Ryu finally showed a trace of emotion when he heard this. He could hear the exasperation in Rinushka's voice because this was definitely information that would be common knowledge in this world, but to Ryu, it was all new.

He was shocked to hear this because that would mean... the Beast Dao Gods of this world were true monsters.

Ryu rarely respected anyone, but he suddenly really wanted to meet these Beast Dao Gods.

No Ancient Beasts? How ridiculous. It could be said that every one of the Beast Dao Gods of this world were Ancient Beasts who managed to become Ancestors of their own Bloodline Lineages.

But the irony was that it was because of this that they couldn't pass down their teachings. They had undergone too many mutations over the course of their cultivation, scrounging together all the resources, paths, and breakthroughs they could to cobble together their own unique bloodline.

If they wanted, they could copulate with another beast, but it would be extremely difficult to succeed. It would be far easier to reproduce with a Human, but that would require abandoning everything that they had built.

In the end, these beasts ended up becoming lone wolves of their own creation. They had no family, no kin… It was the loneliest path of cultivation to walk, and Ryu couldn't help but feel somber.

The moment he did, he was a bit surprised by his own reaction before he sighed.

It was no wonder this information hit him so hard. He had just walked out of his own path of blades and blood. If he ended up walking to the end of that path one day, only to find that he couldn't share it with anyone, would he be able to keep the same firmness of heart?

He still wanted to have his wives, he still loved his parents, he still thought of his grandparents every day, he thought of the child that might very well be in Hope's belly already, and he thought of the children he might have in the future.

These were all things that he hoped and pined for in the future…

Thinking about what it would feel like to not have those things, he couldn't help but sigh. It could be said that it was thanks to these things in part that he was able to survive this time. Without them… could he still do the same?

Rinushka was taken aback by Ryu's reaction. Her expression softened. At the very least, Ryu seemed far less hateful now than usual.

It was hard for those of other Races to sympathize with one another, and because of the usual status of beasts, and the fact their Dao Gods didn't feel any sense of belonging to them, most ended up treating beasts like any other animal.

However, Ailsa was different. Rinushka was a human, but Ailsa, a Faerie, had still taken her as a disciple. It could be said that Rinushka had a lot of appreciation for her master because of this alone.

The fact that Ryu could sympathize with beasts gave her a better impression of him.

"What does your master mean by organize?" Ryu asked.

Suddenly all that goodwill flew out the window and Rinushka almost reached forward to strangle him. That was exactly what she had been explaining this entire time.

Rinushka took a breath and exhaled. She was a Dao Lord; she shouldn't allow her emotions to be swayed so easily.

"By organize, it means exactly that. Do you not understand how language works? The beasts have no sense of purpose or order, and because they walk around like animals when they have far more potential than that, a lot of talents among them end up wasting away."

Ryu chuckled.

This really was an excessive ask. To organize and lead beasts, even if they were beasts of poor talent, would require strength, strength he certainly didn't have. Asking him to do it in ten years was even more ridiculous.

However, in the end, Ryu shrugged. "Alright. Tell your master I'll come see her soon."

Likely because she was so pissed off, Rinushka snorted. "You wouldn't even be able to take a step within 1000 kilometers of where my master is now, let alone go to see her. Just obediently do as you're told."

"A Holy World, huh?" Ryu continued walking off into the distance without looking back.

Rinushka's expression flickered. She hadn't said anything of the sort, why would Ryu guess that?

She didn't say anything, but he didn't need her confirmation. Ryu had already guessed that Ailsa had to be in a separate world because he couldn't sense her soul clearly, but she also had to be on this world. The only way that was possible was if she was in a Holy World.

If Ailsa, a Dao God, was in a Holy World, it could only be the highest class of Holy World, one so important that basically the entire Fate of the Real Plane hinged on it.

It was no wonder she couldn't just casually leave. That wasn't just any battlefield. It was one where Dao Lords could only be cannon fodder and Dao Sovereigns could die in droves.

If he wanted to see her, it wouldn't be easy.

Now, the real question was how to organize this Beast Domain… and maybe more importantly than that, it was why Ailsa wanted him to do this in the first place.

Was it just a method of training and she felt that he could improve here rapidly? Or did she have another reason?

Ryu couldn't help but think of Nemesis, Little Rock, and Little Gem. He wondered if they were by Ailsa's side right now… or if they had all been separated.

He shook his head. Worrying about them would make him worry about Yaana as well. The fact Ailsa had never mentioned her made him feel like she didn't know where she was either, and that would leave him feeling particularly bitter.

He disappeared from Rinushka's sight, leaving her steaming. As for his thoughts, he already had a bit of a cheat code to deal with this Beast Domain.

Wasn't that what his favorite Spatial Dragon was for?
