1226 Differential

Ryu's words caused the pupils of the three geniuses to constrict. Who spoke to Sky Gods like this? Even as geniuses of their Sect, they would be slightly differential to World Sea Realm experts despite only being a half step away, and that was even if such World Sea Realm experts were far beneath them in status and talent. This was just the way of the martial world, it was a logic they had learned early on, and one they only continued to learn the higher their cultivation Realms became.

However, Ryu disregarded these rules entirely, and he didn't disregard them with a normal individual either. This was a genius amongst geniuses, a woman whose level they might never reach the heights of.

Fairy Claire slowly recovered, shaking her head. When she finally registered the words Ryu had said, she froze, raising her head slowly as though she couldn't believe what she was hearing.

After regaining her bearing, she stood to her full height, her gaze sharpening as she looked toward Ryu. She seemed to have become a completely different person, her aura oppressive and overbearing. However, for some reason, when she looked into Ryu's eyes, she felt her own beginning to sting and water. It was a subtle feeling, one that she didn't quite grasp in her rage....

She hadn't ever been spoken to like this, even as a child, let alone since she became a Sky God.

Ryu didn't move. He realized that with Fairy Claire's eyes, although she was on the weaker side in comparison to the overall landscape of Sky Gods, she could see through his path of escape because of those eyes. As such, there was no point.

Even if he outran her in the beginning, she would eventually catch up, and swiftly at that. It was clear that he was correct in not bothering to waste time running, if he had then he would have been found out just now, and he would lack the witnesses in Zovaes, Iroh and Juno to ensure his safety.

It was doubtful that Fairy Claire would dare to kill him arbitrarily in the first place, at worst she would just teach him a lesson. But the added security of witnesses placed him more at ease.

"How rude..."

Hearing the little woman's voice enter his ears, Ryu just barely managed to refrain from shaking his head. He could tell that the Favor Alchemy Sky God was talking about him and not Fairy Claire. He couldn't be bothered to argue with this little woman.

Just as Fairy Claire was deciding what she should do, another powerful aura entered range. She and Ryu looked into the distance at the same time, something that once again made her frown. Was she just distracted? How had a Dao Pedestal Realm expert sensed the change at the same time?

A middle aged man descended, looking around with a frown. His aura was clearly several times more powerful than the Fairy, however given his light greeting to her, their statuses were probably on par. Even so, Fairy Claire respectfully returned the greeting, using the opportunity to sleep out of what could only be described as an awkward situation.

The middle aged man asked the same questions Fairy Claire had, but this time, it was Fairy Claire who responded. In the end, though, she mentioned that the aura of the broken formation...

"... The broken formation here seems to align with the aura of this disciple of the Radiant Star Sect, Senior Ronelis."

Ronelis' gaze sharpened once more when he heard of the Radiant Star Sect, his eyes landing on Ryu. Ryu met his gaze coldly, his back still straight and his momentum fierce.

Ronelis immediately didn't like the look in Ryu's eyes. He wasn't used to seeing the eyes of juniors at all, most would look away the moment they sensed him, but this boy was testing his patience already.

"It seems that the Radiant Star Sect is indeed arrogant. I really want to see if your elders would dare to come to snatch you back if I imprisoned you for disrespecting your seniors."

Ryu didn't say anything, he couldn't be bothered to say anything. It was clear these people were wary of the Radiant Star Sect and had not found a convenient excuse to probe them. He was only a step short of yawning.

He was quite used to these political games. Back when he was a cripple, they were all the games he could play, he had seen every play in the playbook. Now that he could cultivate, he truly preferred to play these games with his fist instead. Unfortunately, these two were far too powerful for him.

Ronelis sneered when he saw that Ryu didn't respond.

"It seems that you're more cowardly than I thought, unable to speak now? Even if you say nothing now, it's already too late. This formation was set up in Heavenly Dew Pavilion territory, this Legacy World also appeared in Heavenly Dew Pavilion territory, do you think that you can just do as you please? Today I definitely want an explanation from the Radiant Star Sect, what can you do about it?!"

With the hearing of a Sky God, how could he have not heard what Ryu had said to Fairy Claire before? It was just that he didn't want to bring it up so as to uphold the prestige of the pride of their Heavenly Dew Pavilion.

At this point, Ryu couldn't seem to hold back any longer.

"So I have the bravery to be rude to you, but can't speak? What kind of logic is that? Is that the brain you used to deduce your Dao? If you want to see the worth of the Radiant Star Sect, all of this probing is unnecessary and embarrassing, quite frankly. Don't you just have to wait for your little tag team event? Feel free to imprison me if I receive anything less than first place."

Ryu sneered, his momentum ramping up. This event sounded interesting, since it was convenient, he might as well make his true debut into the True Martial World.
