Chapter 1629 I Want to Go!
Lysander's large eyes narrowed.
"The Soul Reaper Taboo Sect is a scourge of the True Martial World. They're the-"
Ryu shook his head, wanting to tune most of this out. These sort of appeals to morality were exactly the kind he didn't give a damn about.
Back in Sacrum, Mental Realm Masters were apparently the worst scum of the earth, then there were Necromancers for having the audacity to use the dead as their puppets.
Had he ever cared back then? No, never. Even with it being his own Tatsuya Clan setting the rules he couldn't be bothered to give a damn.
If it wasn't for the fact his understanding of Necromancy was too shallow to be used in the True Martial World, he would be using it here as well, regardless of the thoughts of all of these people.
Sure, maybe the Soul Reaper Taboo Sect was "horrible". Maybe they committed mass genocide and maybe they ripped families apart or sacrificed babies.
In the end, it was a waste of his time to even consider those things. If Lysander thought that he would suddenly become up in arms because of his explanations, she was sorely mistaken.
Arguably speaking, what the Nine Powers had done was just as bad. Visit no(v)eLb(i)n.com for the best novel reading experience
Where was Lysander when the Martial Gods were massacring his family?
Taking a step back from even that, what about the artificial formations and cap they had placed on Daos? Did they know what kind of environment that bred? Did they know how many Clans like the Frost Clan had fallen for trying to bump up against the current status quo? Did they even care?
Who knows, maybe Lysander was just as enraged about these matters as well. To be fair to the Dragon, Ryu didn't really know him.
However, for Ryu personally, he didn't have the patience for such stuff. Unless everyone was perfectly good, you couldn't even start to have these conversations. And even then, one's definition of "perfectly good" varied wildly and might not even turn out to be so perfect in the end at all.
Lysander had already stopped speaking, seemingly sensing Ryu's indifference on the topic. But true to his nature as a Crystal Dragon, he didn't seem to be enraged by some things.
He had begun speaking on these things because he was personally passionate about them and didn't believe that Sects like the Soul Reaper Taboo Sect or their inheritances should exist.
However, this son-in-law of his was quite firm of a Dao Heart. His words weren't going to change his mind, and given his reaction, he shouldn't be the one who harmed this woman either. Logically speaking, that didn't make much sense anyway.
Although both of those women had already lost their Primordial Yins, who knew what other methods Old Wan might have?
As for discarding Hope's soul, Ryu didn't believe that Old Wan would do so, at least not yet. He would only do so when it benefited him the most, and that would be only after he could use it to deal with Ryu.
He understood that man's character very well, and he would make him pay for it.
Dearly.
Selheira, who was still on Ryu's back, looked toward his side profile. She could feel his anger, but she could also see how well he suddenly controlled it and used it as fuel...
A Fire Dragon wouldn't be able to do that.
If it was her mother, she likely would have already begun to rampage, going to wherever she had last seen this person.
But in Ryu, it smoldered and burned, simmering with an eerie darkness that could explode at any time.
Honestly, if Ryu knew her thoughts, he would feel like she was actually giving him too much credit. He wasn't all that good at controlling his temper at all.
However, what he could do was dream day and night of his fist driving through his target's chest.
"Please send me to the Ninth Heaven," Ryu suddenly said.
"Please?" Lysander was suddenly taken aback. He didn't expect Ryu to be the type to use words like that either. This boy seemed to surprise him more and more every moment.
Ryu didn't respond. He wanted to see his wife, and for his women, especially if it was Elena, his first wife and love, he was willing to do things he normally otherwise wouldn't.
"It's a bit troublesome..." Lysander muttered. "Not for you, I've heard that your master has caused quite a commotion. Your status won't be any less than those geniuses and they won't casually deal with you either.
"But... Selheira isn't ready to go. Crystal Dragons-"
"No! I want to go!" Selheira suddenly said.
Lysander sighed and shook his head. "Forget it, forget it. Fine, fine."
The two were suddenly swept up again and Lysander shot into the air. Ryu thought that there might be a formation, but Lysander just shot right into the skies, piercing through an invisible veil high above the clouds and suddenly pulling them into an endless darkness.
It seemed that he would see his wife very soon.
