"What? One person? What exactly is going on?" Chen Rui suppressed the turmoil in his heart, maintaining a curious expression on his face.
Eudora said blandly, as though she were speaking of someone entirely unrelated to herself, "She is the driving force behind the activation of the entire ancient magic array. That is why Lord Arthur was able to unleash the Crown of Thorns at several times its normal power just now."
Chen Rui's gaze flickered as he was about to press further when a Guardian Knight came to report, "Your Eminence, Lord Pasari has barged straight in without waiting to be announced!"
Eudora's brow furrowed. She saw that the "Radiant Sword Saint Pasari" had already appeared at the entrance to the Cloud Ascension Grounds. The Guardian Knights along the way had not even had time to approach him before an unusual force repelled them, making it impossible to stop him.
Pasari's strides carried a peculiar rhythm. He appeared neither hurried nor slow, yet in the blink of an eye, he had arrived before the Holy Radiance Platform.
"This must be Lord Pasari, teacher of Jemington, the master of Azure Thunder Hall?" Chen Rui knowingly asked. "I was fortunate enough to receive Lord Jemington's care in Golden Radiance Territory. To meet Lord Pasari, whom Jemington has always held in such high esteem, is truly an honor."
The previous resonance of the three holy artifacts had alerted Pasari, so he naturally recognized this newly favored "Holy Son" of Light Holy Mountain. He immediately gave a slight bow. "I did not expect Lord Arthur to be here. Please forgive my discourtesy."
Chen Rui hurriedly returned the salute. "You flatter me. I heard that Lord Pasari has already surpassed the Saint level and entered the ranks beyond it. Congratulations are in order."
