Chapter 1878 Reporting Something Important
"Go and report to the king that we arrived. The Godly Genius of the Ghost Fief and I will see him
shortly in the meeting hall," La ordered promptly.
The leading Spiritual Emperor immediately nodded and sent someone to report to the king about the
arrival of La and Rocky.
"Come on. Let us go too." La turned to Rocky and nodded at him.
But before they could go, one of the guards asked, "Your Royal Highness, what about your ride? I''m
afraid we cannot deal with it if you just leave it here."
"Oh, the beast actually belongs to him," La replied casually.
Upon hearing this, the Spiritual Emperors and the royal guards present instantly grew very respectful of
Rocky. After all, no one expected that the Godly Genius of the Ghost Fief possessed such a powerful
beast.
"So, this is the legendary Godly Genius of the Ghost Fief! What a brilliant and powerful young man!"
"That''s right. It''s obvious that he is an extraordinary guy!"
"It seems that even Princess La favors him. I''m sure that he will have a bright future ahead!"
The Spiritual Emperors immediately said some ttering words to get on Rocky''s good side.
On the other hand, Rocky just let out a faint smile and said nothing in response. Then, he waved at
Rubygon, signaling it to leave first. Afterward, it let out a low roar and majestically flew away before
everyone''s eyes.
Immediately after, Rocky and La got going and entered the pce under the gazes of the public.
Not long after, the two of them arrived at the meeting hall, where the king and several people were
waiting for them. Some of them were elders of the royal family, while the others were ministers. It
seemed that they were just summoned when the king got the news that La and Rocky had returned.
"Your Majesty, we havee back." La saluted the moment they appeared before the king.
At the same time, Rocky also cupped his hands as a sign of respect.
"Tell me, how were you able to return? After you left, the teleportation point in the pce was suddenly
destroyed by a mysterious force that descended from the sky. I was worried that none of you would be
able toe back safely," the king could only ask directly while he sat straight on his throne. In fact,
the king was a little surprised when the Spiritual Emperor reported that the two had alreadye back.
After all, he did not expect that La would return earlier than Enoch or Zain, especially after the
teleportation point was destroyed.
"We were a bit lucky to find another teleportation point inside the Ghostly Demon Land," La
answered as she cast a nce at Rocky.
"Oh, is that so?" When the king heard this, his brows instantly furrowed. Although he knew that there
were other teleportation points in the Ghostly Demon Land, most of them were destroyed, including the
one in the pce. He knew there was indeed another one left, but the location and information about it
were only known to the previous rulers. Hence, the king found it really strange that they were able to
find it.
However, he did not bother to ask about it. Instead, he changed the topic. "Why are you the only ones
who came back? Where are Zain, Enoch, and their team members?"
"After we obtained Phillip''s power, we tried to escape from the Ghostly Demon Land immediately. That
was when we happened to find the teleportation point. So, as for whether Prince Zain and Prince
Enoch havee back or not, we have no idea whatsoever," La bluntly replied. Logically, there was
indeed no need to wait for the other teams since they werepetitors. Besides, the first one who
could bring back Phillip''s power would be dered the winner. Moreover, Enoch colluded with the
demonic race and almost caused all of them to die back in the Ghostly Demon Land. Thus, La did
not really care if they coulde back or not.
"So, you have obtained Phillip''s power?" Apparently, the king only thought that they came back safely,
but he did not expect that La also finished the task and obtained Phillip''s power. Now, ording to
the rule that he had set, La should be chosen as the next ruler.
At the same time, the elders and ministers could just look at each other and discuss among
themselves. Among the three candidates, they had always thought that La would have the least
chances of seeding.
"To be exact, Odin was the one who obtained it." La did not dare to take all the credit. Instead, she
told the truth without hesitation. After all, if it wasn''t for Rocky, she might not have evene back
alive, let alone acquire Phillip''s power.
"I see..." The king shifted his gaze to Rocky upon hearing what La said. Although he had already
seen Rocky once before they entered the Ghostly Demon Land, he didn''t really pay much attention to
the young man. In the king''s eyes, Rocky was just a mere Godly Genius of a major fief. He might have

done some amazing performances before, but it was not enough to really capture the king''s attention.
But now that Rocky helped La get ahold of Phillip''s power, the situation had somehow changed.
Even the elders and ministers also fixed their eyes on Rocky. For most of them, this was their first time
meeting the young man. Previously, they also heard about Rocky''s reputation along with the stories
regarding his performance in the Shura Race. So, now that they had finally seen him in person, they
grew more curious about him.
However, as they scrutinized him, it seemed that they could not see anything special about Rocky.
They thought that his aura was very ordinary, and nothing really stood out.
Thus, this made them all the more wonder how Rocky managed to obtain Phillip''s power.
"Your Royal Highness, aren''t you being too modest? How can he acquire Phillip''s power when we can
see in as day that his strength is very average? It would seem that the trial is too simple!" a
confidant of Zain, who was also a minister of the royal family, suddenly butted in with hints of jealousy
and disdain in his tone.
"Simple? Then, you can ask Prince Zain what he experienced in the Ghostly Demon Land when he
with a straight face. Then, she nced at Rocky and hinted something.
Shortly after, Rocky took out a jade bottle, which was being surrounded by a strange halo. It was
actually the container where he ced some of Phillip''s power from the Purgatorial Tripod.
As soon as Rocky held the jade bottle in front of him, it immediately gave off an astonishing pressure.
Even the elders present, who were at the Shura Realm, could not help but instantly wear a serious
expression.
However, Rocky, who was the one holding the bottle in his hand, just remained calm and unaffected by
the overwhelming power emitting from the bottle.
Obviously, the elders and minister got more confused. After all, they believed that Rocky was just a
Spiritual Emperor. But it was also a fact that he was not affected in any way by the pressure released
by Phillip''s power.
Then, Rocky eventually handed the bottle over to the king. The moment the king received the jade
bottle, he opened the cork. Immediately after, a strong aura at the God Realm spread in the air and
filled the hall. The elders and ministers instantly felt a shiver down their spine, and their faces turned
pale.
"This is indeed Phillip''s soul power!" the king eximed and confirmed.
Afterward, the elders and ministers began conversing among themselves again. With the confirmation
from the king, ording to the new rule, La was undoubtedly going to be the next ruler.
"Thank you for all your hard work. For now, go back and take a good rest!" However, to everyone''s
surprise, the king did not mention anything about the matter of the throne''s sessor.
Although she was a bit puzzled, La didn''t deem to initiate talking about the topic. Right now, this
issue could wait since she had something more important to report.
