Chapter 1682 A Race

The very next moment, Valeria's heart pounded so hard as if it was going to explode. It seemed that the
young woman had never experienced something like this before.

But soon enough, she realized that she had been taken advantage of.

Actually, Rocky didn't mean to do it, and everything was just an accident. But it didn't really matter
because he knew that Valeria would not believe him. At this point, he knew that he was in huge trouble.

As expected, Valeria quickly pushed him away, revealing a vermilion-colored face. Upon seeing
Rocky's face with her beautiful eyes, she was utterly shocked. She recognized that it was actually the
same guy that she met by the lake last time. In her mind, Rocky was the shameless guy with a naked
upper body that injured her.

At this point, Valeria was seething in anger because of extreme embarrassment. New and old hatred
came surging from within her heart. As she stared at Rocky, her mind only wanted one thing—to kill
him.

Of course, as an inexperienced maiden, Valeria had no clue when it came to this aspect. Furthermore,
she was the Godly Genius of the Flower Fief who was known to be pure and inviolable. But now, she
was taken advantage of by a man that she didn't even know. If word about it spread out, it would be
such a disgrace to the Flower Fief.

Therefore, she only had one idea going on in her mind.

'I must kill this pervert no matter what!'

Obviously, Rocky wanted to explain that it was all a misunderstanding. However, before he could even
say anything, he already sensed the vicious aura coming from Valeria. His hair instantly stood on end
and he felt that he had to run as fast as he could if he wanted to live.



In an instant, Valeria's delicate body was enveloped by countless flowers. Then, in a flash, she bolted
out and chased after him.

At the same time, Rocky felt that the aura coming from Valeria was very oppressive. It was pretty
obvious that she had fully activated the power of her martial spirit. Hence, he knew that it was too late
to explain anything at this point. Since he did not want to fight her, all he could do was dash away.

Thus, as soon as Valeria approached him, Rocky immediately used his incredible movement skill and
ran away. In the blink of an eye, he was able to leave the Fragrance Palace.

"Where do you think you are going?" Seeing this, Valeria got more annoyed and chased after him
outside the Fragrance Palace.

Obviously, Valeria's overall strength was above Rocky's. Hence, it was not easy for him to outrun her.
Moreover, her cultivation method primarily involved improving her speed. Because of this, Rocky's only
advantage was his familiarity with the layout of the leader's mansion.

Soon enough, the two of them began a wild game of tag around the entire mansion.

Initially, Valeria thought that it would only take her a moment to catch up with Rocky. However, she
soon realized that even though his strength was not on par with hers, his movement skill was not
inferior to her Flower Pace. Moreover, because he was more familiar with the layout of the mansion,
she was not able to close their gap.

As the two of them ran around, it soon attracted the attention of the people in the leader's mansion.

However, since both of them were incredibly fast, only some officials, who were at the Emperor Realm
or at the peak of the King Realm, were able to follow them.



Of course, they had no idea why Valeria was chasing after Rocky. However, it didn't really matter
because all they wanted was to see who was faster. Hence, the officials used their movement skills to
follow after them and enjoy the race.

As a result, the original chase became a competition. Currently, Rocky was taking the lead, but Valeria
was just close behind. And the officials were behind them.

"This is strange! Valeria's strength should be way above our Godly Genius's. Why can't she catch up
with him after chasing for so long?"

"That is true. In fact, I can even sense that our Godly Genius is more powerful in terms of movement
skill!"

"But that should be impossible! I heard that Valeria is Flora's adopted daughter, so she must have
learned the Flower Pace already. It was such a remarkable movement skill that even in the entire
Shura Race, it is incomparable. Well, of course, except for the royal family's movement skill."

"So, what does that mean? Is our Godly Genius really gifted?"

Seeing that Valeria could not catch up with Rocky no matter how hard she tried, they were absolutely
flabbergasted.

Time passed very quickly, and it turned out that Valeria had already been chasing after Rocky for four
straight hours. From the officials' point of view, they couldn't really tell which one was faster. Although
Rocky never trailed, Valeria also never lagged by a huge distance.

As Rocky was running for his life, Valeria was pretty determined to chase him down to kill him. At the
same time, although the officials wanted to continue following the two, they became rather impatient.
After all, they still had work to do. However, they were also eager to know the result of this race.



Soon enough, more and more officials appeared and joined to see the race.

In fact, more than half of the members of the leader's mansion were already chasing after the two
Godly Geniuses.

Then, six hours had already passed. During that time, they had been running at full speed using their
spiritual power. Even a warrior at the Emperor Realm might not last that long if this continued.

Meanwhile, although Valeria's speed was not decreasing, she could already feel that her breathing was
becoming heavy, and she was starting to pant. It seemed that she was already getting tired.

On the other hand, Rocky still seemed to be running leisurely. As he fought countless peerless masters
in the past and acquired lots of unique fighting skills in the Scarlet Heaven Jade, he eventually knew
how to efficiently conserve his spiritual power and circulate it.

Of course, the other major factor was the Flaming Ogre Formula.

Although Rocky wasn't aware of it yet, the Flaming Ogre Formula itself was one of the long lost secret
skills that had been passed down the Shura Race's royal family for a long time. Its power lied in the fact
that it could absorb the masculine energy of heaven and earth that could be readily utilized by its user.

Therefore, as they ran under the sun, the masculine power that Rocky absorbed was enough to make
up for the consumption of his spiritual power. That was why even though he was just at the peak of the
King Realm, he seemed to be more powerful than Valeria, who was at the Emperor Realm.

Finally, Valeria realized that it would not be a good idea to continue chasing Rocky like this. However,
since she did not want to let him off the hook that easily, she decided to use another plan. Suddenly,
she took out a wooden flute from her pocket and played it.

Out of nowhere, Rocky felt that the ground beneath his feet was rumbling.



Boom!

With a loud sound, several thick and long roots emerged from the ground as if they had lives of their
own. Caught off guard, Rocky tried his best to avoid these roots that were attempting to wrap around
his limbs.

"Is that another one of Flora's unique skills, the Spiritual Flower Technique? I heard that it can easily
control the flowers and trees according to the user's will."

"That is true. It is even said that the technique was created by Flora herself. It was very famous and
only very few powerful people could deal with it!"

"I also heard that the royal family had taken a strong interest in that technique, so they intended to
absorb it into the royal family's secret technique. However, they were rejected by Flora. It seems that
the technique is indeed extraordinary!"

The officials who continued to follow them were shocked the moment they saw Valeria use the Spiritual
Flower Technique.

At the same time, Rocky did not expect Valeria to possess such an astounding skill that could freely
manipulate all kinds of plants with her spiritual power. It was his first time seeing this kind of ability, and
he was amazed. At the back of his mind, he was now realizing why the Shura Race was so powerful.
