The Medallion

"What if it's a trap?" Rocky asked doubtfully.

"I don't think so. I've already inquired about it before I came here. Many of the clan leaders of the spiritual race have been invited by the Heavenly Demon Clan to this meeting, including the leaders of several high-level spiritual race clans. The leaders of the Phoenix Master Clan and the Wood Clan are both among them. Although the Heavenly Demon Clan must have some ulterior motives, I don't think that it will be a trap," said Marcia.

A short silence ensued as Rocky thought about whether he'd like to go or not. Finally, he nodded to himself and said, "If that's the case, then I don't mind participating. Let me see what the Heavenly Demon Clan is up to!"

"I'll go with you," volunteered Marcia immediately. It was expected, of course, because she would not let Rocky take that risk alone.

The spiritual race's meeting would be held in two days, so Rocky and Marcia immediately set out to the place where the meeting would be held—the Divine Burial Valley.

The valley was inside the territory of the Heavenly Demon Clan. It was spring all year round there, so plenty of flowers and plants were always blooming. Magnificent buildings also added elegance and grandness to the place, making the valley an enchanting sight to behold. Clearly, the Heavenly Demon Clan knew how to enjoy life.

As soon as Rocky and Marcia arrived at the valley, the Heavenly Demon Clan's ordinary spiritual beings came to greet them. They led the two of them to the group of buildings in the valley, where they stopped in a magnificent hall.

When Rocky and Marcia entered the hall, they saw that it was filled with figures from various clans of the spiritual race. There were about twenty to thirty of them, and each one exuded a strong aura that belonged to the spiritual masters'. On closer look, the pair identified all of them as leaders of several spiritual race clans invited by the Heavenly Demon Clan this time. Except for a few advanced spiritual race clans, the rest were the leaders of secondary spiritual race clans. The patriarch of the Wood Clan and Jill, the Phoenix Master Clan's matriarch, were also among them.

Jill saw Rocky and Marcia enter the hall, she immediately jumped up from her seat and greeted them with a charming smile.

here this time. At present, the Wild Spirit Land is suffering from the scourge of the nine calamity beasts, and the people are living in misery and restlessness. Many spiritual race clans are plagued. If it goes on like this, the Wild Spirit Land will be desolate sooner or later. I primarily held this meeting for the sake of the Wild Spirit Land and the future of our spiritual race. I hope that all the spiritual race clans can unite to deal with the calamity beasts and seal them again so that the Wild Spirit Land can be peaceful once again," Townsend said seriously. At that point, he was playing his part well. He sounded almost righteous with that speech, which was very far from the truth. Unfortunately, nobody knew that he was the one to blame for everything. After all, he
