Chapter 967 Rocky And Alyssa's Secret

Rocky's eyes narrowed as he heard what Alyssa had to say. He was not the type to give up easily, and there was no way he would sit around and wait for death. After a quick thought, he turned around and looked at the ancient spiritual beast manipulated by the Dragon-shaped Soul Beast. He stared at it for a moment and then looked at the endless black abyss under his feet. Without a word, he reached out and grabbed Alyssa's waist.

"What are you doing?" asked Alyssa. She was shocked by Rocky's sudden boldness. Her beautiful eyes lit up as she felt Rocky's arm around her. She wanted to protest, but she did not want Rocky to see the blush that suddenly colored her cheeks.

"Take us up. I was just in the state of Spirit Possession, so I have little strength left. I need your help on this," Rocky said, as he pointed at the ancient spiritual beast.

"Go up? Do you want the spiritual beast to take us out of here? Rocky, we are at the bottom of the cave. With its size, how can it take us out?" Alyssa shook her head as she tried to reason out. She could not imagine what Rocky was trying to accomplish.

"You said so yourself. The Mysterious Cave would collapse anytime. Then that would be an opportunity for us to go out. After the cave collapses, the ground above it will definitely collapse as well. At that time, we can go out. But you have to hurry, or we will be buried alive," Rocky urged.

This time, Alyssa understood what Rocky wanted to do. It was risky, but there was no other way. Calmly, she took him to the back of the ancient spiritual beast with her.

"I'm counting on you." Rocky conveyed his trust with the Dragon-shaped Soul Beast using his spiritual sense.

As it received Rocky's message, the ancient spiritual beast spread its wings and took flight. Its four magnificent wings flew swiftly and with great power. The moment the cliff collapsed and fell into the black abyss, it left the ground and maneuvered carefully deep into the abyss.

By this time, a large part of the altar had collapsed. Without the altar, the Mysterious Cave crumbled on a large scale, just as what Alyssa said. The massive cras

iritual beast was unsealed and was removed from the abyss. No logic or reason would convince the Wood Clan to allow it to happen.

Rocky shrugged and smiled, as if it was the most natural thing to happen.

"By the way, the sealed ancient spiritual beast does not possess a soul. Why did it move freely? What did you do to it?" Alyssa was not convinced. She knew that Rocky must have done something to bring the ancient spiritual beast back to life.

"You know I can't tell you." Rocky answered Alyssa with a smile. He realized he could not fool her, so he used his charm on her. Anyway, he knew Alyssa would do nothing to harm him.

Sure enough, Alyssa only glared at Rocky. She knew very well that she could not force him to admit anything. With a feeling of hopelessness, she gave up.

Before long, Alyssa took Rocky to the tree house hanging above the moon-shaped lake. The two entered the tree house in silence.

"I'm sorry. I made you worry." As soon as they entered, Alyssa knelt down in front of the translucent curtain.

"I'm relieved that you came back safe and sound." The voice behind the curtain was very calm. Then it continued, "What exactly happened inside the Mysterious Cave? I felt another powerful earthquake just now."

"This is what happened..." On their way to the tree house, Alyssa had already thought of an excuse. She discarded the truth, and in a calm voice narrated her made-up story.
