Chapter 1873 Not Chasing After Them
When the demoness saw that Rocky had obtained the Purgatorial Tripod, she quickly chased after him.
"Hand over the tripod to me! I know you have it!" the demoness eximed in a demanding tone. Her
chest was throbbing hard and her eyes were burning. After all, she could not afford to fail her mission.
"Then, why don''t you catch me? If you can, maybe I''ll give it to you!" Rocky teased with a grin. Turning
his back on the demoness, his figure disappeared in a sh.
"What the hell? Did his strength just increase again?!" The demoness'' jaw almost dropped, surprised at
what she just saw.
The next moment, Rockynded before La and her team.
"Your Royal Highness, the entire Demon Sealing Pce is about to copse. We have to get out of
here first," Rocky informed the princess at once.
"It seems that we already have what we came here for. All right. Let''s retreat!" La immediately
ordered.
At the same time, Zain also cast a nce at Rocky and ordered his men to get out of the pce.
Since they were all aware that Rocky sessfully acquired the Purgatorial Tripod, it would be
meaningless to fight with Enoch''s men and stay there.
Not long after, both the teams led by La and Zain got out of the crumbling pce.
Enoch also did not waste any time and gathered his men to get to the entrance.
After everyone had finally gone out, the entire Demon Sealing Pce copsed to the ground with a
loud bang, turning everything into mere ruins.
The demoness was thest one toe out, and it seemed that everyone still made it outside.

As soon as she came out, the demoness began shouting towards Rocky again, "Brat, we are not done
yet! Hand over the Purgatorial Tripod right now!"
At the same time, Zain also eximed with an aggressive expression, "Hey! Don''t you dare forget what
you promised me!"
"Hmm, but there is only one of it. Obviously, I can''t give it to both of you. How about you fight each
other, and then I''ll give it to the winner? Sounds good?" Rocky asked calmly as if he was not taking this
matter seriously.
"What? You intend to go back on your word?" Zain replied, gritting his teeth. He realized that in the first
ce, Rocky made him agree to the proposal since he did not have any other choice.
"Of course not. But think about it. Do you really think that this woman will let you have the tripod just
like that?" Rocky asked, shooting a nce at the demoness.
Zain also stared at the demoness with his cold eyes. At the back of his mind, he knew that Rocky was
right. Right now, he would not be able to deal with both the demoness and Enoch. If he tried to attack
Rocky and forcefully take the tripod, Enoch and his men would definitely take the chance to strike him
from behind.
"Why don''t you just give it up, Zain? Both of us know that you cannot do anything at this point anyway.
Get out of here with your men, and you will be spared," Enoch said with a smug face. If anyone had the
ability to take the Purgatorial Tripod away from Rocky, it would be the demoness, who happened to be
on Enoch''s side. Therefore, at this moment, only he and La actually had the chance topete for
the position of the next ruler.
"I don''t think so. I am the only one who knows the location of the teleportation point. Without me, you
cannot leave this ce," Zain replied with a raised eyebrow,ying out hisst trump card on the table.
"Did you not know that the teleportation point was destroyed right after we enter the Ghostly Demon
Land? That is the sole reason why my team was scattered all over the ce," La cut in and burst
out Zain''s bubble.
"What did you say?" Hearing this, Zain was utterly stunned. Obviously, he was not aware of this fact
since his team was the first one to use the teleportation point.
"Yes, you heard that right. I was actually the one who destroyed it. So, right now, no one among you
can leave this ce," the demoness sneered.
"I see. Then, it seems that we should learn to survive in thisnd," Rocky said in a sarcastic tone.
La and Valeria could just roll their eyes at Rocky. They could not believe that he was still in the mood
to crack a joke at such a critical moment.
"Well, as long as you hand the Purgatorial Tripod over to me, I can tell you the way to leave this ce,"
the demoness suddenly proposed with a cunning smile. From her tone, she was assuming that she had
already emerged victorious.
"I will have to decline that offer since you are actually not the only one who knows how to leave the
Ghostly Demon Land without using the teleportation point. Therefore, even if you don''t tell me, we will
be just fine on our own." Rocky deliberately waited for the demoness to show her hand just so he could
spite her.
"You really are trying to make me kill you, aren''t you?" Of course, the demoness was not amused at
how Rocky was toying with her.
"The real question here is if you can still do that. Your body is already close to its limit, so we both know
that it won''t be easy for you to kill me. You can threaten me all you want, but you should back it up with
actions." At this point, Rocky clearly knew that the demoness did not have the strength to take him
down. After all, if she did, she would have already done it much earlier. If she was not taking action
against him, it just meant that something was hindering her.
"Madam, you don''t have to waste your time with this brat. We still have many capable men on our side.
I''m pretty sure that we can handle him just fine!" Enoch could arrogantly say that he could take care of
Rocky since he and his men easily outnumbered the young man. However, he was actually ignorant of
Rocky''s current strength after inheriting Corey''s power.
"La, it seems that you will have to take care of yourselves from here on..." Obviously, Zain had no
obligation of helping her for the throne. They might have temporarily allied earlier, but the situation had
already changed. After saying that, he took his men away from the scene, intending to watch the
impending battle on the sidelines.
"What now?" La heaved a sigh and turned to Rocky.
"I already have a n. I will cover for the team while you and Valeria lead them away from here,"
Rocky replied in a low voice without any hint of worry or hesitation.
"What are you saying? You will handle all of this alone? Why don''t I stay and help you?" La
immediately urged. She was worried about Rocky, and he had already done so much for her.
"I''ll help too!" Valeria also offered after hearing what Rocky said.
"No! Just trust me on this. I need you to leave first. I promise I will meet up with you soon," Rocky
answered firmly and seriously.
They had already seen that determined look in Rocky''s eyes before, and he had alwayse through.
Hence, La and Valeria exchanged looks and could not help but agree. They knew that if Rocky said
that it was for the best, then they just had to put their faith in him.
"Rubygon!" Immediately after, Rocky summoned Rubygon in their midst.
As soon as Rubygon appeared, he whispered a few words to it. After listening to Rocky''s instructions,
the beast let out a low roar in response.
"Go with Rubygon. It will take you to a safe spot," Rocky said to La and Valeria.
La just nodded and instantly raised her hand to signal her men. Soon enough, the remaining
warriors under her team gathered around Rubygon.
"Let''s set out!" As La gave the order, her entire team immediately left under Rubygon''s protection.
"Madam, are we not going to chase after them?" Enoch asked the demoness the moment La and
her team escaped from the scene.
"There is no need for that. We don''t have to waste our energy on something trivial. This man has the
Purgatorial Tripod, and that is what we are after," the demoness replied. At this time, she did not care
about anyone else. Her time was already very limited, so she could just focus on her primary target.
On the other hand, upon seeing that La''s team had retreated without Rocky, Zain immediately sent
his men to track them. He assumed that Rocky might have been nning to escape the demoness and
Enoch, and the young man should definitely meet up with La''s groupter. With this, he could still
track the whereabouts of the tripod.
"Now, go and catch him even if it costs your lives!" the demoness ordered sternly.
"You heard her. Go and get him!" Enoch alsomanded decisively. He knew that this was the biggest
chance for him to be the next ruler, so he would not dare let it slip by.
Immediately after, Enoch and his men surrounded Rocky.
However, Rocky was still pretty calm. Since his strength had been replenished and was also more
powerful than before, he was confident to easily take on Enoch and his men. However, he still had to
be on guard with the demoness. Although her body would not enable her to use too much of her
strength, she still possessed the Demonic Spiritual Spear that could get him in huge trouble.
"What are you waiting for? Come at me all at the same time!" With a grin on his face, Rocky wielded
the God-killing Sword in his hand and incited Enoch and his men.
Falling for his provocation, Enoch and his men rushed forth and attacked Rocky from different
directions.
Rocky actually did not want to waste time fighting with them, so he instantly activated the God-killing
Sword, which let out a sudden roar. In a sh, an overwhelming sword aura surged out from the sword
and swept over in all directions.
Enoch and his men never expected that the God-killing Sword could release its power on its own as if it
had its own consciousness. Since most of them were caught off guard, they were instantly sent flying
with incredible momentum. As they crashed on the ground, they spat up a mouthful of blood and were
seriously injured. In fact, the weaker ones could barely stand on their feet upon receiving the
overbearing blow. It was safe to assume that they would not be able to hinder Rocky after this.
"The God-killing Sword can alsounch an attack on its own, huh?" Rocky murmured in surprise,
satisfied with this new discovery.
At this point, Enoch and his men were too scared to go near Rocky again. They did not know what
would happen to them if the God-killing Sword suddenlyunched a strike again.
"So, does it mean that you are not going to stop me now? Then, I''m leaving!" Rocky sneered at them
after seeing their terrified faces. Then, he hurriedly activated his bodily movement skill and headed in a
certain direction.
