Grand Ancestral Bloodlines

Chapter 537 Why Her?

“What is this? Are you really going to drag me into this clown show? You fuck me for a few days and suddenly now I’m yours, is that it?”

Isemeine erupted almost immediately when Eska retreated into her body. 

“Dammit!” 

Isemeine looked down at her body. She was actually wearing a dress? What kind of ridiculous nonsense was this? 

Without hesitation, she ripped it away from herself, revealing delicate lingerie that had been hidden beneath. But, even that didn’t last very long as she tore even that away as well, leaving herself stark naked. 

“That big titted whore… Fuck…”

Isemeine was especially pissed off about Eska’s bra for some reason. Well, it was likely due to the fact that after Eska retreated, she returned to her true body and found it to be at least two sizes too big. It wasn’t like she was flat, but that woman had two watermelons strapped to her chest. It was ridiculous. 

She mumbled to herself in an annoyed tirade as she took out another set of garments from her spatial ring. Eska had disdained to even touch the things of a Path Extinction Realm junior, so everything from Isemeine’s undergarments even up to her golden spear were perfectly intact.

“What are you looking at? It’s not like you haven’t seen this before.”

Isemeine slipped her panties on with a little too much ferociousness as she glared at Ryu, her breasts jiggling with extra emphasis. But, luckily, the fabric seemed to have been specially chosen for her as took it like a champ. One would have thought that Isemeine’s room was a warzone whenever it was she got ready, and the cracks spreading along the dining room floor showed that. 

Isemeine’s lip curled in disdain as she noticed the damage her casual stomp had caused. 

“This is the quality of Immortal Cave the Princess’s husband rides in? This is too pathetic.”

Ryu didn’t say a word as he watched Isemeine dress. He seemed completely unmoved by the whole thing, even his blood continued to circulate with a controlled calmness. 

Isemeine snorted and finished clasping her bra. Then, she pulled out another pair of tight white robes that wrapped around her explosive figure before she ran her hand through her short hair. 

She sat back down with a harrumph and ate the plate of food Eska had left to herself. 

“This food isn’t enough,” she spoke with no level of elegance. “My body is powerful and explosive. Since you’re using me, I only have two requirements, especially since I don’t have much of a choice anyway. 

“The first is that I need food. A lot of food. Definitely more than this. 

“And second, since you’ve fucked me once, you can’t just wipe your hands clean of the ordeal and leave. I don’t care about marrying you, nor do I care about being one of your women. But since you’ve opened pandoras box, you need to satisfy me otherwise I’ll only get grumpier. 

“Oh, and a kid from you would be nice. That way my mother won’t talk my ear off all the time.”

Ryu watched in silence as Isemeine talked and chewed. He couldn’t help but feel that she would be an excellent corpse puppet, at least theoretically. He was quite interested in knowing how different Vital Qis impacted the refinement process. 

After a while, he replied to Isemeine. 

“I have no intention of giving you my child and you also have no negotiating power here.”

“What are you? A woman? You ask for one kid and suddenly it’s a problem. Plus, it’s not like you’ve been using protection this whole time, for all you know, I’m already pregnant.”

“Wrong.” Ryu said calmly. 

Isemeine’s lip twitched. That was right, if there was anyone who would know almost immediately when she conceived, it would be Ryu. He wouldn’t even have to wait, he could practically watch the whole process happen with those eyes of his. 

Damn he was annoying. Isemeine really wanted to punch that handsome face in. 

“If you’re done, we’ll go to the third floor now.” Ryu rose, pulling Little Gem from his robes and holding the little one in his arms. 

“This isn’t enough food!” Isemeine complained. 

“There’s no more food left. I ate it all.” Ryu replied. 

Isemeine gagged on air. If it wasn’t for Eska, she would have already tried to put a foot through his chest. 

… 

Ryu appeared in the air with Isemeine by his side, taking the Death Worm Immortal Cave into his Incubator. 

With a thought, another Nether Key appeared and a portal flashed before them. 

“What the hell happened to this place? The second floor is collapsing.” 

Isemeine frowned as she looked around. The spatial tears and near apocalyptic surroundings hadn’t chained even one bit. But, Ryu pretended as though he hadn’t seen a single thing as he stepped forward. Without a choice, she could only follow. 

The truth of the matter was that this was all caused by Ryu’s Spiritual Foundation. But, it had also exposed something very important in Ryu’s eyes. 

This might not have been the real Nether Realm… But it also wasn’t far from it. And, that was in terms of distance and proximity, not similarity. 

When the two stepped out, they didn’t find what one might expect. Rather than being yet another floor of the Nether Realm, it was rather an expansive hall. 

The floors and walls were carved out of black marble, the ceiling covered by a massive dome of glass. Through the glass, one could see an endless expanse of skies with a dark violet moon acting as the centerpiece of it all. 

Ryu matched what he was seeing to his memories almost immediately. This was the Tri, or rather, Nether Palace. This was the place he was supposed to enter from the very beginning, only for him to finally end up here after all of this. 

Something told him, though, that even while the designs might look the same, this would be a very different Nether Palace. 

“Isemeine?”

Ryu’s gaze shifted toward the voice, only to find another young woman that seemed to be similar to Isemeine in age and cultivation. In fact, there were dozens of pairs of eyes all focused on the new arrivals, all of them observing Ryu and Isemeine as though they would soon be enemies. 

But, the moment Isemeine heard this voice, she audibly groaned. Why her of all people?
