Winnie’s face bore a cold expression.She held the black scythe in her hand.Black energy emerged from the scythe and gathered together to form a phantom scythe.The scythe was about 100 meters long and exuded devastating power.Even James was shocked and exclaimed inadvertently upon seeing it, “What overwhelming strength.”At that moment, the Korinth Sect’s Patriarch drew upon all his strength and charged at Winnie with the intent to kill her.As soon as he moved, her scythe formed by black energy slashed down at him.The black scythe struck the Korinth Sect’s Patriarch.“Argh!!!” The Korinth Sect’s Patriarch let out a scream.He froze in the air in disbelief as his eyes widened.“Argh! Nooo…”His horrified voice echoed through the sky.As the Korinth Sect’s Patriarch's voice resounded, the black scythe struck his body and the man exploded. He was reduced to nothing in an instant.“What in the…?”In the distance, the chancellor trembled in fear and stumbled backward upon
James only gave Winnie a light scolding.However, these issues were his to settle, and he did not want to sully Winnie’s hands in the process.Winnie put away the Scythe of Judgment, and her expression returned to normal. She looked at James and stuck out her tongue, saying, “You’re not going to reprimand me for going into battle without your order, are you?”James wanted to scold her but could not bring himself to do it.“You had better not act like this again.”“Alright, I understand.” Winnie nodded obediently.The Korinthian Army suffered heavy losses.Winnie’s effortless onslaught with the Scythe of Judgment caused the deaths of several million soldiers.After witnessing the ruthlessness of Sangria’s forces, the chancellor lost all desire to fight back.Suddenly, James appeared in front of Chancellor Ylfioss.“You…”Ylfioss was frightened of him and instinctively backed away from James.James stared at him and said coldly, “Sangria doesn’t wish to be anyone’s enemy, but
James said smilingly, “The world is vast, and contains many wonders. What’s so strange about her? Sangria is considered one of the biggest countries in Galileo. It’s quite common for powerhouses to have stayed hidden during their time as soldiers.”Walganus frowned and said, “What I’m suspicious of is her weapon.”James looked at Walganus and asked, “Oh? What’s wrong? Do you recognize her weapon?”“I think so, but I can’t be sure yet.”“Where’s her weapon from?” asked James.“Forget it. You wouldn’t know even if I told you.” Walganus did not choose to elaborate. Since it was a weapon from the Primeval Age, he figured James would not know anything even if he explained it to him.Afterward, James continued to stay in Macchia City.This time, the Korinthian Army completely withdrew their troops from the Yantargh Canyon and returned to their base in Korinth.The chancellor kneeled in Korinth Palace’s main hall and reported the details of their battle.After Korinth’s Emperor heard
Korinth’s attacks on Sangria attracted the attention of all the countries on Galileo.After the Korinth Sect’s Patriarch was killed, the matter came to an end.Powerhouses all over the planet were shocked by the strength Sangria had displayed.“Sangria is a powerful country.”“I never expected a powerhouse that could easily take down the Korinth Sect’s Patriarch would exist in Sangria.”“I heard legends of a fated one in Sangria passed down from ancient times. It’s rumored he has finally appeared. This person is immune to the country’s curse and is destined to obtain the treasures hidden in the Crepe Myrtle Sword Pavillion and in Sangria.”“The fated one must be Sangria’s new Emperor, James Caden.”“Didn’t Sangria just announce they’re looking for the Crepe Myrtle Divine Sword and Sangria’s Imperial Jade Seal? They’re rewarding anyone that provides information about the two treasures.”Peace was momentarily restored in Sangria.Cultivators all over the planet discussed Sangria
“Cut to the chase,” Xanthe said coldly.Walganus said, “I want to know more about the Crepe Myrtle Divine Sword.”Xanthe said, “The Crepe Myrtle Divine Sword was lost a long time ago. It’s already been more than billions of years since it went missing. How am I supposed to know about something that far in the past?”Walgsanus was reluctant to believe Xanthe’s words.“I’ve got a feeling that you know more than you let on. I’m doing this for your own good, Xanthe. After I find the Crepe Myrtle Divine Sword, I’ll be able to lift the curse on the Crepe Myrtle Sword Pavillion and obtain the Ancestral Sword Master’s swordsmanship inheritance. Not only will the curse on Sangria be lifted, but the seal on this world can also be undone.“When that time comes, the lifespan of this world’s inhabitants can exceed one million years. All I’ve been doing has been for the sake of this world.“I want you to tell me everything you know.“By the way, I also brought some good news for you. After Ja
Sophie helped James to obtain a clue about the Crepe Myrtle Divine Sword’s location.“Since the Crepe Myrtle Divine Sword’s existence is linked to the many mysteries of this world, it should be a weapon above the Grand Emperor Rank. Since I’m not a Grand Emperor, I can’t pinpoint its exact location. All I could glean is the fact that you’ll have to travel to the Seafolk’s territory.”Sophie could not deduce the specific location of the Crepe Myrtle Divine Sword but at least found a lead. This was more than enough to help James.James said gratefully, “Thanks, Ms. Sophie.”It would be much easier for James to find the Crepe Myrtle Divine Sword with a hint about its location.He hurriedly left the Celestial Abode and returned to Sangria Palace. Then, he sent a subordinate to look for General Quinella.James sat in a lotus position on a rock in the palace’s backyard and looked into the distance.Soon, Quinella walked over to him.Surprisingly, she was not dressed in armor today bu
James did not explain much to Walganus. Instead, he said, “Just wait patiently.”After leaving Walganus with a few words, James returned to his room to rest.Meanwhile, Quinella had begun using Sangria’s intelligence networks to inquire about the Seafolk.The Seafolk were shut off from the rest of world. Most of them avoided revealing themselves, but there were a few exceptions to that rule. Although it was very uncommon, a few of them still wandered around the planet.Galileo was abundant in cultivators. Some of them would travel to the oceans to look for treasures. As such, some would accidentally trespass into the Seafolk’s territory.Ten days passed in the blink of an eye.Quinella had gathered some information about the Seafolk.“Your Majesty.”Quinella kneeled on one knee.James gently waved his hand and said, “Alright, you may rise.”Quinella stood up with James’ permission.“Do you have any news about the Seafolk?” asked James.Quinella nodded and replied, “Yes, Y
James was worried that Korinth would send troops to invade Sangria again after he left.Therefore, he brought two people out of the Celestial Abode to secretly protect the country.With the two powerful women who were at the Sage Rank’s Fifteenth Stage, it would be impossible for Korinth to conquer Sangria regardless of how many troops they sent.After ensuring Sangria’s safety, James waited for Walganus to come to see him again.Walganus reunited with him in a few days after.The Crepe Myrtle Sword Pavilion’s new Sword Master, Yanina, accompanied him.Yanina had elegant features and looked extremely skilled. She came in wearing a purple dress.“James, let me introduce the both of you to each other. This is the new Crepe Myrtle Sword Master, Yanina Hailety. Before Xanthe left, she passed on the position of Sword Master to Yanina.”Walganus introduced Yanina to James.Xanthe smiled faintly and greeted James respectfully. “It’s an honor to meet you, Your Majesty.”Although Jame
