The legendary warrior novel Chapter 1340

'What a bunch of hypocrites! It doesn't matter that they are dedicated to fighting off the devil race. I'm going to make them pay for doing this to me, ' Ricky swore to himself as he viciously glared at the saints.

Unfortunately, even though he wanted them dead badly, he had to control his temper and pretend that nothing happened.

It was a relief that these saints believed Ricky's claim. They believed that the man who had taken him away once was in possession of Paul's inheritance now. However, they were convinced that Ricky must know something about Paul's inheritance.

Hence, these greedy saints wouldn't leave Ricky alone.

The saints couldn't lay a hand on him while they were inside the Third Sheol City. To top that off, Ricky was participating in the selection. The only thing they could do was to order their disciples to do the job for them. Considering that Ricky seemed to always have something up his sleeve, they were worried that their disciples might be no match for his strength.

They were afraid that Ricky would overpower their people and run away. Thus, in order to ensure that everything went well, they covertly shattered Ricky's meridians themselves.

Now that they had weakened him, it would be easier for their disciples to deal with him whether he would join the selection or not. In their mind, the most important thing they needed to do was to get Ricky under their grasp, and then everything would follow smoothly. They had a thousand ways to get Ricky to tell them about the content of Paul's inheritance after all.

Currently, Ricky was in a bad state. He had been greatly weakened after the saints destroyed his meridians, but the saints were still afraid that he would somehow slip away from their hands.

With these fears in mind, they reached a consensus that they were going to shatter all of Ricky's meridians. In that way, Ricky would not be able to recover quickly even if he had rare Treasures from Heaven and Earth to heal himself.

'Dang it!' Ricky roared in his heart when he sensed another power coming toward him, knowing what the saints were trying to do this time.

However, he couldn't do anything about it. He had to endure whatever these saints had planned for him.

"Ricky!"

Twin voices suddenly resounded from the crowd.

It was none other than Lloyd and Mordechai, who just emerged from the crowd and were now running towards him.

But despite the anger in their hearts, there was little they could do. After all, this was how the martial world worked. The strong would always dominate the weak.

While the duo hovered over Ricky worriedly, another force appeared and descended upon him. It was another power sent by a saint, but this one seemed to be keeping him safe.

This new power was very potent.

Ricky sensed the new power as well, classifying it at the Sage Level. It brought him great relief, and he began to rid himself of all those powers that had shattered his meridians. Soon, they began to dissipate.

"At last, a good saint has come to your defense! If they succeeded in destroying your meridians again, you wouldn't have been able to cultivate ever again.

Though, if the kind saint came a little bit earlier, maybe he could have saved your other meridians. With your present state, you'll have to use a lot of Treasures from Heaven and Earth if you want to recover fast," said the Dragon Intent Grass.

"I don't mind the initial injuries. I'm just thankful that someone finally stepped in and gave me a hand," replied Ricky. He didn't expect that anyone would help him, let alone such a powerful savior.

Meanwhile, the other warriors present had also begun to realize that something was going on behind the scenes. 'It looks like some strong warriors had made a move against Ricky because of Paul's inheritance. But someone came to Ricky's rescue for the sake of the continent, ' they thought to themselves.

A thick tension settled over the place at once.

Reluctantly, the warriors who were assaulting Ricky withdrew their powers.

They tried to break Ricky's meridians for the second time because they wanted to capture him. But they had to back off when someone came to his rescue, or else, a commotion could erupt, and the Misty South Palace would get involved. That was the last thing they wanted to happen.

Besides, everything was under their control now.

A few moments later, a loud voice rang out of the blue, shattering the fragile silence that had settled over them. "All right, everyone, the young man already said that he doesn't have Paul's inheritance with him. You won't get what you want from him, so why don't you just leave?"

A middle-aged man clad in black clothes appeared out of nowhere, catching everyone's attention.
