Chapter 1208 Unexpected Visitors
Chapter 1208 Unexpected Visitors
The Misty South Palace was the strongest power on the Misty South, and it was also the oldest force to
exist. Their founder started the group way back at the very beginning of the devil race's invasion, for
the Misty South Palace was born to resist the devil race.
Of course, another important reason why the Misty South Palace was the most influential force was
that top warriors in every era would appear in the Misty South Palace.
It was no exception in this era. Otis, the most powerful man on the continent, was the current lord of the
Misty South Palace.
The Misty South Palace was strong indeed, but their top warriors seldom stayed in this continent, as
the devil race had not moved around. Perhaps, the Misty South Palace's only activity here was
recruiting talented disciples in the Middle Land and training them.
Any force, especially a strong one, would undoubtedly be offended if they found another force with the
same name. If they discovered that Ricky had established a force with the name of the Misty South
Palace, it could end disastrously for him.
The Misty South Palace was the mightiest force on the Misty South, so he could just imagine what they
would do if another party had the same name as them.
And even if the Misty South Palace didn't show up to teach Ricky a lesson, their allies and friends
would definitely come to take action.
If that were the case, how could Ricky not dwell on it?
Fortunately, the Misty South Palace kept a low profile, and they didn't have any idea of the existence of
Ricky's force.
Otherwise, Ricky would have made a fool of himself when he first established his force and called it the
Misty South Palace.
"Boy, you are incredibly arrogant, but you're lucky that it has not yet blown up on your face. You need to
make a Shadowy Replication right now and send it to the Eastern Land via your space. You need to tell
your friends to disband that your damn Misty South Palace as soon as possible," the Dragon Intent
Grass advised Ricky firmly, looking helpless and utterly exasperated.
"Okay, okay. I'll do that now." Ricky nodded urgently.
He then made a Shadowy Replication, which he immediately sent for the Eastern Land.
However, Ricky was quite disappointed because he didn't want to disband his Misty South Palace.
After all, he once wanted it to be the number one force on the continent. But now, it seemed like an
impossible dream.
Perhaps, he could put that dream aside for now, and he could get back to it once he had become the
most powerful man in the Misty South.
Meanwhile, Tina and Amelia couldn't help laughing when they saw how dejected Ricky looked.
"Now, let's get down to business," the Dragon Intent Grass said, redirecting their focus. "Tina is right. If
you want to join any force, the Misty South Palace is the best choice. There are colleges in the three
major regions of the Middle Land led by the Misty South Palace, and they accept any talent that can
pass their test.
If you take their test, I'm sure you will pass, and then you can join the Misty South Palace. The
selection process is quite rigorous, but with your talent, it should not be difficult."
"Yes, you made a good point," Tina chimed in. "Ricky, joining the Misty South Palace will boost your
popularity, and it won't even matter that you're still at the bottom of the barrel. Anyone who wants to
challenge you will have to think twice, for you will have the Misty South Palace behind you."
She paused for a short moment and then added, "What's more, it will undoubtedly help you in the
future when you get to the Phoenix tribe. Honestly, I think the only force that can frighten the Phoenix
tribe is the most powerful force on all four continents.
And besides, the Misty South Palace is a place full of talents from various forces. It is precisely what
you are looking for!"
"You're right. It seems that I have to join the Misty South Palace," Ricky said, nodding in agreement
when he heard Tina's words.
"Remember this, boy. Don't tell anyone that you established a force called the Misty South Palace.
Make sure that this information will remain as it should—a secret," the Dragon intent grass sternly
reminded him again.
"Don't worry. I'm not stupid. That will be like asking for death," Ricky quickly answered as he curled his
lips in a frown.
After half a day, Ricky and the two girls finally spotted the first city in the Middle Land.
The Middle Land was indeed worthy of its reputation. Even though this first city was its outermost city, it NôvelDrama.Org content rights.
still seemed rather vast.
As soon as they saw some people, Ricky immediately approached them to get more information about
the region they were currently in. He also probed deeper about the significant events that had
happened in the Misty South Palace.
Unfortunately, they found that the Misty South Palace's recruitment in the outer region had already
been finished one year ago. Even worse, their next recruitment activity would be done after two years.
As for the name of this region, it was commonly known as the Five-element Region. The Middle Land
divided their area with simple rules, which meant that they named the regions after the force that
dominated them.
That strongly resembled the famous martial world rule—those who are weak become the prey for the
strong. The stronger creatures would always rule over the weaker ones.
This area covered an area of ten million miles, and the Five-element Sect controlled its entirety.
"It seems that we cannot depend on the Misty South Palace anymore.
Perhaps, we need to have a look at the other forces for the time being," Ricky commented. They were
currently at an inn, discussing what they should do to move forward. He continued,
"I can't just wait for two years without doing anything. I'm afraid that the Five-element Sect is out of the
question because of what happened in the Emperor Beast Swamp and the matter of the Five-element
Flag.
Let us rest here for the day, and then we'll proceed to other regions tomorrow. Maybe we will meet
some Sage Level forces that are recruiting disciples along the way." "Understood!"
The two girls nodded and went ahead to rest their weary bodies.
However, things didn't go as they had planned. Ricky underestimated the influence that the Five-
element Sect exerted over the region, and he had no idea what the day had in store for him next.
Less than half a day after they arrived at the inn, an acquaintance suddenly came unexpectedly.
A young man in white appeared in the inn's lobby, holding a folding fan in his hand. He had the ethereal
beauty of a woman, and his subordinates followed him from behind. "Isn't that Raylan? Why did he
come here?"
Every warrior in the inn was taken aback at the sight of this young man. After all, he wasn't the type of
man to visit a lowly inn like this, so he must have some kind of agenda here, and it must be incredibly
important.
"The last time that we saw each other, we were opponents. Now, show yourself! You owe me that much
since I came here to meet you in person!" Raylan announced. He didn't pay any mind to the warriors
whispering around him, and he daintily flicked his hand fan closed.
"It seems that we have underestimated the Five-element Sect. We have been in this city for barely half
a day, but they have already discovered us!" uttered Ricky helplessly. He was still inside the room,
accompanying the two girls who were panicking now.
"What should we do?" Tina cried out worriedly.
Ricky immediately comforted her and said, "It's okay. You two just stay here while I go and meet Raylan
outside.
I'm afraid that he might have brought some strong warriors with him."
"Ha-ha! What a surprise, Raylan! I didn't expect that you would come here in person," Ricky replied
with a teasing smile after he tore through space to appear right in the hall.
As soon as their eyes met, Ricky and Raylan confronted each other. Their power and momentums
surged and flowed over each other as if looking for a weak spot.
Ricky could feel that Raylan had become more formidable in the short time that they didn't see each
other. It seemed normal to him, though, since he had defeated Raylan last time. Thus, Raylan must
have doubled his efforts in practice to be stronger the next time they saw each other.
"Who is this white-haired young man?" Some of the crowd began to whisper.
"Is he a genius from some other region's strong Sage Level force? Is that why Raylan came here to
visit him in person?" Seeing Ricky, all the warriors around felt their curiosity boil up to overwhelming
levels.
"Raylan, you moved really fast! You are even one step faster than me." At this point, a delicate voice
rang out, and another group of warriors also arrived at the inn hall.
The leader of the group was a masked woman—Ashley.
"It's Ashley!" When the surrounding warriors saw the woman, they were even more astonished. That
was especially true of those male warriors, who acted like they had seen a goddess when she
appeared.
"Ricky, Ashley is also here. It seems like today is full of surprises. If you think something is wrong, don't
hesitate to run away, and don't be afraid of being exposed. You have to put your life before anything
else, you hear me?" the Dragon Intent Grass earnestly advised.
