James scratched his head.

That sounded like a terrible idea since he had no interest in political affairs.

However, the King was a wise man, so the candidate he had in mind must be an esteemed individual.

James was more than happy to pave the way for a wise leader.

“Wealth?” James murmured pensively.

The situation at the Southern Plains had just been quelled, and it would be difficult to accumulate enough wealth within a year.

His only choice was to start from Cansington.

“What did Gloom mean? The wealthy from the Capital, Oceanic Commerce, Five Provinces Business Alliance, and Infinite Commerce?”

James pondered on his words once more.

‘Is he suggesting that I use illegal means to acquire the wealth I need from these people?’

James shook his head and dismissed his thoughts.

He walked back into the ward with the medical book.

“Honey…”

As soon as he returned, Thea looked at him quizzically. “Who were you talking to outside?”

“No one.”

James did not explain himself.

Agree with issues with Thea being both naive and cruel before chapter 700. Nice to see her transformation into some James might eventually deserve. Love James and wish to see him free from obligations and torment. Can see the tenderness he longs to give to that someone special.

    Blake scanned James’ body.“You look much better. Looks like your training has already borne fruit. Don’t forget your promise to teach me the cultivation method.”James said with a smile, “Of course. However, I’m still in the process of learning. After cultivating my True Energy, I’ll pass the method on to you.”“Did you also forget you owe me an antidote?.” Blake stretched out his hand.“Get me a pen and paper. I’ll write the formula for you. You can go grab the medicine yourself.”Blake immediately brought him a pen and paper.James wrote down the prescription for the medicine that would detoxify the poison and handed it to Blake.Blake took it and gave it a quick skim.Countless medicinal materials that he did not recognize were written on it. Since he could not make heads or tails of it, he simply put it away.James then spoke in a more serious tone, “I’ve got a mission for you.”Blake looked at him and asked, “Hmm? What is it?” James explained, “The Emperor has establi

    The news of the Elite Eight defecting had spread from the Southern Plains to the whole country and became an international sensation in a short amount of time.Netizens across the country hotly discussed the matter.James was the one who subdued the Elite Eight. Thus, he naturally became the subject of discussion.The whole country sympathized with James.It was a pity their justice system could not see the virtue in what he had done. Otherwise, he would have become a living legend. James stayed in the hospital the entire day, still studying the medical book. After learning about the news, his lips curved in a faint smile.“Darling, the Elite Eight have defected from the Black Dragon Army.”Thea was bored while lying in bed.Although James stayed behind to accompany her in the hospital, he hardly spoke to her. She kept looking for an opportunity to talk to him. When she saw the news on her phone, she brought it up and tried to use it as a conversation starter.Immediately whe

    Newton slowly apprised James of the situation in Cansington.“Also…”Newton said, “Recently, a new pharmaceutical group called Centennial Corporation was established in Cansington.”“Huh? Centennial Corporation? Who’s behind them?” James cocked his eyebrow.Newton shook his head. “I don’t know. They’re currently rising in popularity for launching several new medicines that have garnered unanimous praise from consumers. Moreover, they’ve gained quite a following on Medical Street. They have countless well-known doctors supporting them, including Jonathan who lost to you in the last medical conference.”Hearing that made James realize something.‘If I’m not wrong, the boss behind Centennial Corporation is the Emperor since Jonathan is his accomplice,’ James voiced his speculation out loud.“Centennial Corporation? A hundred years? Is this a reference to their plan a hundred years ago?” James murmured darkly.He knew the Emperor was trying to conquer the world with Gu. It was a sc

    James was incredibly indecisive.He really had not wanted to cause trouble for Quincy.Nevertheless, he hoped that she would help him.“Let me in on the details. What do you need me to do? Also, I’m not going to help you for free. There’s a limit to how much I provide for free.” Quincy smiled cheekily.James thought about it for a moment and said, “I’ll find a way to get the money first. You should spend the next few days preparing to set up the company. When I’ve sorted things out on my end, I’ll contact you for the next step.”Quincy nodded. “Alright. That’ll do.”She stood up and glanced toward the hospital.Quincy wanted to visit Thea but knew that Thea still held some animosity toward her, so she decided against it.She waved her hand as she walked away. “I’ll head back first.”James watched as Quincy left. After leaving, he stood up and walked back toward the hospital.“Money, huh?”James began to worry about the money.‘I need money to start the business.‘However,

    If this happened while James was still the Dragon King, he’d have outright refused.However, he desperately needed the money now.“Please consider it a debt I owe you, I’ll definitely pay you back as soon as I’m able to. As for Cynthia, give me some time. I’ll be able to cure her completely very soon.”James was confident in the Crucifier’s ability.As long as he could cultivate True Energy and use it, Cynthia’s illness would be as good as cured.“Alright. Then I’ll come meet you in Cansington tomorrow.”After coming to an agreement with Zane, James ended the call.He sighed in relief after hanging up.Fortunately, Zane was still willing to help him. Otherwise, he would not have known what to do.After resolving the issue of finances, he walked into the ward.Newton and Serena turned and greeted him. “Mr. Caden.”James nodded his head in response.Newton picked up a plastic bag on the table and handed it to James.“These are the drugs recently launched by Centennial Corpor

    James turned around and left.The director shouted behind him, “Lydia is a decent woman! She’ll make a lovely wife!”James ignored him and returned to Thea’s ward.Running around the hospital the whole night had exhausted him. He lay back against sofa and gently massaged his temples.While he was taking care of his business, Thea did not sleep at all.“Honey, can you come over and have a conversation with me?” Thea tried once again to talk to James.James raised his head and looked at her.Seeing her hapless expression on her face, he sighed. He felt bad for Thea and wanted nothing more than to protect her with his life.However, he did not have time for that right now.James moved a chair over and sat beside her bed. He held onto her hand and said, “I’ve been really tired lately and don’t have the energy to spend on a conversation. It’s not that I’m ignoring you, so don’t take it personally.”Thea started sobbing and said, “Honey, let’s go get married again once I’m discha

    “I’m at the Military Hospital.”“Okay, we’ll come over right away.”After James informed them of his location, he put away his phone and fell back into his thoughts.Zane and Cynthia arrived shortly after.James was still sitting on the staircase at the inpatient ward’s entrance when they arrived. “James!”An excited voice came from close by.James came back to his senses and raised his head.A girl in her 20s dressed in a white dress ran up to him cheerily. Her long black hair danced with the breeze as she rushed to him.Soon, she stopped in front of James.James stood up and greeted her, “Cynthia.”Cynthia’s beautiful face held an expression of delight. She clasped James' hand and beamed brightly at him. “I finally get to see you again after so long! How are you getting on? Are you doing better?”James uttered gently, “Nothing much has changed, but at least I won’t die for the time being.”A few moments later, a burly man caught up to them.“Mr. Dawn,” James greeted hi

    That entire discussion completely drained what was left of James’ mental energy.Nodding lightly at Quincy, he tiredly lay on on the sofa. “Alright. I just close my eyes for a minute.”Cynthia stood up and said, “I’ll help you upstairs, James.”“Okay.”With Cynthia’s help, James was guided to a guest bedroom on the second floor.She left him to rest in the room and gently closed the door. Then, Cynthia headed downstairs.She plopped herself on the sofa next to Quincy and grinned cheekily at her. “So, how far have both of you gone?”Quincy rolled her eyes and gave a terse reply, “Stop that. There’s nothing between us.”“Pfft. Do you think I’m stupid? You literally look at him with lovestruck eyes.” Cynthia pouted, mildly disappointed at Quincy’s blase response.Quincy sighed softly.She stopped herself from considering a future with James and what that would look like. She knew that while Thea still clung to him, it was impossible for him and Quincy to have a happy ending.Seei

    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
