Li Rui returned to the position from nine seconds ago, when he was still confronting Xue Can at the prison gates.
But now, that swordsman was nowhere to be found, and the companions who arrived earlier showed no intention of collecting his remains, directly incinerating him with spells instead.
Li Rui saw two bald heads in front of him.
One was Gu Suixun, whose head was covered in tattoos, and the other was a Western Regions face, Oudira Gondor, who once battled Isa Eso and Simon at the summit of the Holy Mountain.
Besides them, there was a middle-aged woman draped in cathedral robes.
Li Rui pondered for a moment, recalling that she was also a notable figure, a bishop at the core of the Polar Cathedral, just half a step away from reaching level 70.
Since their meeting was accompanied by immediate combat, there was no exchange between the parties.
Li Rui also felt there was nothing worth discussing with Oudira Gondor, whose face screamed for a beating.
