The next morning, after parting with Alyssa, Rocky went back to the Cao Mansion and learned that Juey and her sister had already set off for the Barren City.
After Juey's departure, Rocky thought that he could enjoy solitude, but he didn't expect that the following days would drive him up the wall.
As soon as he returned to the Cao Mansion, Lucas suddenly came to see him.
"Master Lucas, what brings you here?" Rocky knew that Lucas must have something important to discuss with him about since he had taken the initiative to come and meet him.
"I've always regarded you as a friend, so I'll come straight to the point." Lucas seemed to be up to something. He continued, "I have a favor to ask you."
"What is so important that you came to ask me for help in person?" Rocky raised his eyebrows. With Lucas' position in the Cao Clan, many people would be willing to do anything for him as long as he asked them to. The fact that Lucas had come here to see him told him that it couldn't be good news.
"It's not anything important. I just wanted to ask you to teach Queenie," Lucas said.
"Teach her? What do you mean?" Rocky asked in confusion. He was starting to get a bad feeling.
"I really admire you for your achievements in the field of curing beasts, which has always been the weakness of our Cao Clan over the years. Ever since I saw the peculiar Beast Curing Skills that you performed, I've been hoping that Queenie could learn some basic knowledge of Beast Curing Skills from you before you leave the Cao Mansion," Lucas explained.
"You want me to teach her Beast Curing Skills?" Rocky was surprised. He hadn't expected that Lucas would come to him with such an idea. Of course, it made sense. After all, even Tate, the disciple of the Miracle Beast Curer Immortal Hua, had been defeated by Rocky. Lucas naturally hoped to use Rocky's Beast Curing Skills to help the Cao Clan, but he knew that
l the tasks that he had given the steward had been completed.
Next to the Fallen Flower Lake in the northeast corner of the Cao Mansion, there was a large old building that resembled a warehouse. Rocky and the steward were standing inside.
"Mr. Rookie, this place was built for the workers to rest when they were digging the lake a few years ago. After the lake was completed, this house served no purpose anymore. Since then, it has been used as a warehouse. What do you think of it? If you are not satisfied with it, I will find another place," the steward said in a respectful tone.
"It's good. I like it. Thank you, Thomas." Looking around the spacious place, Rocky nodded with satisfaction.
"Then I will go and ask some workers to bring the supplies and materials that you've collected here. But if those things were put here in this bad weather, I'm afraid that..." Thomas trailed off with a concerned expression.
"It doesn't matter. Just bring them here as soon as possible. I can take care of the rest," Rocky said as he waved his hand.
"Okay, I'll bring some people here this afternoon." Thomas immediately nodded and left.
"I wonder if I can finish refining a spiritual crystal before I return to the Holy Dragon Empire," Rocky murmured to himself.
