Chapter 554 Heading For The Three-hall City (1/2)

Knowing that Soar had already made up his mind to leave, Ricky just gave him a smile even though he knew that Soar took the matter seriously.

”Then what are you waiting for, bro? Get yourself ready. We should waste no time. We need to get to the Three-hall City to save your princess,” Ricky urged in a cheerful voice.

However, Soar's determination quickly vanished. He became hesitant now that Ricky had offered his help to go with him. ”Well, I can go there alone. I think it would be best if you stay in the Oriental College. Don't worry, I can manage,” he said in a mild and confident tone.

”I guess you're quite afraid that I might be caught by the Luxurious Chamber of Commerce, right?” Ricky asked with all honesty after thinking about the situation for a while.

”Yes, you're right about that. I mean, you really don't have to take the risk for me,” Soar nodded with a frown on his face. At that point, he was really worried about Ricky's safety.

”We are sworn brothers, and this is no secret already. Everyone knows that. So it's just fair to say that if they discover you, it would also mean that they have already discovered me, too. Even if we don't act together, they would still find the clues that link us together. After all, do you think I would stand by and do nothing if you got into some trouble? Come on, I know you would do the same thing for me. So why not take this one together, starting from the beginning? It will eventually save a lot of troubles I'm sure,” Ricky said as he tried to persuade Soar into letting him go with him.

”I see. You make a fair point. I guess, you should get ready then. Let's go,” Soar replied as he saw the sincerity in Ricky's eyes. With that, he didn't insist on leaving him behind anymore.

He knew that Ricky was telling the truth about their situation. Deep in his heart, Soar also knew that Ricky would do anything to help and save him if ever he was caught by the hostile forces. If that were the case, but hopefully not, then it was justifiable that they went together, so that each of them had back up. After all, if they were that unfortunate as being caught and discovered, they still had a trick up their sleeve—the Chaotic Fire Zone. They could easily hide inside the zone which would then reduce the risk of getting caught in the first place.

”But I think we should still prepare for some other things before we can go,” Ricky said with a smile on his excited face.

Afterwards, Soar went with Ricky to the Weapon Casting Department to meet Cameron. Soar was out of words as he heard what Ricky asked from Cameron—three masks made of human skin. But then Soar realized what Ricky wanted to do with them. Out of all the casting masters, Ricky was sure that he had put his trust on the right hands as he knew that Cameron could make them. This genius idea was for their disguise. Any warrior below a demi-spiritual emperor wouldn't be able to detect the real faces behind them if they wore those masks.

Upon hearing his request, Cameron already knew that Ricky wanted to go out and practice. Although he did not want to let Ricky leave the college gates and act alone, he still did what he was asked to do. Cameron, realizing Ricky's need for a disguise, knew that it was impossible for the young man to make fast progress if he were only confined inside the walls of the college yard.

With this, Cameron didn't refuse the request, nor did he ask more about what it was for. In fact, he had even asked the Heavenly Ape Demi-spiritual Emperor to come and help him with the casting with the use of his ruling power.
