Chapter 1537 I&##x27;m Not Your Sweetheart

"What the hell is this place? It's so creepy and disgusting!" Eunice couldn't help but comment as she
saw the inside of the treehouse. Her face distorted and she felt very anxious.

"We cannot dawdle in this place for long. We have to leave as soon as possible," Rocky remarked with
a serious expression. According to his intuition, the owner of the treehouse must be an evil person.
That was the only clear explanation of what they saw in there.

"But the Army-blessing Scroll must be here. We have to find it at all costs..." Eunice said hesitantly.

"I'll stay here and look for it, but you should get out of here and find a safe place to hide first," Rocky
insisted. He thought that it would be too risky if both of them stayed in the eerie place. If someone had
to stay, Rocky firmly decided that it had to be him.

"What? I can't just leave you here..." Of course, Eunice argued because she was also worried about
Rocky's safety.

"Come on, give me the remaining page." Obviously, Rocky wouldn't listen to Eunice's complaint. He
hurriedly asked for the remaining page of the Army-blessing Scroll to make her understand that he had
already made up his mind.

At the same time, they suddenly felt an extremely strong aura coming closer at an incredible speed.
The two of them involuntarily exchanged glances because they perceived that the aura had actually
reached the Emperor Realm, meaning that the incoming warrior must be extremely powerful and
dangerous.

"Be quick! Get into my Magic Spiritual Space!" Rocky shouted as he opened his Magic Spiritual Space.
Before Eunice could even utter another word, he pushed her into the space and closed it immediately
after. Then, he also rushed into the room that was filled with corpses, hid in a dark corner, and
suppressed his aura as much as he could.



Not long after, Rocky heard some footsteps and groans from struggling.

"Humph! Although I failed to find those two guys, I still found a good experimental object. This girl has a
special talent. I think I can still succeed if I use her body!" an old woman's voice echoed abruptly
throughout the house in a strange and hoarse tone.

A few seconds later, Rocky, who was still hiding in the corner of the room, saw a delicate figure thrown
into the room where he was. The girl was instantly frightened at the sight of all the corpses all over the
room that her face turned ghastly pale.

Initially, Rocky tried to remain cool and composed, but when he had the opportunity to take a clear look
at the girl's face, he couldn't help but grit his teeth and clench his fist. It turned out to be Carla, who had
parted with him and Eunice as soon as they arrived in the Spiritual Sea Region.

He also noticed that Carla's acupuncture points were sealed, which was why she couldn't move freely
or even make a sound. At the same time, her back was facing Rocky so she didn't notice that he was
actually there hiding in the corner.

Even when he saw this situation, Rocky didn't dare to act rashly. With the strength at the Emperor
Realm, the old woman would instantly find him as soon as he released a hint of his aura. Moreover,
even with his current strength, he wasn't sure that he could easily escape from the hands of a warrior
at the Emperor Realm. Additionally, he couldn't just ignore and leave Carla in this kind of situation.
Therefore, he had no other choice but to wait some more and see how things would develop. Maybe he
could find an opportunity later to take her away and escape from the house without having to face the
old woman.

Soon enough, another figure came staggering into the room and turned out to be the old woman
herself. She had a hunchback, a pockmarked face, and twisted facial features. As she approached
Carla, she suddenly stretched her hands out, which were like a pair of withered claws, and instantly



peeled off Carla's clothes. Then, she dragged Carla and tied her into the wooden pillar in the center of
the room.

With a look of embarrassment and anger, Carla gave a cold glare at the old woman in front of her. She
didn't expect that she would fall into this kind of situation and all she wanted was to teach the old
woman a lesson.

"Ha-ha! You're so pitiful, aren't you?" The old woman looked satisfied as she stared back at Carla and
let out a mocking smile. Then, she bit her finger until blood came out. With it, she drew a strange rune
on Carla's porcelain-like skin. Weirdly enough, the blood instantly permeated into her skin and formed a
tattoo-like mark on her body.

"Be honored that you're going to offer your body to me. Using you as a new vessel, I will be able to
meet him again," the old woman remarked in a gruff voice. It was pretty evident that her turbid eyes
were full of evil desires.

Meanwhile, except for feeling angry from the bottom of her heart, Carla could do nothing. She was like
a lamb that was tied down and waiting to be slaughtered. At this point, she was actually losing all
hopes of getting out of the old woman's lair alive.

'It seems that this old woman wants to take over Carla's body. She must be going to use some kind of
forbidden technique and ritual to transfer her soul. I can't let her accomplish her goal!' Rocky thought,
determined to help Carla no matter what.

After putting the blood mark on Carla's body, the old woman eventually turned around and walked out
of the room.

Rocky instantly knew that this was his only opportunity to make a move. Otherwise, his chances of
saving Carla and escaping that place would diminish as soon as the old woman came back. So,
without any hesitation, he walked out of the corner of the room and showed himself in front of Carla.



Of course, she never expected that Rocky would suddenly appear out of nowhere, so she was
extremely shocked. At the same time, she realized that she was completely naked and that Rocky
could see everything. Hence, her face blushed crimson in embarrassment.

"Don't worry. I'll get you out of here." Rocky immediately pulled out his Frozen Wind Dagger and untied
Carla from the wooden pillar.

He was about to send her into his Magic Spiritual Space when suddenly, an overwhelmingly evil
spiritual power rushed from behind him. Sensing the imminent danger, Rocky quickly held Carla firmly
in his arms and retreated as fast as he could. He leaped out of the window of the room and flew down
to the ground under the treehouse.

However, before he could safely land on the ground, Rocky suddenly noticed that the sky above him
changed its color. Then, a giant, blood-red cover emerged and instantly enveloped the area within a
radius of about a hundred meters. Rocky swiftly dashed towards the edge of the giant cover, but when
he was already close to it, a tremendous wave of evil force surged out, preventing him from getting out.

Seeing that the situation had quickly turned to be very unfavorable, he decided to open his Magic
Spiritual Space. But when he was already trying to do so, he found out that he couldn't open it within
the bounds of the giant cover. It seemed that the old woman was so powerful that she could even seal
a Magic Spiritual Space in her territory.

"Give her back to me!" A sullen voice suddenly resounded from behind Rocky. It turned out that the old
woman had already caught up with him.

Since he couldn't get out, Rocky had no choice but to turn around and face the old woman. However,
when the old woman saw Rocky's face, her grumpy expression instantly vanished and was replaced
with excitement.



"S-sweetheart? What are you doing here? Are you finally here for me?" The old woman tried to
approach Rocky as her body slightly trembled.

Hearing this, Rocky furrowed his brows and was utterly confused. Then, he stepped back and
responded vigilantly, "I'm not your sweetheart. You must be mistaking me for someone else."

"How is that possible? You're the spitting image of him!" the old woman retorted firmly.

"Madam, not to be rude, but you're an old lady. The person you're looking for should be about the same
age as you, right? Will he be as young as me?" Rocky asked, trying to pound some sense into her.

"I know what I'm saying. He should look as young as you. In fact, I should also appear as young and
beautiful as that girl. But those hateful old men cursed me when I was exiled in this place. As a result, I
lost my beauty and my youthful body!" the old woman exclaimed as she reminisced about what
happened to her in the past.

"Really? Why would they exile you in this place?" Rocky continued to ask some questions to keep the
old woman preoccupied as he tried to find a chance to escape.

"I just killed a few of their disciples who offended me. But those bastards shamelessly ganged up on
me and even sent me here in the Spiritual Sea Region! Now, I can never leave this place," the old
woman angrily explained through gritted teeth.

"Well, I do think that you deserve it," Rocky answered bluntly.

"Sweetheart, how could you say that to me? You're so cruel," the old woman replied with a gloomy look
on her face.

"I already told you that I'm not your sweetheart. You have the wrong person," Rocky corrected her with
a straight face.



"Are you telling the truth?" Seeing that Rocky continued to say those heartless words, the old woman
started to be convinced that they were not the same person.

"Of course. I have nothing to do with an old woman like you," Rocky responded with contempt.

"Then why do you look like him? Are you trying to bewitch me? Despicable scum! I will peel off that
face of yours!" Hearing Rocky's words, the old woman glared at him with bloodshot eyes. She was
instantly filled with rage from the embarrassment of thinking that Rocky was her long lost significant
other.
