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

    After leaving the residence, James called a taxi and headed to Majestic Corporation. On the way, he called Newton. “Mr. Quinn, who’s currently in charge of Majestic Corporation?” “That’ll be me, James.” “Got it. Prepare a suit and a mask for me. I’ll be there soon.” Though Newton did not know what James was up to, he obeyed. “Alright, I’ll make the necessary arrangements.” After the call, James closed his eyes to rest. Soon, he arrived at Majestic Corporation. It was an eighteen-story skyscraper. Though it used to be a business under The Great Four, it had been returned to its original owner. After Newton took over, he renamed it the Majestic Tower. This was also the headquarters of Majestic Corporation. Majestic Corporation had only been established yesterday. Although there were rumors about its opening, the company had not officially announced its opening ceremony, nor had it held a press conference. However, news about Majestic Corporation’s hiring activitie

    “Enough about me. Say, where have you been for the past ten years?” “Sigh…” Quincy sighed. “Back then, something happened to my boyfriend’s family. I was devastated and moved to Melpolis with my family. I only just returned. Coincidentally, I heard a member of the Cadens had survived and even managed to take back the former businesses’ of his family from The Great Four. I thought about it and decided to see what it was all about. I applied for the vice president position while at it.” Quincy looked at Thea. “By the way, I heard you got badly burnt while you were saving a Caden from the Cadens’ residence?” “Yes.” Thea nodded. “Who was it?” Drinking her coffee, she looked at Thea. Thea shook her head and said, “I don’t know. He was on fire when I saved him. The situation was dire, and I pulled him out of the fire without having a clear glimpse of his face.” “Did he not look for you?” “He…” Wearing a flustered look, she contemplated and said, “I guess he did.

    In a lavish office on the topmost floor of Majestic Corporation, James had changed into a brand-new suit worth millions of dollars. Serena was adjusting his necktie. Wearing the suit, James exuded a completely different aura. He was a house-husband just a moment ago. Now, he was a man who succeeded in life. “J-James…” After adjusting his necktie, Serena lifted her head and looked at James puzzledly. “Why are you concealing your identity?” James smiled. He did not explain. He did not know the answer to her question. Perhaps he only wanted to live an ordinary life. At that moment, Newton walked in. “James, Ms. Thea is here alongside a woman called Quincy Xenos, who’s here to apply for the position of vice president. She requests to see you.” “Q-Quincy Xenos?” James froze. A figure sprang into his mind. He had just graduated from high school ten years ago. He got to know a girl from school. Her name was Quincy, and they were in a relationship for around h

    James turned to face Thea. She could not take her eyes off him. However, in the instant James turned, she was dismayed. She could not see his face as he was wearing a mask. It was not the same ghost mask from before. Instead, it was a silver mask. It covered his face, and only his eyes, nose, mouth, and chin were revealed. James turned and glanced at Thea. He saw the nervousness in her and gave her a slight smile. “Make yourself at home. Have a seat.” Thea recollected herself and took a seat on the sofa of the office. James took the seat opposite her. “M-Mr. Caden, thank you for everything you’ve done for me.” Thea opened her mouth to speak. Her voice was shaky. Anyone could tell she was nervous. James waved her off. “I would’ve died in the fire ten years ago if not for you. I know you’ve been through a lot over the past ten years. I could never pay back my debts to you.” James was speaking the truth. He could never truly repay his debts to Thea. Thea muster

    James came to Majestic Corporation to meet Thea. After meeting her, he changed into the casual wear he always wore. “This is much more comfortable,” James muttered. He walked out of the office and took the dedicated lift to the first floor. Walking out of Majestic Tower, he stood by the side of the road to call a taxi. At the same time, Thea walked out of Majestic Corporation, dejected. Although she had met the person she wanted to meet, she did not get to see his face. However, he exuded a strong aura. His every word and action could sway the thoughts of others. At that moment, she saw James standing by the road. She froze. “Huh?” Hearing this, James turned. Upon seeing Thea behind him, he scratched his head awkwardly. “T-Thea, you’re here as well?” “W-Were you following me?” Upon seeing James’ flustered look, she instantly understood. Her face darkened. “James, do you not trust me? Is that why you followed me?” James was speechless. Why would he follow

    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
