Grand Ancestral Bloodlines

It was hard to tell how the world responded. The echoing of claps of the thunder was practically continuous.

However, it was very easy to tell how everyone else reacted.

First, they couldn't believe the audacity of a human to speak in this situation. But when they heard the name and saw that he was looking toward the Dream Wraiths, their eyes opened wide. In fact, even the Dream Wraiths, well known for their calm demeanors and unhurried spirits were in a state of shellshock.

It could be said that there wasn't a single soul that wasn't observing Ryu at this point. Even Wunikai was taking several glances, but she was focused on both Ryu and Selheira.

"This man... dared to have more than one woman? And his cultivation? Just a True Sky God? It felt like their worlds were flipping upside down."

After their shock, the Dream Wraiths all frowned.

"Which of them didn't know how obsessed Mae was with this man? Most Demons didn't even have last names, but Mae insisted on being called Young Mistress Tatsuya, it was inescapable. Every time they called her name they were reminded of the fact she had a husband."

"They had thought that this man might have six arms and three heads, but other than being handsome... he seemed completely ordinary in practically all other aspects."

"Because they were the Dream Wraiths, this was an especially poignant slap to the face. The Dream Wraith Clan could be considered one of the only places in existence where Ryu's looks would actually be considered to be ordinary."

"Who cared if he was handsome? How many handsome men did they have? They could drown even the legendary World Spirit in their spit with just one upchuck if they so wanted. Since when was handsomeness something they lacked in?"

Ryu observed their reactions with the same smile on his face. In fact, the angrier they felt, the happier he felt.

"Even so, he hadn't exposed himself like this for a petty reason."

"First, he needed to understand their thoughts. One way or another he needed to use their teleportation platform back and he wouldn't allow anything to stop him. So he needed to be prepared for whether they'd be hostile or not."

"Second, he didn't mind the pressure. Right now one of his top priorities was gathering as much Faith as possible for his Inner World. Having his name resound throughout the Three Planes wasn't a bad idea. The angrier they were, the more chances he would have at crushing them in the future."

"And third, he wanted to know exactly which of them overestimated themselves."

"Pining after this wife was a capital offense that marked you for death, and he had already taken note of several people."

"If their reactions were so fierce here, then while he was away, how much did they pester his wife? How many times had they tried to wiggle their ways into her heart?"

"Ryu might have matured, but he hadn't matured to that extent yet. His fists were already itching for blood."

"JIJIJIJIJI!"

A grating laughter roared out along with the sound of chattering bones.

"Nekroth, the strongest Bone Serpent junior that the Demon King Race had brought forward, couldn't help himself."

"A mighty Dragon traveling with ants and the mighty Dream Wraiths marrying their treasured pearl to a pile of dung. I've truly seen it all today, what a clown show."

Ryu didn't even look over, as though he was still waiting for an answer. But beneath Nekroth's jeering, the disappointment and distaste of the Dream Wraiths only seemed to grow.

"Xylorath, a Dream Wraith genius, couldn't hold back anymore and snapped."

"It's not your place to ask such a question." He bore holes into Ryu as though he wanted to eat him alive.

Ryu pursed his lips and nodded as though he had just concluded something interesting. His gaze shifted from Xylorath to the Dao Lord Wraiths that had followed them in.

"Don't expect him to come out alive."

Ryu raised a finger and pointed at Xylorath, then his finger pointed elsewhere.

"Him," he pointed at Nekroth, "him, him, him, her, him.

"Don't expect any of them to return. I will personally kill them all."

Ryu's smile faded and he looked down on the world indifferently. His sky blue robes danced in the wind along with his sparkling white hair.

"There was a suffocating pressure in the air at the moment, one that made them feel as though the real Dragon wasn't Lu'card at all, but rather the human standing before them right this moment."

"The mountains began to rumble before anyone could respond. It seemed that the event was perfectly primed."

"Ryu took a step forward, but Selheira moved with him."

"Ryu frowned. Selheira was a bit weak for this matter, but quite frankly, the same could be said for him. He didn't really want to reject her, so in the end he thought it might be fine."

"With a swirl of his eyes, Elise and the others vanished."

"Countless hostile gazes landed on Ryu's body, but he was completely unbothered. The calm in his eyes was almost frightening. In that moment, the world that had seemed to revolve around the Dragon had come to revolve around him instead..."

"And it felt natural."

"The geniuses in the surroundings seemed to realize that it wasn't so easy to dismiss Ryu after all. If for no other reason, the arrogance of pointing out those on his kill list ahead of time was something even they had a hard time fathoming."

"It was clear in that instant that, at the very least, Ryu had the heart of a hero."

"And when he stepped into the air, walking on it as though it was flat land, their pupils constricted one after another."

"Standing there, high above even the Dao Sovereigns present, he had done something that only the Dao Gods of their Clans were capable of."

"He didn't give them a single other glance as he vanished, entering the portal before anyone else."
