"Ha-ha, finally! It was not easy to find this place, one of the rallying points of the Sky Dome. I can't believe it!" A clear and cheerful voice cut through the area. Heads tuned towards the person who spoke, curious and amused by the upbeat energy.
A figure stood confidently with a folding fan in his hand.
His face had a harmless look on it, as if he was there for an innocent purpose. However, similar to that time with Connor from the Celestial Army, Ricky felt that there was also something mysterious in the young man in front of him. In addition, Ricky had a strong feeling that the cultivation achievement that this young man had could be far beyond his imagination.
Nevertheless, there were still differences between the young man and Connor. Ricky could sense that the aura of the young man was mysterious but somehow pure. In contrast, the aura from Connor, the leader of the Celestial Army, was somehow evil.
'Why did this young man appear suddenly? Is he one of the Celestial Army as well?' Ricky wondered discretely. So far, he was really confused about what had happened. He was still trying to process what happened earlier, but now this young man came and threw him off even worse.
However, he was sure about one thing—Connor and the young man who had just showed up were both aiming for the huge iron core at the heart of the colossus.
'If I'm right—that the huge iron core at the heart of the colossus is really part of the mysterious axe deep in the Soul Sea—they might have something to do with me, ' Ricky mused.
"Ha-ha, Connor, here you are! And you've stated that you're the leader of the Celestial Army. I can't believe you really did that!" As the young man spoke, he fixed his eyes on Connor with a sardonic look on his face.
Connor could hardly contain his anger when he noticed that he was being made fun of. Fury burned in his eyes and he fixed the young man with a death glare.
"Gentry, how and why have you come here?" Connor asked in a cold tone. He looked unimpressed by the newcomer's relaxed appearance.
"Well, didn't you know the answer already? I came here using the same way you did. Wait, did you think your actions can be concealed from us? How naive of you!" Gentry Jiang, the young man in white, sneered condescendingly at Connor.
"Fortunately, I was not late. Otherwise, things would have become really troublesome once you have gotten what you wanted,"
Then, he turned and looked at Ricky with a smile on his face. "Hey, thank you for stopping this devil man. You have no idea how big of a help you were to me."
"You don't have to say that. As a matter of fact, it is you that have saved our lives. Thanks for showing up in time. Otherwise, we would have died. Besides, I was helping my friends as well. My friends are still under his control right now."
As Ricky spoke, concern filled his heart. When he threw Luke and Tyler into one of his zones, there was nobody in their spiritual space tools—neither Kristen nor Tyson.
He guessed that Kristen and Tyson would not be imprisoned in the spiritual space tool of Connor either.
"Oh? He has taken your friends hostage, if I'm not misunderstanding?" Gentry Jiang confirmed as he nodded slightly towards Ricky to show that he understood. Then, his eyes fixated on the chief of the Sky Manor, who was lying behind Connor at that moment. The expression on his face showed that he had already made up his mind on what to do next.
Whoosh! Gentry Jiang suddenly moved in a flash as he aimed for the chief of the Sky Manor.
When he noticed that Gentry Jiang was going to save the hostage behind him, Connor reacted quickly to stop Gentry. Their confrontation had begun swiftly, but ended just as fast, with Connor's defeat. Gentry Jiang had beaten Connor without a hitch and took the chief of the Sky Manor away from him.
Gentry Jiang appeared in front of Ricky and handed the chief of the Sky Manor over.
Ricky reached out and took the chief of the Sky Manor into his arms. He then sent her into the Chaotic Fire Zone for break and recovery.
Deep in Ricky's heart, he was shocked at Gentry Jiang's overwhelming power. Although the confrontation between Gentry Jiang and Connor was really short, Ricky could clearly feel how powerful the former had achieved in cultivation. He thought, 'This man is able to deal with the divine energy of Connor. In this case, his power must be some kind of divine energy as well.'
"Thank you so much!" Ricky expressed his thanks to Gentry Jiang sincerely.
"You're welcome. Please think of it as a reward, since you helped me stop Connor. And also, I had to save her life anyway," Gentry Jiang replied with a smile on his face.
'What? He has to save her life anyway? What does that mean?' Ricky could not help but wonder, his mind raced with possibilities.
