Chapter 289 The Death Of The Siblings
Chapter 289 The Death Of The Siblings
The Netherworld Deathly Claw was now what Ricky had to deal with next.
'It's time to test the power of the Seventh Degree of Nine-degree Body Refining Formula, ' Ricky
thought, his eyes gleaming with excitement. He began to summon the Nine-degree Body Refining
Formula, eyes closed in concentration.
Soon, the blue glow was replaced by a purple hue and the aura which surrounded Ricky grew even
more intense.
Ricky waved his fist, and a beam of purple light shooting out of it as he stared at the Netherworld
Deathly Claw rushing right at him.
Instead of using any cultivation method or skill derived from one, Ricky punched with his bare fist. He
was wholly confident about both the Seventh Degree of Nine-degree Body Refining Formula and his
strength.
"You're looking for death!" Myron growled ferociously as he watched Ricky fight off their most powerful
attack with his body refining cultivation method. Just moments ago he had been confident that Ricky
would be crushed to pieces by this attack!
But he failed to consider that his opponent wasn't any ordinary warrior. It was Ricky.
Ricky's fist collided with the Netherworld Deathly Claw. Several strands of intense deathly energy and
brute aura rushed towards Ricky's strike from every direction like a raging tidal wave, but soon they
had all been burnt out by the flames in Ricky's body.
The Deathly Enchanting Illusion of Anne didn't seem to work against him!
After a short while, a loud thud resounded. It was no longer a deadlock.
The Netherworld Deathly Claw had been completely obliterated by Ricky's purple light strike!
The moment the claw shattered, Myron spat out a mouthful of blood.
Meanwhile, the power and the shadow around him rapidly dissipated.
The attacking skill he had used was dark and evil, which was one of the moves of the Evil Dual Attack.
He had mustered all his strength in this attack, and when Ricky broke it, his arteries and veins were
badly injured.
Myron fell to the ground like a felled tree.
"Devouring Storm!" Ricky shouted, no signs of mercy on his face. He summoned the devouring runes
which then transformed into a rune storm and flew towards Myron.
"Myron!" Anne shouted anxiously at the sight of the danger speeding towards her brother.
She withdrew her power and stood defiantly in front of Myron, trying to defend him with her physical
body.
"No! Anne!" Myron roared hysterically, his face in a terrified grimace at the sight of his sister.
But it was too late. The Devouring Storm pierced Anne's body and she fell dead onto the ground at the
same moment Ricky alighted.
Ricky was shocked. He hadn't expected Anne to sacrifice herself for Myron.
"Ricky, it's… It's kind of touching!" Soar said.
"The relationship between the siblings is closer than I expected. I'm moved too, but I'll never show
mercy to my enemies just because of that," Ricky replied in a low voice, his eyes only hinting at the
softness he felt.
His kindness and mercy were never for his enemies, even if they had moved him.
"Anne! Why did you do this?" Myron wrapped around Anne's body with his arms, sobbing miserably. He
felt a sea of despair rush throughout his entire being.
Ricky didn't move. He stood still, waiting. He let Myron expel his grief.
Myron eventually grew quieter and shifted his gaze at him. Ricky spoke, "I admire the love between
you and your sister, but I won't let go of you because of that. And since I killed your sister, I know you
wouldn't let go of me too. So let's get on with it!"
However, to Ricky's surprise, Myron smiled at him.
Strangely, Ricky didn't see any murderous intent or hatred in his smile. Instead, there were signs of
gratitude.
"I'm not going to seek revenge on you. Maybe I should thank you. I appreciate that you came," Myron
said.
Ricky was shocked. Soar, who was coiling around his arm, also gasped.
"I don't understand," Ricky remarked.
"My sister and I were raised up by Stan. We lived miserable lives in this world for about thirty years!"
Myron said, his eyes showing a vast emptiness.
"Stan forced us to practice the damn Evil Dual Attack technique ever since we were young kids. We
spent almost all our days in a secluded dark room.
These past years, we thought about killing ourselves many, many times. Who would want to continue a
life without dignity? But we always remembered that before our mother died, she told us to try our best
to survive. Nothing will be left of you once you die.
Because of my mother, I have been living until now.
Since Stan died, the Arhat Palace has been destroyed, and our dearest brother Nathan has been killed
too. It's time for our suffering to end."
Hearing that, Ricky and Soar fell silent. They could hear the genuine sentiment in Myron's sad voice.
Now they knew that everything the siblings had done were because they had been coerced by Stan!
Ricky finally figured out why he had always seen a tinge of sadness in Myron's eyes.
"You're even worse off than I am. I was only betrayed by my best friend, but you were put into such a
miserable situation by your father!" Ricky blurted out.
"Oh? I'm surprised to hear that you used to be a poor man once!" Myron said, smiling sadly.
"Well, you can take your sister away. Just leave the Chaotic Region. You can come back for me at any
time in the future if you want to avenge her," Ricky continued.
Ricky himself was rather surprised to hear these words escape from his mouth. He didn't know why he
would let go of Myron! Apparently, he had been moved more than he thought!
"You're going to let me go? Aren't you afraid that the story I just told is a lie?" Myron asked with
surprise.
"Being cheated one more time will be nothing to me. I can live with the consequences. But if I find out
that you were lying, I'll hunt you down, wherever you may be," Ricky answered.
"Ha-ha! You're really something else, aren't you? But you underestimate me. I love my sister with all my
heart. She was my only happiness," Myron said with a bitter laugh.
He suddenly struck himself forcefully on the head with his right palm.
He fell onto his sister, the two siblings together in death.
"Why are you so stubborn?" Ricky sighed. He was not surprised. The siblings had gone through terrible
things together. For years they had nothing but each other in this hell. Their bond must have been
extraordinary.
But Ricky had been sincere in being willing to let Myron go. All content © N/.ôvel/Dr/ama.Org.
"Ricky, those siblings were really pitiful," Soar said with a sigh.
