Chapter 473 - The Grand betrayal (part-3)

'It feels so warm, I feel so protected.', was the thought that passed through a certain red-haired cultivators mind, as he laid inside the cocoon that looked like blood-red lotus but its colour was rapidly fading.

Ryuu felt at peace, he felt content and safe as he lay inside the cocoon, 'I do not wish to live this place.'

As he laid there his head was slowly filled with various sword forms and styles and with passing second he gained a better and better understanding of each style as he felt countless faceless people practising sword, some exceptional, some good whereas others were so horrible that it made want to puke with disgust, and then all of a sudden he felt as if a burden had lifted off of his shoulder making him speak with disbelief, 'I broke through, I have managed to reach the God Tier in Grand Dao of Swords.'

Ryuu could not help but chuckle inwardly, "My misfortune turned into blessings but how?"

He shook his head as his eyes harden as he growled with anger, "I do not know how long I have been stuck here, but there are others who I hope are still my friends, I need to save them from that wench and every second count."

With that he grabbed hold of the cocoon wall with the intent to tear his way out, the cocoon wall had taken a dazzling shade of gold, but as soon as Ryuu touched it, the wall of the cocoon began to collapse, turning into pure dazzling golden KI that entered into Ryuu's body.

If anyone were on the outside they would have seen the Golden colour lotus shed its petals one by one, as Ryuu stepped out of it and soon the entire pile of petals turned into Golden energy which then disappeared into Ryuu.

Ryuu then looked around to see the previous desolate area had become sunny and refreshing as that of a Spring morning, he then looked down to inspect himself only to frown hard.

"I am completely n.a.k.e.d.", as the thought passed his mind he closed his eyes as he felt his space ring, his bracelets nearby which quickly flew to his hands as he did not waste any time to don a particular set of armour, the same set he had worn in the second floor when he had second handily slaughtered a giant octopus that had made him go berserk, but instead of the helmet, he wore a face mask.

Ryuu did not know what the miraculous thing was but he knew that it not only healed him completely, but it even managed to make him break through the bottleneck and ascend to the 13th level of Mystic Immortal Emperor Level, he did not harbour any doubt that this was not the only change and he might even look even more handsome as such his mask was quickly on his face.

'The last thing I want is some cheap distractions, and even if I can perfectly control my looks but I am too angry to bother with it.', and with that thought in mind, he disappeared from his place.

True-Spear was forced to watch as the love of her life had her clothes torn, never in his life had felt so much anger, hatred and helplessness, his own martial sister, the same sister who grew up by his side betrayed him, she had destroyed his dantian and then proceeded to cut off his arms and legs with his very own spear and now she was forcing him to watch Zywia suffer a fate worse than death, he wanted nothing more than to tear the smug satisfied smile on Frost Flames face but as he lay on the ground dying there was nothing that he could do.

Beads of tears fell off Zywia's eyes before she could react Frost Flames had betrayed them, the very same woman who she viewed as her sister, the same woman had harmed her martial brother to death, the same woman who had sealed off her cultivation, that same woman had now gifted her to the Preta Lok cultivators to satiate their l.u.s.t.

Her clothes had been torn exposing her body for the world to see, a body that only his parents had seen n.a.k.e.d when she was but a child, but now exposed to the entire world to see, even without her KI she tried to fight back but that earned her broken wrists and a blackened eye, now with horror in her eyes she watched as her would-be rapist's genital was about to penetrate her.

'Mom, dad, brother, please someone anyone, please save me.'

Her would-be rapist's torso disappeared from just about his chest in a shower of gore as did those who held her down, a large sheet fell on her covering her as a familiar voice came to her ears, "I am sorry for being so late."

She turned to see an armoured person looking down at her, her attention then fell on the eyes of his saviour, familiar mismatch eyes made her eyes widen as she spoke in a hoarse voice, "Brother Ryuu, you came."

"Who are you to stick your nose in our business? Cripple yourself and kowtow in front of us and maybe we would not destroy your soul."

A haughty voice came to Ryuu's ears as he looked at the person with a bored look as he drawled, "Pathetic mongrel since when have you become strong enough to speak that in front of I, now your place."

His words were like a declaration as a titanic pressure fell on every cultivator were from or either siding with the Preta realm was on their knees with the head firmly planted on the ground.

Ryuu looked around and his heart clenched to see his fellow cultivators tied down with the means of Arrays, but what made it worse at seeing the number almost half of them were dead as he could see their bodies piled up in a heap, and those that were captured looked badly injured.

An Array suddenly appeared underneath his feet, which he slammed on the ground sending shockwaves, shockwaves that promptly demolished the arrays freeing them from their captive state.

Zywia did not waste any moment as she dashed towards True-Spear cradling his head while crying out loud.

Ryuu looked at their direction as he winced, 'His condition is bad, even if the arms and legs can be attached, but the dantian is gone for good making him a cripple, not only that the poison used had harmed him greatly and he would die any second, only his will power is keeping him alive.

With the corner of his eye, he watched his friends gather around them, while Su-Min and Frozen Ocean tried to cover Zywia in a much better manner to protect her modesty.

"Brother Ryuu, please help me!", the heart-rending scream of Zywia made his heart clenched as he quickly moved to their side.

Ryuu kneeled by True-Spear's side as he grimaced seeing his wounds, 'I was right there is nothing I can do, except making his passing painless.'

A weak chuckle came from True-Spear's mouth as he spoke, "Brother Ryuu, I know I would not survive long enough, there is no need for you to feel sad, this few ~cough~.", he coughed out loud vomiting blood, but yet he continued to speak with his sheer willpower, "The few years of my life has been the greatest, meeting everyone it was great."

Tears fell off Zywia's eyes as she spoke, "Please keep quiet, brother Ryuu is here he will heal and we would be together like we dreamed off, you promised me, you promised."

True-Spear chuckled as he coughed blood once again as he spoke, "I am sorry my love, but it seems I would not be able to keep my promise to you, I am so sorry.", as he spoke tears flowed from his eyes.

Zywia looked towards Ryuu with a hysterical look on her face as she spoke, "Brother Ryuu please, I beg of you, I will do anything I will even be your slave, I…"

Zywia's tirade came to an end as Ryuu spoke with a frustrated sigh, "Zywia, True-Spear's dantian is completely gone, and that something that even my teachers cannot help with, without his dantian my treatment will be reduced to a hundredth, even painkillers would not work at all, I am sorry Zywia I cannot help, I am sorry.", as he spoke Ryuu felt his eyes become misty as his vision became hazy.Find authorized novels in , faster updates, better experience, Please click #%!d(string=11448539305377005)/the-grand-betrayal-(part-3)_%!d(string=51601915011714026) for visiting.

'Am I crying?', he felt his tears flow down his mask as he wiped them, 'This is the first time I cried since my mother's death.', he balled his fist as he cursed inwardly, 'Damn it, I swore that I would not fail again, but I…'

His musings were cut short as a voice came to his ears followed by insane killing intent and KI that belonged to someone of 10th level of Mystic immortal Level, "You trash how dare you to make me, Jethrar, the Corpse King to kneel, I will kill you force your corpse to serve eternally, while I shatter your soul."

Ryuu's anger reaches zenith as he spoke, "Brother I will go and out down some noise rabid dogs."

With a weak smile, True-Spear spoke, "Go get them the good brother of mine."

Ryuu returned him a smile from behind his mask as he spoke, "Do not worry, I will avenge you."

Ryuu stood up as he looked at Jethrar who had somehow managed to raise his head, as Ryuu spoke with a growl, "Prostrate."

As soon as those words came from his mouth the pressure on them increased by many folds as Ryuu continued to speak, "On my whim, you are still breathing and existing, but I am merciful as such trash I will allow you all to die fighting instead of being put down like a diseased rabid dog."

As he spoke Ryuu once again stomped on the ground as a gigantic array appeared that covered an area of a dozen kilometres, he then turned to look at his fellow cultivators as he spoke, "Good brothers and sisters sorry for the delay but please bear with me a little I will clean the trash from our sights."

With that a giant barrier appeared concealing Ryuu and his enemies, completely disappearing of others that were present.
