Faced with this sudden change of events, Yadira instinctively took two steps back, her guard up.Wyot looked directly at Yadira and said coldly, “You don’t need to find so many righteous excuses. Others might not know you well, but I do.”“You…” Yadira looked at Wyot, lacking confidence.“You harbor hate because of unrequited love. Hence, you’re using our race to exact your revenge and vent your anger,” Wyot angrily approached Yadira.“Who do you think you are? Just because you’ve been with the Chancellor for so many years, you think you’re her spokesperson now? How dare you give orders, act arrogantly, and sow discord within our Dooms?”With Wyot’s roar, Yadira was frightened and retreated repeatedly, her face turning pale.Wyot raised his hand, pointing at the high-ranking members of the Dooms. “And you all, how dare you mention the Greater Realms War and claim to be the main force? Have you no shame?”As soon as these words came out, the Dooms’ high-ranking members lowered th
Outside the Doom Ancestral Hall, the man's murderous aura permeated the air. The sky turned blood-red, and a chilling, terrifying force swept into the hall.The 200,000 Chaos Warriors surrounding the hall trembled under the pressure. Their armor, helmets, and weapons cracked and shattered, scattering across the ground.The terrifying sight frightened all the Dooms' high-ranking members present in the hall. Their faces turned pale, their legs trembled, and they knelt and kowtowed in fear, not daring to raise their heads."Seraphon War King, Clayton Sindward!" Yadira glanced outside and murmured. Then, as the force poured into the hall, she fell to her knees.After a moment of shock, Wyot raised his head and closed his eyes in despair. He understood that the matter had really gotten out of hand.James and the others sat motionless in their chairs, allowing the terrifying aura to permeate the entire hall.Thea quickly activated a Hongrome Shield around Thora, protecting her from the
With a scream, Jaime immediately collapsed to the ground. He slowly rose in pain, rubbing the spot where he had been kicked, and muttered, “You always kick me on the same side, old man! Can’t you pick the other side next time?”Upon hearing this, James and the others sitting on the chairs exchanged glances and then burst into laughter.Clayton rolled his eyes at Jaime and asked irritably, “You’re Skynet’s Young Master, so why are you in the Dooms’ territory?”“I…”Clayton glared and continued, “Are you here to sow discord and gloat over their misfortune? Are you trying to meddle in their internal affairs to gain information for Skynet?”Jaime frantically explained, “No, of course not! Do you really think I came to this stinking place of my own will? I’m here because…”His voice trailed off as he glanced toward James’ group, swallowing whatever he had left to say.Clayton, still irritated, said, “Alright, get out of here. You were almost trampled into a pulp by an army of two hun
“No, this…” Youcef was about to speak when Yaretzi interrupted him.Yianni frowned and sent a telepathic message to James. “Is someone impersonating you?”James narrowed his eyes but did not respond. He had a feeling someone might impersonate him, but the timing caught him off guard.Even a powerful individual like Clayton had been deceived, and close confidants such as Rebella and Truett were fooled. The impersonator had done an impressive job.James wondered, ‘Could this be the life-and-death tribulation involving betrayal that Silver had mentioned?’Thea, who had been supporting Thora, said, “We’ve admired Emperor Caden for a long time. Would it be possible to introduce us? Moreover, the affairs of the New Shahrzard Dynasty involve my friend. We’d like to see if Emperor Caden is as selfless and righteous as the rumors suggest.”Wyot, brimming with excitement, suddenly turned around to look at James’ group.“Mr. Clayton, these are some seniors that Skynet’s Young Master has br
Looking at the neatly lined-up armored guards, James and the others frowned simultaneously.“Wait outside the palace. Anyone who dares to move will be killed without mercy,” Clayton ordered, directing his words toward Yadira and the Dooms’ high-ranking members.Shortly after, a group of guards at the Ninth Xaeclon rank rushed over and surrounded them.Yadira was anxious but hesitated to speak.“My guests, please come this way,” Clayton addressed James’ group, making a gesture of invitation.After looking at Thea, James smiled faintly. “Thank you for the hospitality.”With that, he took the lead and ascended the stairs. Thea, Yaretzi, Yianni, Youcef, and Wyot followed him.As they stepped into the golden palace, a series of explosions suddenly sounded on both sides.James and the others were startled by a full 81-gun salute. Then, on the red carpet in front, a handsome man in a purple robe, accompanied by a woman, hurriedly came to greet them.“My name is Truett. I welcome you
Truett and Rebella exchanged glances, fully grasping the implications of James’ words. They motioned for James and his companions to proceed further into the hall.Once James and his comrades were seated, Truett and Rebella took their places on the elevated platform.Truett commanded, “Mr. Clayton, summon the Thirteen War Kings.”Clayton turned, his voice echoing with authority, “The Grand Steward summons the Thirteen War Kings!”Immediately, several Bohnwer Lights flashed outside the hall. The war kings of the empire, renowned for their formidable strength and high status, began to enter the hall one after another. These figures were James’ former acquaintances and family, now holding significant power within the Jademora Empire.As the war kings stood side by side in the hall, their eyes fell upon James and his companions. Strangers were rarely seated in the sacred golden palace, a privilege typically reserved for only the highest-ranking officials.Both groups observed each ot
Maxine sneered, “What else do you need to say? You’re still so shameless even now.”Yadira glared at Maxine and snorted, “To distinguish right from wrong, and to uphold justice, one must have evidence. Does the Ythran War King want to violate Emperor Caden's Daoism?”Maxine’s face darkened. Just as she was about to react, Xatia quickly stopped her.Rubella interjected, “Go ahead, but make sure you give a proper explanation.”Yadira said confidently, “There’s nothing to explain. The Doom Army’s mission is to maintain the Jademora Empire and uphold Emperor Caden's principles. Those who defy the rules will face the wrath of the Doom Army and be wiped out without mercy.”Yadira pointed at Thora. “The New Shahrzad Dynasty refused to participate in the empire’s Wyrth Selection and challenged the empire's principle that no one can be obstructed from participating. It was reasonable for us to send troops to eradicate them.”Her words caused an uproar.Thora cried out anxiously, “That’s
Suddenly, a furious voice echoed from outside the hall. “Since Xezal won’t show up, I’ll handle this race myself!”In the next moment, forty-nine purple-gold Sword Lights descended from the void outside the hall, aiming for the Dooms' high-ranking members.With a deafening rumble, the Sword Lights struck the ground, causing the hall to tremble violently. Over forty of the Dooms' high-ranking members exploded instantly, their blood and flesh splattering everywhere.Those who survived immediately fled in different directions.Faced with the unexpected massacre, Truett, Rebella, and the war kings were stunned. Their expressions changed drastically. No one had ever dared to act out in the golden palace, the highest authority in the Jademora Empire.Meanwhile, James and his companions remained calm, as though they had anticipated this outcome.After a moment of silence, a massive purple-gold Sword Light began to coalesce. It swiftly descended at the hall's entrance, forming into a mys
