Aldrian released a deep breath after seeing Shen Yuan kowtow to him.
'As expected.'
Just as he had thought, Shen Yuan was truly one of his followers. There was no other reason for Shen Yuan to have all those feelings while searching for the assassins and trying to learn their origins besides wanting to confirm their true identities.
He knew that his return was already known throughout the cosmos, but only his followers understood the significance of that sign.
Added to that was the commotion he had created in the First Heaven. There was no way any of his followers in the Second Heaven could remain oblivious to it.
The news that no one could descend to the First Heaven and no one could ascend to the Second Heaven must have already reached them. The fact that he was able to ascend to the Second Heaven alone was enough to reveal the reason behind it.
Only the person capable of affecting the First Heaven could ascend at will.
