Grand Ancestral Bloodlines-Novel

Chapter 1557 Believe

Aika felt her heart drop to her stomach. Her last hope seemed to have flown out the window.

When she first met Ryu, his age was unacceptable even by First Heaven standards, speaking of his cultivation. He had been lagging behind his peers by quite a large margin at that. If not for his combat prowess, he wouldn't have even had the right to enter the Sect at all, and the Radiant Star Sect of back then, at least on the surface, wasn't even top two in terms of organizations that controlled the First Heaven.

Since then, in just a few years, he's had growth that could only be said to be explosive, but it wasn't enough, it wasn't nearly enough. He simply didn't understand what it meant to be an absolute genius of the Eighth Heaven, at least that was what Aika thought.

Ryu was simply still too old. If he was still in his teens, if he had come to the True Martial World sooner, everything would have been alright, she could have accepted this risk.

But he hadn't. He was already over 25 and by that age, the best geniuses of the Eighth Heaven had already entered the True Sky God Realm and had yet to even lose their momentum.

What Aika didn't know was that Ryu had already seen one of these absolute geniuses. A young man of not even 40 years old who had already stepped beyond the True Sky God Realm and was a Perfect Sky God.

He knew exactly what he was getting himself into.

BOOM.

A flying disk snapped into place high in the skies as though it had been launched and stopped by a rubber band. Its body exuded powerful patterns reminiscent of dark stars and on its back.

The Radiant Star Sect had appeared.

Lord Black Worm looked into the skies, a hint of an enraged expression on his face. Just this subtle rage alone caused the skies to twist and crack.

Aika, who was already in a bad mood, flared up and the flying disk was forced to retreat several hundred miles.

"This is the Radiant Star Sect, this isn't a place where you can come and flaunt your rage. Shut the fuck up and keep your shit to yourself or I'll pull your intestines out through your asshole."

Aika's vulgar language echoed across the skies, her own rage quite clear and potent. novelenglish.net . Fɪre.net

Lord Black Worm coughed up a mouthful of blood, barely managing to protect Starlight to his back. His gaze flashed with an interesting light, but in the end, he listened to Aika and fell into silence.

He could feel that something was off about Aika as well. Could it be that this wasn't a planned occurrence of the Radiant Star Sect?

He had somewhat learned about Ryu from Starlight, and he had a small understanding of his character. Most people probably thought it was nonsense that Ryu rejected the inheritance of a Dao Sovereign, but Starlight, and now Black Worm, both knew that this was undeniably true.

After Ryu defeated Starlight, there was no one else standing between himself and the inheritance. At that moment, Sovereign Chaotic Space wouldn't be able to stop Ryu even if he wanted to. There was only so much he could bend the rules before it came back to bite him.

The Heavenly Path wasn't a place even a Sovereign could do as they pleased. Plus, Starlight was the only one that hadn't had his memories of that situation altered, because he was the one doing the altering in the first place. So how could he not remember it clearly?

"Starlight, that boy is arrogant enough to do this on his own, right?"

"Yes." Starlight replied without hesitation.

A crooked, bloody grin spread across Black Worm's face. This was much more interesting than he thought. Then, he noticed something that made his grin even wider.

As Ryu's form solidified, a small Throne to his behind appeared, being suppressed by all aspects of the world.

He was a Throne already? Black Worm would have lifted his head up to the skies and roared out in laughter if not for the fact he was certain that Aika might ignore all pretenses and directly kill him if he did such a thing.

Soon after the Radiant Star Sect, Lord Crown Fire of the Raging Inferno Sect appeared. With him, there was a beautiful young woman wearing a dress of emerald. Everyone recognized this young woman as his daughter and the very woman that Jojo had rather some hate for.

Next, the Azure Lightning Sect appeared, led by Lord Striking Azure. Behind him, Fairy Azure stood, looking up at Ryu with sparkling eyes. To her side, Litaor stood as well, now having the status deserving of standing here due to the improvement of his Dao. Though, the youthful man had no idea that he had Ryu to thank for that.

Then came the Stalwart Sun Sect and Lord Sunblaze. Behind him, Reykian followed along with another young man. This young man was clad in armor of silver and gold, with a head of hair colored the same. His brows were rather literally shaped like a spear blade, not metaphorically, or somewhat-like, but well and truly. They matched well with the spear-shaped earring that hung from his left ear.

This youthful man exuded the aura of the Transcendent Sky God Realm, much like Lord Crown Fires daughter. And yet, one would tell with a single glance that he could kill her with a single finger.

All of the behemoths of Seventh Heaven gathered together, all of them looking toward the youthful man they had only just gotten to know. The Faith of the Seventh Heaven seemed to revolve around him in a swirl of absolute madness.

One among them, however, could not control her tears at all.

Selheira sobbed. She experienced that she had been too stubborn, too obstinate. She was just a woman, wasn't she? Should she give way to her man? That was what her mother had always said, but she hated that family, hated that Clan, hated this blood running through her veins.

A hand slightly touched her back, and Selheira looked down with teary eyes to find a rare smile on Eska's face.

"You should believe in him a little bit more."
