Upon hearing the Evil Mandragora's words, Ricky fell silent.
That was because what she had said made perfect sense. Now that she possessed a level of power higher than that of their opponents, she would not experience much difficulty the moment her decision to stand out during the battle and defeat those spiritual emperors was resolved. On the other hand, since she cultivated the Genuine Evil Spirit, she would then be viewed as a devil.
If they found that she had arrived here together with Ricky, then they would think that Ricky was in collusion with devils.
As such, any details and news about the current fight here today would quickly spread throughout the entire Eastern Land.
Maybe no one in the Eastern Land dared to stand up and fight Ricky, but that did not eliminate the possibility that the powerful spiritual emperors in the other lands, including those in the Middle Land, would appear. When that happened, Ricky would face numerous powerful enemies.
It was possible that no one except for his friends would believe that he truly had nothing to do with the devils.
"Oh, thank you for reminding me about that, Evil Mandragora. Perhaps, you should try not to fight in public in the future," Ricky remarked in a low and serious voice.
Boom! Suddenly, a loud roar resounded through the void. The battle among the twelve great spiritual emperors had reached the white-hot stage. The Oriental Emperor and the Evil Emperor seemed close to reaching defeat. There was truly no chance of victory for each of them after fighting against two spiritual emperors at the same time.
"Oriental Emperor, let me give you a piece of advice. Stop being so stubborn. Give the ten disciples to us. If you don't cooperate, then you already know the consequences that will take place!" Isaac strongly warned his opponent once again.
"Cut the crap," the Oriental Emperor yelled back in a firm and loud voice. "For a very long time, you have been plotting everything that is taking place right now. Yet why do you still keep on talking so much nonsense? There is no denying the fact that you are able to kill me. Still, one of you must die." His ruling power had increased to the maximum.
Isaac and Winston were in disbelief. Their pupils abruptly shrank in response to the Oriental Emperor's words. The Oriental Emperor was right. If they managed to successfully kill the Oriental Emperor, then it was very likely that one of them would also perish and join him in his death.
However, Isaac and Winston were able to regain their composure quickly. Besides, if they were not absolutely sure of winning, then they would not have decided to fight against the Oriental College in the first place.
Isaac retorted in a sinister and mischievous tone, "Oriental Emperor, such being the case, your Oriental College will be completely ruined and along with its downfall, its long history will instantly crumble to dust." While speaking, the evil spirit around him had already gathered and reached its maximum
Misty South, I won't let the Oriental Emperor and the Evil Emperor die in my stead," Ricky declared.
Although the real reason for the fight was the exaggerated ambition shared by the Nether Manor and the Endless Shadow, Ricky still served as a blasting fuse. Therefore, he believed he was also the one to blame and he should take responsibility.
Wasting no more time, Ricky decided to release Doris' mutant.
Bang! However, before he was able to do that, there was stronger ruling power that had already begun to spread in the void. The said mighty ruling power directly crushed the attacks of both Isaac and Winston.
Seeing what had happened, all the other groups currently engaged in battle abruptly halted.
A furious voice came through. "Up until this time, there hasn't been any force able to destroy our Oriental College yet. At least, there isn't any force in the whole Eastern Land capable of doing that!"
Then, an old man showed up. It was the Old Oriental Emperor.
"Old Oriental Emperor!" Although his appearance was sudden and unexpected, all the disciples of the Oriental College were very excited to see him.
The Oriental Emperor and the Evil Emperor also uttered a sigh of relief.
"Old Oriental Emperor, you finally arrived," Isaac said coldly, his eyes casting a gloomy expression.
The Old Oriental Emperor found it difficult to contain his anger. "If I hadn't shown up, you guys would go ahead and act wildly here as if you own the entire place, right?" The Old Oriental Emperor launched an attack against Isaac as soon as he finished speaking.
"Now that you declared you would destroy my Oriental College, show me how powerful you are!"
"Evil Mandragora, just how powerful is the Old Oriental Emperor?" Ricky asked telepathically.
"Well, he is about to be a middle spiritual emperor very soon. That means he can defeat all the spiritual emperors here with ease," the Evil Mandragora answered. "It seems that I don't need to blow my cover and fight after all."
