Chapter 1852 Eyes


    1852 Eyes


    Ryu didn''t react to these words. Though, in action, it looked like he was much too slow to react. The words of the Luminara Clan Dao God were acted upon so swiftly that it seemed almost too obvious that all of this was planned in advance.


    However, what they had underestimated was Ryu''s thinking speed. He might have been weak, but between his innate strengths thanks to the unique combination of talents he was born with, not to mention his Internal Matrix, the movements of these Dao Lords and Dao Sovereigns were well within his purview. If not, he would have never been able to act with enough precision and ferocity to deal a dead blow to a Dao Sovereign.


    So, just when it seemed that the Dao Lords were about to reach him, he spoke calmly.


    "Sure, you can have a go. We''ll see who''s faster, the pitiful Dao Lords and Sovereigns of your Clan, or me. And if you think taking my eyes is so easy... I have quite the rude awakening for you."


    Ryu closed his eyes again as though what was happening around him had nothing to do with him. However, even with them closed, he could feel hands grabbing for his body and fingers prying toward his eyes.


    Even then, he did absolutely nothing at all.


    BANG!


    A trio of two fingers and a thumb pressed into his head, pinching into his skin and shattering the bone that surrounded his eyes.


    They reached over and grabbed down, pulling.


    It was a pain that could shake the soul. This bone was probably one of the most sensitive, if not the most sensitive, of the entire body, and it fragmenting like this sent pieces flying into equally as fragile and sensitive skin.


    However, when the fingers pinched down and tried to pull, Ryu''s entire body came with them.


    And yet, despite being so close to death, Ryu was impossibly calm.


    For one, even if his brains were pulled out, with his control over his soul, he wouldn''t die immediately and he could still use Embryonic Qi to repair himself.


    And two, this was all within his calculations.


    Ryu took his eye back from Aerendil''s stunned open palm. The Dao Sovereign was so shocked about what was happening that he didn''t even react to the change. He could only watch as Ryu put his eye back in.


    Blood drizzled down half of Ryu''s face and cheek, but when he looked forward, he didn''t seem to have noticed at all.


    "Trash."


    It was a single word, and yet it sent a spike of fury spiraling through Aerendil''s body. And yet, when he raised a hand to strike, he couldn''t follow through.


    He knew that he couldn''t.


    If it was so hard to take Ryu''s eyes, that meant that without killing him, it was simply impossible. And if they killed him, it wouldn''t matter whether they took his eyes or not. That sort of bad Karma would wash over them all, and then their Real Plane would truly be finished.


    "It''s no wonder the Real Plane is in such a losing position. You Sovereigns are trash, your Dao Gods are fools, and you think that dealing with a genius like myself is actually so easy.


    "Why don''t you stop and think for a moment about why I dare to do all of this?"


    At that moment, the world shuddered and an aura descended.


    But they were shocked to find that it was a Dao Lord.
