James did not intend to explain anything. There was nothing to explain.Seeing that James was not explaining, the Hills were more convinced the King of Ginseng was fake.The Hills’ members besieged Thea, and all kinds of nasty words were thrown at her.Gladys was ashamed.They could have gifted anything. Why did they have to present something fake?From her perspective, Thea definitely brought a counterfeit product because of James.She stood up and scolded, “What is your problem, James? Why did you make Thea bring a counterfeit product?”Gladys swung her arm at James.James instinctively dodged it and explained, “Mom, that’s nonsense. Even if the others don’t believe Thea, how can you not trust her?”“Mom, stop it.” Thea promptly pulled Gladys away.Cyrus stepped forward. “Grandma, elders. This probably isn’t fake.”Last night, he had witnessed the head of the Xenoses kneeling to Thea.How could such an influential person present a counterfeit product?The youngsters th
The crowd turned toward the voice.A tall, slender woman in a white dress walked over.“Who?”Everyone was stunned.Who was this woman?Jedidiah, the head of the Hills, stood up and greeted her.“Young lady, who might you be?” he asked.The woman that appeared was Christine.She glanced at the King of Ginseng that was shoved to the floor, walked over, and picked it up.“I’m Christine, the granddaughter of Jay Fallon from Cansington, and also the person in charge of Herbal Biotech. This is indeed the King of Ginseng from Herbal Biotech. I’m the one who gave it to Ms. Thea. Are you all accusing this King of Ginseng that costs a hundred and fifty million dollars to be fake?”She glanced at the crowd.Dozens of people were present at the scene.However, it was dead silent.Why would the person in charge of Herbal Biotech suddenly appear in the Hills’ villa?James was also slightly surprised to see Christine arrive so soon after he had just made the phone call.‘She came incr
The person who appeared was Bjorn.James had ignored him and competed for the thousand-year-old King of Ginseng at the auction.The thousand-year-old King of Ginseng was crucial for the medical conference in Cansington. He needed this thousand-year-old King of Ginseng to defeat Jay and win the title of genius doctor.He reached out to a prominent family in North Cansington, the Yoders.The Yoders' status in North Cansington was only second to the Xenoses and was considered a big household.Bjorn had once won the genius doctor title and was the savior of the head of the Yoders.A day ago, he spoke about the incident of the King of Ginseng that had happened.The Yoders immediately expressed their support to Bjorn to get back the King of Ginseng.Cooper, the eldest son of the head of the Yoders, personally accompanied Bjorn to the Hills’ villa. With them was a gangster boss that Bjorn found from the underworld.His name was Kannon Stone.In his earlier years, he used to mingle a
Before Bjorn and the others could say anything else, Gladys walked over to James while scolding him.“You trash! What did you do? How did you offend these bigwigs?”As she spoke, she raised her hand and swung it at James.James instinctively dogged her hand.Thea came over, pulled Gladys aside, and explained, “Mom, it’s not James’ fault. Bjorn wanted the King of Ginseng, but Christine gave it to me instead. I didn’t expect Bjorn to be such a bad-tempered man.“Haha!” Bjorn burst out laughing after hearing this. “So what if I’m a bad-tempered man? I’ll let this incident go after I break this brat’s legs, you hand over the King of Ginseng, and you stay with me for three months. Otherwise…”He glanced at the crowd.“Otherwise, it’ll be game over for the Hills,” he said indifferently.“I’m here to convey that we stand by whatever Bjorn decides to do. The Yoders will be the first to suppress the Hills, and I can ensure that your family goes bankrupt within a day,” Cooper stepped for
Everyone’s attention turned toward the voice, and another group of people approached from the distance.The leader was a middle-aged man dressed in a suit and who looked like a very successful person.This person was Bryson.Behind him was a long-haired man dressed in a black singlet and a dragon tattooed on his body. This man was Dylan Nell.Another 20 subordinates followed behind him.These men carried stretchers.Many people were lying on these stretchers. They were bruised and groaning in pain.“Who are these people?”The Hills were puzzled.Jedidiah walked over cautiously, seeing that these people wore very stern expressions. “Who are you guys?”“Where’s James?”Dylan ignored Jedidiah and demanded James.Everyone’s eyes were fixated on James.Thea was also confused. ‘What is this about this time?’Dylan seemed familiar to her, but she could not remember where she had seen him before.James glanced at the vicious-looking Dylan and recognized the visitor. This was the
James was nonchalant and did not seem afraid of these unexpected visitors.Bjorn and Bryson glared at James.Bjorn shouted, “Brat, get down now and let me break your legs. Your wife will come with me, and this will be over.”Bryson pointed to his subordinates lying on the stretchers with broken legs and said indifferently, “How can I just let this go? You beat my men and have to pay me two billion dollars to resolve this matter. Since the Callahans don’t have money, the Hills will pay for it. If you don’t pay up, hmph…don’t blame me for the consequences.”The Hills went silent.These bigwigs were all after James, so they remained silent.Jedidiah could not allow such suppression. “Presumptuous!”He stood up and shouted, “This is the Hills’ villa! How dare you be presumptuous in our house!”“Dad, don’t say too much. These are people we shouldn’t mess with.”“Yeah, Dad. It’s none of our business, so don’t get involved in it.”“Dad, do you know who these people are? This perso
In just a few moments, all the employed Hill family members were suspended from work.The Hills members panicked.They shouted and scolded the Callahans with offensive words.Thea also wore a serious expression. How could so many things happen at a birthday party?She kept thinking of a solution.The idea of calling the mysterious Mr. Caden popped into her mind, but she did not have his contact number.“Drag that brat to me,” said Bjorn.The Hills members quickly backed away in fear.Benjamin and David also hid far away.Gladys pulled Thea away. A dozen men dressed in black stepped forward and surrounded James.James glanced at the guests that appeared at the Hills’ villa and said calmly, “It’s not too late for you to leave now. Otherwise, you won’t be able to leave as you please later. Don’t you know the mysterious Mr. Caden who has a great influence in Cansington? He is an existence that is feared by many.”“Haha…“The mysterious Mr. Caden? Not even God will be able to
However, no matter how Cooper knelt and bowed, Chase remained indifferent. He looked at Kannon.“General, this man seems to be running some kind of security company. He said that there are more than thirty thousand employees in his company, and they will constantly harass the Hills family until they wouldn’t even dare to leave their houses,” said James.“Oh?”Chase’s expression darkened, and he said, “I never expected a security company like this to still exist in North Cansington. How dare they do as they please? It seems this company isn’t clean. I’ll have to look into it.”Hearing this, Kannon’s face went pale, and his legs went rubbery. Immediately, he fell to the ground on his knees with a thump.“General, it’s none of my business…”Chase instructed the man beside him, “Call the relevant departments and arrest all these people causing trouble at the Hills’ villa.”“Understood.”The Hills were utterly stunned to watch the scene unfold. Who was this person?Why were the
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
