change. His

    first discovery was that the speed of their growth had obviously increased. In just a few days, they had


    had a growth spurt, and they behaved differently from otherrvae. In other words, the gic


    modification had worked.


    However, Rocky could not predict what the end result would be.


    Three days passed quickly and Rocky spent them in peace. Though, Alyssa had arrived on the second


    day to help him merge the seal and left. Strangely, she hadn''t stayed to practice together. Of course,


    that made him a little confused, but the less trouble the better. In any case, once the appointed time


    arrived, he would return to the Holy Dragon Empire.


    However, without his practice sessions with Alyssa, bonding the evil spiritual power in the third grade


    had slowed down immensely. Rocky was on the verge of breaking through to the Supernal Stage.


    The Supernal Stage was a very important stage for a spirit maniptor. Many were forced to stop there


    because they couldn''t ovee it and reach the Supernal Stage. Therefore, he''d need to prove he


    was better than that.


    Night fell with stars scattered across the sky like diamonds.


    At this moment, the entire Cao n was brightly lit and lively, with guests wandering around.


    Today was Luci''s birthday, and the mansion had naturally been bustling with people since early in the


    morning. Every n in the Timber Deity Empire, including those famous ns, dignitaries, and some


    royal members, had sent gifts.


    As the banquet was held in the evening, all the prominent people in the capital came to congratte


    her in person. The chiefs of several big ns except the Qi n had alsoe in person. In addition,


    many members of the royal family were also present to show their great respect for the Cao n.


    Such a scene would never have been possible before. Winning the Beast Master Contest and


    defeating the Qi n had stabilized its position as the number one n in this country. So it was only


    natural that every n would fawn on them again. If they''d suffered another defeat by the Qi n, this


    scene would have been entirely different.


    In the Magnificent Hall, Lucas was warmly greeting the major ns'' chiefs, as well as many prestige


    figures and royal members of the Timber Deity Empire. Although these people seemed to put up a


    good front, it was obvious they were all scheming. Some wanted to curry favor with the Cao n and


    others wanted to exploit the n''s current power.


    News that the emperor would choose a sessor from the various princes was only announced to the


    inner circle, but it had already spread in secret. Therefore, those ns standing in line began to take


    action, trying their best to pull the parties together and expand their power to help their own camp.


    The only ns still didn''t express their support of a particr prince were the Qi n and the Cao


    n. Naturally, such dominant ns with significant influence in the Timber Deity Empire would wait


    until thest minute to make their choice. But once they made their choice, the situation would vastly


    change. Therefore, ns that had already made their choice were lying in wait as they watched the Qi


    n and the Cao n.


    Since the Qi n had formed a secret alliance with Prince Geoffrey, the only n with no definite


    allegiance was the Cao n. Because of Rocky, the Cao n would most likely side with Woods in


    the end.


    There were already many rumors about Rocky and Woods. Not long ago, Woods had taken Rocky to


    the beast arena, andter, there had been a conflict between them and Prince Algy at the Laney


    Pavilion. Needless to say, the other ns had started their own predictions.


    Unfortunately, those ns couldn''t afford to jump to a certain conclusion before the end. Meaning that,


    as long as the Cao n hadn''t publicly expressed their support for Woods, everything still remained


    unknown.


    "Master Lucas, where is Chief Luci?" Seeing that Luci hadn''t shown up yet, the chief of the


    Xuanyuan n asked Lucas with cupped hands.


    "Yes, we haven''t seen the chief of the Cao n in so long," the chief of the Huang n added.


    The rest of those present perked up.


    "Chief Luci will soon be here," Lucas replied with an apologetic smile on his old face.


    As soon as he finished speaking, there was a sudden noise outside. Then, a delicate figure in a red


    dress appeared. She slowly walked in, grabbing everyone''s attention.


    The crowd burst into an uproar.


    It was Luci.


    The woman had changed her simple and elegant dress she usually wore. She now wore a bright red


    robe like a peony flower. It set off her curvy figure, showing her striking beautiful side. Her petite face


    spattered with little makeup; purple eyes and red lips full of temptation. No one could look away.


    With such a beautiful face, Luci immediately attracted the attention of the men enamored with her.


    They were all practically drooling in an entranced daze.


    However, another stunning figure like a blooming lily followed closely behind Luci. Her delicate


    features, bright eyes, and perfect teeth held a subtle note of arrogance but still could not hide the


    young girl''s innocence. At first nce, she was like a fairy falling into the mortal world, pure yet


    seductive.


    ncing around the crowd, the figure snorted coldly as she walked straight towards Lucas. In the Cao


    n, only Queenie dared to behave like this in front of so many important guests.


    "I''m sorry that I didn''t greet you all earlier!" Luci walked to the front of the Magnificent Hall and said


    politely. Then she sat down and began to ept the congrattions and salutes from everyone


    present.


    "Both the Qi n''s chief and young master are here." Just as everyone scrambled to congratte and


    present gifts to Luci, a shout suddenly came from outside.
