CHAPTER 989 CALVIN'S APPEARANCE
"Kenney has been defeated!"
all the warriors sighed as they were caught by surprise. They all knew that if Ricky was defeated, then
he would die. However, if Carney was defeated, he wouldn't, because the Chu Clan was there to back
him up whenever he needed help.
"Father, please save Kenney!" Amelia said to Abraham telepathically.
"I understand!" Abraham said, nodding his head.
Without hesitation, Abraham, together with a strong demi-spiritual emperor of the Hong Clan, was
about to stand up from their seats to come to Ricky's aid. Considering that a powerful demi-spiritual
emperor of the Chu Clan had accompanied Carney, the Hong Clan should also have two powerful
demi-spiritual emperors to fight against them. Otherwise, they would not be able to save Ricky from his
impending death.
"Chief Abraham, I haven't lost yet. You are just scratching the surface. Wait until I unleash my
devastating skills." Ricky contacted Abraham telepathically. "Even if I lose, I'm sure that Carney can't
kill me. Sit back and relax; there's no need for you to help me at this point.
Moreover, the Hong Clan will look bad if you are the first to take action. If that happens, the Chu Clan
will have more excuses to fight you. All I'm afraid of is that the Hong Clan would be annihilated by the
Chu Clan even before you see the powerful warriors of the Spirit Sect."
"But you..." Abraham's eyes widened. He hesitated to follow the plan as he had grown concerned
about Ricky's safety.
"Don't worry. I know what I am doing and I won't put my own life at risk," Ricky reiterated.
Meanwhile, he shot Carney a glance and began to sigh in his heart, 'This guy is a genius! I guess that
he is even a peerless genius. His fire and mutant are really awesome.'
During the fight, Ricky had to admit that he was already losing. As a matter of fact, there was a serious
gap between his and Carney's strength because Carney had almost faintly surpassed the strength of
an ordinary demi-spiritual emperor.
"This is unexpected. I didn't expect you to have such a pair of powerful eyes!" Carney remarked after
stabilizing his body. Although it was just for a quick second, he had already presumed that Ricky's eyes
were responsible for the increase in his power.
Moreover, Carney also came to realize that he was envious of everything that Ricky had.
As far as he could remember, he had never been greedy over anything that he didn't have, because
nobody else had anything worthy to be envious about. Instead, it was the other way around—people
were envious of what Carney had. But the tables had turned now for he was the one who wanted
something that belonged to Ricky.
Regardless, he grinned from ear to ear. Now that he had defeated Ricky, Carney was sure to get what
Ricky had.
"So, do you think you've won against me?" Ricky sneered as he looked at Carney's excited eyes.
"But isn't it true?" Carney questioned back.
Boom! As soon as Ricky's voice trailed off, the Life and Death Fire and the life and death rune suddenly
enveloped his entire body. Soon, his injuries were healed seamlessly, and his strength restored pronto.
Swift as a coursing river, he had already recovered some combat power.
"If I guess it right, you don't have much combat power left either. I cannot deny that you are very strong,
but one thing is for sure: you can't recover as quickly as me. I guess that with the strength that you
have now, I'm quite sure that you can barely defeat me," Ricky mocked.
At the sight of this, Carney's eyes, which had been full of excitement a while ago, turned gloomy
immediately, because what Ricky said was right. Carney's excitement spiraled downwards into a dark
gloom at this moment. To make things worse, he could not deny that there was truth in what Ricky had
said.
"What a horrible means of recovering! I didn't know that there is a kind of flame that can be used for
regaining strength!" the warriors around exchanged their observations about the fight. "This means that
he can win every battle against opponents of the same realm and strength!"
"Wow, Kenney is definitely a genius who can fight against Carney; if not, even better!"
Carney heard these abominable comments and could not help but furrow his brows in anger. Moreover,
what ticked his vein the most was the part where the people believed that Ricky was more talented
than him.
"Go to hell, you bastard!"
With everything that was going on, there was nothing in Carney's mind but anger. Deep in his heart, he
knew that he could only calm down once he disposed Ricky's dead body.
Boom!
At that moment, Carney's momentum suddenly swept over and became out of his control. Soon
enough, the power around him in the void also began to resonate.
On the other hand, all of the bystanders' eyes were plastered on to what was happening to Carney. In
disbelief, all of them had the same thoughts. Stunned, one of the warriors stammered, "H... How is this
p-possible? Is Carney going to break through at this moment?"
At that point, what Carney was showing was a clear sign of an incoming breakthrough.
Right at that moment, Carney was going to break through and become a lower grade demi-spiritual
emperor.
What Carney was going through made all of the people envy him more. These people had worked so
hard for over a dozen years but still were unable to make a breakthrough and become demi-spiritual
emperors. What made them envy him the most was the fact that he was in the actual process of
breaking through during a fight.
On top of that, the viewers also realized and predicted that there was a high chance that Carney could
still win this fight. Once he made a breakthrough and became a lower grade demi-spiritual emperor,
then Ricky would be doomed to fail.
This might have been going on pretty well for Carney until the people heard his furious voice pierce the
air, "Damn it! Son of a bitch, Kenney! You even made me break through. I have been restraining myself
for six months, but now all my efforts are in vain. How could you do this to me?"
At that point, Carney clenched his fists as he was even angrier than before.
Confused, all of the people's eyes were glued to him. They never understood why Carney would be
angry at this moment when he should be doing the exact same opposite—celebrating because he was
making a breakthrough.
"Ricky, it seems that he has restrained himself for some ulterior motive. In other words, his restraint
must be greatly helpful for his future cultivation," Tina commented. "But he burst out too much power in
the collision that had just happened, and that's why he can't restrain himself any longer.
If you'd ask me, I can't tell if I should feel happy or not right now. In fact, I'm unhappy because Carney
is going to make a breakthrough. Even if you break out the chaotic power, I am afraid you still cannot
defeat him. On the other hand, I'm happy because you seem to have really harmed his cultivation
achievements."
"Why not be both? You can be happy and unhappy at the same time!" Ricky said, smiling, as he tried to
ease the intense atmosphere in his heart.
But at that very moment, he was not happy at all. In fact, he knew he was about to lose now that
Carney was having a breakthrough. To make matters worse, if he lost, then Abraham would have to
stand out to help him, which was the least thing that he wanted to happen.
Given the case, the Chu Clan would most probably crush and exterminate the Hong Clan bluntly. Even
if they chose to surrender to the Spirit Sect, it would already be too late.
"Wanton, kill him for my sake!" Carney ordered the strong demi-spiritual emperor that had
accompanied him in an angry voice. Given that the breakthrough was close at hand, he could not
restrain himself any longer.
At that moment, Carney had no other choice but to prepare for the breakthrough.
"Just as I expected, they are indeed starting to kill. It seems that it's not easy to solve the problem
today," Ricky said in a serious tone.
But as soon as Wanton stood out, Abraham stopped him. Soon after, a fight happened in which
Wanton threatened the Hong Clan.
"Ugh, what should I do now?" Ricky mumbled to himself as he felt a little anxious.
As his anxiety punched him in the gut, he caught sight of Carney who was sitting cross-legged. In an
instant, killing intent seemed to have filled his mind and soul. Upstodatee from Novel(D)ra/m/a.O(r)g
'Although I don't want to take advantage of others' perilous state, it doesn't mean that I will never do
that. Today, I have no choice but to kill Carney before he kills me. Then, I will let the Evil Mandragora
kill the spiritual emperors of the Chu Clan as swiftly as possible. If that all works out, then we'll have to
run away and never look back!' Ricky thought to himself.
Moreover, he planned to do so.
Meanwhile, the void beside Carney began to twist, and a bearded man in a red robe appeared. As
soon as he landed his feet on the ground, the bearded man did not hesitate and used his power to help
Carney.
However, his help wasn't for Carney to make a breakthrough, but rather to help him restrain his realm.
"That...That is the chief of the Chu Clan—Calvin!" the warriors around all stammered as they saw
Calvin right in the flesh.
