Chapter 1320 Laura And Dave
Chapter 1320 Laura And Dave
The Corpse Lair was a detached expanse, which looked like a massive blood-colored ball shrouded by
blood-colored light from afar. The blood-colored light, however, didn't hold any power, so it couldn't stop
any creatures from entering the lair.
At this point, countless warriors had already gathered near the Corpse Lair, and all of them had one
goal in mind.
Just as Audrey had foretold, all these warriors had searched for days, but they could not find any
tokens in other places of the Corpse Blood Devil Rivers.
Of course, the Misty South Palace would not spread false news, and since they claimed that there were
tokens in this area, there certainly must be. A simple deduction pointed to the fact that it must be
somewhere inside the Corpse Lair, as it was the only place that they had yet to explore.
The warriors loitered around the lair with troubled looks on their faces, but none of them ventured
inside because they were afraid of the dangers it held. After all, the Black Blood Zombies and Devil
Zombies originated from there.
Even an upper spiritual emperor would be in danger if they dared to step foot inside.
While they were pacing back and forth around the lair, two teams arrived and caught their attention.
An enchanting white-robed woman led one of the teams. But compared to her looks, the noble and
unworldly aura she gave off attracted everyone even more.
The woman was none other than Laura, a disciple of the Abstinent Sect. She was well respected
among her fellow disciples in the sect.
The other team was led by a black-robed man sporting a majestic black crown. He looked dignified and
pompous, and the indifferent look in his eyes gave off an aloof vibe.
This young man was named Dave, and he was the son of the Black Flaming Phoenix tribe's leader.
Levi, whom Ricky had killed, was his younger brother. Of course, he had no idea that his brother had
died, as did the other members of the Black Flaming Phoenix tribe, not to mention that it was Ricky
who had killed Levi.
Otherwise, he would not be as calm as he was now.
As soon as the warriors who had already arrived earlier laid eyes on them, they began to whisper to
each other. "Laura and Dave are here! It looks like the Corpse Lair is indeed the only place where the
tokens can be found."
"But this isn't good for us. We will surely have a harder time getting our hands on the tokens now. Not
only will we have to face Black Blood Zombies and Devil Zombies there, but we will also have to
compete against two powerful warriors. Hell, even their men are stronger than us."
"Well, look at the bright side! Those Blood Zombies and Devil Zombies prefer stronger prey, so they
would undoubtedly gravitate toward the two powerful groups."
"Anyway, let's just hope we'll get lucky and get a chance to get a hold of those tokens."
Meanwhile, as soon as Dave arrived, the first thing he saw was Laura. "Laura!" he called out warmly.
He liked the woman because he thought of her as his powerful competitor, and, more than that, he felt
like she was the only one good enough for him in this area.
In sharp contrast to his warm response, Laura merely sent a frosty nod in his direction.
This somewhat upset Dave, and he sneered at her inwardly, 'Damn woman! Wait until I evolve into a
Great Phoenix, and I'll make you kiss my feet!'
After that, Laura and Dave entered the Corpse Lair to search.
Just as the duo was about to enter the lair with the people they had brought, Ricky and Audrey arrived.
To those who didn't know the pair, they looked like a strange pair—a lovely girl and a boy in rags. Their
presence attracted many warriors' attention. Besides their interesting appearances, there were a lot of
rumors about the two as well.
The white-haired boy was said to be incredibly strong, while the lovely girl was a human devil.
At this point, Audrey looked around and caught sight of Laura. "Hey, Laura!" she greeted the
enchanting woman enthusiastically.
"It looks like that you get on well with the people from the Abstinent Sect," Ricky commented
telepathically.
"Of course, I told you that before," Audrey readily answered.
The strange-looking pair came closer to Laura and her companions, who merely cast a glance towards
Ricky.
They looked at him only because they didn't know him, but none of them showed disdain or interest.
That was one of the remarkable features of the Abstinent Sect's members. They seldom showed any
emotions and treated all people equally, which showed that they held no prejudice against anything or
anyone.
Perhaps that was also the reason why the members of the Abstinent Sect got along well with the
Linghu Clan. They didn't discriminate against them or treat them badly.
"Did you leave home without telling anyone again?" Laura asked Audrey with a faint smile on her face,
one eyebrow raised teasingly.
"No. This time, I told my brother I'm coming here," replied Audrey with a playful smile.
"I see. Well, you can come with us," Laura offered kindly. She figured that most of the people here
would probably treat Audrey badly, so it would be better if Audrey stayed with her and her people.
"Thank you, Laura! But if it's okay, can my new friend come with us? His name is Soar Long," Audrey
introduced Ricky.
Ricky had used Soar's name since he thought that it would help him avoid trouble. Besides, no one
here knew who Soar really was at this point.
"No problem! He can come with us," said Laura coolly and nodded in agreement.
She genuinely didn't mind if Ricky joined them since Audrey seemed to like him a lot. Moreover, she
sensed that he was a middle spiritual emperor, so he would not be a burden to them.
"Ricky, let's go with Laura. I promise that you'll have your share of tokens once we find them," Audrey
then said to Ricky through telepathy. Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.
"I'm cool with that," Ricky readily agreed.
"Yay! By the way, I have something else to tell you. Do you see that red-haired young man behind
Dave?" she continued
"Yeah, why? What's wrong with him? Isn't he a member of the Black Flaming Phoenix tribe?" Ricky
curiously asked as his eyes narrowed thoughtfully at Dave's team.
"You're right. Their kind is always born with jet-black hair. Once they awaken their blood power and
evolve into the Great Phoenixes, their hair turns red. I also sensed that his blood power and strength
are stronger than Dave's. I think he descended directly from the Great Phoenix tribe,"
Audrey revealed as she subtly studied the red-haired man.
"What?! That guy is a Great Phoenix!" Audrey's words stunned Ricky for a moment.
But his control was excellent, so his shock didn't register on his face.
He gazed at the red-haired man, and a spark of hatred flashed in his eyes. However, the anger passed
through quickly, and no one was able to catch sight of it.
After all, he didn't think it was a good idea to attack the red-haired man in front of so many people.
Instead, he planned to make a move against him inside the Corpse Lair.
Ricky hated the Great Phoenix tribe to the core, and he would never spare their lives if he crossed
paths with them.
The others had not noticed Ricky's wrath, but his killing intent didn't escape the red-haired young man,
and a hint of bewilderment flashed across his eyes. The young man with long red hair couldn't think of
anyone who wanted him dead, so he had no idea where the feeling of malice had come from. After all,
he didn't see anyone who had problems with him here.
But he soon dismissed the feeling, for he didn't think that the warriors present could pose a threat to
him.
"Ricky, why do you want him dead so badly? Do you have any grudge against the Black Flaming
Phoenix tribe and the Great Phoenix tribe?" Audrey asked out of curiosity when her Sense Mutant
detected Ricky's murderous intent.
"No. I just don't see eye to eye with the Great Phoenix tribe," Ricky responded coolly once he had
calmed down.
"I agree with you there. I hate the Great Phoenix tribe more than any other force in the world. They are
too self-conceited and think that they are so much better than others," agreed Audrey enthusiastically.
'Just wait, Great Phoenix tribe! It won't be long now before I grow strong enough to eliminate you for
good!' Ricky swore to himself inwardly.
