Capítulo 2045: Disbelief

Sarriel was in slight disbelief at her inability to deal with Ryu. These defenses weren't normal, and there was definitely something off about them. 

Although she was suppressing her own cultivation to the Lord Realm, it had to be understood that there were very few Lords across Existence that could match up to her at all. 

The things that she had learned during her time in the True Martial World made her realize that just bringing her Clan back wouldn't be so easy. 

As much as it looked like she was ambitious, she had thought her only enemy in this life were the Martial Gods, only to realize that the so-called Martial Gods weren't nearly as simple as they seemed on the surface. 

This was a realization that Ryu himself had made on many occasions. It was simply too difficult to take the strength that the Martial Gods displayed on the surface at face value. Their true abilities ran much deeper than maybe anyone knew.
