Meeting the Gate Master

Kent walked through a lush garden as he headed toward a magnificent mansion a couple of kilometers away, sitting on a small mountain. 

The path leading to the mansion was breathtaking, so he didn't rush. He was observing everything carefully so he could blend that with his knowledge of modern Earth architecture when building his city inside the tower. 

After walking for a couple of meters, Kent stopped and turned back. 

'That is a long way for someone to speak and be heard as if she were standing beside us,' Kent thought inwardly. 

The Gate Master had spoken, and both he and Zhen heard her as if she were beside them when, in fact, she was far away in the mansion. 

[She is a peak Root Transcendent, Master. Her power is no joke, so something like focused speech isn't much of a strain. Even you can do it, provided your divine sense can reach the target you're speaking to.]
