CHAPTER 2502 MY LIFE
Instead of answering Jared's question, Arthur asked, “Can you sense the aura of the face in the air?”
Jared nodded. “Yes.”
Arthur commanded, “Focus on sensing it.”
Jared shut his eyes, allowing the spiritual sense in his brain to spread out to sense the aura of the human face.
Shortly after, Jared furrowed his brows as cold sweat formed on his brows. All content © N/.ôvel/Dr/ama.Org.
“Tell me. What did you sense?” Arthur inquired.
“The face's aura is strange. It is complicated, seemingly encompassing a lot of things. I even sense my own aura entwined within its own aura!” Jared said in anguish.
“This face is made up of your auras. Your fighting auras, anger, and the souls of the dead people were absorbed into this face. You managed to rescue those people from the Evil Heart Sect's dungeon because Rudy allowed it. If he hadn't wanted you to save anyone, do you think you would have been able to save them with your own strength? Think about it. Why were those people from the Eight Major Secret Realms locked up on the third level of the dungeon? Are they really that important? Actually, they're not important at all. Rudy purposely locked them up on the third level because you would have to pass through the first two levels to reach the third level, which would result in saving everyone in the first two levels. He wants you to save them and bring them here. The disciples of Evil Heart Sect were just pawns to him, and their lives didn't matter because they would become his resources no matter what. I don't know if you can understand, but please remember that those from the Ethereal Realm are even more complex than you can imagine.”
Jared stood frozen after hearing Arthur's revelation. It all made sense now—why his rescue mission had gone so smoothly, why the relatives of Quindon and others were imprisoned on the third level, and why the Ethereal Realm inhabitants were held captive in the Evil Heart Sect's dungeon.
Those from Evil Heart Sect, including Malphas, Quindon, and the like, stared at Rudy in shock.
They had no idea they were pawns leading up to today's events.
They stared at the dead bodies, feeling their hearts being stabbed by needles.
“Why? Why did he plan this for so long? What is his goal?” Jared was utterly confused.
Rudy showed no concern for his own sect's disciples and had been masquerading as Tanner to control Evil Heart Sect for decades. He had even kept Quindon and others in the dark all these years. Jared couldn't fathom what Rudy's objective was.
“That's because he wants to revive the person in the bronze coffin,” Arthur said, raising his head slowly to gaze at the bronze coffin blanketed in an array of colorful lights.
Jared cast a curious glance at the bronze coffin. “What could be inside that coffin that made Rudy go to such lengths to plan this intricate scheme?”
All eyes turned to Arthur, their curiosity piqued about the individual inside the bronze coffin who held enough significance for Rudy to keep his true identity hidden for such a long time.
A faint smile formed on Arthur's lips. “That's not information you should be aware of. The truth will be revealed in due time by someone else.”
With that, Arthur shifted his focus to Rudy. “I came here to put an end to your actions. How dare you unleash this bronze coffin?”
Rudy let out an icy bark of laughter. “You won't be able to stop me. The formation has been activated, and the eight auras belonging to unique constituents have entered the bronze coffin. No one can stop me!”
“Now that I'm here, I'm confident that I can put a stop to your actions,” Arthur said confidently.
“How would you do that?” Rudy asked.
“By sacrificing my life.”
After Rudy heard Arthur's answer, his expression changed abruptly.
