217 A Frightening Experience

Netik raised one of his eyebrows as he suddenly received a message from his father, he turned toward his friends and spoke, "It seems everyone from Ayindril had arrived and father suddenly send a message to me stating to escort all of you there."

Leo: "Strange I can only guess the surprise must be related to them I guess."

Zarina: "Well then why wait let us move towards their direction then."

Saidhal: "Yes love but where is Cezary?"

Zarina: "Well here he comes he just went to say hello to his friends."

A white hair male who had Zarina's facial looks arrived as he greeted others, "Greetings Aunties and Uncles. How have you all been?"

Leo send a warm smiled towards Cezary as he spoke, "My my you have grown so much, a mid level Celestial not bad not bad."

Neacht: "Well someone has been working rather diligently."

Milena: "As you say sister, Cezary really has received his parent's talents."

Saidhal looked at them as he spoke, "Well let us not keep them waiting, and come along son."

The group slowly made their way towards the guests from Ayindril, who have just arrived.

As they neared they saw the familiar visage of Pangu their brother's family, it has been so long since they met all of them specially Nuwa, who never visits any occasion such as this as such it was surprise to them, over the years any resentment they had on them had dwindled with the passage of time seeing them suffer like that, as such they are once again in talking terms with them. But what drew their attention was an additional member along with them.

"Greetings Uncle and Aunties, it has been a while", the group greeted the elders of Ayindril.

Maheswara smiled at them as he spoke, "it really has been a while, seeing you all together is a sight for sore eyes, it has been so long since I saw you all together in one place.", before his eyes fell on a white haired youth.

Seeing everyone's questioning glance Saidhal introduced him to Maheswara, "Cezary, come forward.", as he approached his father Saidhal spoke again, "Uncle he is my first born, Cezary recently he has become a Mid Level Celestial."

Cezary cupped his hands giving a small bow as he spoke, "This junior greets Seniors."

Veena spoke in a praising tone, "Not bad not bad, it seems like your child has inherited both of yours talent, but first born does that mean you have other children."

Zarina was the one who replied to her, "Yes Aunty, I have a daughter who is a Mid Level Mystic Immortal, but unfortunately she is doing a close door cultivation trying to advance in Level."

Celestia spoke in a praising tone, "Good, good you have been blessed with a very diligent and hardworking daughter and son it seems."

As the group greeted Antariskh and her sisters their attention was drawn towards Ryuu who was speaking with Mira.

Nuwa beckoned Ryuu by her side as she spoke, "This young man here is Ryuu, our disciple and Ryuu remember how I told you about our son Pangu's closest friends this ladies and gentlemen are them."

Ryuu cupped his hands as he gave a small bow to them as he spoke, "Greeting s Senior."

The group simply smiled at him, except Leo who frowned slightly, 'I do not see what the surprise is, many has taken ….', he knew it was polite but he expanded his Divine he knew it was rude buthe had to be sure, as he inspected Ryuu his jaw nearly dropped as his eyes widened he almost stumbled if he was not caught by Netik who was nearest to him as he frowned hard, "Brother what happened?"

Leo quickly composed himself as he spoke a few words which send the mind of others in disarray, "Diabolic Divine Dragon Overlord".

Pangu, Leo, Zarina, Saidhal, Neacht, Milena, Netik, Apolonia had met with each other while adventuring and had become close friends their friendship was unshakeable even transcending their bonds with their respective family to the point each of them would give their life for the other in a heartbeat and a smile on their face, but both Pangu and Apolonia had not only passed away, their souls have ceased to exist as such they will never reincarnate such was the tragedy that befell their small group.

Never in a million years had they dreamed about meeting another with same type of Divine body, it was as if he their brother in all but blood had returned back to them. Milena had her clasped over her mouth as her eyes glistened with tears, Saidhal and Zarina had their mouth open wide.

In a blink of an eye Neacht was in front of him grabbing him up startling him greatly as she inspected him like a farmer would inspect a cow in an animal market.

Seeing the uncomfortable look on Ryuu's face Antariskh decided to rescue him as she spoke to Neacht kindly, "Sister, he is not going anywhere, but for now please release him you are kind of making him uncomfortable."

Upon being release Ryuu did not waste any time as he ran and hid behind Antariskh, 'Who is this crazy woman?', was the thought that ran through his mind, meanwhile Shamiran and Sylvana had a hard time getting over Ryuu's antics.

Neacht turned towards Nuwa as she spoke rapidly with desperation in her voice, "Who? How? When?"

Nuwa gave a kind smile as she spoke, "We came across Ryuu when he was 5 years since then we are training him, and raising him."

Rishit coughed into his hands drawing attention towards himself as he spoke, "Well it seems that Ryuu has healed a lot since the last time I met him."

Netik frowned at that as he spoke, "What do you mean father?"

Rishit, "Well when I went to Ayindril to invite my brother and his family, I met him he was recovering from near death experience from fighting a group of strong Demonic Immortal Level Cultivators, he was missing his left arm, all though he seems to have been healed he had dropped from peak Void Immortal Level Cultivator to Mid Immortal level cultivator. Such a shame as such son I hope during his stay here you will make sure to help him regain his levels I hope."

Netik turned towards Ryuu as he gave a small kind smile as he spoke, "Sure I will have no problem helping young Ryuu."

But alas all thing should come to an end as piercing scream mixed with anger, anguish and intense hatred came from behind Antariskh and others as they turned around and immense killing intent hit Ryuu with such force he could not breath any longer he was paralyzed even his heart stopped, asa frightful Ryuu looked with wide eyes at a snarling visage of a person whose eyes burned with immense hate and fury as the person shouted out, "DIE YOU FILTHY DEGENERATE FAKE COPY", as she released the aura of her cultivation level as she made her move trying to wipe out Ryuu's existence in swift stroke.

Antariskh's face visage became cold and murderous as soon as felt the murderous intent falling on Ryuu she quickly enveloped Ryuu in her KI trying to shield him from any unwanted damage as she flung him towards Shamiran who seemed to have turned into smoke as she caught Ryuu disappearing into her sister's shadows along with Ryuu.

The person did not stop her attack as Antariskh intercepted it with a shield deflected it towards the sky, with grunt as Sylvana moved forward with her rapier drawn trying to skewer the attacker for trying to harm her baby brother.

Meanwhile Shamiran had taken Ryuu to a world of devoid of any color, except black and white, she inspected Ryuu and finding him not breathing she shook him, "Ryuu snap out of it, Ryuu!!!", 'SLAPPPP!!!!!!', a loud slap echoed around the area as she slapped Ryuu into his senses who looked back at her with fearful expression causing her heart to clench, "S-si-sister wh-who w-was t-t-that."

Shamiran snarled as she spoke, "A rabid dog that should have been put down a long time ago."

A few million miles away from the planet on which Antariskh had intercepted the attack on Ryuu, a family consisting of a couple of humanoid being and their 5 year old daughter were celebrating along with many others who were present at the moment.

"Congratulations, Agula and Aqilus, soon you will be parents.", an older looking man congratulated the couple who blushed as Agula lovingly caressed her swollen belly, suddenly their attention was brought by their 5 year old daughter, "Mama, Papa what is that glowing thing on the sky.", who pointed towards something at the sky which was glowing brighter than the sun itself and it seemed to be growing bigger and brighter every minute, before anyone could say anything the bright light hit the planet exploding it turning it into space dust as well as extinguishing all those billion and trillions of life present on it in a blink of an eye.
