Born Almighty Warrior
Chapter 396 Ricky’s Fury

Snap! Snap! The sound of knuckles cracking resounded in the area.

The moment Seth finished speaking, the crisp sound came abruptly, growing even more ferocious when he humiliated Grace with the word, 'ugly.’ Needless to say, the sound was from Ricky's clenching hands—he was clearly in great fury, now.

Who was Grace? What was she to Ricky? For him, she was to be most respected person, apart from being one of the most important people in his heart—he loved and cherished her life and reputation above his own.

Seth's deliberate, harsh words had offended Ricky, almost to the point of stepping in. At that point, he would never forgive Seth's behavior.

However, Grace seemed to show no reaction whatsoever to the word, “ugly.’

After all, she had already heard too much of the same. To stop herself from lashing out, she could only pretend to be indifferent to such insults. As time passed, she turned immune to it on the surface. But no woman in the world didn't care about their appearance. Even Grace couldn't deny that the words were hurtful deep down, and too harsh for any woman.

At that moment, she and all those on-site noticed Ricky's obvious change.

Well aware of why Ricky was enraged, she was touched—she knew he wanted to protect her.

But she wasn't yet fully aware that Ricky's reaction was not only due to his respect for her as a master of martial arts.

"Haha! You've fallen in love with this ugly woman, haven't you?"

As Seth teased him, he burst out laughing in delight and the four warriors from the Wang Clan followed suit.

Felicia, however, was feeling a little uncomfortable. With her instinct as a woman, she could tell that Seth had hit the nail on the head—even if Grace wasn't an attractive woman, Ricky seemed to have had some special feelings for her.

The truth was hard to believe. It wasn't that Ricky wasn't allowed to fall in love with Grace—it just came as a surprise to find that he would fall in love with someone who wasn't considered “beautiful, * especially in the world of warriors where the strong preyed on the weak.

Although Grace had attractive features, the red birthmark on her face made people regard her as hideous.

While Felicia always thought she was pretty, along the way of their trip, she figured that Ricky merely regarded her as one of his friends—he didn't look at her with the affectionate eyes he had for Grace.

From his silent fury, it was obvious that Grace had a great hold on Ricky's heart.

"Whoever dares insult my master will have to die!"

Hearing Seth and his sidekicks laughing, Ricky roared ferociously.

Now, Grace was also aware that Ricky's fury had shifted from before. This time, he seemed to have lost his temper not only because of their relationship as a master and disciple but also because of his affection for her. As a woman, Grace had such an intuition.

"Does... does Ricky..." Grace muttered to herself quietly as she came to terms with the matter.

But she did not have the courage to think any further.

Although there weren't many laws in the world of warriors, his feelings for her were against the norm. Of course, if Ricky became an undefeated warrior, no one would dare to gossip about his relationship. Such was the privilege of a strong warrior. But he was not one of them and whether or not he could become one could only be determined later on.

"Master? She is his master?"

Hearing what Ricky announced, Seth and his companions were left stunned.

'If she's his master... they can't be in love!" Felicia instantly thought. But she couldn't deny that the news also sparked a trace of inexplicable excitement.

"Haha! Master... she's actually your master! You two shouldn't be involved in anything romantic. I can't believe that the Ricky, famous in the Realm of Wildness, not only loves an ugly woman... she also happens to be his own master! Haha!"

Hearing Ricky's ferocious roaring, Seth teased him in disdain, only bursting into more laughter.

"Or, have you two long been..."

Boom!

But before Seth could finish speaking, a violent burst resounded in the area. The strong force of the windstorm spread, and everyone could feel the power of its rage.

The next moment, the powerful gravity appeared, increasing that of the whole area.

In Ricky's left palm, a black hole formed—it was the powerful, large Wind Hole he obtained from the Fortune Land. The Hole grew large in an instant. Then, the strong wind of gravity escaped the Hole and headed for Seth in an unstoppable fury.

On top of the gravitational windstorm, the warriors on the spot could vaguely see a burning, black flame, rather subdued. At first glance, they decided to ignore it.

But a keen observer would have figured out that it was the Heaven Illuminating Fire, deliberately added by Ricky on top of the chaotic fire runes.

Overwhelmed by his fury at that moment, Ricky launched his strongest attack, intending to kill Seth. "This... this is the large Wind Hole!" Seth exclaimed. Seeing the strong storm and feeling the dangerous atmosphere it was exuding, Seth could recognize the power in a single glance.

"How is that possible? Your power is only at the average level of demi-immortal. How come you have the power to summon a large Wind Hole?" Seth snarled bitterly. And for the first time in years, fear crept into his eyes.

The next moment, he backed off instinctively.

But the huge wind of gravity swept around the area too fast. It could only be subdued by a strong warrior at the peak of demi-immortal.

Thus, Seth and the other four warriors of the Wang Clan hardly had enough time to escape. Soon enough, they were all trapped inside the wind.

Being the cruel man that he was, Seth wanted to make use of the other four sidekicks, knowing that he would be unable to escape the wind trap. He then gave the order, "All of you, stand behind me and infuse your spiritual energy power into my body."

Hearing his order, the four didn't hesitate. Jumping right behind him, they broke out their spiritual energy power to the max, injecting the power into his body.

Although Seth was the young master of the Wang Clan, they couldn't trust him wholeheartedly.

But at that critical moment, they were left with no choice but to place all their bets on him, knowing that the four of them wouldn't last a second inside the wind of gravity, even as a unit.

Boom! Boom!

With the perfusion of the four's spiritual energy into Seth's body, the power of the furious flame increased in an instant and exploded a few seconds later, surpassing his original power dramatically. When Ricky suddenly launched the strong power of the windstorm, Grace couldn't be more surprised, finding it difficult to imagine how Ricky managed to conquer the large Wind Hole.

"The Scorching Flame-Twisting Fire Rope!" Seth bellowed furiously to summon his fiercest attack. As if hearing the summon instantly, the scorching flame rose to its peak power. This was the most powerful and final cultivation method that Seth could hope to use.

The scorching flame moved like a python, intertwining, twisting, and transforming into a huge, rope-like flame.

It then surrounded Seth's body. He kept his hands crossed to strengthen the defending power of the rope.

But at that moment, Seth excluded the four sidekicks in his Twisting Fire Rope, simply allowing them to be engulfed by the wind of gravity.

"Young master, help us!" they shouted desperately. Seth's cruelty was disappointing and hurtful, but all they could do was to desperately shout for help.

"Hey, you four, it's an honor to have the chance to risk your lives for me. Don't worry about your death. I'll avenge you four once I resist the wind of gravity,” Seth responded coldly to the cry for help.

With that, he no longer paid any attention to the four, devoting all his energy instead to the Twisting Fire Rope.
