"You... WHAT?!"
Rinushka didn't even quite register what Ryu had just said at first. Her tongue was running faster than her mind, and she felt like she just had to give a generic witty reply back to make Ryu accept the battle.
She was still a Dao Lord, but from what she could tell, Ryu's body had at least broken into the Dao Lord Realm as well. Although they were still mismatched, she had been wanting to teach this arrogant bastard a lesson for a long while.
Back then, she was the one who had gone to save him from the entrapment of the Luminara Clan before dropping him off at the Beast Domain with the ten-year limit that Ailsa had given him.
Of course, Ryu had ended up doing things in a much shorter time frame, but Rinushka hadn't been there for that, having entered seclusion to complete another task her master had given her.
She had only just exited, only to find that the arrogant bastard she too hated was actually taking advantage of their Sect's little pearl? That was absolutely unacceptable. She had to at least teach Ryu a lesson before things got out of hand.
But now...
She was absolutely infuriated.
A sword appeared in her hand, and she pointed the tip right at Ryu's chin.
"Take those words back right now or I will have your head."
Rinushka was so infuriated she saw red. She didn't care if Wobbling Fairy had even the slightest bit of feeling for Ryu. Even if they were real, for the words that Ryu had just spoken, she would have his head no matter what.
"I will give you three seconds to lower your sword," Ryu said.
A chilly wind suddenly passed through, and even Star River felt a tingle crawl up her spine.
The atmosphere had completely shifted, and suddenly Star River remembered the time Ryu started crippling and ejecting their disciples from the Sect one after another.
Rinushka didn't know it, but Ryu was someone with a hair-like trigger. It was hard to tell what would set him off under normal circumstances, let alone when it was a situation that anyone would be infuriated by.
No cultivator with the slightest backbone would be okay with someone pointing a weapon at them, let alone Ryu.
The only reason he hadn't already attacked to kill was because of exactly what he had already said...
This was Ailsa's disciple.
A master for a day, a parent for life. If she was Ailsa's disciple, then for all intents and purposes, she was by extension as important to Ailsa as a daughter would be. Ryu very much doubted that Ailsa would take in any disciple casually.
By the same token, Rinushka was also almost certainly a powerhouse amongst Lords. As for how good she was? Ryu never bothered to find out. He didn't care.
But if she made him find out, things wouldn't necessarily end well for her. Not at all.
Rinushka was only more infuriated by Ryu's words, and she suddenly pierced forward before anyone could say anything.
Her fury seemed to have risen to her head.
Not only was Wobbling Fairy important to her, but Ailsa was no different from her own mother.
Ailsa had once spoken about the kind of man her husband was. In fact, Rinushka might be the only one who knew that Ailsa was truly married at all, while everyone else could only speculate and draw baseless conclusions from rumors.
The man she envisioned was nothing like Ryu at all, and he certainly wouldn't be picking up women in the Sect of his own wife while he had several more women at his beck and call on top of that.
Rinushka only realized that she might have gone too far halfway through, but even so, her fury wouldn't be abated. Rather than slowing down, she accelerated.
There was only a small gap between her sword and Ryu to begin with. And yet...
Her sword passed through nothing but air.
Ryu didn't even look like he moved, but the distance between the sword and his neck remained the exact same. He still held Wobbling Fairy's waist in one arm, while his other didn't even budge in the slightest.
He looked as calm as could be, indifferent to the world. And yet, there was a chilling
cold that pervaded the air.
"Die." He said indifferently.
BANG!
The air exploded and then...
PUCHI!
Rinushka's eyes widened as she grabbed at her throat. At some unknown time, a sword had torn through her throat, blasting out a hole through the back of her skull.
"Rinushka!" Star River screeched.Nôv(el)B\\jnn
"Rinushka!" Wobbling Fairy's eyes widened, but the grip Ryu's hand had on her waist was so tight that she found herself frozen in place.
Star River caught Rinushka, her eyes filled with a light of panic. Blood covered her hands immediately, and she seemed to have forgotten everything she knew at that
moment.
It was only after panicking for several seconds that she seemed to recall something and hurriedly pulled out several pills, stuffing them into Rinushka's mouth. But the blood continued to pool.
"Please!" Wobbling Fairy tugged on Ryu. For some reason, she felt that she could stop this.
However, when Ryu looked over to her, she felt like she had descended into an ice cellar.
She had seen it clearly just now as well. Rinushka had definitely tried to kill him. With her cultivation, she had more than enough time to react, but she had still chosen to
double down.
Maybe that was because she realized that she had already offended Ryu beyond the point of return, but did the reasons matter when she had already acted with such
impunity?
There was simply no going back.
Wobbling Fairy's eyes began to brim with tears again.
"Please... Please..."
To Wobbling Fairy's surprise, Ryu's expression suddenly softened.
"Alright."
With a flicker of his eyes, the pills Star River was using suddenly began to work
properly.
