Wynton laughed and stood up. “You’re not the only one who cherishes and loves talent. I’m not an idiot, either.”“Then why are you wasting your time talking?” James stared at Wynton. “Go ahead and make a move.”Wynton was taken aback but then laughed again. “Are you not waiting for your wife and that pig to gather more past forms of the living beings in the River of Time?”Ignoring him, James waved his hand, storing away Zella and the surviving past forms.In the next moment, far off in the sky, a beam of amethyst-gold Sword Light flashed by, accompanied by lightning bolts, heading straight for Wynton.With a loud rumble, the Sword Light caught Wynton off guard, forcing him back 100 thousand light-years.Stabilizing himself, Wynton looked up and saw two Jameses.It was evident they weren’t clones or Primordial Spirits; they were both the main selves.“How can this be possible?” Wynton was stunned.James smiled. “As the past form of Waitata, you can control the past of the Grea
In the midst of thunderous explosions, the two Three Treasures Formations spun rapidly, shattering the universes around them.The aftershocks rippled outward. Countless universes reassembled, only to be utterly destroyed again. A significant part of the River of Time crumbled in the chaos.Though the Three Treasures Formations were cracked, both James remained unscathed.Seeing this, Wynton was furious. He extended his hand, causing countless planes to merge into a colossal physical fist, which he then hurled toward the two James.Instead of retaliating immediately, the two James merged into one. The two Three Treasures Formations also combined, their cracks quickly mending.Another explosion rang out.Wynton's fist collided forcefully with James' Three Treasures Formation, denting it."Break it!"Wynton roared furiously, increasing the power of his fist as if he intended to completely shatter James' Three Treasures Formation.However, under James' control, the Three Treasures
Hearing Wynton’s shouts, James smiled calmly.He finally understood why the powerhouses from the unorthodox sects were weaker than Waitara yet could fight against him for countless years, causing him endless headaches.It wasn’t because these powerhouses had strange Supernatural Powers.Rather, it was because they were formed by the Daoisms of the strongest and second strongest Caeloros Gods, Frona and Yefrenes. Their Daoisms had a natural restraint on Waitara’s Waltraud Power.At this moment, the Xwem Chessboard absorbed the Sword Lights that Wynton had shot out, shrunk, and returned to James.“It has been three moves. It’s my turn.” As he spoke, James slowly stood up. “Wynton, I’ll give you one more chance. Surrender and tell me the whereabouts of the other two Soremsias. Otherwise, I won’t spare your life.”Upon hearing that, Wynton laughed, his laughter echoing throughout the entire River of Time.“If I tell you that, will you surrender?”James sighed. A dazzling amethyst-g
“Do you still recognize me?” The captivating figure standing next to James glared at Wynton.“You!” Wynton's face contorted. “How can you possibly appear in Haleth Realm?”“There are many things beyond your imagination,” the figure replied icily. “Are you not convinced after being defeated by James?”“I’m not convinced!” Wynton roared. “You are the Caeloros Supreme of the Path Sect. Surely you noticed the Supernatural Power he used against me wasn’t from the Path Sect, right?“Is this the Chosen One and the Haleth Supreme Path you’ve painstakingly supported?”Frona turned to glance at James and then laughed bitterly.“Waitara Path, even though you are now merely a past form of a Soremsia, your arrogance remains unchanged. In your eyes, Haleth Realm can only have you as its strongest. Anyone stronger must be heretical, just as you cannot tolerate unorthodox factions and sects.”Wynton scoffed. “Stop changing the subject. I merely created a new Daoism, and you wouldn't accept it.
A tall, muscular man in a dark coat and dark glasses walked out from Cansington station, his phone glued to his ear.“Have you got the information?”“Yes, General. The girl who saved you from the fire ten years ago is Thea Callahan. She survived after that, but she’s been badly disfigured due to the fire.”The man tightened his grip on the phone, his expression darkening.It was a hot summer day, but the man had a cold aura around him.Everyone who walked past him shuddered involuntarily.His name was James Caden.Ten years ago, James’ family members were burned alive, falling victim to a scheme against them.A young girl rushed into the inferno and saved him without regard for her own safety.All 38 of his family members lost their lives that night, and the first family of Cansington was no more.After James was rescued, he jumped into the river, as it was the only way to survive.He ended up in the Southern Plains where he became a soldier.Ten years later, he had success
The House of Royals occupied about 20,000 square meters, and it was the most luxurious villa in all of Cansington.It had everything from a garden, a swimming pool, and a golf course.Thea sat on the soft couch of the foyer, looking around at the villa in disbelief. It resembled a palace more than anything.She had known that any man with pride and self-respect would never marry her, much less into the Callahan family back when her grandfather said to find a husband for her.She thought at that time whoever was willing to marry her would be greedy and lazy, coveting her family’s wealth, although she did not know who her husband would be at all.Yet, she had never expected this man who just became her husband would bring her to this paradise.James knelt and lifted her veil.“Don’t…”Thea panicked and shied away. With scars crisscrossing her face and entire body, she was a fearful sight. What if she scared her new husband away? They had not even been properly introduced yet!Ja
None of the Callahans bothered to look for Thea even though she had been gone for ten days.To the Callahans, Thea was the black sheep of the family and the laughing stock of Cansington. If it were not for Thea, the Callahans’ business would be booming.Once Thea had recovered, she picked up her marriage certificate with James and they went home together.Lex Callahan had three sons.According to birth order, they were Howard, John, and Benjamin. Benjamin was shunned by his own family because of Thea. It did not matter that he worked hard, expanding the family business by leaps and bounds.At home, he did not have any rank, status, or authority whatsoever.Benjamin might be a Callahan Group manager, but he had no shares in the company. All he got was a fixed salary each month with no bonus. As such, he was struggling to make ends meet.It was true that he had bought a house, but there was still the mortgage to pay off every month.“This is my home, Jamie.”Pointing to the do
After leaving the Callahans’ villa.Thea was crying. “Jamie, I’m so sorry. I don’t even have any control over my marriage.”James took her hand. “It’s okay. Grandfather has made the statement. If I manage to get an order from Celestial Group, he’ll have no choice but to acknowledge us as husband and wife.”“It’s Celestial Group we’re talking about.” Thea was worried.Born and bred in Cansington, she knew all there was to Celestial Group.Celestial Group was an international company, having broken into the Cansington market just recently. The Great Four basically monopolized Celestial Group’s orders.James only smiled. “We’ll never know if we don’t try.”Thea thought of something suddenly, saying, “Oh yeah, I remember now. An old classmate of mine is working at Celestial Group. In fact, she’s the head of a department there. Let me get in touch with her. She might be able to connect us with the higher management.”“Okay.”Holding hands, the both of them walked home to Thea’s.T
