The Arcane's shadow slowly disappeared in the darkness. Cloud Yi stretched out her hand to grab him, but she grabbed nothing.
The Arcane laughed out loud. "When the king awakens, please tell him my name."
Silence then filled this dark space.
The Arcane walked along the roots of the World Tree. The roots, which were stained with dirt, were wide enough to fit three cars. At that moment, someone behind him shouted, "Have you been the one talking to me all this time?"
The Arcane turned and looked behind him. "Young lady, have you destroyed the barrier I have created for you?"
Coral pursed her lips and did not speak. She looked at the young man in black robes sitting on the roots of the World Tree. She asked softly, "What on earth is Lu Shu?"
The Arcane laughed. "I can't tell you this, but you seem to have the answer."
"Where are you going?" Coral asked.
"To do what I have to do." The Arcane smiled. "Everyone has their own mission."
