Chapter 1865 Outcomes
A few days later, his grandmother finally returned from wherever it was that she went. She heaved a tired sigh upon return, taking a good long rest.
Naturally, Rui couldn't contain his curiosity.
"How'd it go, grandmother?" He asked once she had recuperated for some time.
"Hmph, the Martial Sages of Kandria were stronger than I had expected. But I still managed to secure rank four."
Rui's eyes lit up at those words. "You mean you beat seven of them?!"
As far as Rui was concerned, that was incredible.
Martial Sages of the Kandrian Empire were stronger than their peers for the same reason that Kandrian Martial Artists of other Realms were also stronger than the average Martial Artist. Rêạd new chapters at novelhall.com
The Kandrian Empire had better everything as far as Martial Art went.
Thus, the fact that his grandmother was able to defeat seven of them and rank fourth was quite incredible. This was especially the case when she had recently broken through to the Sage Realm and did not possess as much experience with the Sage Realm as the Martial Sages of the Martial Union.
It was all thanks to the potency of her Martial Art.
"Most importantly, I managed to defeat that obnoxious woman and restore my pride and the pride of the Silas Clan," she snorted.
"The Hugging Hegemon? You actually beat her?" Rui stared at her incredulously.
"Indeed," Matriarch Nephi heaved a tired sigh. "She was the toughest of the seven to beat."
"So then, who did you lose to?"
"..."
"Huff..." Matriarch Nephi shook her head lightly. "This is what happens when a genius Martial Artist trains non-stop for more than four centuries without his drive waning even a little. You get a monster of a Martial Sage with unparalleled power."
Rui stared at her in shock.
He knew that Kane's father was strong. But he didn't know the man was this strong!
It was difficult to imagine his grandmother with her prophecy, losing to a Martial Sage with such an impediment in his power holding him back. Yet, clearly, it was more than possible.
"He is probably the strongest Martial Sage in the Kandrian Empire," Matriarch Nephi shook her head with a sigh. "Nevertheless, I have earned the respect that I am due by showing the world the power of the Silas Clan. And now that I am in the Kandrian Empire..."
Determination flickered in her eyes. "...I shall make good of its resources to focus on training and elevating myself to a higher degree. This was something that I was largely unable to do when we of the Silas Clan were still nomadic."
Now that she no longer had to worry about the safety of her clan nearly as much, she had more time to dedicate herself to her own power.
She turned to Rui. "Now then, I shall cater to your request. I have had time to consider the information you have provided and to let it sink in. I believe that I am now able to supply you with a prophecy that can help you find the Divine Doctor."
Rui's eyes lit up with enthusiasm. "Great. Let's get right to it."
Her eyes grew a tag more severe. "I must warn you, the Beast Domain is...difficult to scry. My visions of the future are not always entirely decipherable when it comes to it. The information is disjointed and can be incoherent."
Rui raised an eyebrow. "How bad can it get?"
His grandmother winced. "It is better than I show you, then tell you. Prepare yourself."
She waved her hand, conjuring a barrier of heaven to separate her little shed from the rest of the Silas Clan for the timebeing.
