Chapter 1859 Insidious

1859 Insidious

A tirade of curses came from the enormous dragon, but Ryu just stood there as though he hadn't sensed anything at all. At first, Lu'card was confused as to why that was, and even thought that Ryu was looking down on him for a moment. But then he sensed it.

"AH! RYU TATSUYA! IF I DON'T—!"

Ryu chuckled. "Your enemies are here. You'd probably be better off turning some of that hatred toward them. That anger doesn't look good on you. How about you try being more aloof and arrogant like a real dragon. You're starting to look a lot like that clown that calls himself undefeated."

"YOU—!"

BOOM!

A claw descended from the side, appearing out of the void as though it had always been there. At that moment, a majestic creature that Ryu had simply never seen before walked out. It was like a jaguar with fur as dark as night and spots that had a hue of deep, dark blue.

Flames danced in its eyes as though it was a skeleton demon, and that picture was only further completed when one noticed the long spine stretching down its back and forming a blade at the end of its tail. It looked like its neural network had been pulled out of its body, and it gave it a particularly powerful look.

It didn't even seem to notice Ryu at all; all it saw was Lu'card. It could smell the path to evolution on him. The blood of a dragon was so exceptionally powerful that it could only be an allure and nothing else.

The jaguar beast didn't even follow any paths of space or the like, but this was just what the beasts of this world were like. They would take any path of evolution available to them, even if it went against the entire path that they had built until now.

Lu'card spat up a mouthful of blood, but instantly, his fury turned from Ryu to the jaguar Sovereign. Unfortunately, that only lasted for so long when the void suddenly rumbled.

At that moment, countless eyes appeared in the skies, fanning out like a delicately embroidered ornament. Soon, however, it became clear that these eyes were actually just the patterns on a peacock's flaring tail.

Each one was as red as blood and outlined by a black border so sharp that even before the peacock appeared, its tail had first.

Lu'card's scales practically peeled off his body, but it was already too late as a crimson beam descended from the tail, forming toward from the fusion of its multiple facets and tearing through space as though it was nothing but a thin plane of paper.

Lu'card's wing was torn through and blood splattered.

Ryu grimaced. "That's got to hurt."

As Ryu spoke, he suddenly took a step back and dodged out of a cyclone of twisting space.

"Lu'card, we're partners. You can't kill me just like that. How would you sleep with yourself at night?"

Lu'card's eyes bulged, but he couldn't even orient himself before yet another beast descended.

This one was different from the peacock, but its entrance was strikingly similar. Before its true body was seen, one could only see a single silver horn piercing toward the skies. It carried such a sharp metallic energy that the ground rumbled and the skies were shredded to pieces. Clouds became like razor blades, splicing everything apart and leaving the world in ribbons.

Then its foot appeared.

The mighty weight of a rhino beast descended and the earth collapsed. A great gravity pressed down on Lu'card and it felt like all his bones had been shattered all at once.

One beast after another appeared. None had a powerful lineage, and they all seemed to descend from the most ordinary of beasts. But just by virtue of having reached the Sovereign Realm, their hearts toward the Martial Dao were incomparable, and their strength was to be expected.

While there might be weak experts among the other races, in the beast race, so long as you made it to the Lord Realm, you could easily find a place for yourself even in the Ninth Heaven of the True Martial World.

And now, Lu'card was surrounded by a half dozen of them.

Yet, rather than showing fear, he was only growing more and more infuriated. However, this rage wasn't aimed toward Ryu anymore at all.

"YOU INFERIOR VERMIN!"

He was absolutely enraged. These insignificant, middling beasts actually dared to trample on the dignity of the Dragon Race.

At that moment, every one of Lu'card's scales lit up and seemed to gain a hidden world within them. In his fury, he didn't even realize that Ryu had suddenly appeared on his back at some unknown time.

"Alright, let's kill these vermin, partner."

Lu'card was so infuriated that he still didn't realize. However, when suddenly attacked, his vision seemed to grow clearer and he sensed space more profoundly than he ever had before.

He vaguely realized that Ryu had taken on the burden of computation for him. Not only this, but he had allowed him to see variables in space that could only be glanced at through time.

That sudden enlightenment also made him realize that Ryu was actually riding on his head, but before he could get infuriated, another beam of red came from a certain peacock.

BANG!

Lu'card tore out a claw toward it but was still sent flying backward.

"Be obedient and then we'll be able to beat them."

Ryu spoke and then took the initiative to try and form a soul bond with Lu'card.

"Fuck you!"

"Well, if you remain so stubborn, we're both going to die!"

"You insidious bastard! I can get out of this on my own!"

"Can you? You do realize that the moment the experts of this world know you've appeared, you'll be screwed, right?"

"Do you think you can make a dragon lower his head by threatening him?!"

Ryu shook his head and almost rolled his eyes. He wasn't a person who would harm Lu'card for no reason. But before he could explain, another attack came.

A horn tore into Lu'card's wings and a mighty stomp came from above, crushing his ribs.
