Chapter 1117 You Will Surely Die

"Did you tell General Marcia about this?" As Bryant studied Rocky, he could not help but praise the prince internally. Rocky was so much younger than him, and yet, he always showed great courage no matter the circumstance. Suddenly, he felt ashamed of his inferiority.

"She will never agree, so I want to ask you for a favor, Chief Bryant. When the time comes..." Rocky leaned closer to him and whispered the details secretively.

As he listened, the frown on Bryant's face grew bigger and bigger. He hesitated for a short while, but he nodded his permission in the end because the prince had made this plan and he had no reason to object. As a loyal courtier of the Holy Dragon Empire, he naturally had to protect the emperor.

Seeing that Bryant was receptive to his wishes, Rocky smiled gratefully at him. "Thank you, Chief Bryant."

"Prince Basil, if you are lucky enough to get through this safe and sound, and if one day you can ascend the throne, you can count on my support and the support of the Ximen Clan," Bryant promised as he patted Rocky on his shoulder with his thick and sturdy palm. In his mind, Rocky had shown that he truly deserved to be admired. He had exhibited the character of a great leader, and as a prince, he always took the lead in dealing with any difficult tasks. In a word, he was exemplary.

"Well, we'll talk about that later. But still, thank you," Rocky said calmly, as he turned away.

Soon, the sun fell from its perch in the sky, covering the whole land in darkness.

The rescue team set out as soon as the night fell, and went to where they suspected that the emperor was imprisoned. Marcia took the lead, so their journey went smoothly, but they still had to be careful. The supernatural beasts dared not step into the Dragon Master Clan's territory, but they could not let their guard down as the danger was around them. If their whereabouts were exposed, the entire Dragon Master Clan could surround them in an instant.

About two hours later, after circling half of the Dragon Master Clan's territory, the rescue team finally arrived outside a valley. The entrance to the valley was in the shape of a very steep slope, and they could see faint lights flashing inside.

"General Marcia, what is this place?" Rocky asked, studying the valley curiously.

"This is the Dead Valley of the Dragon Master Clan, a place where they imprison those who have offended the Dragon Master Clan, or have violated their taboos. Moreover, once they enter this valley, they will not be able to leave for the rest of their lives, so mos

reams that resonated through the whole Dead Valley.

"Father, where are you?" There were too many holes on the cliff! Rocky had been searching for a long time, but he could not find the emperor. Robin and Ken were also looking for his father in two other places, but they made no progress either. In the end, his exasperation led him to cry out loud, and he hoped that the emperor would hear him and answer.

As he passed by one of the wall holes that served as a holding cell, he suddenly detected an amazing aura coming from inside. It felt like he was facing a huge wave with overwhelming power, which made him stop involuntarily.

"Young man, I know where to find the person you are looking for! However, as a human, how can you break into the Dragon Master Clan to save a person? Do you want to die so badly?" A deep voice echoed from behind the wall.

"Do you know where my father is?" Rocky immediately asked, surprised.

"Of course," the voice inside the cave answered at once. Rocky didn't believe him at first. His eyes narrowed suspiciously at the hole in the wall and asked, "Well, are you going to tell me where he is? Or maybe you want something in exchange." He became quiet for a few seconds as if he was thinking, then he asked again, "Do you want me to let you out in exchange for the information about my father's whereabouts? Besides, how do I know if you are telling the truth?"

"Ha-ha, if I want to get out of here, how can the Dead Valley block me? I just want to remind you that you are digging your own grave by doing this. You may still survive if you leave now, but once the spiritual masters of the Dragon Master Clan arrive, you will surely die!" The voice laughed arrogantly.
