Chapter 505 - The long awaited meeting (Part-4)

Ryuu sat inside his room with his eyes closed, while waiting for a certain device to connect to Ayindril, the device in question was given to him by his teachers so that he could contact them and speak with them face to face.

And soon enough the device managed to work as Ryuu came face to face with his teachers as well as his elder sisters.

While Ryuu was thinking of means to approach the subject, Antariksh spoke voicing out the concern of everyone present, "Ryuu before you begin can you tell me how you managed to detect us."

Ryuu looked at them without a hint of emotion in his face as he spoke, "When second mistress permitted me to take some talismans from her stock before coming here, I took one that informs me in case someone was eavesdropping on me, and color me surprised when I learned that you were all eavesdropping on me."

"I was stunned to see such self control in you, as I had thought you would have killed them on spot."

Ryuu did not even acknowledge Sylvana's words as he looked towards his teachers as he spoke, "Why? Why did you make me face them? What purpose did it serve?"

Maheswara sighed as he spoke, "I wanted you to get a closure, even after you have gained so much karma you will still face the trial of heart during your tribulation, as such I wanted to make sure you get a closure lest you fall to the demons plaguing your heart."

Ryuu growled as he spoke, "I am completely fine, it is true after my mother's death I had to deal with that problem, even with medication when I got enlightened in the Dao of Asura it became worse but over the years I have managed to not only conquer it but I have no problems related to it."

Maheswara stared back as he spoke with a drawl, "Ho, have you become so arrogant that you believe that you have completely conquered your inner demons."

Ryuu could only growl at his words as he spoke, "At least you should have told me what you are trying to do, you thrust me in this without informing me, forced me to face those idiotic filths."

Maheswara sighed as he spoke, "As I said that to you before why I did it, you are intelligent enough to understand."

"I do not like it."

"Child sometimes some things we have to do is very despicable and to our liking as well, I understand our actions have hurt you greatly and it hurts us to act in such a manner."

As Ryuu gave his attention towards Veena, Celestia decided to chime in, "Now you understand so stop you silly tantrum and tell you what when you return sister Nuwa would make you your favorites so…", her words were stuck in her throat before she spoke with disbelief, "Did he cut the connection?"

Sylvana could not help but let loose a small chuckle as she spoke, "What did you expect mother that way you handled the situation was not nice, Ryuu was already incensed and father and first mother's reasoning might have simmered his anger but you managed to pour oil in flame by promising him reward if he let go off his anger, a very imm.a.t.u.r.e and thoughtless act."

Celestia meanwhile narrowed her eyes as she spoke, "It seems I have to reintroduce the fear he had of me in his heart again."

Nuwa sighed as she stood up, "Do so later on children tend to act rashly when they are angered, they tend to forget the right from wrong."

"But even so.", as Maheswara began he managed to draw everyone's attention towards him, "This might be his first tantrum that he has thrown."

Veena g.r.o.a.n.e.d as she spoke, "That is true, but I hope he does not make it habit, I had my fill with my children.", Hearing her words her sister-wives, as well as Maheswara, chuckled while their daughters simply pouted.

Nuwa sighed as she spoke, "Then we will take our leave."

Maheswara frowned as he spoke, "You are going to visit Ryuu."

Nuwa nodded as she spoke, "Yes, it is better to deal with the problem without letting it simmer for too long."

Veena looked at her as she spoke, "Should any of us accompany with you?"

Nuwa shook her head as she spoke, "No we will be fine, and if need arises we will ask for help."

Meanwhile, back in Kuvosie Ryuu had curled up into a ball, only after he had cut the connection in a fit of anger did he realize what he had done, he had cut off the most dangerous of all of his teachers the person he was afraid of most, and all he could do was hold his head and pray that his third mistress was in a good and forgiving mood.

Jack and Jacklin were very angry at the way Ryuu had dismissed their parents but upon careful thoughts, they both considered that he was rather tame, if they were in his shoes they would have attacked with reckless abandon.

Salazar sighed as he spoke, "Considering everything that rather went well, he at least did not outright become hostile nor did he show immense hatred and attacked us."

Fang had a small smile on his face as he spoke, "Of course no matter what, blood always rings true as such he would not do such a thing."

His words seemed to have brought a smile on the females present there only Jack to speak with a frown, "Father, I beg to differ from you."

His words drew everyone's attention as Yujie indicated for him to continue, "From what I can understand someone in his place should be boiling with hatred, yet at best he seemed to be annoyed as if he is indifferent about the whole situation."

Hearing his words Yujie spoke with a small sigh, "Young Jack is right, if I were in his place I would have been angry, I would shown immense hatred, I would have attacked the person in front of me, hell you have seen how he treated those members of the Ji clan and how that Celestial was taken care of, then why did he not do so with us?"

A silence descended amongst them as Beatrice spoke with a frown, "May be he did not wish to pick up a fight with an entire Empire, if he attacked us he would have brought the wrath of entire Xia empire on his head."

Yujie snorted at her reasoning as he spoke, "You have yet to learn much about him then, Ryuu is the type of person that would not cower just because someone strong is in front of him he is type who would continue to stand against that person even if it means his death, at least that is what I have able to perceive about though it might be because of the people who raised him."

Salazar felt a colossal headache as soon as Yujie mentioned the people who had raised him, "The senior that was with him he is strong isn't he?"

Yujie closed his eyes as he gave a tired nod, "Very much so, during our talk when he called me a liar and laughed at me I was incredibly angry and I wanted to slap him but that senior somehow perceived my anger and I felt if I made a single move I would die, yet the senior did nothing just stared at me."

Salazar sighed as he spoke, "Yes, he was treating Ryuu as if he was a prince, and the familiarity with which both him and Ryuu spoke about the figure in that painting it could mean that whosoever is his teacher he is beyond us, a being with unimaginable strength."

Yujie nodded as he spoke, "Yes, and what I also noticed was the familiarity that Ryuu was using when he spoke of them, it was as if he viewed them as family."

Salazar slumped in his seat as he spoke, "I cannot blame him, he grew up knowing Xiao Xiao as his mother, and then Xiao Xiao died when he was around ten years of age, he grew up amongst them and of course he would view them as family."

Yujie sighed as he continued, "So true though I wonder what is worse, being hated or indifference."

Meanwhile back in the Kuvosie Shangri-la branch, a certain person had appeared, a person that made Yamamoto bow down to his waist while he cupped his hand as he spoke, "Greetings Your Highness, it is an honor to be in your presence once again."

Nuwa gave a brief nod as she spoke, "It is good to see you again Yamamoto, and I hope Ryuu is not giving much trouble."

"None at all you grace, it is great working with Prince."

"Hmm, then please show us the way to him."

"Of course please follow me."

But, what took the cheery on top of the cake was how Yamamoto acted in front of her, completely subservient in a manner that she had only seen vassals of Kings and Emperors act in front of them.

'What is the background of the senior? Today is full of mystery, first the tension between Ryuu and the Vance clan, I do not know what happened because of the privacy array but I caught the glimpse of the last words, they were asking about the lost daughter of Vance clan Xiao Xiao and apparently boss knew her, I know I should not pry much but my gossip senses are tingling and it is hard to contain my curiosity.'

With a knock on Ryuu's door a figure stepped into the room as Ryuu turned to snarl at the person only to froze in shock as he spoke, "Teacher what are you doing here?"
