"That's right. But this is going to be unfair to you!" Realizing the gravity of the situation, Hannah knew
that if Rocky fought as the representative of the Sword Spirit Sect, she would probably really marry
him. When that happened, he would definitely be promoted to a higher position within the sect.
However, since he won disguised as a representative of another sect, it would be a very different case.
She worried that he might not even get anything in return.
"You don't have to mind me. As a member of the Sword Spirit City, I decided to do this for the sake of
the city and the sect. I don't feel any injustice at all," Rocky said calmly.
"My father told me that he would do his best to make it up to you. If you want anything, please feel free
to ask. We will agree with it as long as it is within our capabilities." Hannah knew that Rocky had
contributed significantly to the Sword Spirit Sect, so she felt that he deserved to be rewarded
handsomely.
"Let's talk about that at a later time. Although I've won the competition, I'm afraid that the Grand Sky
Sect wouldn't give up that easily. Let's focus on holding the wedding first and going through the current
trouble first." Rocky presumed that since the plan of the Grand Sky Sect had failed miserably, and they
also lost an outstanding talent in the process, they probably wouldn't just stand idly.
"That's right. As long as they don't have any evidence to prove what we have done, they will have no
excuse to cause any trouble," Hannah agreed.
"Well, let's hope for the best. I'm going to leave now. Oh! Remember to come to my place tomorrow. I
will inject the last dose of the gene serum into you, so don't forget," Rocky said as he went on his way.
Looking at the receding figure of Rocky, Hannah couldn't help but sigh. "Actually, marrying him is a
good choice!"
After saying that, she also went in the other direction.
However, just when the two of them left, a furtive figure suddenly sneaked out of the Medical Service
Hall.
"So, Basil pretended to be the representative of the Heaven Shadow Pavilion, huh? I should quickly go
and tell this to Master Miguel! He will definitely reward me for this piece of information!” the figure said
as he instantly disappeared into the dark.
Not long after, Miguel finally learned the truth regarding Rocky's fake identity.
"What is he thinking? I didn't expect the leader to ask Basil to take on such a task! Now, he's really
going to let that bastard marry Hannah?" Miguel couldn't help but exclaim in exasperation.
"Master Miguel, I think that this is going to be a huge problem. Although Basil is hiding in the identity of
the representative of the Heaven Shadow Pavilion, this secret can't be kept for long. Sooner or later, he
will officially become Miss Hannah's husband. Miss Hannah is still Master Timothy's biological
daughter. If somehow, she tried hard to convince her father, Basil might even become the next sect
leader in the future. You will lose all power when that happens," one of Miguel's trusted subordinates
said.
"I know. I can't let them get married. I have to stop it at all costs!" Miguel declared resentfully.
"Basil has killed Knox of the Grand Sky Sect. I'm sure that their members hate him to the core. I think it
will be a good move if we let them know the truth about Basil's false identity. With that, they will
definitely take action against Basil. Eventually, Master Timothy will have to weigh the overall situation,
and hand Basil over to them!" Miguel's subordinate speculated.
"Good idea! I'll leave that matter to you. Be sure to find someone that can serve as a witness. When
everything's done, you can just let the guy who sent us the information become the scapegoat," Miguel
said with a sinister smile.
"I will arrange it right away. It's time to teach that Basil a lesson," the subordinate also replied with a
malicious smile.
Meanwhile, in the Grand Sky Sect, Benedict and an elder of the Sovereign Sect were having a
conversation in a magnificent hall.
It turned out that Benedict was being scolded because of the recent events. He just showed an
apologetic smile and didn't dare to answer rashly.
"If you hadn't asked Knox to participate in that competition, he would still be alive. What a waste of
talent it is! You should know that the Sovereign Pavilion spent a lot of time and resources to train him.
Now that we've lost him, how are you going to explain this to the leader of the Sovereign Pavilion?" the
elder of the Sovereign Pavilion sternly reprimanded Benedict.
"Please calm down. There is nothing we can do right now. Since Knox is already dead, nothing can
change that fact. However, I still think that there was something wrong with what happened in that
competition. I've already sent someone to the Heaven Shadow Pavilion to confirm something. I don't
think that the person who killed Knox is their member. Otherwise, Knox wouldn't be killed mercilessly,"
Benedict remarked with certainty.
"Then who the hell is that guy? Why would he disguise himself as a member of the Heaven Shadow
Pavilion?" the elder asked.
"I don't know yet, but I have a strong feeling that he has something to do with the Sword Spirit Sect,"
Benedict briefly replied.
"The Sword Spirit Sect? Are you sure about that? You should find pieces of evidence first before you
spout those things."
"We're working on that. And if we can prove that the person who killed Knox is really linked to the
Sword Spirit Sect, then we can take that opportunity to launch an attack to that vile sect!" Benedict said
as his eyes immediately darkened.
"Then, be sure that you can find something. You won't be able to do anything just from baseless
accusations," the elder said with a bit of hesitation.
"Don't worry about it. When I already have it, just be sure to cooperate with me. We can discuss later
what you can get from this," Benedict responded.
"Fine. I'll go ahead. I'm warning you. You better hurry up. If our leader started looking into this matter, I
won't be able to guarantee you anything," the elder warned before leaving.
Just as Benedict was racking his brain to find a way to prove his hunch, a disciple suddenly rushed into
the hall, bearing a letter in his hand. "Master Benedict, someone sent me this letter and told me that
you should read it in person."
"Who gave it to you?" Benedict asked with furrowed brows.
"I don't know. He just said that if you want to know the real identity of the person who killed Knox, then
you must read the content of the letter," the disciple answered with all honesty.
"What?! Hand it to me!" Hearing that, Benedict became extremely curious and immediately asked for
the letter.
Then, the disciple hurriedly approached Benedict and handed the letter with both hands.
After getting the letter, Benedict immediately opened it and read it to himself. After he finished it, a
sudden change in his facial expressions became very visible. "It is indeed the people of the Sword
Spirit Sect who was responsible for killing Knox! Let's see how Timothy will explain this to me! This is
conclusive evidence. I'm afraid there is no getting out of this!"
Meanwhile, Rocky, who still wasn't aware of the upcoming trouble, was about to inject the third dose of
the gene serum into Hannah. They were currently in his laboratory inside his Magic Spiritual Space.
Right now, this last dose of serum would determine whether a change in Hannah's gene would still be
possible or not.
"The effect of this third shot is going to be a lot stronger than the first two. In addition to falling asleep,
you may also encounter some illusions. However, you can't be deceived by those. You must overcome
them until the side-effects wear off," Rocky reminded as he finished injecting the serum into her.
"Okay. I get it." As Hannah answered, the gene serum already worked, and soon enough she fell
asleep.
Then, Rocky sat beside her and observed the changes in her body through his spiritual power. Whether
he could successfully change and repair her genetic defect depended on the next six hours.
Obviously, six hours were a little longer compared to the hours that he waited from the previous
sessions.
As time went by, Rocky didn't dare to relax at all. He concentrated on monitoring any slight changes
within Hannah's body.
Two hours later, Hannah's physical condition seemed to be very steady and everything was still going
smoothly.
However, after another half an hour, Rocky was a bit startled when Hannah began to scream as if she
was suffering from a nightmare. "Don't... Don't come over!" As she shouted loudly, she also waved her
hands while her body trembled violently.
Seeing that, Rocky immediately tried to restrict her movements with his spiritual power. However, he
soon found out that an abnormal spiritual power was surging out from her body and resisting his
spiritual power.
"What's going on? Why is there a powerful spiritual power in her body that doesn't belong to her?"
Rocky's eyes narrowed as he was a bit taken by surprise.
He didn't give up just yet and continued to try his best to suppress the abnormal spiritual power that
Hannah's body was leaking. However, the power was much greater than he initially imagined. Even
with his current strength, he couldn't overcome it. The other problem was that he couldn't act rashly
because he might accidentally hurt Hannah's body.
At the moment, Hannah still continued shouting as if she was seeing some of her most painful
memories.
"It seems that there's only one way around this. I'll have to enter her spiritual sense and bring her out."
After careful considerations, Rocky employed the Mysterious Beast Transformation Skill. The skill
allowed him not only to communicate with spiritual beasts but also to freely enter a human's spiritual
sense after he managed its highest level.
Of course, there were also some risks, but Rocky deemed that it was the only way to determine what
was wrong with Hannah. The next moment, he put his palm between her eyebrows and directly entered
her spiritual sense world in the form of his spiritual sense.
A moment later, Rocky found himself in a room. He saw a very young Hannah, who was curled up in
the corner of a wall. At the door of the room, a figure stood expressionless, seeming to be none other
than Timothy.
"Father, I don't want to cultivate anymore," the young Hannah uttered as she sobbed. It was obvious
that she was full of fears.
"Why?" Timothy asked angrily, dissatisfied with her daughter's softness.
"I can't be a spirit warrior. Please don't force me to cultivate anymore," Hannah answered with her
young voice that was filled with pain.
