The Legacy System

But before he could reach his target, another batch of annoying flies appeared suddenly inside the cave and went for his open back.

These guys didn\'t even try to think about defending the target in front of him, they immediately went for his weak spot.

They were trying to take advantage of the situation to injure him as much as they could, they didn\'t seem to care about the life or death of their comrade.

On the other hand, Eric had no intention of throwing his Blood Clone to death just for a weak, and feeble level 70 something fighter.

So, he didn\'t continue with his attack, but instead changed his trajectory a bit, so that he just dodged around the target in front of him, and then let him act as a shield for the three people attacking his back.

\'Boommm… booommm… booommmm~!\'

Immediately after three exploding sounds came from behind him, as he benefited from the opportunity to turn around and look at the new group of attackers.

Even though these three guys were in lower levels than him, they still had the advantage of numbers, and he wouldn\'t be able to deal with them easily.

.

The first group had gone down quite easily due to the fact that they didn\'t expect his sudden surge in power, and were caught by surprise, but now even if he used the same trick, it wouldn\'t work.

Even if he surged his level, he could go at least level 99 but that didn\'t secure him the necessary strength, or power to deal with these three guys easily.

Certainly, Eric was a Realm 1 cultivator, or fighter, or being, and he could easily swat these guys down like flies, but his clone wasn\'t.

At the same time, Eric\'s main body was much stronger and powerful than those of the same level, but that was only for his original body, the clones weren\'t included in that cheat-like ability.

So right now, he was fighting like a normal level 93 fighter, it was clear that this situation would be much more difficult for him to solve using only his clone.

But he had never thought of doing something like that, he was using his Blood Clone only as bait material.

Furthermore, the new situation was complicated only for him, but even for the newcomers, as their duty was to bait him out, and not push him deeper.

It was precisely for that reason, that after landing their attacks on the remaining guy alive, they didn\'t follow him inside the cave, but stopped and were looking towards him warily.

On the other hand, Eric was looking at the results of their actions, which was now only a badly mutilated body, with no sign of life inside it.

Even though these guys were supposed to be on the same side they weren\'t exactly comrades, in fact, one could say that they were hoodlums fighting on the same side.

They would certainly work together until they had captured him, but after that, they would most probably start fighting once again to determine who got the riches and might even kill each other in the process.

Eric had intentionally plastered a \'fake\' calm look on his face, as he looked at the three new faces, and said with a solemn and heavy tone,

"Who are you guys!? I don\'t remember having a feud with you!"

"Hahahhaha~! Kid, you are extremely naïve! Do you think that people would chase you down just because they have a feud with you?

Hahahah~! We don\'t care about that sh*it! You have something that we want, and since we are stronger than you then we will take it from you!

It\'s as easy as that! Hahaah~!"

Hearing that, the \'fake\' calm face of the Blood Clone turned extremely dark and gloomy, as he looked at the new arrivals like he was attending a funeral.

That expression of his just made the whole situation even funnier for the three guys in front of him, that looked like they had just seen a great comic scene.

But that was all there was to it, as words could only bring them up to that point, and it was time for actions, as the three of them attacked almost at the same time.

They all jumped towards Eric in formation, one in the middle and two on the sides completely sealing his frontal view.

Even though Eric\'s Blood Clone was only holding his \'Silent Reaper\' dagger in his hand, it didn\'t panic or fluster, as it stayed calm and waited for the attacks to reach him.

it was quite a funny situation as both sides were trying their best to act, and more than a life-risking fight it was an acting scene.

Eric was acting like he was all the time on his guard, trying his best to push them away, while the three guys in front of him were acting as if they were getting sloppier with each passing moment.

It was quite the beautiful acting, each side trying their best, with one side unaware of the other side acting.

Even Eric himself was having trouble controlling himself and his laughter in this situation, as he watched the lousy acting of the people in front of him.

Still, he pretended to not doubt it in the least, as he saw the three of them get sloppier and more vulnerable with each attack.

In fact, two out of the three of them had even intentionally allowed Eric to injure them, as they clashed with him continuously.

As he saw that the group of three was using the full potential of their crude acting skills to put on a show to pull him away from the cave, Eric decided to perform his acting skills in full as well.

With that decision made, he looked at the group of three with a sneer on his face, as he then started taunting them with a look of pride and arrogance,

"Hmph~! Where did your superior strength disappear scum!? You dare to come and try to rob this daddy\'s things with this meager strength of yours!?

Don\'t you think that you are looking at Mount Tai and not recognizing it?"

The faces of the three fighters across him turned ugly as they heard those words, if it weren\'t for the persistence of that level 99 guy to bring him outside, why would they bother doing something like this.

They were sure that even if they wouldn\'t be able to kill Eric with their strength, they would surely manage to cut a big chunk out of him.

This guy was clearly pushing his luck, as long as they managed to pull him out of the cave, then they would show him what it meant to not recognize mount Tai even if it was in front of him.

Just like any other Young Master who knew to bully the weak and fear the strong Eric seemed to have understood that this was his moment, so he quickly followed up his words,

"Hahahaha~! What trash! You aren\'t even worthy of me using my all strength! Weak and useless trash like you should just go and commit suicide!

Hahahah~!"

The faces of the three in front of him were getting uglier and uglier, but they still didn\'t dare act upon those feelings of anger and rage.

They just kept attacking him continuously, and retreating back like they were unable to keep up with his counterattacks, while Eric continued trash-talking,

"Hahahah~! You are truly useless! I wonder how your parents would feel for giving birth to such trash!

I am sure that they would have chosen to swallow you or abort you if they learned how useless you are! Hahahah~!"

The faces of the trio across him contort in an even uglier form, they seemed like they would swallow Eric whole if they had the opportunity and make him suffer for as long as he was alive.

Offending them, while extremely unpleasing was still something that they could bear, but this guy had gone for their families and parents.

No matter how useless a son was, he would still think of his parents, and family. In fact, that was the reason why they would be willing to do something like this in the first place.

So, hearing Eric say those words to them, they felt like their blood was boiling in anger and rage, just like molten lava.

Still, even though their faces were on the ugliest form that they could be, the trio still kept to their plan and kept retreating.

Soon they would be able to make Eric get out of that damned cave, and it would be their win. There was no doubt about it.

But when Eric was just 20 meters away from the entrance, he seemed to have found out something, as he suddenly stopped, and screamed,

"You motherfu*ckers are trying to trap this daddy! Do you think I am so gullible!?"

Those words were like a bomb on their heads, as they would have never thought that this damned kid would easily find out about their plan.

Not only that, but he was also extremely decisive as the moment he said that he immediately stopped pushing forward and started backing down.

It didn\'t require much intelligence to understand that Eric had discovered their trap and was trying to escape, coupled with the anger and rage of the trio up to that point, they decided to break all pretenses.

"Damned motherfu*cker surrender your life!"

Without losing even a second of time, the three of them jumped in the attack against the Blood Clone, and at the same time, the trio outside jumped towards the cave.

It was clear that their plan had been spoiled now, and they could only go with the direct approach, and try to kill him as soon as possible.

Unaware that the real danger had been so close to them all this time…
