Chapter 1586 Logu
Gustav looked around before he dashed away, saying, "Through here, uncle Rean."
Rean laughed after seeing that. He could have just flown with the kid, but the kid completely forgot that.
They ran through the streets for around 30 minutes. Eventually, they arrived at a rundown place where one could see quite a few poor people. Every city had such things, and the Realm of Gods was absolutely no exception. It was then that Gustav stopped in front of a tree in an open area. "Grampa Logu would usually come here once a day to relax. If we wait here, we can definitely see him sooner or later."
Rean shrugged his shoulders as he said, "How about you use your Divine Sense to show me his appearance. I can then look for him with my own Divine Sense."
Gustav was surprised to hear that. "Uncle Rean, how big is your Divine Sense?"
Rean smiled before answering, "At my current level, my Divine Sense can reach up to 10 kilometers."
"What's a kilometer?" Sadly, Gustav didn't receive any education, so he didn't know the concept of kilometers.
Rean pondered over it for a bit before saying, "Do you remember that shop of treasures at the entrance of this area?" Gustav nodded and waited for Rean to continue. "My Divine Sense can reach a little further than that." The shop was almost at the limit of his Divine Sense range, so it was a little less than 10 kilometers. It was 8 kilometers back when Rean was in the Peak Stage of the Elemental Transformation Realm. Surprisingly, his range increased an entire two kilometers from the breakthrough alone.
Sure enough, Gustav looked at Rean with a shocked expression. "So biggggg! Will I have such a huge Divine Sense in the future?" The kid obviously wanted to do that.
Rean nodded in response. "As long as you train hard in our sect, one day you will get strong enough to spread your Divine Sense to this distance." He then returned to the main topic. "So, can you tell me what this Grampa Logu looks like?"
"What about me?" Suddenly, Rean heard a voice coming from behind the tree. He couldn't help but be taken by surprise. He didn't notice the man... 'No wait, he isn't a he, he is a she!' Although the person in front of him looked like a man, Rean's eyes could tell with a glance that this person wasn't male.
"Ahem... why did you let the kids call you grampa if you're a woman?" Rean couldn't help but ask. "Also, is Logu really your name. It isn't very... female... if you know what I mean."
Logu was as surprised as Rean when she heard those words. It had been a very long time since anyone was able to tell that she was a woman. She even used Divine Energy to alter the sound of her voice to sound more like a male. "How did you know? My concealing technique should make it impossible for you to see through my body with Divine Sense."
Rean was taken aback again to hear that. "Technique?" Only then did he remember that the old woman indeed didn't appear in his Divine Sense. "Right! I didn't notice you getting close to me at all with my Divine Sense. That's quite a good concealing technique you have there."
Logu couldn't help but ask, "Then you didn't use Divine Sense to tell what gender I am?"
"I didn't," Rean confirmed as he nodded. "I'm specialized in healing skills. I have treated the bodies of both genders of countless humanoid races, believe it or not. All I needed was to look at you to know that you weren't a man. I have no need for Divine Sense. Besides, you just happen to be part of the human race, so it was even easier. Not that I couldn't do the same with other humanoid races."
Logu pondered it for a bit before nodding. "I see..." Soon after, she looked at Gustav on Rean's side and got cautious. "What do you want with me? Why do you have little Gustav with you?"
Gustav immediately answered, "Grampa Logu, we joined Uncle Rean's sect! You should join as well. You will have a lot of food to eat if you do."
Rean felt like crying after that. Didn't those words make him look like some perverted guy who used food to lure homeless kids?
Sure enough, Logu's expression turned dark when he heard that. "Brat, you better give me a very good explanation. Otherwise, even if we're in the city, I'll skin you alive. This kid already has it rough, and I won't permit anyone to take advantage of him."
Rean bitterly smiled in response. "Well, it seems like you got the wrong idea. Don't worry. Although it looks weird, I can guarantee that what he said is the real thing. I'm opening a new sect, and I'm recruiting people. I don't intend to do anything bad to him or any of the other kids."
"So you got more kids, huh?" Logu didn't seem to be any happier after hearing that.
As for Rean, he felt like this conversation was going in a direction that he didn't anticipate. "Ahem... Yes. Of course, it's not only kids. I also got a few adults who can take care of them. Anyway, in my sect, they will have access to food and cultivation resources. It won't be for free since they will have to work for it. However, it's definitely much better than their current lives," Rean quickly explained.
Logu obviously had her suspicions. Nevertheless, she decided to take a look for herself. "Is that so? How about you show me this sect of yours? If I'm not happy with what I see, don't blame me if I haze it to the ground."
