Quentyn shook his head and explained, “No, that’s not how it happened. Xanthakos did indeed save us and spared us from death. However, since we were freed, he forced us into submission. We had to comply with his arrangements, hide the truth, and complete his tasks.”James inquired, “What tasks?”Quentyn looked at Quintuis and urged, “You should explain.”Quintus took a deep breath and said, “We were asked to train immortal warriors for him and put together a powerful army to help him overthrow Zymurgy, seize control of the Forty-Ninth Heaven, and claim the Wuia Palace to return control to mortals.”James looked at them thoughtfully. After a moment, he waved and said, “Rise and speak.”Quintus and Quentyn exchanged glances, expressing their gratitude before slowly rising from the ground.Observing their bloodied and gravely wounded state, James waved his hand, casting two beams of light that promptly healed their injuries.Witnessing this miraculous recovery, Quintus and Quentyn
Harper rolled her eyes and said, “I don’t trust them. Being kind to the enemy is tantamount to being cruel to yourself. It will only become invite more trouble…”James interjected, “I believe them. It seems they are concerned for the Greater Realms’ living beings. That alone is commendable, and I respect it.”Quintus and Quentyn were overjoyed. Meanwhile, Harper glared at James with hostility, as if silently conveying, “You’re so naive, it’s almost laughable.”James asked, “By the way, Lord Goyois an Alcide being, correct?”Quintus and Quentyn exchanged glances, then nodded in response. James said, “As expected. Alright, although I trust your intentions, you can’t stay with me inside the Gate of Mystery.Quintus and Quentyn grew anxious. Before they could express their worries, James waved his hand and stopped them.“Xanthakos summoned you two not to confront me, but to fight Lord Goyo’s faction for the Forty-Ninth Heaven.”“Though Xanthakos is despicable, he is part of our ki
“Those were really strange flames, James. It resembled the handiwork of hidden emperors,” said Hankin.James put his hands behind his back and said smilingly, “Naturally, you all will be leaving the Gate of Mystery. However, it will be discreetly, in a manner imperceptible to any.”The group’s eyes widened at his words, and immediately quired, “When?”James looked at them and replied, “Right now. However, you can’t leave with your true appearance. Instead, you will have to disguise yourselves as Marauder Warriors. I’ll help to conceal your auras.”With a wave of a hand, James summoned black and white lights around Morgott, Lesia, and Yianni.The trio immediately transformed and assumed the appearance of the Marauder Warriors. At the same time, their original auras were hidden.Lesia, Morgott, and Yianni were astonished by their altered appearances.James instructed, “Remember, you’re Marauder Warriors from this point on. Mimic the other Marauder Warriors, and don’t expose yoursel
James laughed. He looked at the formation that was formed by many Marauder Warriors outside the Nothingness Formation. “Can you tell who’s Lesia, my teacher and Morgott now?”Hankin and Harper shook their heads, looking in the direction of James’ gaze.“That’s right.” James said, “We aim to make Xanthakos and Lord Goyo suffer losses. Then, we’ll take the benefits. We must take action at the right time.”“The situation in the Gate of Mystery is different from the outside world. If we take action early, we will be killed by Xanthakos and Lord Goyo. We will lose. If we take action late, once the Path Designation Bead falls into the hands of Xanthakos or Lord Goyo, we will become passive.”“At this time, we must have a few reliable people to leave the Gate of Mystery and blend in with Xanthakos’ sect. We need the right time to affect their process. In this way, we can gain more benefits by doing less.”Upon hearing that, Harper said, “I agree with you, but I don’t think you should bel
“I think the Divine Emperor is playing tricks on us. The Twelve God-Kings, Eighteen Emperors and Marauder Army of One Hundred Thousand Warriors are almost half of Xanthakos’ faction’s power. Can he really return them?”Quentyn smiled. “Quintus, when you faced the Divine Emperor just now, your attitude was different.”Upon hearing that, Quintus said angrily, “I still can’t figure out what the Divine Emperor wants to do. He said he was doing everything for all the living beings, but is he really…”“Quintus!” Quentyn opened his eyes. “The Divine Emperor is testing us. If we can’t pass this level, he won’t accept us, let alone believe us.”Quintus opened his mouth. When he was about to speak, he saw a ray of Sword Light heading toward him. It transformed into James. He quickly went up to the latter and pleased him.Nonetheless, Quentyn didn’t move. He was still sitting in the flame.James refused to listen to Quintus’ praises. With a smile, he said, “Everything has been arranged. I’m
In Qadeer Temple of the Forty-Nine Heavens in Zymurgy, Xanthakos sat on a zafu in mid-air. He was surrounded by Bohnwer Light. He looked holy.In front of him was Thea sitting on a blooming sacred lotus. The lotuses behind were dazzling. They were eye-catching and holy.It was the first time in Qadeer that two powerhouses confronted each other without other people around.A while later, Xanthakos said, “Yin governor, it’s time for you to give me an answer!”Thea slowly opened her eyes. “If I don’t give you an answer, will I become a prisoner instead?”Xanthakos sighed. “My conditions are reasonable. I’ve given you unprecedented preferential treatment and patience. This is enough to show my sincerity.”Thea smiled and said, “The Human Race which my husband is from has a famous saying. The man is the master outside while the woman is the master in the house. If the husband and wife think alike, everything can be accomplished.”Xanthakos chuckled and said, “But the Human Race has a
In the Daoist Temple of the Forty-Ninth Heaven, the amethyst-gold light flashed with divinity and Dao Energy.Tens of thousands of divine beings were sitting on the zafus. They were all representatives and rulers of various forces from the Forty-Ninth Heaven. Currently, only three gods could gather so many powerhouses. They were Taiyi, Goyo and Xanthakos.The Daoist Temple was the training ground of Goyo.At this moment, Goyo was sitting in a carriage wrapped in a white curtain. He was standing above all divine beings with pride.On the left were Taichu and the nine path kings under him. On the right were the seven war saints of Goyo.Continuing along the left and right sides were the Holiness, Emperors and Sovereigns. They were all transcendent powerhouses.They revealed their true selves one by one. The Ultimate Golden Bodies were behind them. The entire hall was bright. However, in the temple where tens of thousands of transcendent powerhouses were gathered, the atmosphere was
Stavros’ words made everyone present laugh.“Emperor Stavros, have you become dumb because you’ve been beaten up by James? Why would we be afraid of him who is a mere living being?”“That’s right. Emperor Stavros, it’s not that we don’t want to respect you, but as a Path Emperor, you should stand on our side instead of defending an outsider.”“Who’s James? If he was really that powerful, he wouldn’t have been imprisoned in the Gate of Mystery by Xanthakos.”“Emperor Stavros survived the disaster in the Wuinfinite Formation and was saved by Lord Goyo. He’s being cherished so much that he’s no longer courageous.”After Stavros listened to everyone’s mocking, his face turned pale. He was trembling with anger.In the next second, he flipped the table in front of him. Countless spiritual fruits on the table fell onto the ground.Instantly, everyone present was stunned. They got up one after another.At this moment, a beautiful chambermaid in a white robe closest to Goyo suddenly wav
