Born Almighty Warrior novel Chapter 498

Snap! Snap! Several cracking noises came from all around the area.

After the man finished his angry tirade, he also activated his own skills. After that, the crowd saw that the area around the man was covered in jagged ice. The ice was soon transformed into ice thorns. The thorns pierced through the space, producing the loud cracking sounds. In the next second, the sharp thorns flew towards Soar and his companions.

"Ha-ha, Pearl, it seems that you have a lot of boyfriends. Ricky will be very jealous of that. After all, he only likes you," Soar said teasingly.

As for the ice thorn attack, Soar was able to easily resist it. He flipped his hand, and small fire balls appeared on each of his five fingers. After a slight flip of his wrist, the five small fire balls instantly spurted out.

While the five fire balls were fizzling out, they also absorbed the power of space and burst out, turning into roaring flames. At once, they destroyed the cold ice thorns.

When Pear heard the way that Soar teased her, she looked quite irritated. If she could, she would have liked to tear Soar's mouth apart in that moment.

The escorts, being represented by Bernard, were also a bit puzzled.

As for why Pearl wanted to launch such a big campaign and search for Ricky, she had not told them. They only knew that it was not because of the skeleton of a spiritual emperor that Ricky owned. As the young master of the Luxurious Chamber of Commerce, she didn't have to be so blatant in her search for the skeleton of a spiritual emperor. That was because the skeleton was auctioned off by the Luxurious Chamber of Commerce in the first place.

It was not because Ricky was a peerless genius either though.

They didn't have a clue as to what the answer was, until they were enlightened by what Soar's had said.

If a woman hated a man that much, the odds were that it was due to love. 'Is there something between Pearl and Ricky?' they wondered at the same time.

The more they thought about it, the more they felt it was only due to the relationship issues between Pearl and Ricky.

As a result, deep down, they became more annoyed with Ricky. They were all admirers of Pearl, so they hated Ricky, and any other person involved with Pearl.

They didn't care if Pearl liked Ricky or not. All they wanted to do at that point was kill Ricky. In that case, the problem would be solved forever, and they would have their own chance to chase after Pearl.

Soar didn't know that Pearl's escorts were so greatly irritated by his random and teasing words. He couldn't tell that they had such murderous intent against Ricky either. If Ricky knew about it, he would be just as annoyed and might have a bone to pick with Soar for giving them that impression.

Pearl was very intelligent, so she instantly detected the subtle mental change in her admirers. Although annoyed, she soon put on a slight smile. Bernard and her other escorts hated Ricky, and their murderous intent against Ricky was exactly what she wanted from them.

Of course, Pearl's real plan was for Ricky to be defeated by her escorts, so she would be able to offer help and rescue him at the last minute. She thought that he would appreciate her and fall in love with her if she saved him.

Whoosh!

After the flames melted the ice thorns, a white figure flew quickly up into the air and then hovered in the air, with his hands on his back. The figure said to Soar in a condescending and smug voice, "Where is Ricky? Just tell him that he needs to show up now! A peerless genius should have great courage and fighting spirit. Since I'm here to challenge him, he should behave like a peerless genius—show up and accept my challenge!

He shouldn't be called a peerless genius if he won't accept my challenge. Moreover, he should get down on his knees and apologize to me for that!"

The white figure was none other than Louie from the Bing Clan.

"Humph! If Ricky makes a breakthrough and becomes an innate spirit right now, I'm sure that you'll get scared and scurry out of the place like the nasty rat you are. You shouldn't even have the courage to talk so big around here," Soar responded unceremoniously when he heard Louie's arrogant speech.

After a pause, he continued, "Ricky told me that you guys were not even qualified to challenge him. So, if you want to see him, you should try to beat me first!"

"You are courting death by toying with me!" Louie roared in anger.

Louie's figure instantly appeared in front of Soar, and without any warning, he launched an ice palm attack against Soar. In a flash, the entire space around them was frozen.
