Xara could not understand this. How did James get to know General Highsmith?

Danny? An old friend from the orphanage?

“James, be honest with me. What’s your relationship with General Daniel Highsmith?” Xara asked.

James replied while munching on his food, “General Daniel Highsmith? I don’t know who that is. That guy earlier is a childhood friend of mine. We haven’t seen each other in years. Since we bumped into each other, we decided to have a meal together. Is he a general now?”

“You don’t know?” Xara was rather suspicious of James’ words.

General Highsmith seemed to obey James’ every command and acted according to his wishes.

James went on, “I don’t know. It’s been more than ten years since I was at the Southern Plains. This Daniel… Sorry, Danny. From what I know, this Danny guy went to the Western border. He never mentioned anything about being a general.”

James put his chopsticks down and looked at Xara. “He’s… a general?”

“Yes. Did you not watch the Blithe King’s successio

    After saying that, she turned and left.James was close behind her. Before leaving, he added, “Remember to pay the bill.”“Damn it.”Francis clenched his fists angrily. A hint of disappointment flashed across his somewhat handsome face.“James, you piece of junk. Just wait.”As James had ruined his plans, he was full of hatred for him.James led Xara out of The Gourmand. He put her suitcase in the trunk and drove to the Callahans’ residence.Xara sat in the passenger seat. She wore a silly smile as she scrolled through the photos she had taken with Daniel on her phone.James could not help but comment, “They’re just photos. Is that necessary?”“What do you know?” Xara shot him a look. “General Highsmith is my idol. The Blithe King’s an even greater idol of mine. It’s been my lifelong dream to take a photo with them. Finally, my wish has come true.“With that being said…”She stopped for a moment and glanced over at James, who was driving, before saying, “The person I admire

    Xara was merely throwing words out.She was not hoping to get anything out of it.Even if General Highsmith had known James since he was a child, he was still a general and a person of high status.Moreover, to the Blithe King, he was just a subordinate.He might agree to help James, but the Blithe King himself might not be convinced.Upon hearing James’ words, her eyes gleamed. “Really?”James said with a smile, “Of course. I used to be in the military too. Since you’re so enthusiastic, I’ll come up with something.”“James, that’s great! Thank you.”Xara was excited.The Blithe King was one of the Five Commanders.Although the Blithe King was not the most admired of all, she would be more than content if she got to take a picture with him.James glimpsed at the rear-view mirror.The jeep was still there.He knew that the Blithe King was still tailing him.Xara eventually recollected herself and asked with an upset look on her face, “James, don’t give me false hope.

    The Blithe King unwrapped his arms and walked toward James. “This is a military region. You shouldn’t come here so often. No, scrap that. You shouldn’t be here at all.”He was implying that he did not want to see James, as James often brought trouble along.The Blithe King then got onto a military vehicle and left, leaving behind an astonished Xara.It took Xara some time to process the situation. When the realization hit, she kept gasping for air. She hurriedly made her way to James and snatched her phone from him. “Let me see. Let me see.”She opened the album and saw the photo.In it, the Blithe King had his hands around her shoulders. He wore a compassionate look, almost looking like a loving father.“Ah…” Xara cried.She bawled her eyes out.After all these years, her wish had finally come true.There stood the Blithe King, commander of the Western border and one of the Five Commanders.She crouched down and cried.They were tears of joy.James frowned. It was just a p

    Xara was firm in her belief.James had to be the General of the Southern Plains.James just laughed and remained silent.They reached Thea’s place soon after.Gladys and her family had left early in the morning to settle their car insurance and other household affairs, and they returned home quite a while ago.Thea and Yuna had also just returned from shopping at the Trade City Center.By the time James arrived, it was almost one o’clock.Gladys scolded him as he walked through the door, “How long does it take to pick up a single person? Look at the time! What are you waiting for? Get cooking now!” Ever since James married into the Callahans, Gladys stopped cooking.By now, they had all grown lazy. No one even bothered to prepare lunch, and so, none of them had eaten anything.James carried the suitcase in and put it aside. Upon hearing Gladys’ words, he nodded. “I’ll get to it right now.”Right away, he headed to the kitchen.“Xara,” Gladys greeted her warmly.As Xara wa

    “That’s right.”Lex nodded. “Even if those men only helped Thea because they owed someone else a favor, they’re still considered part of her connections. If we establish a good relationship with them, it’ll surely benefit us. Do you know how much the Callahans have earned by cooperating with Celestial Group? At least tens of millions.” Lex took a drag on his cigarette. “Once Thea returns, we’ll be able to expand our production. We can further cooperate with large pharmaceutical groups such as Celestial Group and Longevity Pharmaceuticals and establish ourselves in Cansington’s commercial city. With this, the Callahans will surely rise..." Lex grew increasingly excited as he spoke.“Bring Thea to me, no matter the cost.”The Callahans had grim faces. They did not want Thea back.Although they had managed to establish stronger connections with Celestial Group because of Thea, they did not want her to return and take the helm of the Callahans as she might make decisions that went

    James' words were met with discontent from the Callahans.Tommy yelled at him, “Who do you think you are, meddling in the affairs of the Callahans?”Megan recalled how James had humiliated her in front of everyone and how she was forced to kneel at Yuna’s banquet yesterday.Upset, she berated him sarcastically, “The remaining three will fall soon? Who do you think you are? Alex Yates? Do you get to decide their fates?”Gladys, too, reprimanded him, “What an embarrassment. Can’t you just keep your mouth shut?”Thea shot James a disgruntled look, insinuating that he should have kept his thoughts to himself.She did not feel confident in leading the Callahans to glory.Becoming an influential family required not just wealth but also strong connections.Lex completely ignored James and fixed his gaze on Thea. “Thea, Listen. I’ll give you three years. If you can transform us into an influential family and grow our assets tenfold within that time, I’ll give you fifty percent of the G

    Lex stood up and invited Thea to sit.The more amicable Lex was toward Thea, the more threatened the rest of the Callahans felt.Lex was old and would probably not live for much longer. They believed this redistribution of shares was equivalent to him dividing up the Callahans’ inheritance.As there were limited seats, the non-core members of the family stood during the discussion.James was standing too, but he could not care less.Lex was seated above. He scanned the group before he spoke, “I’ve summoned all of you here today for two things. First, from today onward, Thea will formally take over the reins of the Callahans and be in charge of every family business as the executive chairman.“Second, we’ll be discussing the redistribution of shares.”Upon hearing this, everyone held their breath. All eyes were fixed on Lex, waiting for his next move.Lex glanced at Benjamin. “All these years, Benjamin has been working diligently. And though he received no shares, he did not com

    Slap!Gladys smacked James on the head. “Watch your tongue. What makes you think you have the right to speak at the family meeting?” She reprimanded him.“Alright, that settles it.” Lex laughed heartily.To set the Callahans up at the Trade City Center was something unthinkable to him. That place was the future Global Financial Center. As such, businesses from Cansington were not the only ones seeking to establish themselves there. All large corporations nationwide would eventually make their way there.If the Callahans managed to set up shop there, it would be a symbol of prestige. Lex could not care less about the hundred million entrance fee.“Grandpa, I…” Thea was hesitant.However, seeing Lex’s delighted face, she did not want to disappoint him. She hung her head. “I-I’ll try.”“Chairman, you now carry the hopes and dreams of the Callahans.”“You have to get us the right to set up shop.”“Worry not, chairman. As long as you succeed in your negotiations, we’ll find a way t

    The sky was a brilliant blue, accented by white clouds. Vast plains stretched out with rolling peaks, rivers, and seas crisscrossing the expansive land, while an aura of Spiritual Energy permeated everything. This was a new world, brimming with life and vitality, existing independently from the myriad realms.Countless cultivation resources awaited discovery here. Unending adventures beckoned the brave, and limitless opportunities awaited those with exceptional talent.This was the new world James had created, based on the Forty-Nine Daoisms and merged with his own Daoism, to resolve the Leere Tribulation and save countless beings across the myriad realms.In this world, there was no powerful Heavenly Path, no hierarchy of races, no strict rules or oppressions, and no fate governing everything. Instead, actions were judged by karma. Fortune and misfortune, as well as success and failure, were determined by karma.Though it adhered to the principle of survival of the fittest and res

    “No wonder,” Lord Goyo finally understood after an extended contemplation.He distinctly remembered that back at the Yin’s Void, Jacopo, the incarnation of Waitara Path’s Soremsia, had abruptly ordered him to move all foundations out of the Dark World. In hindsight, everything now made sense. It was likely that Jacopo had foreseen all of this.Realizing this, Lord Goyo felt a chill run down his spine as cold sweat broke out on his forehead. Despite doubting Jacopo’s identity as an incarnation of Waitara Path’s Soremsia, he had followed his advice. Otherwise, the consequences would have been disastrous.Snapping back to reality, Lord Goyo looked down at the Yang governor and Gladwin from his elevated position.“You fool, do you realize your mistake?”The Yang governor and Gladwin looked up simultaneously, their faces full of fear.“Lord Goyo, I truly didn't notice this. I had no idea when the Dark World was separated.”“Lord Goyo, there is something fishy about this. If James has

    At the peak of Mount One in the myriad realms, the Yang Governor, disguised as James, descended with Gladwin. Both looked deathly pale, as if they had just escaped a life-threatening disaster. They were filled with panic.They stopped simultaneously upon arriving beneath a massive platform in a grand dojo.“We need to sort this out first,” the Yang Governor glared fiercely at Gladwin. “Who's going to explain this later, you or me?”Gladwin swallowed nervously. “Of course, it should be you.”“Why should it be me?” the Yang Governor scoffed. “Haven't you always claimed to be Lord Goyo's top confidant and meddled in our alliance's affairs? Now you're chickening out when there's a major issue?”Gladwin's face twitched. “This has nothing to do with cowardice. It's your duty as the leader of the Path Guardian Alliance.”The Yang Governor laughed in exasperation. “You've always been the one gathering intelligence across the myriad realms, boasting that you're better than Yegor from Skyn

    That was the first thing he asked after surviving a monumental battle. James patted his shoulder. "The twenty thousand men…" "As long as it's broken," Wyot interjected, staring into the emptiness. "It's a pity the Dark World is gone forever."James wanted to respond, but the other survivors gathered around them. After the battle and the aid of the path source, they had ascended to Path Emperors, becoming top powerhouses in the myriad realms.James nodded, then waved his hand, summoning a path pearl that gleamed with holy light. The light and aura it radiated were enough to make any living being kneel before it.Just as James was about to act, Wyot knelt on one knee, followed by his warriors.James frowned. "Wyot, brothers, you have the right to stand…""We will not be Deified until the Leere Tribulation is broken!" Wyot declared loudly, clasping his fists. His warriors did the same."We will not be Deified until the Leere Tribulation is broken!"Their voices were unified, echo

    Then, the Formation of Perception shook violently. When he snapped out of it, he realized that the twenty thousand Doom Race warriors led by Xezal had almost all perished.Among the remaining ones, three were losing their bodies. Hastily, James tossed three path sources into the formation, but it did not stop their bodies from crumbling."Move them out, quickly," urged Zella. "They're under immense pressure inside."James waved his hand and broke the Formation of Perception.Xezal and his remaining warriors—just three of them—appeared in the void. They were tattered and covered in blood. Their hair was unkempt, and they were barely recognizable. These were heroes who had experienced hell.Though wobbling, they stood in battle stances. Their valiance and undying will moved James. He turned his hand and covered them with four path sources, then told them to sit and heal."That's the Doom Race for you. The fact that they survived this titanic battle says a lot about their talent," Z

    "Fourth, I have left some treasures for the Yaneiri Clan. They should be enough to establish yourselves in the new world. Fifth, do not be Deified. Never, ever do that. You must keep the Yaneiri Clan safe."Wynton's body contorted, plunging him into further pain. Cracks spread across his skin. "You owe me, James! You owe my clan!" he roared for the last time in his life before crumbling into dust.The light strips that imprisoned him shattered as well, and purple flames lunged at James' light wall, the shockwaves splintering it into fragments before rampaging toward the inconsolable Zella.James flew to Zella, scooped her up, and they took off. The shockwaves from Wynton's self-destruction rapidly spread, obliterating the surrounding formations.But that wasn't the end. Once freed, the shockwave rippled across the Dark World, annihilating everything in its path. Countless universes met their demise.Meanwhile, James protected the remaining Doom Race warriors within the formation,

    Wynton was hysterical, but James merely shrugged. “Wynton, they say the last act people do before they die is to be kind. I see none of that in you, and you lost to me.”“And so what?” Wynton roared. “You’re just luckier than me, James! You have a Yin governor as your wife, and she has your back all the time! You would never have come this far otherwise!”James smiled. “Keep going.”“I know you don’t want to owe me any favors.” Wynton glared at him angrily. “You gave me three free attacks to repay me for sparing you in the River of Time.“Now, I’ve given you your children’s past selves back, and you owe me once more. You’re waiting for my terms, aren’t you?”James looked resigned.“Wrong,” Wynton sneered. “I won’t ask for any promises, nor will I give you any chance to repay this debt. Now, you shall owe me a favor you can never repay!”James sensed something was wrong and was shocked. “Wynton!”Wynton, imprisoned, began to burn, flames flickering and licking his body. He roare

    "That’s…" The sight of that token filled Wynton with shock. "Y-You’re working with the Shadowborns?""Will you give it to me?" James shot him a threatening look.Wynton shivered, taking a deep breath. Then, a flash of purple light burst forth, and a brilliantly shining mirror flew out from the top of his head.James released Wynton and grabbed the mirror. It resonated with the token, and both items shone blindingly, responding to each other.'It’s true,' James thought. 'The Shadowborn token the master gave me before he left can sense the Nothingness Path Mirror. But why?' Questions swirled in his mind."That mirror will do nothing for you," Wynton said. "I can’t control it, so you can’t either. The only one who can is the Yin governor."He looked at James. "And she’s cleaved in two. Unless you can merge them together, the mirror will not work. However, with just your wife’s half-self, finding Wuia’s current and future selves will be a nigh impossible task."James tucked the mirr

    James remained silent. He couldn't muster a response. Now, he finally understood why the Leere Tribulation had been orchestrated and the role his wife played in it.He had initially thought that by destroying the past version of Wuia concealed within the River of Time, he could hurt Wuia. Even if he couldn't stop the Leere Tribulation, he could at least delay it.With more time, he planned to gather additional clues and eradicate all three versions of Wuia, permanently solving the problem. However, his conversation with Wynton had changed his plans.Wynton observed James standing in silence and smirked. "Of course, there's a way to do this."James furrowed his brow.Wynton, brimming with glee, continued, "Kill your wife and the Light Heavenly Path. If they vanish entirely, Wuia will never obtain the Void Spiral. Even if the Leere Tribulation materializes and he returns, his strength will be no greater than before his reincarnation. You'll have enough power to fight him."That was
