Chapter 815 A Golden Opportunity That Everyone Wanted To Get

With grievance on her face, Queenie's eyes were red from crying too hard. Suddenly, Rocky gave her a quick gaze. Shaking his head, he began to speak, "Actually, it is not Miss Queenie's fault..." After saying that, he simply narrated what had happened.

"I see. So it is." Enlightened with the truth, Lucas nodded as he heard Rocky's words.

On the other hand, Lucilla realized that she had wrongfully blamed her sister. Immediately, she cast her eyes on Queenie's small and woeful face.

"Hey, I don't need you to be so kind and speak for me. I know for a fact that I'm the one who got myself in trouble." Queenie's sobbing stopped for a moment, for she had never expected that Rocky would even take the initiative to say any good thing about her. Although she still spewed hostile words, deep in her heart, she knew that she was pretty much grateful for him. Usually, Rocky spoke indifferently, along with his very annoying behavior. With this, she was quite stunned that he was willing to help her explain the context of the situation.

"This means that you don't have to feel guilty at all. In fact, it is only right that I should also take part of the responsibility," Rocky said in a calm voice.

"But, Mr. Rookie, my sister almost involved you..." Lucilla was worried about Rocky being exposed. If it was him who killed the two Heavenly Stage masters from the Qi Clan, then surely, they would not take things lying down and would take revenge on him.

"I am just a regular guy, Chief Lucilla. Please don't worry about me. If you think that I killed the two Heavenly Stage masters and worry about the possible troubles that I may have caused the Cao Clan, then I will immediately leave without hesitation. I won't let any trouble find you, Chief Lucilla," Rocky added. For him, there was no difference if he stayed or not in the Cao mansion. After all, he was only in the capital because he was about to meet Woods.

On the other hand, Lucilla never had the impression that Rocky was a gentleman and as cool as a cat. Usually, people would be scared out of their wits if they got in trouble with the Qi Clan. But in Rocky's eyes, the Qi Clan was not much of a respected clan. Seeing how Rocky behaved, Lucilla became more curious about him.

"If you say so, Mr. Rookie. At this point, I feel ashamed to say anything. Queenie, I believe that you should thank Mr. Rookie," Lucilla immediately suggested to Queenie.

"No,

things. There's a chance that the opposite happens, and we must take advantage of it. I heard that Prince Woods is not restrained and doesn't like to stick to only one pattern. He has a sharp eye for discovering talented people and also likes to keep them. In this aspect, the Cao Clan has a natural advantage over the Qi Clan." Lucilla had her own considerations. Therefore, after giving it some thought, she still invited Prince Woods to her banquet.

"I hope so." Lucas nodded.

When the chiefs of the mediocre clans and their beast masters knew that Prince Woods would attend tonight's banquet, all of them became so excited. With enthusiasm, they went to prepare all kinds of rare treasures, waiting to present to Prince Woods in the banquet.

Meanwhile, in the wing house of the Xiao Clan, Raef paced back and forth in his room, looking very anxious.

Suddenly, a delicate figure pushed the door open and came in. Mary entered the room and looked at Raef's face, with her eyes slightly narrowed. At that moment, she seemed to understand her father's plan.

"Mary, here you are!" Raef called her daughter, with joy beaming all over his face.

"Father, why did you ask me to come here?" Mary's voice sounded cold. Obviously, she cared much about what happened this morning.

"But where is Juey? Is she still in your room?" asked Raef.

As a reply, Mary nodded.

"Prince Woods is going to attend the Cao Clan's banquet tonight. This is a great opportunity for the Xiao Clan. I heard that other clans also want to have his favor. In that case, we must play harder tonight," Raef said with treacherous eyes.
