Chapter 2032 So Too

This chapter is updated by JustRead.pl

Of the Truth Clones that remained, one suddenly flashed over to the side and fused into the Summoned Demon's body.

All of a sudden, its already oppressive aura reached a new stage, and Ryu was sent blasting backward with a single ripple of its wrists.

Ryu barely stabilized himself in the air hundreds of kilometers away as he watched an Ice Queen step out from the portal.

Her skin was an unhealthy sheen of whitish blue, or rather a sheen that would have been unhealthy on practically any other creature. However, her eyes... rather than being the usual blue, they carried sparkling shades of violet...

Ones that looked eerily reminiscent of Sarriel's eyes.

Ryu's eyes narrowed. He knew that this wasn't a normal matter by any stretch of the imagination, especially not when three more portals appeared and the three remaining clones fused into each of their bodies.

Each one of the Ice Queens managed to gain Sarriel's violet eyes.

Each of them swiped at the air, causing a long katana of white-blue ice to appear in their fair and delicate palms. The crowns above their heads shimmered as Sarriel stood casually behind them, her own eyes glowing for a moment before they dimmed. Ryu knew that Sarriel had cast a skill with her eyes just now, but he didn't know exactly what it was until the four Ice Queens moved.

Each one of their auras was in the Lord Realm, and when they moved, vicious winds rippled around them.

One suddenly appeared behind Ryu, almost catching him off guard. It was like it had phased through his senses entirely.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

That was when Ryu understood.

The four Ice Queens formed a Domain of Ice, forcefully changing every qi in the surroundings to suit their element. As Ice Queens, they were formed entirely from the Ice Element as well, meaning if the four worked together to create a Domain like this, they could instantly shift anywhere within it.

It was essentially an advanced application of Spirit Body.

However...

Ryu, who was prepared for a slash to his back, felt a sudden spike of pain.

His gaze flashed, and he looked down to find a wound eerily similar to the one he had given Blue Moon. No, it wasn't just eerily similar, it was completely identical in every way, shape, and form, even down to the Darkness Qi rampaging through his body right now despite the fact that the Ice Queens should have only been using Ice Qi. It seemed that on top of using this Domain of Ice, they were also able to use Sarriel's illusion and reality abilities to add yet another layer of confusion.

However, when Ryu saw the wound cutting into his shoulder, through his heart, and out of his hip, his grin became even more demonic.

Was this payback for her little boyfriend? He had to say...

She was quite good at pissing a man off.

Ryu suddenly reached out to the side. It looked like he was grabbing at empty air, but sparks flew from his claw as he suddenly clamped down on a sword that had been invisible just moments ago.

His wrist flexed, and the sword shattered.

Ryu suddenly vanished, his Tatsuya movement art turning him into a streak of starlight that vanished into a smattering of ice. He activated his own Ice Spirit Body, slipping into the Domain of the Ice Queens without the slightest worry and then... **BOOM!**

He crupted with flames and lightning.

His Fire and Lightning Spirit Body layered on top of it, and as his body fused into their Domain, which was likewise connected to them, they felt themselves being burned from the inside out.

Ryu appeared high in the skies above, blood still drizzling down his chest, but the head of an Ice Queen, leaking icicles, was being held by the hair.

Qi rippled and roared around Ryu, his momentum only increasing as he became more and more familiar with incorporating his Dao Heart into his battle prowess.

Sarriel seemed to be taken aback again. This time, she wasn't expecting her Ice Queens to be dealt with so easily, and certainly not by this method.

Ryu was sure confident in himself. Fusing his Spirit Body with the bodies of four others like that was exceptionally dangerous. With those four working together, on top of the confusion layered in by her Truth Pupils, he could have easily lost himself permanently, destroying his soul and never being able to reform his body.

But here he was, still spry and looking for battle.

Sarriel smiled. "Decent. But you've got a little injury there."

Ryu looked down at his chest, only for the wound to suddenly close.

Sarriel chuckled, seemingly not caring in the slightest.

At that moment, Sarriel's aura changed, and she became more alluring. The red on her cheeks deepened, and she fluttered her eyelashes.

Looking down at her palm, she began to speak with a sultry voice.

"Your chest didn't feel too bad in my palm, handsome. I think I might touch it again..."

She vanished, her body swaying through the air.

She appeared before Ryu, her palm striking the exact same place it had before.

Ryu's body bent into a curve, being sent flying through the air.

Sarriel appeared high above Ryu's flying form, ready to strike out again.

But at that moment, Ryu's wings flapped, sending a whirlwind of air pressure toward her. The power of the upward thrust was so great that the vacuum that formed behind him sucked up the ground, sending shards of earth scattering upward.

Sarriel's eyes only blinked, watery and misted over with lust.

Somehow, she phased through it all, pressing a palm to Ryu's chest again.

**BANG!**

Ryu's trajectory changed. From moving horizontally to the ground, he was blown downward and through it.

Sarriel vanished once more, appearing on the edge of the crater Ryu was in.

The lust in her eyes faded, replaced by a murderous light. She raised her hand to her

lips, tasting Ryu's blood and shuddering with pleasure.

Every time her personality fluctuated, her soul's strength seemed to take another

enormous bound forward.

And as her soul strengthened...

So too did her eyes.
