The Medallion

Chapter 1159 Complete The Alliance Agreement

"I heard that you are getting married soon; that's why I came here," Rocky mumbled while crossing his arms over his chest.

"Just leave. If the members of the Wood Clan find you here, they will surely not let you go. I'm not kidding around." Alyssa's face changed drastically. The other spiritual race clans had already found out that Rocky had successfully lifted the curse on Marcia's body during the battle with the Dragon Master Clan. Most of the clans might be skeptical about this news, but they had been secretly paying attention to his every move, and the Wood Clan was no exception to this speculation.

Rocky ignored her plea and continued with his agenda, "I'm here because I'd like to ask you a question."

"What is it?" Alyssa couldn't help but ask.

"Would you like to leave with me?" Rocky asked frankly.

"You already know my answer," Alyssa responded with gravity in her tone.

"That's exactly why I don't want you to sacrifice yourself. Hear me out. If what the Wood Clan desires is only the spiritual treasure, then I will return the other half of their spiritual treasure to them. This is the only solution I can think of as of now. In this way, you won't have to sacrifice yourself anymore," Rocky said as he tried to convince Alyssa.

"What do you mean by that?" Alyssa asked in wonder.

"In fact, the other half of the Wood Clan's spiritual treasure is in my possession and has not been taken away," Rocky replied.

Alyssa, on the other hand, widened her eyes in awe. Immediately, she shook her head and said, "You don't understand what's going on. The Wood Clan is not only after their spiritual treasure. They also

want to protect themselves. At this moment, the Dragon Master Clan has internal strife that has greatly weakened its power, while the Phoenix Master Clan has never been bothered by any other worldly affairs. Therefore, the Wood Clan doesn't want to be the greatest threat to the big and influential Heavenly Demon Clan. Needless to say, the only way for us to end this is to reach an agreement with the Heavenly Demon Clan."

"Then I am wrong about my perception of the Wood Clan. I can't believe that they're much timider than I thought. The way I see it, they are afraid of being targeted by the Heavenly Demon Clan, so they try to use such a method..." Rocky said scornfully.

"You don't understand. The Wood Clan may seem powerful, but in fact, they are also on the verge of decline. Do you know why the Wood Clan tried their best to create the descendants of humans and the Wood Clan beings? One of the reasons was that most of the members of the Wood Clan had already lost their ability to reproduce. Now, only a very small portion of them have the ability. However, the chances of childbirth are still slim. Therefore, for twenty years, the Wood Clan had already no newborn babies. Once wars broke out among the clans of the spiritual race, the Wood Clan would never be able to take any advantage to win, and they would even face a fate of extinction," Alyssa explained.

"If that's the only problem, then, perhaps, it can be solved," Rocky replied, even before she could finish her words. Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDrâ/ma.O(r)g!

However, Alyssa was confused.

"You do know that I have set up a Genome Research Institute in the Holy Dragon Empire, don't you? This gene technology can not only change the spirit-manipulated beast but also change the human and the spiritual race. As long as I am given enough time, maybe I can find a solution to the Wood Clan's population problems," Rocky said in a serious tone.

"But..." Alyssa's eyes sparkled when she heard this as she seemed to have seen a glimmer of hope. However, nothing was still certain. Therefore, even if she believed in Rocky, the Wood Clan might not be able to believe in him.

"If you are willing to leave with me, then I will try my best to help you, just as you helped me before. I'm just returning the favor. And besides, I'm not here alone..." Rocky said firmly and looked out of the treehouse.

"Tell me, why are you doing this? Isn't it good to live the carefree life as the Prince Crimson of the Holy Dragon Empire? Why do you even have to involve yourself in this mess?" Alyssa couldn't help but grumble. She might not show it, but deep inside, she was overjoyed to see Rocky again.

"Laney made me promise to take you back to the Holy Dragon Empire. Moreover, if you'd ask me, I don't think it's necessary for you to make such a huge sacrifice for the Wood Clan," Rocky remarked.

"This is the Wood Clan, and it's not easy to leave it behind. Plus, if they know that you keep the other half of the spiritual treasure, then maybe they will think that you have ulterior motives. I'm afraid you have to stay here too, let alone take me away." Alyssa was also apprehensive at that moment.

"It would be nice if I could take your place as the hostage so you can leave." Rocky smiled softly after finishing his words.

"I'll do as I see fit. But, you'd better leave the Wood Clan with your people, okay? I don't want you to take risks for me. I beg you. I don't want to be marked as a sinner..." Alyssa thought that it was too dangerous for him. After all, they were facing the spiritual race, and she knew how tough they were to deal with.

At that moment, Rocky's eyes narrowed when he saw the determined look on Alyssa's face.

"Well, since you have made up your mind, I have no reason to force you into doing something you don't want." Rocky finally gave in. He gave her a quick nod and turned around, ready to leave. He had not gone far when he heard Alyssa call him, "Wait". Just as he was about to turn around, Alyssa had already pounced to his arms.

Without uttering a single word, Rocky released his grip, then opened the door of the treehouse and walked out.

Meanwhile, after he walked out of the treehouse, the tearful Alyssa turned around and murmured with a bit of pain in her voice, "I'm sorry. I just can't let you take risks for me. Let me solve it myself. I know you're leaving, but at least I got to see you again today for the last time."

Not long after Rocky walked out of the treehouse, the women zoomed towards him and asked, "So, how is it going?"

"It seems that we have to go with our second plan." Although Rocky didn't know what was on Alyssa's mind, he still felt a little uneasy knowing that she did not accept his first plan.

Soon after, the team packed their belongings and left the Wood Clan's place. After all, they weren't allowed to stay there for too long.

Not long after, the Heavenly Demon Clan's team arrived at the Wood Clan to fetch the bride. The person that led the entourage was an elder of a spiritual master of the Heavenly Demon Clan. Moreover, there were several powerful ordinary spiritual beings and more than twenty spiritual slaves present, making the event quite big.

It was true that the Wood Clan only wanted to send Alyssa to the Heavenly Demon Clan this time because they wanted to make an alliance with the latter. Thus, they had to sign the alliance agreement first before they could take Alyssa back. That was why the Heavenly Demon Clan sent an elder of the

spiritual master to represent the patriarch. At that moment, he handed the two agreements written by Patriarch Townsend, in person to the patriarch of the Wood Clan. As soon as the patriarch of the Wood Clan signed the agreements, he gave one of them back to the elder of the spiritual master. All of this signing was needed to fulfill the alliance agreement.

As for the spiritual treasure, they would not give it to the Wood Clan until Alyssa was sent to the Heavenly Demon Clan and got married to Patriarch Townsend.

After securing the alliance agreement, Alyssa was also invited out, along with her dowries, to go back with the team of the Heavenly Demon Clan.

But before they set out to travel, Alyssa suddenly pulled out a dagger from her pocket and pressed it against her neck in front of everyone's presence.
