Chapter 1393 Meet Otis Again
"This is the Third Sheol City and it is filled with powerful figures. You can consider them my witness
when I say that I will keep my word. In twenty years, I will visit the Phoenix tribe and settle the ounts
with you," Ricky promised with a murderous look.
"And one more thing. Please tell your noble son, Lanny, that I am going to trample him under my feet
when we meet again."
His words were so arrogant.
The entire square of the Third Sheol City erupted into a heavily heated discussion as soon as Ricky''s
words fell on their ears.
"How arrogant!"
"Ignorant too!"
Even warriors who had been highly supportive of Ricky till now were thinking that this guy was being
overly offensive.
Promising to fight and trample Lanny in twenty years was a highly arrogant move.
And to top it all off, Ricky had dered his malicious intentions about the noble son of the Phoenix tribe
in front of their elder. Arrogance and ignorance were perhaps the simplest of traits to be attached to
Ricky right now.
"Wally, isn''t he being too arrogant?" the First Deputy Chief asked telepathically.
"Maybe. But don''t you think his arrogance is much like your lord, and also like our leader, Brad?" Wally
responded.
"I guess so."
"Ricky, what are you thinking? You now have only twenty years. What makes you think you can defeat
Lanny in twenty years?" the Dragon Intent Grass asked in a serious tone.
"Even if luck gets you victory, do you think you''ll be able to leave safe and sound, once you step foot
inside the Phoenix tribe?"
"Look. I know twenty-year is too soon. If it were up to me, I could have waited a long time. But my
master can''t wait that long. She is the woman I like and I must get to her as soon as possible," Ricky
responded.
"So, you are doing this for a beauty, huh? But you will need to be immensely strong to achieve this
task. If not, death will find you before you can even say ''hi''!" the Dragon Intent Grass warned.
"I understand, but I am certain that I can do this. I haveprehended the bright ancestral spirit and
my Chaos blood power and Ancestral Intent Form have grown rapidly," Ricky said.
"For most spiritual emperors, twenty-year is just a fleeting time. But for me, it is the time I take to
be a spiritual potentate."
The Dragon Intent Grass was shocked by such confidence and deration.
But Ricky was telling the truth. The bright ancestral spirit that he owned alone was enough for him to be
able to deal with the Phoenix tribe in twenty years.
Although Ricky wasn''t fully aware of what the bright ancestral spirit was yet, he believed that it was
superior to the chaos and the heavenlyw. He was certain that he could achieve his goals within
twenty years with this power on his side.
"What an arrogant young man! But I will tell our noble son what you said," Liam replied with a snort.
"Even if I didn''t take your word back, it would reach him sooner orter.
Maybe he will visit you soon. And when that happens, it is you who are going to be trampled under his
feet."
"You don''t have to worry about that," Ricky snapped back.
Nodding, Muhammad departed with the members of the Phoenix tribe. Their unexpected confrontation
had ended with a twenty-year agreement.
The selection ended soon after the members of the Phoenix tribe had left.
Apart from Ricky, the Misty South Pce had selected nine other core disciples.
However, because of the way Ricky had gotten in, he had hogged the entirety of the limelight and all
eyes were focused on him only.
When Ricky, Jedidiah, Jasper, and the others gathered at the stronghold of the Five-element Sect
afterwards, they all had the same identity—disciples of the Misty South Pce.
However, only Ricky and Mordechai were core disciples.
And since Ricky did not need any points to get in, all his points had been awarded to Mordechai.
Jedidiah, Jasper, Mike, Peter, and ire were qualified enough topete and try to be core
disciples, but they had chosen their own paths.
They had participated in the selection just to be members of the Misty South Pce.
A major reason behind that was their sense of justice and their willingness to fight the devils for the
continent.
"I''m afraid this is goodbye, everyone. It''s going to be several years, maybe even decades, before we
meet again," Jedidiah said and nodded solemnly.
"Where are you going next?" Jasper asked Jedidiah.
"I am going to train with my master. The rules in the Passage World are going to ease up every day.
And sooner orter, most likely sooner, the devils are going to invade this continent. I must train and
improve my strength before that," Jedidiah replied.
"Mike and I are going to train as well. We will try hard to be masters of the Eight Diagrams,"
Jasper said.
"I am going to return to the Misty Mountain. I am certain that I can awaken the blood power of the holy
being there," Peter dered.
"Mordechai and I are returning to the Five-element Sect. From there, we''ll go to the headquarters of the
Misty South Pce," Ricky said. "As for our actions, we''ll cross that bridge when we get to it."
"My friends, if this is going to be our goodbye for a long while, then let us drink together. Let us pour
and drink to our friendship and promise that when wee back from training, we will fight side by side
again," Jedidiah said and brought out a bottle of wine he had collected several years before.
The farewell was rather prolonged and after a hearty discussion, Ricky''s friends departed.
"Your friends are easily as talented as the noble sons and daughters of the ancient ns. Once they
achieve their true potential, they are going to be your strongest allies," the Dragon Intent Grass said.
"Mmm hmm. Jedidiah is cultivating the Buddhism, which is a kind of ancient inheritance as famous as
the Eight Diagrams. Jasper and Mike will be powerful enough to rule this continent solely on the basis
of the Law of Change, the Law of Mechanism and the Law of Universe even if they don''t master the
Eight Diagrams.
Peter''s veins run with the heavenly illusionary power. If hepletely awakens his blood power, he is
going to be a demi-spiritual potentate.
It''s no coincidence that our paths have crossed. Maybe this is just how friendships work in the world of
martial arts," Ricky answered.
After that, he was ready to follow Lloyd back to the Five-element Sect.
But before he could do that, the First Deputy Chief called him telepathically, saying that he wanted to
bring Ricky to meet someone.
The First Deputy Chief brought Ricky to the pce, where they saw Otis once more.
"Sir!" Ricky greeted the man respectfully.
His admiration and respect for this man were natural. Otis was the strongest of all the warriors.

"Ever since the Misty South Pce has allowed people to be core disciples by killing a demi-saint
from the devil race, you were the first one to ever do it. Perhaps you will also be thest one ever. It
appears that I wasn''t wrong about you," Otis said appreciatively.
"I was just lucky," Ricky smiled. "Otherwise, killing a demi-saint from the devil race would be impossible
for me."
"You are still very modest," the First Deputy Chiefmented with a smiling face.
"Regardless of whether you were lucky or powerful enough to kill a demi-saint, you have done it. You
have be famous in a short while, partly because of your strength..." At this point, Otis chuckled.
"But mostly because of your arrogance.
Challenging the Phoenix tribe was a pretty ballsy move."
"Sir, please don''t make fun of me. I know I was a bit arrogant," Ricky said awkwardly.
