James looked at Yaretzi and Youcef kneeling before him. He quickly stepped forward and helped them up.“We know each other. There’s no need to be so polite.”“Did you really comprehend the Forty-Nine Daoisms and aim for the Supreme Path before becoming the Lord of the Haleth Realm?” Youcef asked excitedly. Then, he laughed. “Congratulations. The Haleth Realm is fortunate to have you!”Youcef was about to give James a hug when he was stopped by Yaretzi.“Youcef, how can you be so rude? Don’t you have any respect…”However, she didn’t expect James to extend his arms first and give Youcef a hug.Seeing that, Yaretzi was stunned.A while later, James let go of Youcef and patted him on the shoulder.“Your strength didn’t really improve. When can you defeat me?”Hearing that, Youcef scratched his head, a little embarrassed.“You’re already the Lord of the Haleth Realm. No matter how much I improve, I won’t be your match.”“You aren’t like the Youcef I know.” James shook his head.
“Not bad. I wondered why I couldn’t sense you under the sacred radiance of the Supreme Path.” With his arms behind his back, James walked around Thea. “It turns out you’ve cultivated the Hongrome Body and reached Consummation.“Thea, you’re insane. You’ve gone too far. Are you planning to sell me off and gain a large sum of money that’s difficult to count?”“No,” Thea responded diffidently.Then, she faced James’ sharp gaze and hurriedly lowered her head again, like a child caught making a mistake.“You’re a mother of several children. Why are you still so naive?” James looked at Thea. “Now that Waitara Path’s soul spirit is dead because of you, you and Frona are still thinking of pushing me higher.”Thea pouted and glanced up at James, unable to say anything.“Since you started to cultivate, who have you been afraid of?” James stared at Thea. “You’re bold and reckless. You’re always scheming and making arrangements for me. Why did you change after going to Frona?“Why did you d
Was it a trap?And was it specifically arranged by Waitara?Thea thought about it. The appearance of the Leere Soul-Detection Compass was enough to cause a life-and-death battle in the Xanadu Realm, let alone the Haleth Realm.Based on Waitara’s character and greed, even if he reincarnated, he would hide such a treasure or store it in a place he believed was the safest. How could it be found so easily?It was on purpose. Upon thinking that, Thea shuddered.Then, she stared at James. “How did you notice it?”James gazed at Thea deeply. With his hands behind his back, he turned around.“We have both experienced great storms and died many times. Didn’t you notice that we seem to be pushed by some kind of power, as if everything had been arranged?“From the ancient martial world to Celestial Abode, from the planes to the Dark World, and then to the Genesis Worlds and Zymurgy, as well as the Haleth Realm.“Even though I’ve comprehended the Forty-Nine Daoisms and become the Lord of
Upon hearing that, Thea took two steps back. She hurriedly asked, “What do I need to do? I’ll listen to you. I won’t act recklessly anymore.”James smiled and brushed Thea’s nose bridge. “Don’t suppress yourself and go against who you are. You just need to listen to advice at critical moments.”“What do I need to do?” Thea grabbed James’ arm. “I want to know now, in case I do something wrong again.”James smiled and said, “The first step is to go back to being yourself and watch the fire.”Thea was confused. “What fire?”“The fire of all worlds,” James said, enunciating each word. “Especially the fire of our acquaintances and friends.”Then, James took a deep breath. “I wish our acquaintances could handle the test of this fire and that our friends could pass.”Test all realms?Did James stop trusting his acquaintances and friends too?Gradually, Thea went from shock to calm.Even Jabari and Franciscus, whom James respected the most, had become Xanthakos’ Soremsias. Lyla, who
In the Demon Region of the Genesis World, James and the others appeared on an extremely steep cliff with a few flashes of amethyst-gold light.Looking at the mist-covered mountains, James asked, “Darling, do you remember this place?”“Of course.” Thea, who had a new appearance, nodded. “After reincarnating from the Dark World, I was born here.”James teased, “Back then, you killed a lot of beings from the Timaeus Sect.”Upon hearing that, Thea clicked her tongue. “I still remember someone entered the Timaeus Sect and almost married the saintess.”James was at a loss for words.“What’s happening down there?” Yaretzi asked.“There are so many beings,” Youcef, who also had a different appearance, looked down. “There are still beings flying over from all directions.”Upon hearing that, James, Thea, and Yianni looked over.In the valley below, a group of beings in black robes holding longswords confronted another group in red robes. They didn’t want to let anyone pass. The tension
In an instant, both parties started shouting at each other, gathering and ready to fight.Hearing the commotion below, James looked at Thea. “Maxine and Wyot became founders. They each established a sect and have their own disciples?”Thea couldn’t help but laugh. “So many years have passed in Zymurgy. With their talent, they should have almost reached the Daelcon Rank.”“I have to see this.” James scratched his head. “If Maxine and Wyot have become founders, what about Taran, Cairo, Zavis, and Henrik? What rank should they be?“What about Truett, Xitlaly, Rebella, Adair, Xantia, Lucille, and Wylie?“Let alone the powerhouses who have been famous for a long time in the Genesis World, such as Yegor, Herodias, Celestial Sages, Mattaniah, the Sect Leaders of the Three Great Sects…”“Stop it. You’re like a mosquito buzzing in my ear.” Thea pushed James away. “Everyone knows you have a lot of friends. You’re annoying!”James didn’t refute. Instead, he counted the number of friends an
James and the others turned around and saw a tall, burly man with eyes wide open in anger, surrounded by strong Marciais Power.Behind him were a few beings, all exuding murderous energy, as if James and the others had committed a grave sin.The few divine beings with James were taken aback.“You!” The burly man pointed at Yianni. “How dare you disrespect our god? How can you call him by his name?”He roared and pushed out a fist with Marciais Power. The power transformed into a tiger that ran toward Yianni, but the tiger was instantly absorbed by Yianni’s shield and completely disappeared.Seeing this, the angry burly man was astonished, and the beings behind him were stunned.“I didn’t know the Second Marciais Combat Form could be used in this manner,” exclaimed Yianni.“How dare you laugh at my power.” The burly man exuded extreme Marciais Power and stepped forward to punch Yianni again.Yianni didn’t dodge. Instead, she watched his fist land. There was a sound, but Yianni w
In an instant, James understood what was going on.Yianni had called James by his name moments ago and was overheard by this group of beings.James was known throughout all worlds as the Mortal Emperor who derived the beings’ fates.To the beings, James was not only their god but also their belief and taboo.“Trissie, step down,” the man glared at the beautiful woman in a white robe, Trissie Sierra. Then, he asked Yianni, “You aren’t from the Genesis World, are you?”Yianni smiled bitterly and said, “I used to be from here, but it’s been a long time. I’ve just returned.”“No wonder,” the man said seriously. “You mentioned a name just now. May I know which one of you has Caden as your last name?”Upon hearing that, Yianni turned to glance at James. When she was about to speak up, James stepped forward.“It’s me.”The man asked James to spell out his last name. When James did, the man was stunned. He immediately bowed to James.“I’m Jaime Sadler, the Young Master of Skynet. I p
