The legendary warrior

At that moment, the old man didn't look angry despite Ricky's disrespect. On the contrary, he appreciated him very much, which was reasonable for anyone to do. After all, any creature would be happy to associate with an incredible demi-spiritual emperor. Even jealousy could be considered as another kind of appreciation.

The old man's eyes were full of yearning for genius.

Meanwhile, Pearl was pleased to see the anger on Ricky's face because it meant that he didn't want to be separated from her. His anxiety and anger meant that she held a very important position in his heart.

Any woman would be deliriously happy if the man she loved showed that much care for her. Words were good, but actions worked so much better to show your love. And with Ricky's reaction, Pearl felt that her love was being reciprocated at last.

The old man was chuckling to himself, amused at their reactions. But soon, he turned serious and motioned for someone else to join them. At once, two figures approached from the same direction that the old man had come from.

Ricky gaped in shock at the sight, as he had recognized them immediately.

They were Stuart and Bruce, whom he had once met in the Dragon Cave.

As he looked at the men before him, he finally understood what was going.

Stuart and Bruce were members of the Celestial Sect, and the old man must be a very powerful warrior of the same sect. Of course, they would cast greedy eyes on the Feminine Mutant.

"As I expected, they are from the Celestial Sect. How could they let go of the Feminine Mutant once they found it?" the Dragon Intent Grass said. "But this may be an opportunity for Pearl."

"Ricky, long time no see. It's been two years since we saw each other. How have you been? I can't believe you've changed so much. I almost didn't recognize you," Stuart greeted Ricky with a warm smile.

"My physical features may have changed, but I assure you I am still the same inside." Ricky looked at them with a helpless expression, shaking his head slightly.

"You must have guessed my real identity correctly back then."

"More or less. After all, I don't think there are too many geniuses like you in the world," Stuart answered with a smile.
