章 760: Human Beast

The martial world seemed to have been put on notice. The reverberating impact of Ryu's appearance was deeper than just this, though. Those who remembered exactly who Elena's husband were could only be said to be simmering in their own fury. 

In the martial world, a married woman, or more accurately in this case, a widow, was often considered to be 'used goods'. There weren't enough Matriarchal societies in the martial world to shift this sort of view and the result was as expected. 

However, this didn't mean that there weren't exceptions to this rule, and Elena was quite a special exception. The first reason was because of her background and the person her father was. Being attached to such a family was something even a Sky God would want for reasons that were still a bit… unknown to Ryu.
