"Go to hell!" Jackson said murderously. He heard what Brian said and was going to kill him right away.
"Keep talking rubbish and I swear I'll crush you," warned Pearl, who stopped Jackson with her stare.
"Whatever, Pearl." Brian laughed. Then, he stopped provoking.
He knew clearly that it would take too much from him to fight Pearl.
Nevertheless, they had already agreed to kill Ricky together.
"Pearl, please eliminate the Nether Army and keep them away from the Land of Legacy. They are not allowed to enter this place," a bold warrior told Pearl.
"Meh!" Brian sneered upon hearing what the warrior said.
He laughed because he knew Pearl could not care less about their so-called justice.
"I am no longer a disciple of the Oriental College. I'm here only on behalf of the Luxurious Chamber of Commerce, which has no shared interests or hatred with the Nether Manor. I am in no position to accept your proposal," Pearl replied calmly.
"Maybe you should turn to other disciples of the Oriental College like the ace genius Ricky."
Pearl then stopped talking and stood by in silence.
The warriors were astonished to hear Pearl's cold refusal.
They soon understood her because even the disciples of the Oriental College, including Ricky, had no obligation to stand up for them.
There was no justice to be served in this dog-eat-dog world.
They hated it so much when they realized the importance of power, which meant almost everything in this place.
...
Then, Ricky and Soar arrived.
Their presence caught everyone's eyes.
"Long time no see, everybody! Or should I say nice to meet you? We've never met before except...Pearl." Ricky greeted them first as all eyes were on him. His laughter broke the silence.
"We've been looking forward to seeing you, the ace genius!" replied Brian, smiling.
His smile was murderous.
"You must be the commanders of the Nether Army," Ricky smiled, his eyes on Brian and Adrian.
"You're right, we are. If I am guessing right, you're the one who killed our companion. Actually, you're the only one here who could kill him," Brian answered.
"That's right. Bring it on if you want to avenge his death," Ricky challenged. He did not want to get away with it, and he would be found out anyway.
"Then go to hell!" Adrian jabbed.
Then, he charged toward Ricky.
"There you are, Ricky. I've come a long way to kill you. I'll prove to the world that my Feminine Mutant is superior to your talent." Pearl moved and blocked Adrian's attack.
