Chapter 1876 Bad Luck

"Then, I guess the Shura Race will really be in big trouble this time," Rocky said, having some complex
thoughts about it.

"But since the demoness possessed someone from the Shura Race, she won't be able to refresh her
powers in a short time. For the time being, you can relax a little. Currently, the most important thing is
that you can quell the internal strife within the royal family of the Shura Race. This is a more pressing
and urgent matter.

Furthermore, that demoness seems to be very good at scheming and manipulating others. Hence, you
must be careful with everyone that you will encounter. At this point, we don't know if there are already
enemies lurking around you. Once you are betrayed, it might be too late to fix things." Mikayla gave a
fair warning.

"Yeah. If she can even control Prince Enoch, then she really is terrifying!" Rocky nodded, letting out a
serious expression.

"Even after you start taking action, it will not be surprising to see that the situation in the Shura
Continent will become extremely bad. Once the internal strife within the Shura Race became public, the
human race and the spiritual race will definitely take this opportunity to bring the Shura Race down. If
the Shura Continent falls into a large-scale turmoil, it will just accelerate the collapse of the Holy-Evil
World. Therefore, I can only put our hopes to you two to solve this enormous crisis." Since the deities
of the Holy-Evil World could not do anything to interfere, Mikayla could only entrust this mission to
Rocky and Vivian.

"Madam, can I just ask something? Why did you choose Miss Vivian to be my support?" Rocky was
actually itching to ask this since the beginning. He was very curious that of all people, Mikayla chose
Vivian to help him in his mission in the Ghostly Demon Land.



"Well, it's because she had a fortuitous encounter with a rare deity spirit and obtained it," Mikayla
answered straightforwardly.

"Really? I did not expect that." Rocky was surprised that Vivian was actually hiding a secret like this.

"Moreover, that deity spirit is actually my elder sister..." Mikayla continued in a low voice.

"I see... Now it makes sense."

It seemed that the moment Vivian acquired the deity spirit, she had somehow gained some information,
but she did not open it with anyone. After all, what she learned involved some secrets about the
demonic race and the divine race that could not be casually revealed.

"Vivian, I assume that you are aware that what entered you is a deity spirit, right?" Mikayla asked
calmly.

"Well, after the spirit fused with me, I saw some fragments of memory. But I did not expect that she is
actually your elder sister," Vivian replied honestly.

"Back then, in the disastrous battle between the deities and demons, many of our kind died. After that,
they became spirits that drifted towards the Shura Continent. My sister was one of them. In fact,
because Vivian got a hold of my elder sister's spirit, I wanted to choose her as the Godly Genius of the
Ghost Fief. However, she did not appear on the day of the selection. But then afterward, I sensed
Deacon's aura from someone in the crowd..." At this time, Mikayla revealed the main reason why she
chose Rocky as the Godly Genius instead of Vivian. It turned out that it was not really planned.

"That is such an unexpected revelation. Then, it seems that I will have to thank you, Miss Vivian,"
Rocky said with a smile. He realized that if it was not for that coincidence, he would not attain what he
had now.



"Hey! Are you making fun of me?" Vivian pouted and glared at Rocky.

"Anyway, Vivian, the holy power that you possess is extraordinary. I can assure you that if you can
maximize its potential, no one in the Shura Continent will be on par with you aside from this guy. That is
also the main reason why I summoned you here. I want to personally ask you to help him prevent the
catastrophe that is about to befall the Shura Continent," Mikayla uttered firmly, explaining her serious
intention.

"I understand. This is my homeland, so I will try my best to save it," Vivian responded positively.
Previously, when Mikayla explained in her dreams the current situation of the Shura Continent and the
Holy-Evil World, she already knew that it would be very difficult to turn the situation around. But even
after she heard the whole story, she was still firm in doing her part.

"However, you must remember to keep this matter a secret from everyone, even to your closest
relatives," Mikayla sternly reminded.

"Yes, madam. I understand," Vivian replied resolutely.

"All right. It's time for you to go back. Be careful, and always bear in mind the things I told you." Then,
after giving her final instructions, Mikayla waved her sleeve. In an instant, a golden light enveloped
Rocky and Vivian, making them instantly disappear from where they were standing.

Not long after, the two felt a dazzling light shooting on their faces. Upon opening their eyes, they saw
the bright sun and noticed that they were in a plain grassland. The sky was very clear, and a gentle
breeze was blowing among the grasses. Everything looked rather peaceful. In fact, one would suspect
that he was not in the territory of the Shura Race.

"Where are we transported this time?" Vivian narrowed her eyes as she turned towards Rocky.



"I'm not sure either. This might be the first time I am seeing this place." While Rocky looked intently at
their surroundings, he kept wondering if this beautiful scenery actually existed in the Shura Race.
However, he also thought that there was no reason for Mikayla to transfer them outside the territory of
the Shura Race.

However, while the two were still confused as to where they were, they suddenly heard a familiar voice
shouting from afar. As they looked in the direction of the voice, they saw a delicate figure quickly flying
towards them.

"Whew! I finally spotted you two. We were looking around for quite some time, and we thought that you
were not teleported back yet." It was none other than Valeria.

"Hmm, there might have been a time difference during the teleportation process. That is why we came
back a little later than the rest. By the way, where are Princess Layla and the rest?" Rocky asked,
diverting the topic.

"All of them are over there. You two are the only ones missing," Valeria replied, pointing to a spot about
a hundred meters away.

"So, where are we right now?" Rocky asked Valeria.

"Well, according to Princess Layla, this place is very likely to be the birthplace of the Shura Race. It
seems that this was where our civilization started and where our ancestors began reproducing," Valeria
informed.

"The birthplace of the Shura Race, huh?" Rocky repeated and did not ask anything more.

Soon enough, the three of them were able to arrive where Layla and the rest of the team were.



Upon seeing that Valeria found and fetched both Rocky and Vivian, Layla was finally able to breathe a
sigh of relief. It was as if a huge boulder was lifted off her chest.

"Your Royal Highness, I think you are the only one who knows about this place. Do you know how we
can get out of here?" Rocky asked directly.

"This area is isolated from the rest of the territory of the Shura Race. Hence, you can see that it still
looks like a fairy wonderland. If I am not mistaken, the exit should be near the endless mountains over
there. Those mountains are the barriers protecting this place and serve as the boundary to the other
places," Layla said, looking into the distant mountains that surrounded the area.

"I see. Then, we should get there as soon as possible. We cannot let Prince Enoch and his men return
to the royal family before us. Otherwise, we don't know what they might do next." Rocky did not say
anything directly, but Layla had a hunch about what he was trying to say. Thus, she just nodded and
agreed.

Immediately after, Layla ordered her team to set out.

Then, three days later, they finally arrived at the foot of the mountain range. Just as Layla suspected,
they were able to find the exit after searching for about half a day. The exit was actually a narrow
passage formed from cracks on the stone walls.

After they got to the other side of the passage, they saw the barren topography that was supposed to
be the normal appearance of the territory of the Shura Race. Hence, it meant that they had finally
exited the Ghostly Demon Land.

"Your Royal Highness, I suggest that you remember the location of this entrance and set up an
enchanted barrier around it. We don't know, but it might come in handy in the near future," Rocky
suddenly proposed.



Layla also thought that it was a good idea, so she immediately drew a topographic map according to
the terrain that she could see around. Then, she established an enchanted barrier to seal the hidden
entrance.

"All right. That should do it! What should we do now?" Layla quickly asked as she turned to Rocky.

"Hmm. I am thinking that only the two of us should go back to the royal family. At the same time, Valeria
and Miss Vivian will accompany the rest of the team back to the Ghost Fief. They will wait there for
further orders depending on the situation inside the royal family." Rocky made the arrangement
decisively. He was actually worried that something unpredictable might have already happen while they
were away, so he did not think that it was a wise idea to bring back all Princess Layla's trusted men to
the royal family just yet.

"Okay. Let's do that." Both Layla and Valeria nodded without objection.

Afterward, Rocky summoned Rubygon and rode it together with Layla. At his order, Rubygon
immediately took off.
