After the people left, Tommy immediately went to the box containing the money, took out the stack, and counted them. He scrutinized them and shouted, “Grandpa, the money is real.”

Lex was still trying to figure out who was this Mr. Caden, and why he was so generous.

Tommy put down the money and walked toward Lex. Then, he said, “Grandpa, the only women not married in the Callahans are Megan and Yzabella from Uncle’s side. However, Yzabella already has a boyfriend, and he isn’t named Caden either.”

“Yeah, this Mr. Caden didn’t even state whose hand in marriage was he asking for and sent so many betrothal gifts?” Lex nodded and said.

“It must be for me. I’m so much prettier than Yzabella. This mysterious Mr. Caden is surely not interested in her. He is definitely asking for my hand in marriage,” Megan exclaimed and reacted in excitement.

“Hmm.”

Lex pondered for a while.

Among the unmarried women of Callahans, Megan was the most outstanding one, and he also agreed that the gifts mu

    James returned home.However, the family was not at home, and he did not bring his keys when he left.He was not in the Callahans’ family group chat, so he did not know they were headed to the Callahans’ villa.He phoned Thea.Thea had gone to Longevity Pharmaceuticals and asked Yuna for some orders.She was on her way home after checking the messages in the group chat.“A mysterious Mr. Caden?“Luxurious betrothal gifts?”Thea was taken aback after seeing the gifts Tommy had posted in the family group chat.It made her think of someone for some reason.The ghost-masked man.Suddenly, her phone rang.She recollected herself and answered the phone, “What’s wrong darling?”“Thea, where are you? There’s no one at home, and I didn’t bring my keys, so I’m stuck outside right now.”“I’ll be home in half an hour.”“Okay.”James hung up the phone.Then, he waited at the door.Half an hour passed by quickly, and a beautiful, fairy-like woman dressed in a casual dress appeared

    Lex, who was sitting on the sofa, raised his eyes and glanced at James. “A-Are you really the one who sent them?”James nodded. “Of course.” “Lies! How could you have so much money?” Tommy shouted.“Stop being so shameless, James. Just because your surname is Caden doesn’t mean it’s from you!” Gladys also scolded him.“That’s right. The other party never stated who it was for. Plus, Thea is already married, so it's impossible to be for her. This Mr. Caden must be interested in me,” said Megan.Lex was incredibly uncertain about who the gifts were from. The delivery person did not say who it was for and only said it was from Mr. Caden.“Thea, do you know of any rich man that goes by Mr. Caden?” Lex glanced at Thea and asked.“I-I do.” Thea was stunned for a moment, then nodded lightly.Many people turned to Thea after hearing her reply.“W-Who is this man?” Lex stood up and asked excitedly.James glanced at James and hesitated.She did not know whether she should say it or

    “Dad, are you sure the gifts were sent by Mr. Caden and not Mr. Zavier?” Gladys asked again.She still felt that it was Zavier who had sent the betrothal gifts and not the one whom Thea had saved ten years ago.Lex smoked his tobacco and nodded. “Yes, it was indeed Mr. Caden. It seems it must be that man from the Cadens that Thea had saved ten years ago. These gifts are for Thea.”“I-I can’t accept them,” Thea hurriedly rejected.“Of course, we’re going to keep them! Why not?” David stood up immediately and picked up the limited Ferrari sports car keys inside the gift box.“It doesn’t matter whether it’s Mr. Caden or Mr. Zavier who sent it. It belongs to our family if it’s for Thea,” said David.“What’re you doing? Put it down! We haven’t figured it out yet! How could it be for Thea? It’s surely for Megan!” Tommy reprimanded.“Nonsense! It’s for Thea! We’re going to take them with us!” Gladys shouted.“You’re the one who is spouting nonsense! Who doesn’t know that Thea is marri

    This was not too bad either. “Honey, you have to believe me.” “I believe you.” James looked Thea in the eye and said, “It’s my honor to have married you. Whatever the outcome is, I won’t blame you.” “Sigh,” Thea sighed deeply. Soon, Newton arrived. He arrived at the Callahans’ residence in just half an hour. Knock! Knock! Knock! Just as they were in a heated argument, knocks sounded from the other side of the door. A Callahan answered the door. Newton entered alongside Serena. Upon seeing the visitors, Lex immediately stood up without much thought. The rest of the Callahans followed suit. With a puzzled look, Lex walked toward them with his cane. “W-Who are you?” Newton was unrecognizable. Wearing a black suit, he exuded an air of elegance. On the other hand, Serena was glamorous in her attire. They saw James. However, following James’ instructions, they said nothing. Newton spoke, “I’m from Majestic Corporation.” Upon hearing this, their hearts sk

    With the cops at the doorstep, Howard and Tommy freaked out. Lex stepped forward and glanced at Wyatt. As the patriarch of the Callahans, he had heard of him. “Mr. Jeremiah, could this be a misunderstanding? How could they have committed a professional crime? What have they done?” Wyatt glanced at James. James took a step forward and said, “It was me who reported them to the authorities.” “You?” They fixed their gaze on James. Tommy burst into a fit of rage. “James, you piece of trash! You’ve been leeching off the Callahans since the beginning. How dare you call the cops on me! And on what charges? Just what did I do?!” Howard said coldly, “This isn’t over until you give me an explanation.” Thea pulled at James and questioned, “James, what are you doing?” Everyone stared coldly at James, their gaze filled with hatred. What was he thinking, calling the cops? James turned to face them and replied coldly, “I trust Thea. She wouldn’t do anything that brought shame

    “Forget it.” Lex lightly waved. “Lex, you can’t just ignore this,” Jolie cried out, weeping. “Howard and Tommy have been taken by the police. Even if they did something wrong, how could James call the cops? This is a family affair, after all.” “A family affair?” James said coldly, “Is framing Thea considered a family affair? Fortunately, nothing serious happened. Would you still call it a family affair if people had died?” “You…” Her face livid, Jolie pointed at James and rebuked him, “Who do you think you are? This is the Callahans’ residence. What makes you think you have the right to speak?” “That’s right. You’ve pushed it too far.” “How could you call the cops?” “Why can’t you just sit down and talk this through? It’s nothing serious, after all. Now that the police have arrested them, what should we do if word got out?” “Damn you, James!” The Callahans reprimanded James and Thea, blaming everything on them. Though David was delighted, he believed James had c

    Thea could not retort. She did not know what to say. She pulled James into her room. Meanwhile, the others formed a circle around the betrothal gifts. Alyssa took a beautiful dress and some expensive-looking jewelry and dashed excitedly into her room. She changed her clothes and put on earrings, a necklace, and a ring. “Darling, do I look pretty?” She came out of the room and walked around the living room. David exclaimed, “Wow, you look gorgeous, darling! The dress suits you perfectly.” Upon hearing this, Alyssa was flattered. Meanwhile, Gladys wore a worried expression. She muttered, “Mr. Watson is rich, but so is Mr. Caden. Who should Thea marry?” “She should marry both,” David blurted out. Smack! Gladys smacked him on his head. He instantly shut his mouth and headed toward a box full of cash. “Mom, can I have this?” Gladys glanced at him. “No way. They’ll be kept in safe custody. I’ll be putting them in the bank tomorrow.” In her room, Thea was exasper

    James was puzzled. ‘What went wrong? ‘Did she not agree to it? Why did she change her mind?’ He momentarily froze. Then, he quickly recollected himself and smiled. “I-It’s alright.” As he said that, he got off the bed and spread the mattress on the floor. Thea did not understand what had gotten into her. She felt terrified the moment James kissed her. However, she did not know what she was afraid of. “Y-You can sleep here if you want.” Although she did not feel ready, she still could not bear to see James sleeping on the floor any longer. James said with a smile, “It’s alright. I can sleep on the floor. I’ll sleep next to you when you’re fully ready.” James did not want to pressure Thea into it. In fact, he did not have the right. After all, he would not even be here without Thea. That was why he had decided to support and obey any decision she made. From Thea’s perspective, however, James was mad. “I…” She opened her mouth to speak. However, she was at a loss

    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
