Grand Ancestral Bloodlines

Chapter 1953  Crotch

Maybe in the past he would have been worried about some super expert seeing through his disguise, but right now he didn\'t even believe that a normal Dao God would be able to, and a much stronger one would only be able to do so if they knew what they were looking for. And the odds of that, especially now that Ryu was fairly confident in hiding from the Fate and Karma searches of others, was next to nil.

Soon, though, Ryu\'s journey came to an end.

He walked through a forest of black flames that gave off a chilling cold. The smell of death hung in the air and goosebumps flared across his skin.

This wasn\'t a fear response, but rather a direct response to the cold, something Ryu found interesting. However, he wasn\'t surprised. n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

With his current body composition, there hardly existed any weather elements that could harm him. The only explanation, then, was that this was beyond the elements.

The smell of death wasn\'t just a simile or analogy, it was truly death.

This was beyond cold, it was so chilling because it reminded the body of the feeling of death, and Ryu\'s own had an instinctive reaction to avoid it.

Ryu could shut off this bodily response of his, especially with his current control over his own. But he didn\'t do so. There was no need to stand out to such an extent.

Soon enough it became obvious why he was having such thoughts.

He walked to a cliff\'s edge that looked down on a valley below. In the center of it all, the portal to a Holy World lay. However, as one might imagine, there were Fiends present... as well as Fey, and surprisingly to all but Ryu, humans.

This location was actually quite close to the borders of the rainbow wall, and what the Fiends probably didn\'t want others to know was that their False Shrine was also located here.

However, by the luck of the draw… or so it seemed, this was a Holy World that they might as well have had complete control over themselves.

Ryu, though, wasn\'t even so sure anymore.

This world was of the Lord Grade and it had an exceptionally strong Dark Affinity. This sort of Yin-based world of a rare affinity was exactly the kind of thing that the Moon Clan of the Real Plane should be all over.

It had to be remembered that the Moon and Sun Clans of the Fey didn\'t represent fire and ice. Those names had much deeper meanings. In fact, in some languages, it would translate directly to Yin and Yang Clans.

There was a reason that the first Holy World Ryu went to, the one of Ice and Darkness, was under the control of a Moon Clan subordinate. If not for the fact it was such a weak True Grade world, there might have been some real Dark Qi user present.

There was something else that was interesting to Ryu, though… something that he had begun to piece together as he moved through this world with these frankly quite "new" eyes of his.

And that was that the Fey and the Fiends had much more in common than the fact their Race Titles both started with the letter "F". In fact, they were practically perfect mirror images of one another.

The Fey were the Ancestors of the Spirituals and it could be said that they were inborn with high elemental affinity as a result. However, unlike Spirituals, they had exceptionally strong bodies as well and their elemental affinities could even be somewhat secondary depending on the circumstances.

What was interesting was that the Fiends were the same. They were creatures with exceptionally strong bodies with likewise incredibly high elemental affinity.

Ryu also found it interesting that their super geniuses actually shared the same last name. It was coincidental to the point of almost being amusing.

Young Master Moon of the Fey Race\'s Moon Clan.

Aria Moon of the Fiend Race\'s Earth and Water Clans…

It was amusing to be sure. So much so that when Ryu first learned about it, he hadn\'t even thought much of it.

That was because from what he could tell, although they were both called Moon, the translations were different, one meaning the dark side of the Moon and the other meaning the brightness of the Moon.

However, wouldn\'t it be more amusing if they were connected precisely because of that reason?

If the people of this world were fooled by such a thing, Ryu would feel like he had been far too kind with his earlier words to Star River.

All of that said… this was still just surface level analysis.

Ryu suddenly leapt down from the cliff\'s edge, falling down in a rapid howl of wind.

His presence had already been noticed by many, but his actions made it so that those that didn\'t notice him before couldn\'t help but look over.

This was a Lord Grade Holy World, so the security was exceptionally tight. It could be said that they knew Ryu had arrived the moment he stepped foot into this forest of death, let alone now.

However, Ryu seemed to be perfectly fine with this.

BOOM!

He landed with a heavy thud and the ground quaked. Flames of death and darkness danced around him and he took almost careless steps forward.

Soon, his path was blocked by a Lord Dark Fiend.

"Who are you?"

"You don\'t need to know who I am," Ryu said almost indifferently. "Just know that I\'m here to force Aria beneath my crotch. Is that enough of an introduction for you?"

A flare of rage spiked in the Lord Dark Fiend\'s eyes before he burst into a howling laughter that shook the valley.

A Transcended Fiend wanted to bed their young miss?

Almost 30 years ago now, Aria Moon was already half a step into the Lord Realm, just teetering outside of it.

By now… she had obviously taken that step.
