"I have lost this battle." Dale admitted her defeat as she stood there calmly. However, by the look on her face, it was clear that she was reluctant to accept her defeat.
The Sky-devouring Strikes that she released were already at maximum power, meaning she could no longer push it further. Even if she merged her blood essence to boost the power, she knew that she could not take down Ricky's Chaotic Fire Mutant, which Ricky had not yet used against her.
Moreover, she didn't think that he had already released his devouring power to the extreme and expected that he could still strengthen his attack towards her.
At that moment, she knew that her opponent could do more damage now that she saw how he easily resisted her attack.
Meanwhile, as Dale stared into nothingness, she came to realize that the reason why Terrell lost was not that he was too weak, but rather that Ricky was too powerful.
"Thank you," Ricky uttered as he smiled.
At that time, Ricky had been thinking about how to get Dale's Omnipotent Skill—the Sky-devouring Strikes.
Obviously, Dale's Sky-devouring Strikes were not very powerful at all due to her lack of comprehension. In fact, during the previous fight, Ricky was certain that he could feel the extraordinary power of the Sky-devouring Strikes. Moreover, he knew that it would not be weaker than his Evil Devouring Mouth if he could pair it up with his Devouring Mutant.
"There is no doubt that your Devouring Mutant is stronger than my innate devouring power," Dale praised while cupping her hands.
"Thank you for your compliment. Don't worry. I'll cover up for you. I will personally tell the leader of the Sky-breaking Dome that I was the one who killed Terrell. Plus, this meeting never happened if you know what I mean." Ricky winked at her.
"I can never thank you enough for this," Dale replied.
Soon after, she got ready and prepared to leave with Cassidy and the others.
"Hey, wait, Cassidy! Did you already forget what I told you last time? If you come to me again, then you are welcome to join my team. But if you want to leave now, you must leave something behind," Ricky reminded.
Hearing his words, Cassidy and the others automatically had their happy faces upside down.
"Kenney, you have already taken all of our belongings. What else do you want from us?" Cassidy said in an annoyed tone.
"This is none of my business. But you must leave something behind," Ricky said. "Think about it. If I don't get strong enough today to beat Terrell, then I will be more miserable than I already am!
I won't kill you only because you did not intend to kill me at first. But don't consider this to be an act of mercy. If you don't have anything else with you and present it to me, then I will have to suppress you. Once I leave this place, I'll go directly to your Three-colored Sacred Python tribe in exchange for cultivation resources."
"You..." Cassidy could not help but furrow her brows in anger upon hearing Ricky's words.
"Kenney, you are out of line here. Are you insane? Look, you've already taken away all their stuff. What else do you want?" Dale was offended with what Ricky was trying to do. At the same time, this led her to confront Ricky to inject some sense into him.
"This has nothing to do with me! I found the ruling essence, and they came late. Of course, they should pay the price for not snatching the ruling essence in time. After that, they found helpers to help them but they still failed. They should also pay the price for that," Ricky said smoothly.
At that moment, both Dale and Cassidy became more irritated after hearing Ricky's thoughts.
They came to realized that the man in front of them did not show any mercy even when facing them—two young and beautiful ladies.
As a matter of fact, they did not expect this from Ricky because they were widely known as the most beautiful girls in this sea area. All the young men would give up their limbs just to have a date with them.
But now, both Cassidy and Dale felt insulted seeing that Ricky had no interest in them.
"Well, if that's the case, then I'll pay you with whatever cultivation resources you want and need." With no other choice, Dale offered a proposal.
If she didn't offer anything, then he would surely suppress Cassidy and her siblings. It would be a great loss to be suppressed in the Complete Emperor Island for they knew that in that case they would miss all the opportunities.
