Bryan walked in the moment Thea took her seat. With a bright smile, he said, “You’ve arrived, Ms. Thea.”

Saying that, he snapped his fingers.

A row of waiters walked in with gifts in their hands.

There were dresses, necklaces, and handbags.

“Ms. Thea, I took my time looking for these.”

Thea frowned.

Bryan had been very friendly to her every time they met. She had refused his gifts many times now.

“Mr. Grayson, how thoughtful of you.” Gladys stood up and accepted the gifts.

“Mom, what are you doing? We can’t accept them,” Thea hurriedly spoke.

Gladys said with a smile, “We shouldn’t let Mr. Grayson’s efforts go to waste.”

“Indeed,” Bryan said, “These aren’t worth much anyway.”

“I’ll accept them on behalf of Thea,” Gladys said with a bright smile.

She had accepted so many gifts that her arms had gotten tired.

After presenting the gifts, Bryan made his way out.

Soon, the food was served.

James did not join in the conversation. Instead, he was busy eating.

    Thea glanced at Zavier with a puzzled look and asked, “Mr. Zavier, did Mr. Caden meet you in private?” “Huh?” Zavier froze and looked at Thea. Could it be that Thea was still unaware of James’ identity? Who was this Mr. Caden that she was speaking of? Was it James? After being momentarily stunned, he nodded. “I-I guess you can say that.” “Whew!” Thea took a deep breath. As expected, it was Mr. Caden who helped her out in secret. What had she done to deserve this? “I’m sorry for intruding, Thea. I know I’m unworthy. I swear I’ll never bother you again.” Saying that, he looked at James. Seeing that James was still gobbling up his food, he said nothing. After bowing, he turned to leave. The Callahans were dumbfounded. Gladys only managed to recollect her senses after Zavier had left. “It’s the mysterious Mr. Caden again. Who exactly is he? Why is Zavier afraid of him?” Puzzled, she glanced at Thea. “Thea, who’s the mysterious Mr. Caden?” “I-I don’t know.

    He rolled over. Thea had her back to him. She was wearing a nightgown. However, it was a slip-dress. Her fair skin was fully exposed. James asked, tentatively, “Honey, do you secretly think I’m not worthy of you?” Thea rolled over. Their gazes met. “Nonsense. I’ve never looked down on you.” James continued, “Do you believe deep down that only someone like the mysterious Mr. Caden is worthy of you?” Seeing that he had seen through her, Thea panicked a little. She hurriedly explained, “N-No such thing. Since I married you, I’m your wife. As long as you don’t betray me, I won’t ever divorce you.” Hearing this, James was touched. He could not restrain the urge to kiss her. Their lips grazed. “Mhm…” Thea struggled a little. However, James did not loosen his grip. In just a few short seconds, Thea’s cheeks reddened. She reprimanded him, “Are you tired of living?” James licked his lips and smiled. “I love you, honey.” Thea blushed and rolled over. James d

    After realizing that the company had thirty million dollars of debt still uncollected, Thea immediately found the relevant documents and scrutinized them. First, she looked through the order agreement between Pacific Group and Purity Pharmaceuticals. It was stated in the agreement that payment would be made with each delivery of goods and would only stop when 50% of the total payment had been made. The remaining 50% payment would only be made after the rest of the goods were delivered and had undergone inspection. Pacific Group had been making Purity Pharmaceuticals’ orders for the first half of the year. However, after all the goods had been delivered, Purity Pharmaceuticals refused to pay the remaining 50%, claiming that something was wrong with the quality of the products. As such, Pacific Group initiated proceedings against Purity Pharmaceuticals. However, Purity Pharmaceuticals was a large corporation and had an established legal team. In court, they presented releva

    “Ah, you’re Mr. Kaffenberger?” Delighted, Thea immediately shook his hand. However, Walter clasped her hand and did not loosen his grip. Thea hurriedly retracted her hand. Walter scrutinized her. She was indeed a glamorous and elegant woman. As expected of the number one beauty in all of Cansington. He heard she had connections with plenty of bigwigs. However, he was undaunted. “Ms. Thea, I heard you’re here on behalf of Pacific Group.” He scanned from her head to her toe with a satisfied look. “Yes, I’m now the chairman of Pacific Group. As there were some disputes between Pacific Group and your company, I believe we should have a talk to straighten things out.” “I see. Let’s go to my office, then.” Walter made a welcoming gesture. Thea did not turn down his offer. She followed behind Walter and headed toward the executive director’s office. Thea took a seat on a sofa in the office. Meanwhile, Walter was seated opposite her, brazenly checking her out.

    Thea left Purity Pharmaceuticals.“Perfect. A gem!” Walter was still immersed in Thea’s beauty and could not return to his senses.There was desire written all over his face.He had long heard of Thea but had never seen her in person. He finally witnessed her beauty for himself today.He took out his phone and dialed a number.“Come see me right now.”Soon, a long-haired man dressed in a yellow t-shirt and with a slovenly appearance showed up with a bright smile. “Mr. Walter, is something the matter?”“Get some men to go to cause some trouble at the Pacific Manufacturing Factory. Don’t go overboard with it. Just do enough so that they’re unable to operate normally,” Walter instructed.“Sure thing! That won’t be a problem!”“Thea, I warned you. You’ll be coming back to beg me very soon,” Walter muttered with a playful smile.Thea returned to the Pacific Group.She was unhappy that she could not get back the money.She prepared various relevant materials and some evidence a

    Gladys sensed that there was something off about Thea.“Thea, what’s the matter? Why’re you frowning?” she asked out of concern.“I’m alright, Mom.”“Alright? It’s written all over your face.”“S-Something happened at the company. Purity Pharmaceuticals owes the Pacific Group thirty million dollars for some goods. I went to Purity Pharmaceuticals today and…” Thea explained helplessly.Thea retold the whole story to them.“Tsk. I never expected Purity Pharmaceuticals to have such a powerful background with both people from the underworld and legal departments. Not only did I not get back the money, but I even got us in trouble.”“Go get help from Mr. Caden. He’s very influential, so it should be easy for him to solve the problem for you,” Gladys said out of the blue.“I-I’ll consider it.”Thea ate in a rush and went back to rest in the room.She was exhausted and did not feel like thinking about these problems for the time being.Meanwhile, James secretly took note of the sit

    Henry did not manage to get an answer and simply drove to Purity Pharmaceuticals’ headquarters.When they arrived, Purity Pharmaceuticals’ employees had already left work, and the entire building was pitch black.“James, it’s almost ten, and there isn’t anyone left. Why don’t we come back tomorrow?”“What tomorrow? Head to Purity Pharmaceuticals’ factory.”“Alright.”Henry turned around and went to Purity Pharmaceuticals’ factory.The factory was located in the suburbs and was quite far away.While they were on the way to the factory, Jake had already gathered 1,000 men and 300 excavators heading there.Jake also had another identity as the genius doctor of Cansington, Jay Fallon.It was impossible for him not to know Purity Pharmaceuticals since he controlled the underground intelligence network.Purity Pharmaceuticals had many shareholders, including a senior official in the legal department.However, the real owners of the company were Infinite Commerce.Infinite Commerc

    With the order, the 300 excavators started moving simultaneously.300 hundred engines began to roar in an instant.Buzz…The sound was deafening like an earthquake, and even the ground trembled slightly.Suddenly, a car quickly approached, and a middle-aged chubby man got out of the vehicle. He stood before the excavator and shouted, “How dare you?!!”The man was Peter Dawson, more commonly known as Dawson.He was one of the most prominent gangsters in the criminal world of Cansington.Following Dawson’s appearance, 3,000 men dressed in black and holding iron rods appeared. They instantly surrounded the 300 excavators and 1,000 people.Seeing that Dawson arrived with some men, Henry asked, “What should we do now, James?”James waved his hand and said, “Don’t worry. We’ll wait for Walter to arrive first. That man has a death wish for being interested in my wife and causing her trouble at the factory.”Factory gate.Dawson glanced at the man dressed in black standing on the fi

    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
