Chapter 1092 The Situation Was Serious


    "Before going to the Ximen Mansion, I sent people to pick up Lena from Pce City. If everything goes


    well, you will be reunited with her soon," Marcia said.


    It was only after hearing this that Rocky breathed a sigh of relief. His biggest worry now was Lena''s


    safety. After all, Alston was a truly despicable man. Now that he knew that Rocky was still alive, he


    would definitely use any means possible to kill Rocky, including using Lena as bait.


    "I''m leaving now," Marcia added. Then, she nodded at everyone and left the hall.


    Following her departure, the entire hall went quiet, and a sense of anxiety loomed over all of them.


    After a while, Rocky noticed Flint staring at him strangely. Unable to ignore it any longer, he turned to


    Flint and said, "Hey, dude, you''ve been staring at me this whole time. Did you fall in love with me


    because I saved you?"


    Flint, who was drinking tea, spat out the tea in his mouth and coughed violently. The people in the hall


    could not help bursting out intoughter, which finally eased the serious atmosphere.


    "Flint, just ignore him! Nothing decentes out of his mouth," Sabina grumbled.


    "I still don''t believe that you are the Basil whom I knew years ago," Flint said coldly after a moment of


    silence.


    "I''m not the Basil I used to be. That Basil died a long time ago." Rocky''s eyes darkened.


    Upon hearing this, everyone exchanged knowing nces. They had already guessed that Rocky must


    have ovee a lot after leaving the Pce City. Otherwise, it would have been impossible for him to


    survive, let alone be as strong as he was now.


    "I can''t even connect you with the Basil I used to know. You''ve changed a lot. When I received General


    Marcia''s order to go to Wal City to support you, I didn''t even recognize you at first. I didn''t expect you to


    be Prince Basil," said Mia, who had been silent so far.


    Everyone''s gaze once again turned to Rocky, this time tinted with a hint of serious respect.


    A whileter, Marcia walked into the hall again, returning from the Dragon Valley. However, there was a


    solemn expression on her face.


    "What''s happening?" Rocky asked her at once.


    "The elders are all cultivating in seclusion. They won''te out until three dayster," Marcia replied


    with a frown.


    "Three days? But anything could happen within three days." Elvis frowned, shaking his head.


    "It seems that we have to be the enemies of the whole royal family. We don''t have a choice. Even if we


    don''t take action, Alston definitely will," Sabina said as she clenched her fists.


    "How about this? I can send Laney to ask Master Lucas to send us some masters from the Cao n


    for support. Besides, the new emperor of the Timber Deity Empire is also on Basil''s side. Maybe they


    can help," Luci suggested immediately.


    "Although they support Basil, this is the business of the Holy Dragon Empire, so we can''t ask people


    from another country to help. Besides, it will take them at least three days to get here anyway. By then,


    everything may have been settled," Marcia replied, squinting her eyes in thought.


    Upon hearing this, Luci turned to Rocky for his opinion.


    "General Marcia is right. Don''t bother Woods and the Cao n," Rocky said as he nodded in


    agreement.


    Suddenly, something urred to Marcia and she looked around in a hurry. "Hasn''t Lenae back


    yet?" she asked worriedly.


    "No." Rocky shook his head and pressed his lips into a thin line.


    "It''s been too long. Do you think something went wrong?" Marcia frowned.


    As if on cue, a man with bloodstained clothes suddenly staggered into the hall. Half-kneeling in front of


    Marcia, he panted and said in a hurry, "Everyone who was sent to fetch Her Royal Highness from the


    Pce City has been discovered. I am the only one who managed to escape."

    "What about Lena?" Rocky asked in shock.


    "She has been imprisoned in the Witch Pce. Now, the entire pce is being guarded by arge


    number of troops."


    "I have to save her," Rocky said resolutely, clenching his fists.


    "She''s safe for the time being. We have toe up with a n first," Marcia said seriously.


    "No," Rocky growled. "We have to save her as soon as possible. Now that she is in Alston''s hands, he


    will definitely threaten me with her. He may even hurt her." Since Alston knew how important Lena was


    to Rocky, she was undoubtedly in grave danger.


    "But Alston''s goal is to kill you. For now, Lena is the biggest bargaining chip that he has, so he won''t


    hurt her just yet," Sabina said, trying to calm Rocky down.


    Mia nodded. "If we want to save her, we have to break into the Pce City by force. But even in normal


    times, the Pce City is well-guarded. If Alston has raised the security, even a fly wouldn''t be able to


    get in." Having once served as themander of the Pce City''s guards, she knew the city''s security


    better than anyone else.


    "We will need a lot more people then. With the number of people we have now, we won''t even be able


    to break the gate of the Pce City. However, the most troublesome thing is that if Alston mobilizes the


    elite power of the royal family, we won''t be able to contend against him unless we can mobilize the elite


    power of the Rime Army Group and the Crimson Dragon Group, as well as the masters of the Ji n


    and the other ns," Elvis said thoughtfully.


    This immediately put a damper on everyone''s moods; they knew that Elvis was right.


    Marcia was the first to resume herposure and nod in agreement. "Exactly. The Pce City is


    impregnable and is guarded by lots of masters. It''s not easy to break in, so we must be fully prepared."


    "But we don''t have time. Alston is definitely going to battle me within three days. And this time, it''s a


    fight to the death," Rocky said sternly.


    "I''m afraid that he has already set up a trap and is just waiting for us to walk into it," Sabina chimed in.


    "Since he wants to kill me anyway, I will trade my life for Lena''s. I can''t let her get hurt again," Rocky


    said resolutely with trembling fists.


    However, Marcia shook her head. "You know how despicable Alston is. Even if you give your life, he


    may not let go of Lena in the end."


    "It doesn''t matter. We know that Alston will go all out to kill me. So, we can use that to our advantage.


    I''ll keep him busy. What you need to do is to save Lena," Rocky said calmly. It seemed that he already


    had a n in mind.


    "Are you saying that you''re going to be the bait?" Marcia immediately understood what Rocky meant.


    "Get ready," Rocky said. Although he didn''t answer Marcia''s question, the look on his face was evident


    enough.


    A grim atmosphere descended over the entire hall. Everyone knew how serious the situation had


    be.


    Seeing that Rocky had made up his mind, Marcia didn''t say anything more.
