The walls of the Blood Empire shook lightly with the force of Ian's voice. It didn't take long before the Grand Elder arrived, rushing into the throne room. His long robe fluttered behind him, and his hair had turned completely white, though his face looked no older than before.
"Ian… Is that really you?" the Grand Elder said, his voice cracking with emotion.
Ian smiled faintly. "Yes. It's been a long time."
The Grand Elder stepped forward, then paused. Ian narrowed his eyes. With his Tri-Vision Eyes and True Mind's Eye, he could see deeper than what the naked eye could. That was when he noticed it.
A huge, dormant power was hidden within the Grand Elder's heart. It wasn't just any power, it was divine ki, the type only True Gods possessed. But the Grand Elder didn't even seem aware of it.
Ian blinked. "Grand Elder… Do you know that you have divine ki sealed inside you?"
"What?" The Grand Elder looked confused. "That's not possible. I've never felt anything like that."
