"I refuse, I refuse, refuse, refuse to bow down to some Preta sc.u.m, I refuse to resign."

As Ryuu glowered back at Sylvana who was rapidly losing her patience seeing the grounding of her teeth and clenching off her fist was any indication, as she shouted out at the top of her lungs, "That's it brat I am going to show you the folly of defying me."

As she spoke her KI as well as killing intent was rising to an alarming rate but instead of cowering Ryuu let loose his pitiful one in comparison to hers even if he had released every bit of his divine body coupled with his newly acquired domain.

But the anger between them to grinding halt as Maheswara flared his power as he shouted out, "Enough both of you, either control yourself or I will."

His words seemed to have the desired effect as not only Sylvana and Ryuu but his entire family went ramrod as they hostility was immediately subdued.

Maheswara may act as a funny person bordering idiocy but at the end of the day he was still the patriarch of the family, the one who held the true reigns, as such he easily reigned in his fighting children.

Ryuu looked down a bit ashamed of his outburst as Maheswara spoke with a frown, "Sylvana you are way older, wiser and stronger act as your status demands you.", his eyes then fell on Ryuu as he spoke, "Last I checked that I had taught you to be calm collected and above all patient, I doubt you remember any of it since you have started jumping without tackling the situation in a calm manner."

Antariksh sighed before she spoke, "Father arguing will get us nowhere except Ryuu having a trip to the hospital because of an enraged Sylvana.", before her eyes fell on Sylvana as she spoke while shaking her head in exasperation, "Sister you should know better, this is the same boy who refused to bend a knee in front of a Dao father when he was just seven years, or did you forget the incident when he was barely five and the immortal had to break his limbs in order to make him kneel in front of him."

Sylvana simply took a few deep breaths to calm herself, before she spoke with a huff, "How could I forget that he is stubborn enough to court death."

Ryuu puffed up his chest as he spoke, "I rather die with honour than..."

Whatever Ryuu was about to say was stopped by a collective stern glare from his teacher's wives, as Maheswara spoke, "Ryuu, tell me how do you rate yourself in terms of power, if you were forced to duel up to what level could you fight easily."

Ryuu frowned as he replied back, "If I were to go all out maybe I can kill a normal fifth rank, stall the sixth one for some time, but rest are too much for current me."

Maheswara nodded as he spoke, "I see so since you understand your power can you tell me what would happen with the bounty of ours."

Ryuu sighed as he spoke, "It would draw the attention of some very powerful cultivators who would do anything to get my bounty."

Antariksh frowned as she spoke, "And do trust your men enough to think that they would stand by your side when you face them."

At her question, a rather bright smile blossomed on Ryuu's face as replied back to her, "Of course I trust them that given chance they would backstab me."

The casual and happy way he spoke send a jolt down his listener's spine except for Maheswara who spoke with a sigh, "Then why are you so adamant about facing the danger."

Ryuu sighed as he spoke, "If I withdraw today, then I will spend the rest of life running, and that is something I do not wish to do."

Maheswara sent a proud smile towards him as he spoke, "You are right about it Ryuu if you withdraw you might spend rest of the life withdrawing when life gets tough."

Sylvana frowned as she spoke, "But it is also foolhardy to try and court death unnecessarily, after all, what could your pride and courage do when you are dead."

Maheswara gave a nod of agreement as he spoke, "So true daughter, so true.", his eyes then roamed over towards Ryuu as he spoke, "Remember, just because you are our disciple you have been certain privileges that others do not, tell me if it were any other cultivator from saying normal background then what would have happened to him."

Ryuu bit his lips as he spoke, "He would have had to rejoin the army and then die soon."

Maheswara nodded as he spoke, "You are correct, the army no matter what anyone would say is made up of people, most of whom who have not joined out of some sense of duty, loyalty or patriotism but because of the resource they receive, thus making only a very small part as the truly loyal one, given chance most of them would simply leave."

Ryuu could not help but reply with a sigh as he spoke, "I know, I also know that I have spent some time with them working with them but at the end of the day I spent an almost equal amount of time away from them, so basically I will be a new face once again to them, a new face that can help them make a quick fortune."

Sylvana nodded as she spoke, "That is why only a select few have a better career prospect and are also privy to many things so as not to cause a major leak, if only there was one power that controlled the entire realm the army would be more unified and better discipline.", she then turned to her father as she spoke, "So father what should we do."

Instead of replying Maheswara simply stared at Ryuu who had suddenly gained a contemplative look on his face which made him clear his throat out loud drawing Ryuu's attention towards him as he spoke, "I hope you are not planning on conquering the entire realm now."
