Chapter 1098 The Shocking Noise

Alston never expected Lance and Marcia to appear at such a perfect time.

Just then, the defense in front of the Witch Palace was rather weak. The six peerless masters of the Divine Stage who previously fought with Rocky were now scattered all around him. Alston had just left the golden throne, with only a few weak guards around. When Lance and Marcia, each driving a six-star spirit-manipulated beast, suddenly appeared, none of the weak guards could stop them.

Aside from the two mighty beasts and their masters, more than ten Supernal Stage masters arrived as well, including Sabina, Allen, and Lucilla and so on.

"Alston, I've always told you that you are a person with a limited outlook. You wouldn't even be able to see through the trick—luring a tiger away from its cave!" Rocky sneered at Alston who was near him. The reason that Rocky dared to challenge so many strong masters guarding the Witch Palace alone was to buy some time and make it easier for Marcia and Lance to save Lena. The moment he showed up in front of the Witch Palace, he was determined to fight even to the death. In any case, he needed to create a distraction to give his people ample time.

Alston twitched upon hearing Rocky's words, the rage burning red hot across his face. Not only did he realize that he had been fooled by Rocky from the very beginning, but he had completely underestimated him as well. Alston believed that his brother was the same person who had tried to break into the Witch Palace to see Lena back then.

The moment Rocky appeared, there was no doubt that Alston would lose.

"What are you waiting for? Stop them!" Alston ordered the peerless masters at the Divine Stage nearby furiously.

The several masters were also quite shocked by the sudden arrival of Marcia and Lance, two of the Thee Great Generals of the Holy Dragon Empire. They were puzzled by the fact that they entered the Witch Palace by force and that they seemed to be siding with Rocky.

Nevertheless, because Alston was the acting emperor now, none of the m

armies. The numerous human-like and beast-like shadows were being led by Elvis.

"Seize those traitors!" Alston ordered fiercely once he saw that Lena was rescued by Marcia when he noticed that Rocky's reinforcements began to grow in number.

Soon, hundreds of palace guards and spirit manipulators of the Supernal Stage and the Heavenly Stage were locked in a fierce battle with each other.

Although Alston had a lot of troops on his side, Rocky had three great masters fighting alongside him—Marcia, Lance, and Elvis. The battle was an inevitable stalemate!

Rocky smiled with relief once he saw Lena who had been rescued by Marcia. He no longer felt any regret this time.

However, Alston felt otherwise. He was infuriated with rage and embarrassment at his failure. He began to scream, the veins on his forehead throbbing. He rushed towards Rocky and launched a palm attack. The strong spiritual power of the Divine Stage morphed his palm attack into a dragon head with bared teeth and claws that sank into Rocky's chest. In the blink of an eye, the attack swallowed him.

Boom!

From where Rocky stood came a blaring sound. Then, a figure flew a few meters away before crashing to the ground. It remained lying on the ground in silence.

"Basil!" Deafening cries echoed one after the other as they called out to the limp figure on the ground.
