The legendary warrior

Chapter 1085 Too Many Questions

Four hours passed when Autelan and Soar had finished recovering with the help of Ricky's Life and Death Fire.

Soon after, the three of them shifted their gazes to the ten men who were clad in black.

"Congratulations, Mister Kenney! The Emperor Light is now yours," one of the men in black exclaimed in a joyous voice.

"Who on earth are you?" Ricky asked in a hushed voice. "Why are you here, and what is your purpose?"

These men didn't attack them. Instead, they even handed the Emperor Light over to Ricky. At this moment, Ricky believed that there must be something fishy.

"Mister Kenney, the Emperor Light is now yours! Shouldn't you be thanking us for letting it happen?" the man in black returned the question.

"What? So you want us to thank you?" Ricky replied coldly.

"Not only have you killed everyone from the Sky-breaking Dome but also offended the other warriors. For sure, they will be blaming us for what happened because, in their eyes, we are on the same team. From what I see, you are deliberately setting a trap for us!" added Ricky with a sneer.

"Ha-ha, I don't think a genius like you has to be afraid of those useless losers," the man in black commented as he laughed loudly. Text © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

"Clearly, I'm not afraid of them. However, what I am concerned about is the possible alliance among the forces behind them," Ricky responded frankly.

"You must be joking! Nevertheless, the Emperor Light is all yours now. I just hope that you can hold on to it for a long time. We will surely meet again sooner than you think, so I guess we'll see you around," the man in black said in a beaming tone.

Soon after, the ten men clad in black prepared to leave the place peacefully.

Meanwhile, Soar wanted to stop them from leaving, but Ricky pulled him back, preventing him from doing so.

"Ricky, aren't we going to do anything about this? So, what? Are we just going to let them go like this?" Soar said. "My gut tells me that they had formed an alliance with the Sky-breaking Dome. When they saw that the Sky-breaking Dome lost to us, they killed them in a snap. Now, I think it is only logical to kill these men. After all, there's a high chance that they'll stab us from behind.

Moreover, I just can't believe that they will give us the Emperor Light without a fight! Don't you guys find it odd?"

"Soar, I totally understand your concerns. But all ten of them are strong demi-spiritual emperors at peak state. Are you sure we can handle them?" Ricky said. "None of them is weaker than the three old men from the Sky-breaking Dome.

I honestly don't think we can handle them.

"Even if we defeat them, so what? Their deaths will be nothing as long as we don't know who is behind them."

"Soar, I'm with Ricky on this one. All we have now are just too many questions, but our strength is not enough to find out the answers. So, we'd better not act rashly before we can even get a hint on who's behind them. We have to at least figure out who these men in black are and where they are from!"

Autelan could not help but chime in.

"So, what should we do next? What's the plan, guys?" asked Soar. He had calmed down.

"Now that they have left the Emperor Light behind, we can spend our time refining it until we know what to do next. We can deal with them as soon as our strength improves. So, what do you think, Ricky?"

Autelan suggested.

"I guess we don't have any other option right now except this one. We don't know much about these men. All we know is that they are incredibly strong, and we can only fight them once we improve our strength," Ricky said.

"All right then. First things first, why don't we take a bath and refine the Emperor Light? I'd like to see it work its magic! I wonder if it can help us initiate the process of the Thunderstroke Doom," Soar uttered while nodding his head.

At the moment, so many questions flooded Ricky's mind that he had no choice but to transfer the Emperor Light into his Massacring Zone first until he knew what to do.

"Dragon Intent Grass, Evil Mandragora, we encountered the men in black again, and they killed all the members of the Sky-breaking Dome. Have you two found out anything about them?" Ricky asked in his mind.

"Ricky, I'm sorry, but I didn't find anything. In fact, they just used the most basic attacks. That's why I wasn't able to see anything special. Moreover, I'm sure you have felt that their auras were so mysterious and powerful as if they didn't have one. They are definitely extremely powerful to even hide their auras so well. Something's up, and we can't get any clue right now," the Dragon Intent Grass said with a sigh.

"Well, from my side, in fact, I felt a trace of devil aura from them that I'm familiar with," the Evil Mandragora said. "But It's just my instinct. I might be wrong, too."

"Where the hell are these guys from? Why could they find the ruling region where the Emperor Light would appear in advance? Why didn't they want the Emperor Light and why did they decide to give it to us instead? I believe that they just wanted us to be everyone's common enemy. In fact, I think that if the Sky-breaking Dome won, the men would have chosen the Sky-breaking Dome and tried to kill us. It only means that we were not their original target."

Ricky asked.

"Enough with the speculations. Let's all bathe in the Emperor Light and refine the items!" the Evil Mandragora said with a bit of annoyance in her tone.

"I second the motion. Those men said that we would meet again, and I think it will be sooner than we think. And when we do, we will probably know everything," the Dragon Intent Grass said to ease everyone's anxiety.

"But before we do that, we must make sure that we become stronger so we can deal with them."

Having the same goal of defeating the men in black, Ricky and his friends finally stopped talking about the men and focused themselves into enhancing their strengths.

At that moment, Ricky quickly introduced the Massacring Zone to Autelan, Amelia, and Amanda, and said that it was a zone that evolved in his body. Moreover, he did not miss the chance to introduce Tina to them.

Of course, the three newcomers were surprised, but they were polite enough not to ask more because they thought that this must be Ricky's secret. The fact that Ricky was willing to bring them in meant that

he trusted them.

Soon after, all of them fixed their eyes on the Emperor Light.

"Well, don't just stand there. Let's enter the Emperor Light!" Ricky said. "During this time, we should try our best to improve our strength. I hope that this giant Emperor Light can help us grow stronger so we can start to go through the Thunderstroke Doom."

Immediately, after Ricky's words, they all entered the Emperor Light.

"Tina, join us, please," Ricky said, inviting Tina.

"Ricky, it's better for me to stay here. After all, the Emperor Light is only useful for demi-spiritual emperors. I will not be able to refine it with my current strength. Moreover, I can't refine anything related to energy until the evil spirit is completely eliminated from my body. Otherwise, such energy would only become nourishment for the evil spirit," Tina explained.

"You don't have to worry about that, Tina. I promise you that I will remove all the evil spirit from your body soon," Ricky said in a serious tone.

"Since I came to you, I have always believed that you would do it for me. Now, I have even become a spiritual king, and this was something that I had never imagined before," Tina said in a joyous tone.

"Well, what can I say? It's just so good to have you by my side, Ricky!" Her voice was filled with shyness and happiness.

In fact, Ricky was a little surprised to hear this. But soon, excitement began to fill his heart.

He now felt that having a sensitive woman such as Tina by his side made his life more joyous and delightful.

'I need to protect everything I have with my strength. I must dedicate my life into becoming stronger so I won't lose anyone that I care!' Ricky thought to himself seriously.

Soon after, he walked into the Emperor Light and began to bathe in it.

When he got there, Soar and the others all had already entered the state of cultivation. At that moment, their momentums and strengths rapidly rose involuntarily.

"Emperor Light, I hope you won't let me down!" Ricky whispered to himself as he started to cultivate.
