Ascent of Hero on the Dragon Throne

Rocky followed the mysterious figure all the way. He ran beyond the Crimson City and arrived at the edge of a dense forest.

He looked around and walked into the woods. The figure had disappeared into the darkness of the trees. "Come on out!" he yelled into the forest. "Weren't you trying to lure me here? Well, here I am!"

A figure walked out from behind a huge tree, wearing a large robe which covered the person from head to toe. The figure wasn't well-built. 'A woman?' Rocky wondered, furrowing his brows.

"Who are you? What do you want with me?" he asked warily.

Taking the hood off, the delicate figure stepped up to him.

Rocky's eyes widened in surprise. "You?"

he asked, staring at the figure who turned out to be Cherry.

"Are you surprised to see me?" she asked indifferently.

"I had been in the Myriad Beasts Ground for half a year back then, but I never saw you. But now, you show up in front of me out of the blue. It would be a lie if I said that I am not surprised," Rocky said frankly, narrowing his eyes at her. He didn't believe this was a coincidence; neither was she here for a merry chat.

"That's enough chitchat. I have come to you because I need your help," Cherry admitted, jumping straight to the point.

"You need my help? You are a spiritual master of the Butterfly Divine Clan. Is this related to the spiritual treasure?" he asked. He was intelligent enough to figure out what Cherry was up to. At present, all the spiritual race clans in the Wild Spirit Land were searching for the spiritual treasures. As far as he knew, the spiritual treasure of the Butterfly Divine Clan did not seem to have appeared in the world yet. The clan had long been practically extinct, but it still had many members left, and Cherry was their spiritual master. It was understandable why the Butterfly Divine Clan wanted to get their spiritual treasure.

"Since you already knew, I don't

d was only telling him now because she needed his help.

"You know why," she said, casually glancing at Rocky.

He clenched his fist in anger, but he was also excited. Sue was alive; the guilt that had been buried in his heart was now disappearing.

"So? What do you say? If you don't help me, you will never see her again," Cherry warned.

"Fine, I'll help you. But I need to see Sue right away." Rocky didn't want to lose Sue again. He believed that Cherry was someone who would act on her words. However, he was also still doubtful that this might be a trick, so he had to see Sue in person.

"Sue, come out," Cherry said.

Sue suddenly appeared with another Sky-peeping Pearl in her hand. Her aura at the preliminary level of the Supernal Stage was quite extraordinary. She was completely different from the weak little girl she had been in the past. Both her appearance and temperament had changed; she was now a beauty.

"Sue? Is that really you?" Rocky asked, his voice trembling in excitement. All this time, he had believed that Sue had been killed by Alston because of him. He had always felt guilty about losing her. Now, seeing that Sue was still alive and well, he felt grateful.

"Mr. Bai." Sue's eyes turned red and she threw herself into his arms.
