Grand Ancestral Bloodlines

Chapter 1855 Ridiculous Task

Now, however, they were all connected in one place, and their shoddy formations were in one part easy to manipulate, and in another part strong enough to actually impact them.

The Sovereign, Aerendil, would be able to escape in just a few hours, but by that point, Ryu would be long gone.

Of course, that was only one part of the problem.

Ryu knew that without his wife, truly getting out of this situation wasn\'t an option. However, he had his own pride, and he had already put up a pathetic display before his wife once already, he couldn\'t possibly allow himself to do it again.

So, he decided that he would use her prestige in one part, but the actual escaping portion would be handled by him. At least this way, his Dao Heart remained intact, as did his pride.

Ryu wasn\'t disappointed that Ailsa didn\'t tell her disciple who he was.

For one, he didn\'t really want her to. Such a thing would directly harm her power. Such a powerful woman having such a weak husband was bound to crack her Faith.

Second, he didn\'t really want to rely on her so much. He was already a bit annoyed that he had to do this much.

At the same time… this would allow him more flexibility to do certain things. In fact, it could even be said that Rinushka\'s foolishness was a helping hand to him rather than a detriment.

It was unlikely that he would be pursued because Ailsa\'s will had already been made known. But at the same time, he wouldn\'t be seen as one of Ailsa\'s people either, which would minimize the problems she would have to face while increasing the pressure on his shoulders.

With a step, he appeared in the Luminara Clan estate once again. Things continued to move as though nothing at all had happened, and why wouldn\'t they? Most of the Clan had no right to know what was happening here.

When Ryu stepped outside, he took a breath of the cold air. He felt the chill filling his body.

BANG!

At that moment, a furious figure appeared by Ryu\'s side. The oppressive aura of a Dao Lord landed, but Ryu didn\'t seem to notice.

He didn\'t like repeating himself, and he didn\'t like explaining himself. At least for now, these were aspects of his personality he had no intention of changing. So since he told this woman that she would only have one chance, she would only have one—

A hand grabbed Ryu\'s shoulder and he found himself speeding through the air.

Ryu frowned and looked at the hand on his shoulder. The woman was carrying him along while rushing away at her fastest speed. She was using the bare minimum amount of qi to protect him.

This was probably her way of getting back at him somewhat, but Ryu didn\'t bother with it.

By seniority, she was his junior as well. Calling him Martial Uncle wouldn\'t be inappropriate at all. Since she knew when to do the right things, even though she was being needlessly excessive right now, he didn\'t mind letting it slide. At the very least, his current self didn\'t mind it so much.

Even so, he couldn\'t help but look back toward the Luminara Clan and shake his head. Because of this woman, he wouldn\'t get to rob them like he had been planning.

Rinushka looked back, but found that Ryu had already closed his eyes in silent meditation. The wind wasn\'t even affecting him in the slightest…

And why would it? He had the Northern Heavenly Wind. If she was trying to use wind pressure to harm him, she would need a different path.

She grit her teeth, but in the end, she shook her head. She would just do what her master asked and then wash her hands clean of the result.

BANG!

Hours later, Ryu found himself hurtling through the air, but he calmly came to a stop as though he hadn\'t just been thrown by a Dao Lord.

Rinushka was taken aback again, but this time, she managed to rein in her temper with far greater ease.

Ryu looked at her indifferently, clearly waiting for her to explain why she had brought him here. If he was the one to ask first, then wouldn\'t that be a loss of face?

He had honestly been expecting to be thrown into another Holy World, but there certainly wasn\'t one around here.

He found this odd.

For one, he knew for certain that whatever Rinushka was doing here was involved with what Ailsa would have ordered her to do.

His wife should know how much he benefited from the first Holy World, so he was somewhat hoping that she would pull some strings and allow him to enter some others that were suited to him.

But instead, he was brought here.

It had to be remembered that Ailsa wasn\'t just his Life Partner, but she was also his Cultus Faerie. And, he also didn\'t believe that Rinushka would dare to do anything outside of Ailsa\'s expectations.

That could only mean that there was something else that Ailsa wanted Ryu to do instead.

Rinushka found herself getting pissed off when Ryu just stood there, waiting for her to say something. Didn\'t he know that she could kill him with a single finger?

She had gotten used to being aloof in these last several thousand years. It could be said that she had experienced more anger today than she had in the last hundred.

This Ryu Tatsuya was really too—

Rinushka\'s heart shook. \'Tatsuya? Isn\'t that master\'s last name? Is it a coincidence? Or is this master\'s descendent…?\'

If the latter was true, that explained a lot of things, but that only made her more annoyed. However, she soon calmed.

If it was just because Ryu was her descendent, then there was definitely a limit to how much advantage she could take of them.

"… This region is known as the Beast Domain," Rinushka said coldly after calming her rage. "It\'s a wildland location in the far right wing of the Real Plane, and it is also quite close to the rainbow barrier.

"Master said you have ten years to organize this region and turn it from a wildland to a—"

Rinushka paused, suddenly only now realizing how ridiculous this task was. Even a Dao God couldn\'t accomplish something like this.

What was going on?
