Grand Ancestral Bloodlines Chapter 1980

[ … words ]

“No. I can do all of us at the same time. Just be sure to carry me some more. This might be more comfortable than I thought.”

Hope had to refrain from rolling her eyes, but she also sighed a breath of relief.

That was right. Ryu might be stone-hearted at times, but he was also a person who repaid his debts.

IIe bowed to those who showed him respect, guided those that helped him, and if his pride was the matter on the line, he wouldn’t mind going particularly far.

The benefits the Rebirthing Cultus Sect had gained in the last quarter-century were too mind-numbing to describe. And it could be said that other than the value of Ryu himself, this was another reason why Star River had appeared.

Because of Ryu’s breakthrough and his enlightenment on the Dao, there were countless geniuses of the Sect that had benefited greatly.

Someone who didn’t know Ryu might think that this was just a coincidence. But this was another aspect of Ryu proving a point.

Not only could he take the resources of the Sect he wanted just by becoming their Throne, he could even give them far more benefits than he took in return.

He was the head of the Tatsuya household and he wouldn’t allow anyone who wasn’t his very own father to try to usurp that position.

And now, he would do it again.

Starlight suddenly began to descend from the skies and Ryu’s gaze flashed as he began to calculate. Synapses fired in his mind faster and faster and he found that his mental capacity had broken into a completely new tier.

He was really fascinated by what was happening, but he forcefully suppressed his curiosity.

“Time”

Hope’s heart skipped a beat. It had taken Ryu several minutes before, and that was just the two of them in small quarters. This calculation was orders of magnitude more difficult.

Could he just be trying to buy them some time by teleporting just anyway?

But they were only a half-day’s flight from the rainbow wall. If they ended up even further behind, they might not get such a chance again.

“Trust your husband, little wife!

The words dispelled the last bit of Hope’s confusion and she chose to put her fate in Ryu’s hands once again. She had already done it before, so what was the harm in doing it again?

After all, their lives were tied as one. For all intents and purposes… she might as well be his Life Partner. Though, it was a one-sided partnership in this regard.

Ailsa and Ryu had their fate intertwined and mutually reliant. By comparison, Hope’s fate was clearer as the child to Ryu’s parent fate. It was a different dynamic.

But from her perspective, it brought warmth nonetheless.

The world around them flashed and Star River and the Human Emperor felt a strong tug. Realizing it. was Hope’s energy, they chose not to resist it and the world twisted around them.

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!

Several Fiend Gods fell from the skies, their bodies causing the landscape to overturn and nearly collapse through the nothingness of time and space.

However, they were still too late.

Hope and the others fell from the skies before stabilizing themselves. When they looked around, their eyes couldn’t help but widen.

The rainbow wall. It was actually right there.

With eagerness, they rushed forward, crossing over and finally exhaling a breath of relief.

The suffocation of the Chaos Plane left them and their bodies finally felt comforted again.

On the Chaos Plane, it felt like they were fighting with a hand tied behind their back. If it wasn’t for how desperate they were, and how Ryu had been able to hand over several Embryonic Qi droplets to Hope before he passed out, they would have been finished.

They looked over to Hope with thankful glances, but they were inwardly confused about how she had only just managed to do this. Could it be that she needed all that time to set up her success?

However, when they saw the state of Ryu in her arms, they realized that it must have been him again…

Ryu looked as though he had been practically mummified. They were certain that his state had been somewhat stabilizing before. For it to get so much worse could only mean that he had taken action. They really couldn’t understand it. Just how could a Transcended be able to affect the battle of Gods so profoundly?

However, what shocked them even more was that Ryu seemed to react even faster this time. His mummified body pulsed with life and energy as it slowly regained its vitality.

Primordial Chaos Qi thrummed through his body. Black lightning, raging dark flames, blackened green winds…

It didn’t matter what type it was, his body greedily swallowed it all and quickly replenished itself. His eyes flashed open and there was a sharpness to them already that surpassed what should have been possible for a man drained of his energy.

Of course, Ryu wasn’t already back to 100%, he had never been back to 100% in the first place. But he was back to 20% after falling to nearly zero.

He didn’t know just yet why his Dao Heart could feed off of his negative emotions. But… he had plenty to give it, that was for sure.

‘I think I can find a way to help master now!

Of course, the master Ryu was referring to was his first master and the man with a special place in

his heart.

The Zu Clan Ancestors had ended up in the same state as Ailsa, caught in a trap of time. Although their souls were able to survive quite a long time, there would be a limit even to this, and they had

nearly reached it.

All of them were dormant…

He was hoping that he would be able to change all of that. And-

Ryu’s thoughts were cut off as he looked up into the skies. He subtly flicked a droplet of Embryonic Qi to Star River and the Human Emperor as he stood from Hope’s arms.

Unfortunately, they had enemies on both sides of the wall.
