"If I kill you, Lena will be set free," Alston told Rocky snidely, snorting condescendingly.
"Oh, really? That's good then. I'm glad to hear that." Rocky smiled and relaxed as if he had heard
something soothing.
Of course, when Alston saw that Rocky was smiling happily, he went crazy. "Why are you smiling?!
What is wrong with you?!"
"I am happy because I'm sure you won't hurt Lena, and you won't threaten me with her life. Of course,
you don't need to do that," answered Rocky. The smirk was still in place on his lips, as if he was
amused at Alston.
"Go and get him! Teach this guy a lesson," Alston angrily ordered when he saw that Rocky was still
calm.
Soon, more than a thousand palace guards rushed to Rocky like a wave and surrounded him in an
instant.
At the same time, in the wholly enclosed Witch Palace, Lena quietly lay on her bed. However, she
heard the noise outside, so she immediately stood up and asked Randi whose face was full of guilt, "Is
Basil here?"
Randi hesitated once, but in the end, she glanced through the window and nodded slightly. "I think so,"
she answered.
"I need to go out. I want to see Basil!" Lena's eyes widened in excitement when she found out that
Rocky was there. It was hard to stem her desire to see Basil, so she immediately got up and walked
out of the Witch Palace as if she were going to rush out by force.
But at this moment, a figure flashed and appeared in front of her.
"Your Royal Highness, His Majesty has said that you are not allowed to step out of the Witch Palace. If
you insist, I will have to use force against you." It was Priest Dean.
"Get out of my way!" Lena scolded angrily.
"I understand that you are excited to meet Prince Basil. But if I were you, I wouldn't rush out recklessly,
because it would only be a burden for Prince Basil," Priest Dean continued.
Lena knew that he was right. Even though she wanted to rush out at once, she could not do so
impulsively, as she could end up distracting Basil from his fight. Since Basil was here to save her, she
trusted that he could get her out of there. So, in the end, she decided to reserve her strength and
quietly wait for him.
"Whatever you do, I will surely meet Basil again," Lena said firmly, staring at Priest Dean with a
challenge in her eyes.
At that moment, Rocky was slowly pulling out the Frozen Wind Dagger, as he gazed at the thousands
of palace guards surrounding him. His Frozen Wind Dagger turned into a ferocious Flaming Blade in an
instant, and he said to the palace guards, "Get out of my way. I don't want to kill you. You are all just
blinded by Alston, and I do not wish to waste your lives here. But if you continue to get in my way, don't
blame me for having no mercy!"
As he spoke, he eyed them intensely with a smoldering look, while his face remained cold and
emotionless. The guards were somewhat afraid of him, as they saw Rocky as a cold-blooded killer, and
they treated him as if he could kill people just by looking at them.
"Attack him! If anyone can kill him, I will reward that person with tens of thousands of gold. And also I
will promote that person!" Alston shouted.
It was evident that the thousands of palace guards couldn't resist the temptation of money and power,
so they began to rush madly toward Rocky, like a rising tide with astonishing momentum.
In an instant, a dense crowd of people had surrounded Rocky from all sides. Countless long weapons,
short blades, and spiritual martial arts came at him at the same time.
But he didn't even flinch, and his eyes remained as cold as a wild beast's. Without any hesitation, he
waved the Flaming Blade with deadly precision. He had already given these people a chance to
surrender, but unfortunately, they didn't know that they were just Alston's cannon fodder. Their
existence was worthless, and they were nothing more than sacrificial lambs.
Of course, Rocky couldn't be softhearted. In this cruel world, only by personally experiencing pain
would one know the fear of death!
The black Moon Blades shot out from the Flaming Blade and rushed into all directions. Wherever they
passed, screams and shouts of people erupted, and blood splashed everywhere like rain.
A moment later, severed limbs littered the ground within ten meters around.
Rocky didn't do anything unnecessary, so most of them had been killed swiftly. He walked towards the
Witch Palace step by step, as his skin shone brilliantly under the light of the sun, the crimson of the
blood wetting his arms and cheeks.
Not long after, more than three hundred members of the palace guards had been killed or injured, and
the rest had been frightened by Rocky. They were trembling with so much fear that they could not
move, let alone get close to him.
Seeing that the opening fight had come to a stalemate, Alston waved his hand, and then the twenty
masters at the Heavenly Stage immediately jumped up. They summoned their spirit-manipulated
beasts and joined the battle.
However, their presence didn't seem to be a big deal to Rocky, as he barely even glanced at them.
Instead, he gathered his spiritual power and immediately summoned Robin.
As soon as Robin appeared, it let out a bloodthirsty wolf's roar. In an instant, the more than twenty
spirit-manipulated beasts at the three-star or four-star level felt Robin's momentum, and were
overwhelmed by it. As a result, more than half of them ran away with their tails between their legs. The
rest that stayed to fight could barely maintain their fighting power.
In the next breath, Robin rushed into the remaining more than ten spirit-manipulated beasts, and it
waved its double claw ice blades as if it was cutting straws. Under the burning sunshine, it flashed a
cold light like the god of death.
In less than thirty minutes, the remaining beasts were dead, injured, or bathing in the beasts' blood.
More than twenty spirit manipulators at the Heavenly Stage were also shocked when they saw that
Robin could kill their spirit-manipulated beasts on its own.
Under Robin's cover, Rocky kept moving forward vigorously. Although there were more than twenty
spirit manipulators at the Heavenly Stage, it was still difficult for them to hinder his steps.
At that moment, Rocky looked as if he was going to kill whoever he met!
"Go! Go! Go!" Seeing that more than twenty spirit manipulators at the Heavenly Stage were unable to
stop Rocky, Alston turned to the rest of the spirit manipulators at the Heavenly Stage to fight against
him.
After all the spirit manipulators at the Heavenly Stage gathered, they immediately divided themselves
into two groups. Then they took turns using spiritual martial arts to bombard Rocky. Their only task was
to consume Rocky's spiritual power as much as possible.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
These dozens of moves from the spiritual martial arts at the Heavenly Stage exploded wildly around
Rocky. One after another, they attacked him in turns.
Faced with such a fierce attack, even the spirit manipulator at the Divine Stage would be burdened.
However, just after a few waves of attacks, a figure slowly walked out of the dust. The man's previous
ordinary-looking clothes had now turned into the majestic Ghostly Ice Fox-wolf Armor, and he came to
have two ferocious wolf heads on his shoulders. His chest protruded like wolf claws, while his lower
body was like a dress made of nine foxtails. More than that, the most exaggerated thing about him was
the fox-shaped helmet on his head. It covered his entire face, leaving only two narrow holes like a fox's
eyes.
