Grand Ancestral Bloodlines

Selheira's gown fluttered as she slowly lowered her hand. As her veil danced in the wind, she truly looked like a fairy, her presence causing the waning light of day to look just that much brighter.

"I'm sorry, the Radiant Star Sect isn't accepting any visitors at this time."

Her voice was soothing and gentle. Despite the fact this was clearly an expulsion order, there was something about Selheira's temperament that made it almost impossible to get mad. It was as though it would be blasphemous to even dare to speak to her in such a way.

The Inheritor Disciple geniuses looked toward Selheira with a weary gaze. Xan wasn't weak. In fact, other than Fairy Mae, he was probably the strongest one amongst them all. And yet, with just a single palm, he had been sent flying to a distance they couldn't even see.

Wasn't the Radiant Star Sect supposed to be weak? How did they suddenly have an elder capable of raising them to the Second Heaven, an Inner Disciple capable of fighting against Inheritor Disciples, and a mysterious Inheritor Disciple that could defeat them with a single palm.

What the hell was going on here?

Selheira turned away from them and looked toward Ryu with a smile in her eyes. She looked him up and down before shaking her head.

"You're hungry, right? Come with me."

Ryu raised a brow. This woman always seemed to understand his state and knew exactly what to do about it. She didn't even mind the glances of the Inheritor Disciples to her back as she led Ryu away.

Fairy Mae's deathly cold expression wavered for a moment as her eyes narrowed into slits. Everyone else saw a gentle beauty, but she felt a great threat pressing down on her.

Selheira seemed to have felt this as well and took double the notice of Mae, however this action only made the latter feel an even more stifling pressure.

Selheira was well aware of her own unique physique. Most couldn't see anything but a gentle woman, and that was the case even for Ryu. But this Fairy Mae had actually felt something different, and that was very curious.

It was very rare, indeed, for such a thing to happen on the Second Heaven.

…

Selheira led Ryu to the depths of the Radiant Star Sect this time. It turned out that Old Wan wasn't so useless after all. While Ryu was out battling, the old man had taken it upon himself to gather a large amount of resources, of which, there were quite a number of Heaven Grade beast meat and even some Sovereign Grade.

Thanks to Selheira, these resources were worked together into a large meal that Ryu swallowed down with great gusto. With the speed he was eating, Old Wan really wanted to make fun of him, but Ryu's etiquette was simply too prim and proper. Despite the fact he was eating with such speed, one really couldn't work up the courage to say anything about it.

This time, the food didn't end so quickly. And yet, Ryu just kept eating and eating. It seemed that he wouldn't stop until there was truly nothing left.

Realizing that he really had the capacity to continue, Selheira stood with a graceful smile and began to cook more meat.

Old Wan could only watch speechlessly from the side. Although it hadn't exactly been difficult for him to gather up this meat, he had thought that it would last at least a few years, but what the hell was this, exactly? He seemed to have realized that he had underestimated Ryu's talent a bit too much. This was more than about just liking food, this had reached an inconceivable level.

Ryu truly didn't stop until all of Old Wan's food was gone.

His body radiated a wild, bestial aura that made it feel as though he had already assimilated every ounce of prestige the beast meat had once had. His bones crackled and popped, sounding as though thunder and the roars of dragons were rattling about inside of his body.

Selheira's gaze flickered, an odd feeling stirring up inside her. However, this feeling faded once Ryu's body had properly adjusted itself.

"Thank you," Ryu said lightly.

Selheira smiled but didn't say much to this. She didn't seem to think that it was a very big deal at all.

"Hey, hey. Where's my thanks?"

Ryu looked toward Old Wan. In truth, he didn't really like this old man considering what happened during their first interaction. But it was still true that without him, Ryu would have a hard time satiating his hunger.

Usually, Ryu had no choice but to rely on qi to sustain him, but for those with overbearing bloodlines, this wasn't the best approach to take and it could even weaken your Vital Qi. Eating top quality food was, without a doubt, the best method.

Although he didn't like the old man, who looked more like a 20 year old, he had to admit that he still needed him.

Still, Ryu was Ryu. When he "met" Old Wan's gaze, he only nodded faintly and turned to leave. He had important things to do.

Old Wan's lip twitched and Grand Elder Samson almost fell out of his chair in laughter.

"Little Ryu, come to me."

Just as Ryu was about to leave, Elder Aika's voice drifted over. As overbearing as she was, her voice directly boomed over the whole Sect and caused the mountain range to rumble.

Old Wan shook his head. "Completely unladylike."

Ryu's gaze flickered but he still changed directions and went toward the voice. His figure flashed, appearing kilometers away in the blink of an eye.

Soon, he had appeared in the deepest reaches of the Radiant Star Sect and not far from the location where he had initially met Old Wan.

Ryu found Aika in the depths of the forest and within a foggy region that contained a small lake could be found. Currently, she was in the process of putting her hair up in a tight bun.
