Chapter 266: Stunned

The First Floor of the crystalline jade hadn't changed at all since the last time Ryu ventured here. The only difference was the fact Ailsa had followed him in this time.

According to Ailsa, the reason she was so confident in facing the four Zu Ancestors and even told Ryu not to worry about them was because the inner world of the crystalline jade and the Ethereal Realm existed on the same plane and frequency. As a result, Ailsa wasn't limited by Ryu's cultivation and their intimacy here. She could use her full strength here and had no problem maintaining her full form.

The issue that Ryu faced now was that this Faerie that had always been by his side had suddenly become more dazzling. It seemed that the so-called 'true form' Ryu was used to seeing wasn't actually Ailsa's real appearance at all. Rather, it was an almost… filtered version of herself. The real Ailsa made Ryu's heart beat uncontrollably.
