Chapter 2003 Interesting

A silence fell over the underground region.

Sarriel's temper had been well restrained in these years. She had learned to always keep her calm, a necessity when she was facing off against the odds. Hiding her emotions, controlling them, and keeping them under wraps was what she did best.

As she grew stronger, and her Dao Heart only followed along, the end result was that her control only became better.

But right now, her gaze couldn't help but flash with fury. The worst part was that Ryu was far too prideful to lie about anything, but he was also far too prideful to feel the need to spread his conquests to the world either.

This meant two things.

First, she had indeed given her first kiss to Ryu. Although it wasn't technically her, and was instead an alternate persona resulting from her special cultivation method, the ultimate truth was that she had. She also liked to pretend that that person wasn't her... but the reality was that it was.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

That version of her was a shy, naive girl who very easily acted on the whims of her feelings. The fact she had kissed Ryu meant that that was what she had wanted to do. Or more accurately, at least a part of her, a sliver of her personality, wanted to.

And secondly... that meant that Ryu had a purpose for saying those words.

He was using her. Using her first kiss as a method of attacking the men around her, their psyches, and ultimately their Dao Hearts.

That made one thing very clear...

He didn't give a damn about her at all.

She had been around Ryu for long enough to know how he treated his women. She had observed what he had done for Elena. Despite the trouble she brought him, and how her naivete only made things more difficult on him, she didn't blame her in the slightest during that final battle with the Martial Gods in Sacrum.

It would all be dependent on how valuable he was to her.

Once he killed her little lovers and defeated her again, what choice would she have?

Leonel stood to his feet, looking toward where the God Grade World was.

Now, all he had to do was find a method of entering that world...

That world was far too important. There were several High Gods in that region, and there was no doubt that the Peak Dao Gods invested a lot into making sure that it was well protected.

It was safe to say that it would be much more difficult now. And unfortunately, his first plan had fallen through.

He originally wanted to take advantage of the chaos of killing the Middle Dao God of the Fey, distract them with a Peak Dao God Human Emperor, and then find the opportunity he needed to slip in. But now, that was obviously impossible. The Fey had reacted much more calmly than he expected, and now they had apparently brought backup to make this matter even more difficult. Honestly speaking, the more he learned about this situation, the more suicidal it seemed.

But this Holy World was too important. Not only was it the location of the third and final False Shrine he would need to destroy, but it also held the Spacetime fusion that he would need to absorb in order to finally complete his Body Realm Cultivation method.

Ryu sat in silence, his gaze flickering as he thought through several possibilities.

But then his eyes suddenly flashed with a bright light.

'Those statues... interesting... interesting...

Ryu called out Mae, and she sat in his lap as he finished the last of his thoughts. Finally, he opened his mouth to speak.
