114 The light realm opens 5 (1/2)
Three people stepped out of the array. One they knew as the energy manipulator Nti Anem, the other; they had never seen before.
”It's him, isn't it?” someone whispered.
”Patriarch Tie's disciple? It has got to be.” another said.
”He looks a bit over twenty.”
”I thought he would be younger.”
”I thought he would be more handsome.”
Many quickly assessed Ed, but he did not respond. It was either he did not care, or he looked down on them. Nevertheless, Ed maintained a blank face as he followed Tie Nse to the front of the light realm table. At this moment, His appearance shocked people that had seen him before.
”It's him.” Lady Mi heard her daughter say and raised a brow at this.
”You know him?” she asked.
”I met him while travelling back to the alliance, mother.” she answered.
”Impossible!” Jia Lin's eyes rounded out into disbelief.
”Brother Lin?” the girl beside him asked.
”How can it be him?” Jia Lin did not spare her a look. The crowd gave way for Ed to pass. As they walked past the Heaven sect, they were stared down by the heaven sect disciples who felt their patriarch left them because of this disciple of his. To this, neither Ed, not Tie Nse paid them any mind. As people parted way for them, Ed's figure finally entered Ku Jian's eyes. The next second, she flashed before him, making many gasp.
Confusion turned to more confusion as she grabbed his arm instantly and called like a little child, ”Brother Ed!” to this, many froze; Tie Nse and Ku clan chief, more than others. He was worried for his daughter and Tie Nse was worried Ed would kill her. This boy was unpredictable, why would you just act without thought?!
”Mn” was all Ed answered, giving her a blank look.
”How could you have left without me? This old pervert is not a good person, be very careful!” she stared daggers at Tie Nse.
”Mn.” Ed answered and Tie Nse turned indignant.
”This boy, whose disciple are you?!” Tie Nse asked but Ed just walked ahead, leaving him behind to fume. To this, Ku Jian scoffed and followed Ed. Nti Anem did not bother with Tie Nse and followed after Ed.
