Chapter 1286 Go To The Forbidden Area

"It took me a lot of effort to get this colored pearl for you. How are you going to thank me?" Alyssa
asked with a soft smile on her face.

"Let me think. How about I marry you?" Rocky playfully teased.

"Oh, you wish." Alyssa put on a lovely smile, but then she suddenly became serious and added, "After
their rebirth, the calamity beasts will surely harm the life in all of the countries built by humans. I heard
the news that a pestilence broke out on the Holy Dragon Empire's border. Many said that the infected
people would become horrifying corpses."

"Yes, that's right. The situation is really not good right now." Rocky nodded in agreement. His
playfulness earlier was gone now.

"The situation of the Timber Deity Empire is also not good now. Many rivers have become dry because
of the power of the calamity beasts. And besides that, it hasn't rained for a month already. Thousands
of people are starving to death..." Alyssa deeply sighed. She was extremely worried about their
situation

"Tell me, is there anything I can do for you?" Rocky asked seriously.

"No, it's alright. You can't offer help to those who are far away from you anyway. By the way, where are
the others?" Alyssa felt strange when she saw that Rocky was alone. He was always surrounded by so
many women on a normal day.

"I asked Sabina and the others to do something for me. Meanwhile, Isis and Nigel have returned to the
Imperial City. So, I'm the only one left here now," Rocky briefly replied.

"I want to stay with you for a few days, but my brother asked me to go back to the Timber Deity Empire
right away. It's such a pity," Alyssa said with regret. It was a rare opportunity to be completely alone



with Rocky, but she had no other choice. There were a lot of things waiting for her to deal with in the
Timber Deity Empire.

"There will surely be another chance in the future." Rocky faintly smiled.

"But I can stay here for a couple of hours."

Rocky had already collected eight of the colored pearls including the one sent by Alyssa, so there was
only one left. He planned to go back to the Imperial City first and ask the emperor about the previous
clues left by the Witch of the Holy Dragon Empire. He desperately wanted to find out the whereabouts
of the last colored pearl.

After making some arrangements, Rocky finally returned to the Imperial City. He headed first to
General Lance's mansion to go see Isis, her son, and Sue. After that, he went to the Palace City to
meet his father.

The health of his father was getting worse and worse each day. He remained in bed almost every day
and that worried Rocky. However, as soon as the emperor saw that Rocky already came back, his face
immediately became cheerful and a huge smile appeared on his wrinkled face.

"Father, take this bottle of magical saliva. This might help you later." Rocky's heart sank when he saw
his father. He immediately took out a bottle of magical saliva from his pocket and handed it to him.

"No, thanks, my son. I've already accepted that my body can never recover no matter what kind of
magical pills or potion I take," the emperor said as he pushed the bottle back and shook his head.

Rocky deeply frowned at this.

"By the way, you have something important to deal with this time, correct?" the emperor directly asked.
He knew that Rocky was busy dealing with a lot of things. Not too long ago, he had solved a crisis in



the Holy Dragon Empire.

"I've already found the eighth colored pearl," Rocky immediately said as he took out the wooden box
that Alyssa gave him.

"Oh, really? That's excellent news," the emperor excitedly said.

"So, Father, I came back to ask you if I can find where the ninth colored pearl is based on the clues
previously left by the Witch," Rocky bluntly said.

"The places related to the clues left by that Witch have already been searched thoroughly. I'm afraid it's
exceedingly difficult to find the ninth one," the emperor seriously said.

"Maybe we somehow missed some other important clues," Rocky remarked. He was running out of
ideas on where to find the ninth colored pearl.

"Well, maybe you are right," the emperor said with a nod and was about to tell Rocky the clues left by
the Witch. However, at that very moment, a delicate figure suddenly came in and said, "There's no
need to check the clues again. I know where the ninth colored pearl is!"

Hearing that, Rocky and the emperor immediately looked at the figure. It was Lena who just came in.

"Lena, are you serious? You know where the ninth one is?" Rocky asked in surprise. Obviously, he
didn't expect this to happen.

Lena nodded her head seriously, but looked at Rocky in a weird way.

"How did you know where the ninth one is?" the emperor curiously asked. He never heard Lena
mention it before.



"Just half a month ago, I had a dream where that Witch told me the whereabouts of the ninth colored
pearl," Lena replied to them.

"What? A dream?" Although Rocky felt a little strange by this news, he knew that the Witch would likely
use a dream to foretell something. So, there must be some reason why Lena had this dream.

"But I don't want you to take the holy treasure of the Dragon Master Clan, Basil," Lena suddenly said.
Her face was somewhat terrified.

"What? Why?" Rocky looked at her in total confusion.

"Because I had a terrible dream yesterday. In that dream, you were wearing the holy treasure and you
looked very terrible. You also killed many members from the spiritual race and were being hunted by
the spiritual race clans in the dream!" Lena said in a trembling voice. It was obvious that she was
horrified by what she dreamt.

Seeing this, Rocky immediately stepped forward and held Lena tightly in his arms, comforting her and
said, "It's just a dream, Lena. That might even never happen. Please don't worry about me!"

"But I have a bad feeling about it," Lena said as she bit her pink lips.

"Lena, please trust me. I'm being very cautious. The holy treasure is especially important. It would be
useful not only to the Holy Dragon Empire but also to deal with the calamity beasts," Rocky explained.
If what the Holy Lord said was true, then it would be inevitable to find the Dragon Master Clan's holy
treasure.

Lena hesitated for a moment. Of course, she trusted Rocky, but she also didn't want to see anything
bad happen to him.

"So, Lena, could you finally tell me where the last colored pearl is?" Rocky asked gently.



"It's in the royal forbidden area with the remains of that Witch," Lena replied to Rocky.

"Father, can you give me now the other seven colored pearls?" After hearing the information from
Lena, Rocky immediately turned to look at his father.

"Lena, go get them at once and give them to Basil!" the emperor said to Lena as he opened his Magic
Spiritual Space with his spiritual power.

With that, Lena entered the Magic Spiritual Space. A moment later, she came out holding a palm-sized
round golden box and handed it over to Rocky.

After Rocky opened the box, he saw that the seven colored pearls were arranged in a circle and placed
in grooves. Then, he put the eighth colored pearl in one of the last two empty grooves.

"I'll go with you. I'm the only one who knows the location of the sarcophagus where that Witch was
buried..." Lena knew that Rocky would immediately go to the royal forbidden area, so she said to him
directly.

Rocky nodded and said goodbye to his father. Then, he left the Palace City with Lena and headed for
the royal family's forbidden area.
