Chapter 418 - The Icy Ghost Flower(Part-2) (1/2)
Inside the cavern, the temperature had risen exponentially not from heat but anger.
Elmer was completely angry with the lack of progress he wanted to go out and rescue more of his people but Ryuu put his foot down on the matter completely.
The reason it was simple, unlike the previous area the Preta realm cultivators were not scattered but they were together forming a large group and Ryan refused to charge into their camp which was made akin to a fortress.
”For the last time, Elmer neither do we have the men, not the resource to siege a fort that holds men many times our number, so no we are not mounting an assault on their camp.”
”My men are dying because of your actions.”
”So you telling me to sacrifice everyone present here for the futile attempt to free your brethren.”
By now they were both murderously glaring at each other their spits were flying on each other's face as they shouted towards each other.
Ryuu's temper was flaring up at an alarmingly making both Zywia and Frozen Ocean to gain worried look on their respective faces.
'Damn Ryuu is getting enraged and if this continues Ryuu might end up exposing his secrets that he fought so hard to hide.'
Zywia cast a worried glance at Ryuu before her ears caught Elmer's next words, ”You are a bloody coward that is what you are, a disgrace to…”
Elmer did not get to finish his sentence when Zywia punched him hard breaking his nose and bruising her hand the process.
”Shut up, did you think we would let you insult us let alone my brother, if you want to go and commit suicide for your revenge then stop bothering us and go kill yourself, 'Oh brave one'”
As she spoke her zither was already by her side as she glared at Elmer, although internally she sweating from fear, 'Oh Heaven's I do not believe I acted so rashly now he would attack me, a lowly cultivator of only 6th rank and I would die.'
”Careful Elmer, such a glare could get you killed.”, True-Spear spoke as he stood by her side taking his usual stance with his spear over his shoulder.
Ryuu simply sends a grateful look towards Zywia, he was on the verge of using his full strength to bring Elmer to his knees, thus exposing most of his trump cards to everyone.
Severing Saber self-proclaimed oldest man amongst them intervened as he spoke, ”Young Ryuu, there is no need to argue with a man so immersed in the notion of revenge that he can no longer think anymore.”
Frost Flames appeared by Ryuu's side as did Frozen Ocean who spoke with a huff, ”Brother Ryuu if I remember correctly we had a schedule to keep upright? So let us leave and if he so wants to make some futile attempt and throw his life then there is nothing we can do for him except give him our best wishes.”
Ryuu nodded as he spoke in a resolute voice, ”Brother Elmer what you wish to do with your life is none of our concern does as you please everyone has the right to lead their life as they chose to and as such if any of the cultivators of our realm wishes to join and attack their stronghold they are free to do so, but I refuse to through my life away.”
He turned as he began to walk towards the exit only to stop for a moment as he began to speak, ”Oh a piece of friendly advice next time before insulting me remember that I will not hold back and neither will I miss.”
