บท 79: Chapter 78: Cunning Sun Ru: distribution of forces

Sun Ru rose from his seat, his weathered face showing a hint of surprise as he addressed Luo Tian and Xie Fang. "Ah, so it is disciples of the Profound Sword Palace! Please forgive this old man for not recognizing you earlier." His voice carried a slight tone of surprise as he clasped his hands in a gesture of courtesy towards Luo Tian.

Initially, Sun Ru had paid little heed to the Qian clan disciples at the entrance. However, as his gaze fell upon them now, he noticed the distinct robes that marked Xie Fang as an outer court member of the Profound Sword Palace. Luo Tian, on the other hand, stood apart in a shimmering silver robe that caught the light in an ethereal glow.
