'It seems that Yates took a drop of blood essence of the Great Dragon and put it into the Skeleton Dragon's body, ' Ricky thought to himself.
All of a sudden, they saw a figure soaring over the palace. She landed and they recognized her as Tina. Perching on her shoulder, Soar excitedly flew to Ricky once he saw him. He and Tina had both been terribly worried about Ricky, Tyson and Kristen.
"It's fortunate for you to came back safe and sound," Tina said. Until she saw them safe with her own eyes, she was uneasy.
"I knew that my brother is quite remarkable. I was confident they would come back safely after they solved the problems," Soar said with a smile on his face.
"It was a dangerous experience, but finally, we survived together," Ricky sighed as he remembered everything they'd been through.
"What is that?" The skeleton and blood essence in the altar had attracted Soar's full attention. As soon as he saw the skeleton and blood essence, he was shocked immediately.
He recognized it immediately as he himself was a Great Dragon, too.
But Soar didn't want Tina, Tyson and Kristen to know his true identity as a Great Dragon. He pretended not to know anything, watching their reactions.
"If my guess is right, this is the Great Dragon that sealed Yates in the grave back then!" Ricky noticed that everyone was confused and began to explain. And then Ricky relayed almost everything that they had met in the grave to Tina and Soar.
"Oh, my god. It sounds so terribly perilous,"
Their story terrified Tina. But all that mattered now was that everyone had returned safely. Of course, she was curious about what Ricky had pulled out of his sleeve in order to kill a demi-spiritual emperor. But she also knew Ricky. If he didn't want to tell her right away, it wasn't the time to talk about it.
"Brother, only a few warriors have survived in the Chaotic Region, including Trent. I'm sorry. All the other warriors all died there," Soar said morosely.
They became silent, remembering the warriors they had interacted with. Even though they'd never gotten to know them much and even considered some of them as adversaries, they also felt sorrowful for their tragic fates. They didn't deserve to die like that.
After a while, Ricky said flatly, "We couldn't stop them. From the beginning, no one had any clues that this was a well-plotted conspiracy of a demi-spiritual emperor decades ago. But fortunately, we are all alive. We're lucky to have this ending."
"You are right." Others agreed with Ricky, nodding sadly.
Their hearts ached for the innocent warriors who had died unjustly.
Finally, it had come to an end. They shouldn't stay here any longer. It was time to leave and move forward. After all, they still had a long way to go in the martial arts world.
They didn't take the skeleton and blood essence out of the altar. Instead, they were going to bury it in the Chaotic Region, which was the only thing they could think to do for this respectable Great Dragon.
Then, they left the grave quickly and found Trent down the road. Ricky didn't hide anything from his friends. He told them almost everything happened in the grave.
But what he didn't tell them was that he killed the demi-spiritual emperor. He simply told them that the strength that Great Dragon left behind was what killed Yates.
He didn't want to cheat Trent and Bastian, but there were other warriors that he wasn't familiar with. Besides, the ace up his sleeve was much too peculiar to tell them about just yet.
At last, they made a decision. They would not speak a word of this again once they went out. They were going to leave the Chaotic Region behind. They had nothing to lose now that the members of Manor Palace almost died in the grave.
Tina was going to do the same. Just like Manor Palace, there were only a few members in Dahlia Palace besides Doris and her.
The Chaotic Region would quiet down for a long time. After all, a large number of warriors died in the grave. No one would know why they disappeared, which would be a bitter secret if Ricky and other warriors kept silent.
