Matheus' body fell over the mont the chains shattered.
His body had atrophied too significantly, and he seed to have forgotten how to coordinate his muscles entirely.
Ryu, though, didn't catch him. Instead, it was Taedra that appeared out of nowhere.
BOOM!
The platform cracked and shattered. Ryu could only chuckle, seeing just how bad Taedra was at controlling her power.
Luckily, she managed to save Matheus from the fate of dying from the rubble.
Tears streaked down her face and there was a strong, vibrating aura coming from her. It looked like even now, she was very close to losing her temper.
Her hands shook as she propped Matheus up, seemingly too scared to use even a little bit more than the smallest power output she could muster on him.
Ryu could see that her thoughts were a scrambled ss. Despite having all the power in the world, she just felt…
Helpless.
Not knowing what to do, she looked back toward Ryu with a pleading look, her lips slightly parting as though she wanted to say sothing but didn't know how to put it.
Instead, though, tears flowed from her eyes, her throat moving as though a sob was about to burst through.
Ryu smiled lightly. "I understand."
He waved a hand again. The White Lion Heir had been sent flying back under the montum of the shattering platform, but in a blink, he found himself ripped back the way he had co from, soaring past it until his neck was firmly caught by Ryu's hand.
Fleeing figures scattered all around, trying to escape the range of the destruction. Those that could stepped into the air, their hearts apprehensive.
A bit to Ryu's surprise, the number that stepped into the skies included Matheus' woman, an interesting change to be sure.
Suddenly, an idea blood in Ryu's heart, but for the ti being, he only gave the lovely blond woman a single glance before looking toward the man in his hand.
The White Lion Heir scratched and clawed at Ryu's hand, trying to free himself, but to no avail. Trying to pinch at Ryu's skin was like clawing at an indestructible leather. It had the softness of skin, but the mont you tried to dig deeper, it beca tough to an extre.
"You've made my woman angry, that cos with consequences." Ryu spoke with a light smile.
"STOP!"
"HALT!"
The chariots in the skies seed to have finally reacted to what was happening. Everything changed so quickly from the mont Ryu appeared to now. Even now, they had no idea how Ryu had managed to sneak past all of them without a word, and not one of them could see through either Ryu or Taedra.
However, the consequences of the death of the Heir weren't sothing that they could bear.
Unfortunately for them…
BANG!
Those that rushed forward blasted apart into a rain of blood and gore.
The atmosphere froze again as a fury-filled Taedra looked toward the skies.
Ryu didn't even spare them a glance. Had they attacked him, the ending would have been much the sa.
The strongest up there were all in the True Sky God Realm at best, while this White Lion Heir seed to have only recently broken into the Fragnted Sky God Realm.
For whatever reason, he was hiding his cultivation right now, probably to deal with Matheus with another blow before he left.
But whatever it was, he couldn't possibly hide from Ryu's senses.
"Let go! Do you have any idea who I am?!"
"Nope." Ryu said lightly, but it was hard to tell if he was replying to the first or the second part of White Lion Heir's words.
But he also clearly had no intention of clarifying.
With his free hand, Ryu raised a hand.
All at once, the shards that remained from the shattered chains rose into the skies. Like tiny pinpoints of tallic sand, they trembled under Ryu's control.
"We'll make this easy on you. A few hundred years of torture should probably be enough. I doubt you'll last much longer than that anyway. Your Dao Heart is incredibly weak, so I'll probably have to adjust it to sothing that you can manage."
Ryu spoke like he was half thinking to himself, half trying to stir the fear of God in the Heir. But his words didn't pause the movent of the ashen tal.
CHI.
They cut through the air and covered the White Lion Heir's body from head to toe.
At first, he was still struggling, not feeling like anything was wrong…
Until a piercing scream ca from his lips.
If Tae just wanted this man dead, she could have easily done it herself. The reason she looked toward him with that pleading look wasn't because she wanted him dead… but because she wanted him to suffer.
Ryu himself didn't care enough to torture this man. But since that was what Taedra wanted, how could he not oblige?
The tal shavings pierced into the Heir's body, drilling into his skin and turning him the sa shade of bluish black the chains had been.
But that was only the beginning.
The small bits and pieces drilled even further down, cutting into his bones and drawing out his bone marrow, only to replace them.
In the blink of an eye, Ryu had forced the highest state of fusion between the Heir and this special tal. Even Matheus had only been about 20% of the way toward this state after decades.
Veins popped across the White Lion Heir's body, his shrill screeches painting the skies like peels of thunder.
Then… Ryu just let go of his neck.
He collapsed to the ground, convulsing wildly. He scratched and clawed at his skin, but the changes had made his body no less indestructible than the tal.
He couldn't even kill himself if he wanted to.
Of course, he could ask for outside help, but…
"KILL ! KILL NOW! KILL !"
Ryu smiled a knowing smile. As if it would be that simple.
