Chapter 391 A Bizarre Picture

Tranquil filled the air as their hurrahs halted. The silence hung in the air like the suspended moment. The crowd stared at each other with stupefied expressions. None of them took Rocky's words sincerely. How could he alone help them out of the prevailing dilemma or perform any adjustments?

Isis and Marin were both looking sullen at Rocky. Obviously, they were taking Rocky's words in the same way as the crowd did. They were aware Rocky was out of the ordinary, but he was not a god after all. The Wild Heaven Pass was hanging by a thread now, and it was highly preposterous, like drawing blood from a turnip, that his existence could turn the tables.

"What? None of you figure out I alone can lend a helping hand here? Well, I'd better take my departure right away." Rocky wore a faint smile as glancing at Isis and Marin's faces. Shaking his head, he turned around and put up a false front to make his exit.

"Hold on!" Isis hollered out in a twinkle of an eye, almost based on her conditioned reflex.

"Fulfill my two prerequisites, and then I won't take off." Rocky smirked. It was as warm as hour old coffee and he turned to look at Isis.

Seeing his snigger, Isis finally became cognizant that it was all his swindle, which drove her into an outburst in a split of seconds. However, she struggled hard to keep a curb on her resentment and inquired, "What do you demand?"

"First, I require five hundred people leaving here to give me a leg up. The others withdraw from the Wild Heaven Pass right now and move to the valley behind the pass. Second, don't try to solicit the reason from me. I don't want to consume my time revealing." Rocky airily folded his arms in front of his chest.

Silence swept over the air one more time. The silence caressed their skin like a cool summer breeze. Almost everyone present was gawking at Rocky with bemused glances. They could not even fathom what their ears just discovered and thought Rocky must be out of mind. The Crimson Dragon Army had been fighting like hell against the Timber Deity Army to guard the Wild Heaven Pass. If they retreated now, the Timber Deity Army could occupy the Wild Heaven Pass as promptly as blinking an eye. Then what they had undertaken would be all in vain in the end.

What Rocky just suggested was so feather-brained that none of the crowd had a sneaking suspicion Isis would respond yes to him.

"Rocky, how can we understand what you plan to do if you don't give an interpretation at all?" Marin remarked out of turbulence. She wore a baffled expression. She was free from doubt about Rocky's abilities because she already witnessed how good Rocky wa

ear. Uriah groaned and sauntered to Marin, looking at her with its round and big eyes.

"Let's go! Leave your irritating master here alone!" Marin patted on Uriah's head and then left away with it.

Rocky went to Rubygon, rode on it, and headed out of the pass.

An hour later, there were only five hundred soldiers left in the Wild Heaven Pass. Under Isis' leadership, the rest three thousand soldiers escaped through the south gate, which faced the Holy Dragon Empire, and encamped in the nearby valley behind the Wild Heaven Pass.

When everything had been carried out, Isis ordered Tod to remain and lead the three thousand soldiers. Then she rode on Silver Wind to come back to the pass.

It was close to the sunset right now. Inside the Wild Heaven Pass, there were flashes of aggressive flames and black smoke billowing in the air. The flame rolled outwards like the smoke of a mushroom cloud. Watching from above, a huge fire array seemed to be set up in the entire Wild Heaven Pass.

Dunn and the five hundred soldiers left were standing at the south gate. Beside them were pots, pans, porcelains, and ironware.

"What are those things for?" Isis jumped down from Silver Wind and wandered to Dunn.

"I have no slightest clue. That's what Rocky requested for," Dunn spelled out while swinging his head towards Isis.

Isis looked inside with a dumbfounded expression. One-meter high flames were burning fiercely and scattered around the entire Wild Heaven Pass. They stood in order, and the distance between each of them was the same, which formed a bizarre picture. The flames were like a great famished beast devouring everything in its path and belching out black smoke.

"Is he planning to set up some array?" Isis had a wild guess.
