Grand Ancestral Bloodlines

Chapter 661 Backer

The instant the barrier shattered, Ryu knew that his attack would fail. Even though he had used his absolute fastest attack speed, when comparing himself to a World Sea Realm expert, the gap was simply too enormous. It didn't matter that they were several tens of kilometers away while Ryu was a mere few hundred meters from Galkos' burnt up body.

In a flash, Ryu's lightning arrow was extinguished and he didn't even bother to launch a second attack. He stood calmly as though none of what was happening had anything to do with him. Rather, his gaze just shifted toward a particular direction, landing on the World Sea Realm expert who had acted on Galkos' behalf.

The World Sea Realm expert in question, a man with flowing white hair that had nothing to do with his age, raised his brows when he saw Ryu's gaze. He found it hard to believe that an Immortal Ring Realm brat could actually tell which of them had made a move just now. But, it hardly mattered….

Right at that moment, the powerful auras descended. One after another, they crashed into Ryu, their goals clearer than day. Not only did they solidify the space in the surroundings even more than they already had, but they had ensured that every action of Ryu's was within their control and scope.

The Martial Gods weren't fools, nor did they believe that Ryu would actually be so insanely moronic to provoke them without backing. With all the powerhouses of the Martial World currently present, it was even possible that Ryu's backer was already here.

The World Sea Realm experts all looked around, measuring the intent of those around them. None of them wanted to be the man who got stabbed in the back to spark this battle. For the first time, the Martial Gods felt that it might have been a mistake to invite everyone to witness their glory. Not only had their geniuses been humiliated by a man who was clearly not one of their own, but now they could very well end up in a battle when they had only come here today to spectate the rise of a new King and Queen.

Surprisngly, the first of the World Sea Realm experts to move was Queen Athelina. However, her destination wasn't Ryu and Elena at all, but rather her two daughters. This action sent the World Sea Realm experts through a world wind of emotions before they finally settled down.

Clearly, Queen Athelina didn't want her daughters getting swept up into this mess. She also didn't really care about the emotions of the others.

Seeing that Isemeine and Zenavey were still at a head with each other, though, Athelina could only sigh and shake her head. [Author's Note: called Isemeine's mother Solorae earlier. This was a mistake. Her name is Athelina.]

"Don't look at me like that mom. I just saved her life and she's still not grateful." Isemeine snorted.

"You saved whose life?! I wasn't planning on charging anyway. And he's lucky I didn't."

"Lucky?" Isemeine snorted again. "He's right there, your cultivation is higher than his by an entire Realm and they all want nothing more than to kill him. Go prove that he's lucky."

"Ohoho, I get it. So you actually want to defend him. Why, cause he's your first time? You'll probably be really sad when he dies then, right?"

"Sad? Sure, I'll be sad that I didn't get the chance to kill him myself."

Zenavey burst out into a fit of laughter. "You're jealous that he's chasing after Queen Elena? Couldn't you have a little bit more backbone than this? I'm ashamed to be your sister.

"Instead of being jealous, why don't you go find a better man."

"A better man, huh? I will find one better than him one day, but I can't say the same for you. If you manage to find one even half as good as him I'll call you big sis for a lifetime and wash your feet whenever you want me to." Isemeine sneered.

Watching the once silent atmosphere be taken over by two bickering little girls, black lines formed on the foreheads of all the World Sea Realm experts. It was clear that Isemeine and Zenavey didn't fear their retaliation at all because they had a total of three King level characters on their side.

However, what once was a tense situation was most definitely derailed by these two entitled little girls, it was to the point where Ailsa couldn't stop laughing. She rolled about in the Incubator without a hint of the modesty a woman of her stature should have. Seeing her act like this, Ryu couldn't help but smile lightly.

Seeing Ryu react this way, many thought that he was amused by Isemeine's words or maybe feeling cocky toward her praise. Not many understood that Ryu wasn't paying attention to them at all and was rather in his own world.

It was then that everyone seemed to realize that despite the coercion of several World Sea Realm experts, Ryu hadn't moved a single inch. In fact, as though he didn't need it anymore, he allowed his scales and horns to recede, leaving him the perfect image of a handsome young man, albeit shirtless and wearing torn pants.

King Adonis appeared in the skies well above Ryu, having lost his patience. He looked down like a lofty God on high, but that was when Ryu took a step into the skies, reaching the same height as King Adonis despite the several auras locked onto him.

His meaning was clear. Ryu didn't like anyone looking down on him. He had accepted it previously for the sake of seeing Elena, but now he felt no need to do so.

Seeing such actions, King Adonis' gaze narrowed. Now he was even more certain that Ryu had a backer. If Ryu was the disciple of some reclusive Sky God, what would they do?

"Your backer, call them forth." King Adonis said slowly.

Ryu remained silent for a long while. He didn't seem to respect King Adonis enough to rush himself into an answer. The World Sea Realm experts went on high alert, their senses constantly sweeping the surroundings. Those that were Martial Gods remained relaxed, all feeling that this was just an extra nice show to watch.

But, it was exactly then that something that caught even Ryu off guard happened.

"Daddyyyyy! Someone is bullying my husband!"

Ailsa appeared on Ryu's shoulder.

King Cultus nearly coughed up blood.
