As they arrived at Gu Jue's residence, his voice drifted out from the cave dwelling. "You're here. Come in."
The voice was the same, but... Lu Sangjiu frowned slightly, feeling that something was different.
Entering Gu Jue's cave dwelling, the sight of him sitting cross-legged sent a jolt of shock through both Lu Sangjiu and Xie Ningyuan.
"Mr. Gu, how could you be..."
Lu Sangjiu didn't know how to describe it, but the aura emanating from Gu Jue was indeed different from yesterday. She could even... faintly sense the aura of the Heavenly Dao!
Gu Jue lifted his gaze and swept it over Lu Sangjiu. His look was indifferent, serene, and utterly devoid of emotion.
He possessed a natural authority. Without saying or doing anything, his mere presence inspired a profound sense of awe.
This feeling... Lu Sangjiu had never felt it from anyone before!
Someone couldn't change so drastically overnight. Lu Sangjiu instantly became guarded. "You're not Gu Jue. Who are you?"
