Born Almighty Warrior novel Chapter 569

"Josiah, are you really going to break the pact that our three halls built?" Scar asked in near threat after seeing that Josiah was very hesitant to give him the Blood Essence Stone of the Spear Hall.

Upon hearing that, Josiah then looked at Garrett through his peripheral view as if he was trying to get Garrett's opinion on this.

But Garrett only shook his head slightly as he sensed that Josiah was eyeing him. Then, he said something to him telepathically.

Josiah just smiled coldly at Scar and said, "Scar, the Spear Hall doesn't have the audacity to break the pact agreed upon by our three halls."

Josiah then threw the Blood Essence Stone to Scar with a gloomy look.

"About damn time! Thank you Josiah!" Scar caught the stone and thanked Josiah. He then said, "Rest assured that I will return your stones intact as soon as possible."

"It's all right, Scar!" Nora said softly. "Congratulations, Scar. Now that the competition is over, we are leaving now."

"In that case, farewell, Nora!" replied Scar.

Then, Nora led the disciples of the Sword Hall to the exit and took off without another word.

Meanwhile, Luna had reminded Ricky repeatedly to come to the Apsara Palace once he refined the Quintessence of Heaven and Earth.

With such an assertive reminder from the beautiful Luna, many warriors grew jealous of Ricky.

All except for Tina, who stared at him with melancholy. On the other hand, Ricky was still confused as he could still not make up his mind about how he truly felt for Tina.

However, there was one thing that Ricky was sure about—he cared a lot about Tina's feelings and that he would never allow any other men to get any idea about courting her.

"Relax, Tina. I am not going to the Apsara Palace. It was just wise that I said yes to Luna's invitation. After all, I was in such a difficult position to refuse such offer. Don't worry, we will leave this place right after we refine the Quintessence of Heaven and Earth," Ricky said as he sent a message to Tina through telepathy.

"Hmmp...I couldn't care less whether you go or not!" Tina replied instantly, with shyness in her voice.

"Well, if you don't care, then I guess I am going." Hearing Tina's voice, Ricky still pretended that he did not notice the shyness in her voice. Instead, he kept messing with her.

"Hey! Don't go!" Upon hearing that Ricky was still going to go to the Apsara Palace, Tina had finally let go of her shyness and instead, she mustered up the courage to beg him not to push through with his plans.

But after she said what she wanted, Tina's face turned bright red out of embarrassment. It had just occurred to her that Ricky was just pretending to go. Tina was so embarrassed that all she wanted that moment was to be sucked by a hole in the ground, or even to disappear, just to save herself from the humiliation.

"Ha-ha, all right then. Since you asked, then I am not going," Ricky responded with a sly smile on his face which only made Tina blush even more.

Soar noticed the cute scene and asked Tina, "Hey Tina, what's going on with you two? Is Ricky showing you his affection? That would probably explain why you look so shy!"

...

While they were joking around, all of the disciples from the Sword Hall already left with the disciples from the Spear Hall. Garrett and Jim did not forget to bid farewell to them as they led the whole team out.

Garrett then looked at Ricky with a smile on his face and said, "Russell, see you next time. I'm looking forward to our next competition. Please feel free to visit the Garuda tribe anytime you want. In fact, you'll be our guest of honor!"

"Then I will take your word for it. Thank you for the invitation, Garrett!" Ricky thanked him with a salute.

"'See you next time' is a good phrase. What does he mean by that?" Ricky whispered to himself.

He believed Garrett must have meant something in between those lines.
