However, James pulled her back up. "This doesn't concern you, Thea," he said simply. "I was the one that hit her. She can come at me if she wants. I won't let this affect the Callahans."

"Come at you? Alright." Belinda's temper flared at his words. She took her phone out and called the manager of The Gourmand. "Mr. Thomas? It's Belinda Frasier, Gold member of The Gourmand. Someone hit me right outside your restaurant. I need some of your security guards. Now."

Belinda glared at James as she hung up. "You're dead meat. I'm not letting you off, even if you knelt down and begged me to. I'm breaking both your legs today, or my name isn't Belinda Frasier!"

Gladys rushed forward to try to appease her.

"I'm really sorry, Miss Frasier. This is all my good-for-nothing son-in-law's fault! I'll apologize for him, so please forgive us! Just pretend we farted!"

Gladys was terrified.

Getting a portion of the family's shares was a once-in-a-lifetime feat. She definitely wanted to avoid angerin

    The Blithe King of the West. Commander of the army on the western border. He was a man above all, a figure with near-unparalleled power.His aura emanated powerfully as he approached.The outside of The Gourmand was quiet as everyone held their breaths.This was the Blithe King, the new commander-in-chief of the five armies!They had only ever seen him on screens. Now that he was here in person, they were so shocked at the sheer command his presence demanded that they did not dare to even move.Niel and the security guards remained on the ground, trembling slightly.Gladys had been sobbing on the ground but went quiet when she saw the Blithe King, not daring to even breathe too loudly. She had seen the news. She knew this was someone even more terrifying than Trent Xavier. Belinda, too, held her breath in fear.Everyone was intimidated. Only James seemed calm.He had met the Blithe King once, back when he was appointed commander.Surprise flashed across the Blithe King's fac

    Benjamin was about to say something when Gladys beat him to it. “Oh, now you want to talk? What were you doing earlier on, cowering in the corner? It’s so embarrassing being your wife. I want a divorce!”There was a crowd at The Gourmand’s entrance.However, none of them were interested in their family argument. Their minds were still on the Blithe King.“The Blithe King’s succession ceremony is in five days.”“Oh, yes. I heard that it’ll be held at Cansington’s military region. Apparently, the ceremony will be open to the public, but only the most powerful and influential people will receive an invitation.”“That’s what I heard too! Only the true upper-class families who are rich and powerful enough will be able to attend.”“Ah, I bet the only people who will get invited are the celebrities.”Everyone was busy talking about the Blithe King.Not James though. He sat on a chair outside The Gourmand, smoking a cigarette.To save her family, Gladys had embarrassed herself thoroug

    Several people were waiting outside The Gourmand.They were all queueing up to enter the restaurant. Before this, they were discussing the Blithe King. After they heard what James said, the crowd erupted in titters.“The Diamond Room? Looks like the Callahans’ son-in-law is good at something after all—boasting.”“He’s a nobody! He can’t even afford a car. Remember how he used to pick Thea up from work with an electric motorcycle? If he can’t even afford a car, how can he afford the Diamond Room?”“Rumor has it that it’s not enough to be rich to use the Diamond room. The Gourmand’s owner hails from an important family in the Capital. He’s from a true upper-class family. Hardly anybody in Cansington could secure a reservation for the Diamond Room.”“Not even The Great Four could get access to the Diamond Room.”James’ words were a joke to them.Their jeers angered Gladys once more and she rounded on him. “You idiot! Haven’t you done enough?”“Hush, Jamie.” Thea put her hand on Ja

    “You’re right. The Wilkins are so lucky. They have such a dutiful daughter who married a Wilson. Chad and The Gourmand’s owner must enjoy a special friendship.”Felicia and her family were dumbfounded hearing what the crowd said.Chad was confused as well. What was going on? He had only made a reservation for the Silver Room, and he had never seen The Gourmand’s owner before either. Why was he here in person?However, thinking that he had managed to command the attention of The Gourmand’s owner, Chad turned gleeful. He lifted his chin and put an arm around Emily, enjoying the admiring glances from the crowd.Felicia was more arrogant than ever. She even turned around to look at Gladys purposefully, letting out a haughty hmph.Gladys was enraged. She blamed James for all of this, the useless worm.“You piece of trash. Look at them! Look at the company they keep! Even The Gourmand’s owner is here to greet them in person,” Gladys yelled at James, who frowned slightly.Henry never m

    It was astonishing how quickly the tables turned. Felicia, Chad, and their family were now barred from The Gourmand.Felicia was still determined to find a way in. She grabbed Chad, saying, “Chad, you’re from the Wilson family. You have a member card. Show it to him!”Chad approached Bryan once more with resignation, holding out his silver member card. “Mister Grayson, I’m a silver member of The Gourmand’s. Over the years, I’ve spent a few million dollars…”“Beat him up.”Chad’s untimely approach ticked Bryan off as he was busy talking to Thea.A few menacing security guards beat Chad to a pulp.He fell to the floor moaning, “Stop. Please stop.”“Haha.” As soon as Gladys saw this, her anger abated.She held her head high and puffed out her chest, looking pleased as punch.“The Wilkins were boasting all along. It looks like the Callahans are the ones with real power.”“Tell me about it. Thea Callahan is friends with Alex Yates. Now, she’s reserved the Diamond Room. Even the ow

    “But I don’t even know him.”James smiled. “Hmm, I have no idea what’s all this about then.”“Who cares who he is? Let’s eat. Oh, wait… Let me take a few pictures and post them up. My followers would go crazy!” David took his phone out and started snapping pictures of everything.Soon, the food arrived.Beautiful waitresses presented course after course.Whether in terms of presentation, taste, or smell, the food served was extremely appetizing.The tables were soon full of delicious food. Once all the food arrived, a group of women started dancing on the mini stage in front of the room.They were so attractive that Benjamin and David could not take their eyes off them.Throughout the meal, the Callahans were in a state of shock.There was so much food in the Diamond Room that they could not finish. In fact, they barely ate a fraction of it.“Oh no…” Gladys came to a realization after she finished eating, smacking herself in the forehead. “I heard that eating at the Diamond R

    After finishing their meal at The Gourmand, the Callahans left in a daze.Belinda had ripped the bandages off Thea’s face. After leaving The Gourmand, James took Thea back to Common Clinic, where he started to prescribe some medicine for her again.Thea sat down, looking at the VIP card that was made of diamonds. Then, she looked at James, who was absorbed in his task. She was dazed. Whatever happened today still felt surreal. She did not know Bryan Grayson.Yet Bryan Grayson had given her a diamond card.The diamond card had several privileges, including a ninety percent discount and three free chances to dine in The Gourmand every month. How was it different from eating for free?Soon, James had come up with a concoction.“Thea.”“Yeah?” Thea jerked back to reality.James said, “Come on. Let’s apply some medicine to your wounds. I’m sorry for what happened today. You only got humiliated because I left. I promise it won’t happen again.”“It’s okay.” Thea was used to it. She

    Thea stood in front of the mirror, looking at her perfect face. She was shocked.James had told her over and over again that she would recover, but she was still surprised.His medical skills were nothing short of miraculous.“Jamie, you’re amazing. There are no scars at all even though my face was badly injured.”James smiled. “I can’t take credit for it. It was all Henry. He taught me everything I needed to know.”Thea touched her smooth face. “This formula will be so popular if the public learns of it. Can you imagine marketing this product at a beauty salon? Business would be booming!”James said, “Henry doesn’t care about fame and fortune. All he wants is to live an ordinary life.”Thea pressed her lips into a line. “How odd. How could he not like money?”Knock knock knock.Someone knocked on the door.“Thea, what are you doing? Your grandfather has called for a family meeting. He told us to be punctual. If he gets angry and revokes our shares because we’re late, I won’t

    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
