Chapter 1141 Not Too Late

The businessman in the blue robe, in particular, was shivering all over because he had just ridiculed Rocky, Prince Crimson of the Holy Dragon Empire, in public. Insulting a royal member was a serious crime, and he could be beheaded for this.

Needless to say, the most embarrassed among the lot was the young man who had tried to pick on Rocky. He was still in the shock, unable to believe that he had offended such a mighty figure in the empire, in front of whom even his father had to kneel down. He swiftly crawled over to Rocky and begged for mercy. "Your Royal Highness, please forgive me! I failed to recognize you and I deserve punishment. But please, spare my life, Your Royal Highness!"

Ignoring his pleas, Rocky walked towards Mia and said, "Please, get up. You don't need to do this."

Mia raised her head slowly. When Rocky nodded to her with a smile, she stood up, but the other businessmen were still kneeling down on the floor with their foreheads touching the floor. Their hands were visibly shivering in fear. Rocky continued to ignore them.

"Why didn't you tell the butler who you were? I wouldn't have made you wait here in this living room if I had known it was you," Mia grumbled. If Rocky had informed her sooner, he wouldn't have had to endure such offense from the businessmen, which now annoyed her even more.

"Well, I wasn't in a hurry. Besides, you seem to have a lot of guests." Rocky shrugged with a mischievous chuckle.

"They are not my guests," she said, looking at the men groveling on the floor. She turned back to Rocky. "What brought you all the way here? Is there anything I can do for you?" she asked curiously.

"Oh, I'm only here to express my appreciation. You did a huge favor for me," Rocky said with a smile.

"Favor?" Mia was confused at first, but then understood what he was talking about. Shaking her head, she continued, "That's very kind of you, but I only did what I had to do."

"I have to admit that you made things much easier for me. Here, I brought you a small gift," he said as he took out a box and handed it to Mia.

She hesitated for a moment, but couldn't refuse. Accepting the gift, she opened it. With a loud gasp, she stared at the three medium grade Dark Heaven Eggs. Rocky had given her something very precious in such a small box; it was absolutely outrageous.

The wealthy businessmen, who were still on their knees, gaped in stunned silence at Rocky's generosity. Medium grade Dark Heaven Eggs were rare treasures, nearly impossible to find in

notice.

Mia said nothing, but turned to Rocky instead.

He looked around and asked, "Are there any spirit-manipulated beasts here that you are unable to cure?"

The person in charge stole a glance at Mia, who gave him a nod. He answered respectfully, "Yes, there is one. The beast was brought here the other day, and the illness is deeply rooted in its system. Our beast curers are feeling helpless. It's a headache for us to watch it die."

"Hmm..." Rocky nodded. Then, he turned to Mia. "Get us a room. Bring in that sick spirit-manipulated beast, and assemble the beast curers of this farm."

Mia gestured to the person in charge to follow the orders. He bowed and left in a hurry.

"Are you going to cure the beast?" she asked.

"Be patient. You should witness it with your own eyes," Rocky replied.

A few minutes later, the person in charge came out and led Rocky and Mia to the assigned room. The badly sick spirit-manipulated beast had been placed on an operating table in the center. It lay there still, without making a sound. If not for the heaving of its breast, Mia would have deemed it dead.

Soon after, eight beast curers gathered in the room.

"Is there anyone here who can suggest a treatment for this beast? Or do you all believe that there is nothing to do except wait for it to die?" Rocky asked the beast curers.

"Sir, we've done everything we can. It's too late," Yuri, the famous and the oldest beast curer in the farm replied with a shake of his head.

Rocky smiled. "This spirit-manipulated beast isn't as ill as you think, and it's not too late to save it," he said with certainty after quickly inspecting the sick beast on the table.
