865 He Couldn't

This was an even greater shock than his regression had been. Even back when he was a cripple, he could always vividly feel all four Bloodlines. Now it felt as though one of his limbs had suddenly been chopped off.

Little did Ryu know that this wouldn't be his only shock in just as many seconds. Somehow, he could only feel his Dragon and Qilin Bloodlines. Both of his Phoenix Bloodlines were nowhere to be found.

Ryu was left at an absolute loss for words. What the hell had happened to his body? Had that black blood expunged two of his Bloodlines to replace them? But hadn't that Blood just been Dark Phoenix Blood Essence? How the hell could a Dark Phoenix trump an Emperor Phoenix Bloodline?! It didn't make any sense!

'This…'

Ryu's brows tightened into a frown, suddenly realizing that the memories of his Phoenix Bloodlines were very much still there. But, he couldn't quite understand how that could be possible if he didn't feel them individually.
