James had come to defuse the situation. Many lives were sacrificed in the war between the two armies, especially the women’s army. Hundreds of thousands of their soldiers were killed, and only a few hundred thousand were left. All of them would be wiped out if the war continued.The male general looked at James and said coldly, “This war concerns the national affairs between our two countries. It has nothing to do with you. If you know what’s smart, then get out of the way. Otherwise, I’m not going to go easy on you.”James asked calmly, “You’re not going to withdraw?”“What are you going to do if we withdraw?”The male general replied coldly, “Our army will conquer Sangria and take over the country in preparation to unify the world.”From his remark, James could tell that this man’s army initiated the war, and that the women were from a country called Sangria.James asked, “What’s the name of your country?”The male general leered at James disdainfully and replied, “Listen
“Haah!”James sent out gleaming Sword Energy in response to the general’s taunts.The Sword Energy rushed toward the Grand Marshal and was in front of him in an instant. His study armor was unable to withstand the might of the Sword Energy and had started to wear down.Crack!His armor crumbled to pieces in a mere second.Before the Sword Energy even touched his body, the force had already injured him.The Grand Marshal wanted to retreat but was thoroughly subdued by the Sword Energy’s force. He felt like he had been pinned down and that any movement he made would allow the Sword Energy’s force to tear his body apart.He was drenched in a nervous sweat and quickly surrendered to James. “Wait! Don’t do it! I’ll give the order! I’ll immediately order my troops to withdraw.”Hearing these words, James dissipated his Sword Energy.The Grand Marshal of Korinth heaved a sigh in relief. He reached out his hand to wipe the sweat on his forehead. Then, he glanced at James and instructe
James really was just passing by the area.The Sangrian Army would have been wiped out today if he had not happened to pass by the battlefield.“Thank you.” The female general expressed her gratitude.She attempted to get up but had not fully regained her strength. As soon as she moved, an excruciating pain spread through her body. She inadvertently let out a painful groan. Seeing her struggle, James said, “I might have saved your life but, your injuries were pretty serious and haven’t completely healed up. It’s best you rest for a while.”“Mhm.” The female general from Sangria nodded lightly.James looked at the other female soldiers sitting the in the distance, and his curiosity was piqued. He asked, “Why do you only have female soldiers? Are there no men in your country?”Hearing this, the female general was shocked.Looking at James perplexedly, she asked, “Have you never heard of Sangria before?”James shook his head and said, “I’ve been cultivating in the mountains an
The reports came in one after another.The Empress had a solemn expression as she was brief on how their troops were faring.Immediately, she issued an order, “Get the other three armies to gather in the Imperial Capital and tell them to defend it with their lives.”“Understood.”…At that moment, the female general was on the way back to the country with her 100,000 surviving soldiers.Half a month later, the female general arrived at the Imperial Capital.She kneeled on the ground in the Sangria Palace.“Your Highness, please forgive me for failing to repel Korinth’s troops. Our army suffered heavy casualties during the battle that took place in Yantargh Canyon. This man is the savior who prevented Korinth’s merciless army from wiping us out. Without his help, Korinth’s army might have already reached the Imperial Capital by now.”James stood in the palace hall, sweeping his gaze over the civil and military officials gathered.All of them were beautiful women.He felt entr
After confirming the truth from a variety of sources, the Empress acknowledged that James had indeed saved Sangria’s remaining soldiers and temporarily averted their crisis by preventing Korinth’s attack on their country.It was common courtesy in Sangria to repay the kindness shown to them.Since James had saved their country, they wanted to show their gratitude.However, the Empress did not want James to remain in Sangria for an extended period of time because she was afraid he would find himself in a dangerous situation or die abruptly because of the curse.The Empress did not want something bad to happen to James.James was immediately intrigued after hearing the Empress bring up the topic of the curse. He could not contain his curiosity and asked, “Your Majesty, what kind of place is Sangria? Why has a curse that prevents men from living here for an extended period been put on the country?”The Empress doubtfully shook her head and said, “I don’t know too much about the spec
‘Are there still cultivators who aren’t unaware of the different points in history?’James thought for a bit and suggested, “How about you tell me about Sir Galileo and this world instead?”The Empress replied, “I already told you many past records have been lost with time. Very little information about Sir Galileo and this world still exists. Moreover, most of them are only legends passed down by the older generations. I can’t say for certain how reliable they are. All the existing records don’t contain information about Sir Galileo or this world.”“I see.” James rubbed his chin.After listening to their long stories, they were only legends in the end and were not necessarily true.“Since you’ve saved our country, I’m very grateful to you, Sir. Please let me know if there is anything you desire. As long as it’s within our country’s capabilities, I’ll definitely fulfill your request.”James waved his hand and said, “I didn’t save Sangria expecting a reward in return. I was simply
Everything was so out of the ordinary.What kind of place was this?Why did he arrive here in the first place?“You’ve already been in our country for half a month, Sir. For your safety, you should leave as soon as possible. You’re going to die if you don’t leave,” the Empress earnestly reminded him.James gently waved his hand and said, “It’s fine. I feel alright and don’t believe in curses, nor do I think that something bad will happen to me.”“Sigh.”Since James insisted, the Empress could do nothing to dissuade him. She had seen many others like him.Many men on their planet refused to believe in Sangria’s curse and would come to test it out themselves. Eventually, all of them died.James beamed at her. “You don’t have to worry about me, Your Majesty. I’ll leave the moment I feel the slightest bit of discomfort here.”Hearing James’ reassurance, the Empress was relieved.James stayed in Sangria Palace for the time being, waiting for the Empress’ subordinates to acquire
The Empress replied, “Go on.”The female soldier replied, “Your Majesty, Wushua’s envoy, has arrived.”The Empress’ face immediately lit up with joy, and she hurriedly said, “Invite her in right away.”Wushua was another powerful country on Galileo, and they were only slightly inferior to Korinth in terms of strength.“Please come inside, Miss.”Soon, a woman walked into the palace hall. She was a beautiful woman wearing a white dress. Her pretty face carried a sense of dignity and nobility.She walked into the main hall and arrived before the Empress. However, she did not kneel. Instead, she said pompously, “Xianna Sadie, I’m an envoy from Wushua. How dare you not personally welcome me?”The Empress smiled faintly in response and ordered her servant, “Please provide her a seat.”Soon, someone brought a chair for the envoy.Wushua’s envoy sat down and crossed her legs.The Empress smiled at her. “Is there a reason Wushua has sent an envoy here to Sangria?”The envoy smiled d
