Grand Ancestral Bloodlines

Chapter 1904  Reversal

A crimson steed stepped out from the magic circle. It stomped the ground and neighed, chains rattling across its body.

It could only be said that Nemesis was truly a beautiful beast, and even as a mere projection, the arrogance in his eyes was palpable.

The rattling of the chains echoed so loudly that space formed clouds of cracks around the steed.

His crimson mane flowed wildly in the wind, and the moment Silent Quibus landed on his back, he raised his hooves into the air, and the sound of galloping war horses filled the skies.

BOOM!

Nemesis' front hooves slammed onto the ground, shattering the earth for miles before he erupted forward.

Silent Quibus' expression was a bit ugly because he didn't command Nemesis to do this, but it didn't matter so long as he ran Ryu down.

Ryu couldn't remember the last time he was so infuriated. He had experienced many things in these last few months and had been forced to undergo a lot of self-reflection as a result. He simply hadn't had the time to care or consider the opinions of others. Even when he was helping out his wife and stopping the Ruin Master Guild, he was almost going through the motions.

His mind was always focused on other things, and it was hard for him to feel emotions with the same fervor that he usually did.

But right now… right now he was truly infuriated.

Nemesis was his brother and probably the beast companion that Ryu had the deepest feeling for.

When he first met Nemesis, he was being tortured out of the Loom Clan for being disobedient. He was difficult and unruly to deal with, and despite the trouble it put him in, he was unwilling to bow his head.

His personality and that of Ryu's were practically identical.

In truth, Little Rock was very similar. However, what Little Rock lacked was facing the same sort of hardship that Nemesis had.

Seeing the steed he had reared and raised, the very same arrogant war horse that refused to lower his head no matter the situation, being forced to be the riding horse of this person…

Ryu's mind went completely blank. His killing intent formed a tangible net over the surroundings, his fury manifesting in a spiraling cyclone of black flames that pierced the skies.

BANG! BANG! BANG!

Ryu vanished, his great swordstaffs roaring with light as his [Heavenly Dao Tree] appeared at his back.

He was being attacked from all sides, but it felt like not even one of them could even begin to approach him.

"[Fate Reversal]." "[Fate Reversal]." "[Fate Reversal]." "[Fate Reversal]."

Ryu's voice echoed like the bleak call of the Devil.

The hooves of Nemesis appeared above him, slamming down with a great strength that seemed capable of collapsing the stars themselves. At the same instant, a whip of bone had appeared in Silent Quibus' hands and was lashing out toward him.

But in that very instant, Silent Quibus roared out in pain, all the bones in his body shattered at once.

Subconsciously, Silent Quibus wanted to use one of the life-steal abilities of Necromancers. The most skilled Necromancers were all able to transfer damage from themselves to their corpse puppets, so he was naturally capable. n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

Unfortunately for him, Ryu just cast [Fate Reversal] again, directly canceling his ability.

Ryu's chest suddenly exploded as Nemesis' hooves collided with him, but if one looked into his eyes, it would seem as though he hadn't even been injured at all, like he couldn't feel his heart exploding and his rib cage shattering into countless little shards that shredded his lungs apart.

"[Fate Reversal]."

He swiped his arm to the side, and Nemesis was sliced away, a clean cut pulling across his side and torso. At the same time, Silent Quibus' roar of pain echoed out once more.

The Quibus Faerie's chest exploded and his heart erupted. Violet blood poured out in all directions, but it wasn't enough, it wasn't nearly enough.

Veins appeared across the side of Ryu's eyes, and blood fell from them as though they were tears, but he didn't seem to notice in the slightest.

He dropped one of his great swordstaffs. They were so sharp that even though he didn't put the slightest bit of strength into it, it was buried into the cracked land down to the very hilt.

With his free hand, he grabbed Silent Quibus' whip. It had lost its trajectory after a rain of sudden injuries buffeted the man. Now, he had left himself wide open to being exploited.

Barbs cut into Ryu's palms, but he pulled hard nonetheless, using the barbs for extra grip as though he had entirely lost his mind.

Silent Quibus was pulled down from Nemesis' back, his face being pulled right into Ryu's knee.

PENG!

Silent Quibus was hit away with such force that he lost his grip on his own whip.

Ryu swiped a hand to the side, throwing the whip away along with layers of his own skin and flesh. With a wave of the same bloodied hand, his great swordstaff soared back into his palm.

He took a step and vanished, appearing above the Quibus and slashing out in a cyclone. His body rotated and a violent torrent followed.

Slash after slash was entirely relentless, and every action the Quibus took to try and recover was undone beneath the sharpness of Ryu's gaze.

On the outside, many couldn't help but stand completely stunned… Were the Mysteries of Heaven and Earth Pupils always this strong?

BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG!

The toughness of the Quibus' body didn't mean the slightest thing to Ryu. He cut into it again and again, his control over his own blade so perfect that he continuously cut the same patches of skin into ribbons down to the very bone.

BANG!

Ryu landed on the ground hard and heavy, the Quibus' body landing soon after.

He huffed for breath, but every one sounded like the breath of a Dragon.
