"I'm not sure if Canaan was also involved. It could have been his confidant's own doing. If that were the
case, it would have nothing to do with Canaan or the Sky-suppressing Mansion," Shirley said with a
frown.
"What's his name?" Rocky asked.
"Ishaan Gao," Shirley replied.
"Given Canaan's identity and his high status, he wouldn't have to sell his country for wealth. My guess
is that it was Ishaan. Canaan is innocent," Rocky said after some thought.
"I think there is a huge conspiracy behind this," Shirley said, nodding. "I hope you don't get involved.
You might get into trouble. Canaan is a master at the Emperor Realm. You can't deal with him. If you try
to investigate Ishaan, you will offend Canaan."
"I will have to think about it. By the way, I found Alyssa." Rocky didn't want to tell her that he would get
involved yet, so he changed the topic.
"Alyssa? Really?" Shirley exclaimed. If they could get in touch with Alyssa, it would be much easier to
find their other companions.
"Yes. She is the commander in chief of the spiritual race now. However, she didn't want to become the
commander in chief, but somehow she had to," Rocky explained.
"Is there anyone else with her?" Shirley asked, getting more excited.
"She didn't mention it. Her identity is special now and it's not appropriate for her to say too much!"
Rocky shook his head.
"If that's all you had to tell me, I will go. I'll come to see you again when I'm free," Shirley said.
"Wait, Shirley!" Rocky shouted the moment that she turned around.
"What's wrong?" Shirley looked back at Rocky.
"I think we have to investigate the matter of Ishaan selling information to the spiritual race. It might be
our only opportunity." Rocky had made up his mind in a short period of time.
"So you want to risk it. What can I do?" Shirley didn't really expect Rocky to let it go. She knew that he
refused to give up so easily.
"Nothing ventured, nothing gained! If we can collect evidence, we may be able to solve everything!"
Rocky exclaimed, smiling.
"But what are you going to do?" Shirley asked impatiently, rolling her eyes at Rocky.
"I'm going to go to the Sky-suppressing Mansion to perform an investigation and meet the son of the
chief," Rocky answered.
"Are you crazy?" Shirley's eyes widened.
"Yes. It comes with my personality," Rocky joked. He wore a confident smile on his face.
"Then I'll go with you!" Shirley exclaimed, frowning in determination.
"Will it be convenient for you?" Rocky asked.
"I have to come with you no matter what. The risk is too large if you go by yourself."
"All right. I'll report to Commander Wang first. Then we'll set off. Wait for me outside the valley."
Shirley nodded in agreement and walked away.
Rocky traveled to Tucker's tent and entered it. Then he explained that he had found a clue that might
lead to the mysterious person who had sold the information to the spiritual race.
When he heard that, Tucker naturally grew excited. After all, if he could find the mysterious person who
had sold the military secrets of the human race to the spiritual race, it would be a great contribution. He
approved it straight away.
After that, Rocky went to inform Eunice, Kye, and Maxwell that he must leave to carry out a new task.
"I want to come with you," Eunice pleaded, as if she was afraid that Rocky would run away.
"No. This is my mission." Rocky shook his head firmly.
"But..." Eunice began. She stopped when she saw the look of warning on Rocky's face.
"Don't worry. I'll only be gone for half a month," Rocky reassured her.
"What if you run away? What if you forget about me?" Eunice said, pouting her lips.
"Do you really think I'm that kind of person?" Rocky shot Eunice a serious look.
"I'm just being careful!" The look that Rocky continued to give her made Eunice feel a little guilty, but
she still refused to admit it.
Rocky shook his head and smiled bitterly. Then he left the Heavenly Rain Valley and met with Shirley
on the outside. They climbed onto Shirley's favorite beast and flew to the Sky-suppressing Mansion.
The Sky-suppressing Mansion was located in the famous Sky-suppressing City of the Ethereal Region.
It was one of the biggest cities in the Ethereal Region. High-rise buildings of different shapes and sizes
were everywhere and the streets were teeming with life. It was as magnificent as the Imperial City.
Meanwhile, Rocky and Shirley were walking down the street of the Sky-suppressing City. They looked
as out of place as country bumpkins who were coming to a large city for the first time.
"I didn't think the Sky-suppressing City would be this magnificent!" It was the first time Rocky had
visited the Sky-suppressing City, so he was also shocked by the grandeur of it.
"Yes, even though I've been here several times, I still feel like I'm insignificant every time I come,"
Shirley said with a smile.
"Where is the headquarters of the Sky-suppressing Mansion?" Rocky asked.
"It's in the innermost part of the west of the city. I forgot to tell you. The Sky-suppressing Mansion
covers a total of 1/5 of the Sky-suppressing City. So, what are we going to do first?"
"I want to investigate Ishaan. You're more familiar with him and do you know his weaknesses?" Rocky
said.
"Ishaan is a well-known figure in the Sky-suppressing City. He is in charge of a lot of businesses that
the Sky-suppressing Mansion owns. He is respected by many people. Because he is Canaan's
confidant, not a lot of people in the Sky-suppressing City dare to offend him. But he has a special
hobby that everyone knows about," Shirley explained.
"Is he a womanizer?" Rocky raised his eyebrows.
"All men are lascivious, aren't they? No. He likes collecting spiritual beasts." Shirley rolled her eyes at
Rocky.
"He collects spiritual beasts? That's not a weakness, is it?"
"Of course collecting spiritual beasts is not a weakness. But he is obsessed. That is the difference,"
Shirley answered. "Isn't it your specialty to study spiritual beasts? You could use it to get closer to
Ishaan."
"That sounds like a good idea." Rocky nodded.
"In order to feed into his hobby of collecting spiritual beasts, Ishaan built a very luxurious Spiritual
Beast Palace in the Sky-suppressing Mansion. He keeps all the spiritual beasts he collected there.
Several times a month, it is open to outsiders so that he can communicate with people that share his
hobby. And if anyone has a rare beast to sell, they go to the Spiritual Beast Palace. There will be
someone there to purchase it." It was clear that Shirley had come on the mission prepared.
"Really? I guess I will have to use the Purple-flaming Phoenix to get close to Ishaan," Rocky said,
forming a plan in his mind.
"Are you going to the Spiritual Beast Palace now?" Shirley asked.
"Of course, but before we go there, I think we need a disguise. We don't look like businesspeople right
now." Rocky looked both Shirley and himself over and shook his head.
"I know there is a good clothing store in the Sky-suppressing Mansion." Shirley's eyes lit up.
'Shopping for clothes is indeed a woman's pastime!' Rocky thought to himself as he saw Shirley
smiling.
The two of them then headed for the clothing store that Shirley had been talking
about.
