The Medallion novel Chapter 1169

Rocky followed the mysterious figure all the way. He ran beyond the Crimson City and arrived at the edge of a dense forest.

He looked around and walked into the woods. The figure had disappeared into the darkness of the trees. "Come on out!" he yelled into the forest. "Weren't you trying to lure me here? Well, here I am!"

A figure walked out from behind a huge tree, wearing a large robe which covered the person from head to toe. The figure wasn't well-built. 'A woman?' Rocky wondered, furrowing his brows.

"Who are you? What do you want with me?" he asked warily.

Taking the hood off, the delicate figure stepped up to him.

Rocky's eyes widened in surprise. "You?"

he asked, staring at the figure who turned out to be Cherry.

"Are you surprised to see me?" she asked indifferently.

"I had been in the Myriad Beasts Ground for half a year back then, but I never saw you. But now, you show up in front of me out of the blue. It would be a lie if I said that I am not surprised," Rocky said frankly, narrowing his eyes at her. He didn't believe this was a coincidence; neither was she here for a merry chat.

"That's enough chitchat. I have come to you because I need your help," Cherry admitted, jumping straight to the point.

"You need my help? You are a spiritual master of the Butterfly Divine Clan. Is this related to the spiritual treasure?" he asked. He was intelligent enough to figure out what Cherry was up to. At present, all the spiritual race clans in the Wild Spirit Land were searching for the spiritual treasures. As far as he knew, the spiritual treasure of the Butterfly Divine Clan did not seem to have appeared in the world yet. The clan had long been practically extinct, but it still had many members left, and Cherry was their spiritual master. It was understandable why the Butterfly Divine Clan wanted to get their spiritual treasure.

"Since you already knew, I don't have to beat around the bush. I need your help to get the spiritual treasure of my clan," she replied calmly. Rocky's reaction was within her expectations.

"As a spiritual master, you should know that the appearance of spiritual treasures will bring nothing but disaster into this world. The Wild Spirit Land is in endless disputes because of the continuous appearance of the spiritual treasures. Does the exterminated Butterfly Divine Clan want to be involved in the disputes as well? Why on earth do you want it?" Rocky asked with a frown.

"If you don't get the spiritual treasure of the Butterfly Divine Clan out for me, then sooner or later, it will be stolen by humans who support some other spiritual race clans. I will not allow it to fall into the hands of other clans," Cherry said with a strong conviction.

"I'm sorry, but I can't help you," Rocky refused without hesitation.

Cherry knew that he would refuse, so she decided to reveal something that would change his mind. "All that time ago, if it weren't for me, you would have died in Alston's hands. You owe me," she said.

Rocky was confused for a second; then the realization hit him quickly. "That was you? You saved me?" He was a little surprised, but realized that it made perfect sense. He didn't know which spiritual race being had saved him back then. 'So, it was her...' he thought.

"You owe me your life. But I am only asking for your help in return," Cherry said with a solemn face.

Rocky was silent for a while, but finally he shook his head and said, "I still can't help you."

"You!" She didn't expect Rocky to be so stubborn.

"I told you he wouldn't agree so easily. I knew it." Another delicate voice came from behind him. Rocky turned quickly and saw another familiar figure in front of him with a transparent crystal bead in her hand.

"You..." Rocky's eyes turned cold. It was the beautiful spiritual race woman he had met in the Hell of Dragon Fang. He was more vigilant now. This woman had told him that the appearance of the spiritual treasures would cause a terrible disaster. She had asked him to hide the other half of the spiritual treasure of the Wood Clan, yet she was here with Cherry to ask his help to get the spiritual treasure of the Butterfly Divine Clan.

"Kayla, show him the Sky-peeping Pearl," Cherry said with a sigh and signaled to the beautiful woman.

The spiritual race woman, Kayla, immediately raised the Sky-peeping Pearl in her hand. The light of the pearl lit up, and a delicate figure appeared in it.

Rocky froze when he saw the face in the pearl. He was dumbstruck and confused.

"Sue?!" he cried out. The delicate figure in the pearl looked very similar to Sue. She looked more mature and charming, but it was definitely her!

"Mr. Bai!" she exclaimed excitedly.

"What the hell is going on? Sue can't be alive!" Rocky's eyes narrowed, and he turned to Cherry in disbelief.

"Back then, I realized that she was still alive, so I saved her," Cherry said indifferently.

"Then why didn't you tell me about her until now?" Seeing the expression on Cherry's face, Rocky knew that she wasn't lying to him. But she had kept this a secret all this while, and was only telling him now because she needed his help.

"You know why," she said, casually glancing at Rocky.

He clenched his fist in anger, but he was also excited. Sue was alive; the guilt that had been buried in his heart was now disappearing.

"So? What do you say? If you don't help me, you will never see her again," Cherry warned.

"Fine, I'll help you. But I need to see Sue right away." Rocky didn't want to lose Sue again. He believed that Cherry was someone who would act on her words. However, he was also still doubtful that this might be a trick, so he had to see Sue in person.

"Sue, come out," Cherry said.

Sue suddenly appeared with another Sky-peeping Pearl in her hand. Her aura at the preliminary level of the Supernal Stage was quite extraordinary. She was completely different from the weak little girl she had been in the past. Both her appearance and temperament had changed; she was now a beauty.

"Sue? Is that really you?" Rocky asked, his voice trembling in excitement. All this time, he had believed that Sue had been killed by Alston because of him. He had always felt guilty about losing her. Now, seeing that Sue was still alive and well, he felt grateful.

"Mr. Bai." Sue's eyes turned red and she threw herself into his arms.
