Chianyu stood on top of the cliff, the gentle breeze caused his hair to sway lazily as he looked down at the river flowing underneath the cliff, the sound of water flowing was extremely soothing as such he closed his eyes to listen to the sound.
"Ah there you are brother, what are you doing here?"
Chianyu glanced back towards the speaker as he spoke with a smile, "Just standing here and appreciating the calm and peaceful nature."
They stood there quietly for a moment before Chianyu spoke, "The last few days were so hectic, just like that second floor the entrance disappeared it was so scary."
His companion nodded with as he spoke with a sigh, "It truly was, not to mention those annoying banshees."Find authorized novels in , faster updates, better experience, Please click /book/heavenly-dao-child_11448539305377005/stepway-from-being-legend-(part-2)_50954648139398205 for visiting.
Chianyu nodded as he spoke with a sigh, "This wonderful place, housed such pitiful creatures, it was really sad to see."
"Who in the right mind would create banshees?"
"An extremely sick bastard that is who would create it."
"So true brother Chianyu so true, capturing, torturing and perverting a soul to such a heinous creature that only knows to feed on the living, and is forced to alleviate the pain, huh, you are whoever creates them are an extremely sick bastard."
"So, when are we going to enter the tomb that we found?"
"At least three days from now at the very least."
Chianyu nodded as he spoke, "Good, but how is brother Ryuu doing?"
The man ran his fingers through his hands as he spoke, "So so, we are waiting for a couple of days as he himself stated that he would recuperate."
Chianyu frowned as he spoke, "And you took his words like that, he can once again act high and mighty while hiding his problem."
The person nodded as he spoke, "So true, Severing Saber voiced the same concern."
Chianyu looked at him as he spoke, "So what did he say?"
The person sighed as he spoke with a sad look on his face, "He said that unless and until he is able to get out of this place he cannot be healed."
Chianyu sighed as he rubbed his forehead in exasperation as the other person kept on speaking, "Not to mention do you know when he got hurt."
Chianyu shook his head negatively as the other person spoke with a sigh, "It was during the second-floor fiasco he was injured and even as we are speaking he is battling with the poison."
Chianyu gawked at him as he spoke with disbelief, "He is fighting against something for almost a decade that killed others within a second, just what is he?"
With a wry smile, the person continued, "Since learning that Su-Min has been inconsolable."
Chianyu let out a heavy sigh as he spoke, "Of course she would be after all Ryuu traded his life for hers if he had not protected her she would be dead."
"That also explained one thing."
Chianyu looked at the person with a curious look on his face as he spoke, "What is it, brother?"
"Whenever we had a tiring battle Ryuu would disappear from some time, and then he would reappear again looking a bit worn out and tired, I always thought he was worn out because of the battle but now I know, he would have had an episode and was hiding it from all of us."
Chianyu balled his fist hard as he spoke with anger in his voice, "But, why? Why would he hide it from us?"
Once again the other person ran his hand through his hair as he spoke, "That was something that also crossed my mind, not to mention I was angry at him for that, but Severing Saber deduced it for us."
"Ho and what did that old man deduce."
With a sigh, the man spoke, "At first it was because we were strangers, then the Deva realm stragglers joined us, but most importantly because of our morals."
"Our morals??"
With a nod, the man replied back to his question, "Yes our morals, have you seen how he had gone up to become one of the most trusted and respected cultivator presents amongst us, how he is our leader in a sense, now think of it what would happen if we saw him collapse."
A look of horror crept up on Chianyu's face as he spoke, "We would have crumbled under pressure, some of the battles we were only able to win was because Ryuu stood tall and lead us, inspiring us."
Chainyu sighed as he spoke, "So true without him even the thought that our group could make this far is nothing but fantasy."
Meanwhile, Ryuu simply grumbled as he sent a stink eye towards True-Spear, he had half a mind to chuck his shoes at him.
True-Spear somehow managed to prevent the large grin that threatened to form on his face as he spoke with a concerned laced tone, "Please brother Ryuu, it is for your own good, that you should be confined to the bed."
"Shut up."
True-Spear simply shook his head as he spoke while mockingly chiding him, "Please do not be so angry we are only thinking for your own benefit."
~Grrrr~

As Ryuu visibly growled as Zywia slightly punched True-Spear on his shoulder as he spoke with a glare, "Stop aggravating him, here Ryuu I brought you some porridge."Ryuu was visibly shaking from anger only for his anger to drop as Frost Flames appeared and seeing the duo a scowl formed on her face as she spoke, "Stop bothering Ryuu, and scram from here, if he says he is fine then he is fine so stop pestering him."
Seeing the enraged look on her face the duo simply left while giggling as Frost Flames covered her face as she spoke with a tired sigh, "He may physically over a million years old, but mentally he is stuck at five-year-old age, I wonder if he will ever mature and now he found someone similar."
Ryuu nodded as he spoke, "They are like peas in a pod."
Frost Flames nodded before she sat beside Ryuu holding his hand as she spoke with concern laced in her voice, "Are you alright Ryuu? This one was even worse than before."
Ryuu gave her hand a small squeeze as he spoke, "I am fine love, I am perfectly fine, it is true that attack was much severe than before but I am fine."
She then placed her head on his shoulder as she spoke, "Are you still planning to attempt the fifteenth floor."
Ryuu nodded as he spoke, "I do not want to have some regrets later on, as such I would attempt because this will be the last time I will be stepping inside Eden, and after all, once I become Celestial I will be debarred from entering this place."
Frost Flames nodded as she spoke, "This place really is unique, no matter what anyone says this place I do not know what to think of this place."
Ryuu nodded as he spoke while gently embracing her, "You right love, and you are not the only one, since the day it was first discovered the questions and motives for its origins have plagued countless seniors but none have managed to answer it."
"Do you think there are more floors after the fifteenth one?"
Ryuu was silent for a moment before he spoke, "It would be disappointing to note that there is no level after the fifteenth."
"And if there is one will you attempt it?"
Ryuu was silent for a moment before he spoke, "No idea if there is time I might try though."
They stayed silent for a moment as Ryuu's mind was working overwork at her words, 'She is right there might be another level, but will I be able to attempt it or will be in a position to attempt it, even dragging everyone this far is a chore, the allure of treasures could only work so much.'
His mind then wandered off to another issue, 'Then the thing about my age, that I have yet to discuss with them, cultivators do tend to overlook age gap, because to them it is meaningless in the long run but my case is different I have yet to live the hundredth year of my birth compared to their millions.'
"What are you thinking?"
Frost Flames' words brought him out of his musings as he spoke with a small smile on his face, "Nothing I was just thinking about the immediate Tomb exploration and the subsequent exploration into the fifteenth floor."
Frost Flames frowned as she spoke, "If this place would throw random scenarios every time, then at least we would have had an idea what we will be facing."
"Hmm, maybe so but I like it like this, after all, it increases that charm and allure of this place."
"So true my love, so true."
Ryuu hummed in deep thought before he spoke, "The group that had managed to conquer the fourteenth floor went on to become a legend by themselves, they were a team of twelve, since then a handful had managed to copy their legend with the help of much larger group but none has managed to surpass them."
He took a deep breath as continued again, "I grew up learning about them, idolizing them, wishing to be like them, and now on the eve of surpassing them I do not know what to feel."
Frost Flames gently kissed Ryuu on his lips as she spoke, "Love, I do not know about others, I do not know about those legends but I believe no I know that you will surpass them because you are Ryuu, the man I love more than anything in this world."
Ryuu simply smiled as he gave her a chaste kiss before speaking with love shining in his eyes, "Thank you, my love, I am glad I met you."
