Chapter 1017 The Most Wanted Thing Was To Take Revenge


    "Mr. Rookie, is there anything bothering you?" A sweet voice came from behind Rocky, startling him.


    He whirled around and saw Luci, who walking gracefully toward him.


    "Chief Luci, what brings you out here?" Rocky asked with a faint smile pulling at the corners of his


    mouth.


    "Please, call me Luci. I just wanted to thank you for protecting Queenie that day. If it weren''t for you,


    Mr. Rookie, she would have been in danger," Luci said gratefully. She greatly appreciated what


    Rocky had done for her and the Cao n, whether it was intentional or not.


    "It''s no big deal. Anyway, it''s thest time." Rocky calmly shook his head.


    She couldn''t help the gasp that escaped her lips when she heard his words. Her face paled slightly, and


    her hands trembled by her side. Although she was mentally prepared, she didn''t expect that this


    moment woulde so soon. "Are you leaving so soon?"

    "I have finished what I nned to do in the Timber Deity Empire. There is no reason for me to stay.


    Besides, I have other important things to do," Rocky said bluntly.


    "I see..." she murmured quietly, looking pitiful and sad.


    "What''s wrong? Are you missing me already?" replied Rocky jokingly, as his own way of lightening the


    mood.


    "Maybe you are right, but I know you won''t stay for me, Mr. Rookie," she answered straightforwardly.


    From the start, she had a feeling that Rocky could not be hers alone, so she did not harbor any


    illusions.


    "You are right. I cannot stay, but you can consider going with me, as long as you are willing to let go of


    everything you have now," Rocky said tentatively.


    "Mr. Rookie, you know I can''t do that... Even if I want to, I can''t!" grumbled Luci, frowning cutely at


    him.


    "That would be a pity. I thought something more could grow between us, Luci." Rocky pretended to


    be regretful, but Luci could see the boyish smirk he was hiding.


    "You are so mean. Stop teasing me! You are going to leave already, so why are you making me think


    about all these things?" As Luci spoke, she suddenly leaned forward in Rocky''s arms and continued,


    "When I''m with you, I feel safe. I feel at home. I can put down any disguise and act like an ordinary


    woman, but we are not destined to be together. Perhaps, you are the only man in my life who has


    sessfully charmed me. I''m afraid that if I let you go, I will regret it for the rest of my life..."


    "I understand. Take good care of yourself, okay? This could be ourst meeting, or maybe, we will


    meet again someday. But I cannot stay here any longer," Rocky said frankly. After all, if he returned to


    the Holy Dragon Empire and regained his status as Prince Basil, he would not be able to appear in the


    Timber Deity Empire again, at least not aboveboard.


    Hearing this, Luci''s eyes turned red, and it took every ounce of her self-control to stop herself from


    crying. She took a deep breath, calming herself because this was thest time they could be together.


    She didn''t want him to see her in such a pitiful state.


    "I''ll go inside first." Then, Luci left Rocky''s arms. She looked at Rocky with a smile, her beautiful eyes


    wet with unshed tears. She tried to look strong, but the sadness in her eyes could not be concealed.


    She gave him a final nod and left.


    "You are quite an affectionate man!" At this moment, a coquettish voice sounded. Rocky turned his


    head and saw a graceful figure in the moonlight.


    "Why are you here? What did the emperor say about the spiritual treasure?" Rocky asked curiously. He


    had immediately recognized the figure, just by hearing her voice. It was Alyssa.


    "That''s none of your business. You don''t need to care about the spiritual treasure. Didn''t I say that I


    would talk to you after the treasure hunting game was over?" Alyssa red at Rocky.


    "Oh, yes. Sorry. So many things have happened today, so I forgot." Rocky nodded immediately.


    The two of them went to the pavilion by theke where he and Woods had met before. At this moment,


    the quietke was an enchanting sight, as it reflected the crescent moon, with barely a ripple in sight.


    "When are you going back to the Holy Dragon Empire?" Alyssa asked straightforwardly even before


    they had entered the pavilion.


    Rocky took his time, sitting down before he answered. "If you don''t have anything else for me to do, I''m


    going to leave in two or three days."


    "If you just go back like this, aren''t you afraid of causing trouble?" Alyssa asked. Her voice sounded


    worried, while her eyes were narrowed suspiciously.


    "What kind of trouble? If I go back, everyone will be happy, right?" Rocky said with a faint smile. Of


    course, he also knew that it was not as simple as he had said. However, he didn''t want Alyssa to know


    too much about him, especially the things rted to Alston.


    "Maybe it''s true for most people, but for Alston, the eldest prince of the Holy Dragon Empire, it''s hard to


    say, isn''t it?" Alyssa asked shrewdly, her dark eyes boring into his very soul.


    The casual name-drop immediately alerted Rocky that she knew more than she was letting on. Maybe


    she had known from the start, or perhaps she had found out more along the way.


    "Did Prince Woods tell you something?" Rocky asked after a short pause.


    "I guessed it by myself. I''ve already found out that my brother was hiding something from mest time


    when you were all attacked. And when I found out that you were the prince of the Holy Dragon Empire,


    I was already suspicious. Not long ago, after I confirmed some information, I was sure that the person


    who attacked you was the eldest prince of the Holy Dragon Empire. He is your brother, who is also the


    sessor of the next emperor of the Holy Dragon Empire, Alston. Well? Did I get it right?" With


    Alyssa''s intelligence, how could she not suspect that there was something strange about the attack


    against Woods and Rocky? And the fake death that Rocky arranged was enough proof that there must


    be something wrong.


    Later on, she suspected that her brother must have been hiding something from her. When Rocky


    appearedter, she felt that all of these could not be a coincidence, so she also asked Laney to gather


    information secretly, especially information about him when he was still in the Crimson Dragon Group.


    As a result, she learned that when Alston was in the Crimson Dragon Army, he kept raising objections


    against Rocky and almost put the Crimson Dragon Army in trouble, which had nearly fulfilled the wish


    of the Timber Deity Empire. Therefore, after some spection and analysis, she was sure that the one


    who attacked Rocky and her brother was the eldest prince, Alston. And it should also be Alston who


    leaked Rocky''s route to her to deal with Rocky. That was all part of his n.


    In her opinion, the reason why Alston tried so hard to get rid of Rocky was that he was worried that


    Rocky would threaten his position as the sessor, so he tried his best to deal with him.


    In this case, everything made sense.


    "I really can''t hide anything from you, can''t I?" Rocky said calmly although it seemed that Alyssa had


    already put together everything.


    "So, now that you are going back to the Holy Dragon Empire, your priority is taking revenge on Alston,


    right?" Alyssa asked as if she had seen through Rocky''s mind.
