Ryu's laughter echoed through the skies as though he relished in the chaos he was bringing down onto the world.
He had thought that something like this would happen. In fact, the very first time he saw the formations that artificially suppressed the Dao, he realized that something like this must be going on. The only reason he hadn't acted on it was one, because he didn't have the capability to, and two, because he didn't have a full scope of understanding of exactly what was happening.
It wasn't until Ryu learned that there were higher level worlds that things finally began to piece themselves together for him.
He had gotten a lot of clues about just how dangerous the Martial Gods were, but he couldn't understand why the Martial Gods would settle down in such a weak world if there were much stronger ones around them.
