For a short instant, Gulistan blinked in surprise. Clearly, she'd not expected such brazen words to pass Konrad's lips.
"You're even more shameless than I last checked. Impressive."
Setting two cups before them, she poured them tea then set the jugs aside to settle in the opposite seat.
"It's a special beverage. Useless for the Pure Self by your side, but very helpful in meridian condensation. Have a taste."
Gulistan explained, her tone having returned to seriousness. After examining the beverage through the system and making sure nothing wrong existed within, Konrad's eyes shifted back toward Gulistan, not sipping it still.
That she could see through the difference between Pure and True Self was no surprise. However, she could also see through his cultivation, an impossible feat for Saint-level experts unless he allowed them to.
And he didn't.
Therefore, Konrad could conclude that Gulistan's cultivation was at the Divine level. But what rank in particular, he couldn't say.
