The people involved in the Cadens' perish were core members of the Great Four, and ordinary family members had no access to such secrets.After the Cadens were destroyed, the Great Four never mentioned the incident.However, some rumors spread.Some people claimed that Nicholas took his life out of guilt. He ignited the fire in the Cadens’ villa and attempted to repent for the sins that he had committed with the flames.Some people also said that the Cadens had offended someone of authority and therefore were destroyed. No one knew the truth.However, James issued them a death notice.Kneel for ten days and pay with their lives.How was it possible?These people were filthy rich with hundreds of millions of assets and enjoyed inexhaustible wealth. It was already impossible for them to kneel for ten days, let alone take their own lives.The representatives of the families left Rowena’s ward one after another.Hector, Warren’s eldest son and Rowena’s eldest brother, hurried t
However, even an elite like the lieutenant of the Western Border Patrol was murdered at the Cansington Hotel. How were ordinary people like them going to stand against him?Still, they were willing to take a chance to fight back.They were unaware of the grave consequences that would follow when they failed.The Great Four were thrown into panic, yet the outside world had no idea as it was an internal affair of the Great Four.The rest of the world only knew that the Great Four were in big trouble. The head of the Xaviers, Warren, died tragically at his birthday banquet. Soon after, the news of Trent’s passing spread.After that, the heads of the other three families of the Great Four also died.All important figures from the Great Four were gone.It was major news in Cansington.However, the news was overshadowed by the succession of the Blithe King.Now that the succession ceremony was over, everyone began to turn their attention to the affairs of the Great Four again.“The
Thea’s family left early in the morning.Their goal today was to purchase a new luxury car.They had visited countless car dealers and tested many cars, including Mercedes-Benz, BMW, Audi, and luxury cars from other well-known brands.However, they were still unsatisfied.It was either too low for their expectations or way over their budget.Coincidentally, there was a motor show in Cansington that day.There were plenty of luxury cars being showcased. Thea’s family visited the show.Davids's eyes widened when he saw the luxury cars on display.“Woah! Ferrari, Bentley, Maybach, and Bugatti Veyron!”David looked at the sexy and attractive model standing in front of the luxury cars on display and was envious. “When will we ever be able to buy a real luxury car? A car that costs one million is garbage compared to these.”Slap!Gladys slapped David’s forehead and reprimanded him. “Don’t have unrealistic dreams. It’s more than enough to buy a car that is about one million. Wh
Xander used to mainly do dirty business. He had not even opened his mouth yet, but the brat in front of him was pinning the blame on him.“Of course I’m going to brake and wait for the red light! You were following behind too closely and bumped into me. Now, you’re blaming me and wronging me?”Xander glanced at David’s car and noticed there was no license plate on it, nor was there an insurance sticker on the windscreen. Immediately, he was thrilled.“It’s a new car, right? Well, you see, there’s a dent in the back of my car now. It should be enough to pay me if you sell the car and top up a few million more.”David’s legs went rubbery, and he immediately fell to the ground. “I’m so sorry, Sir. Could you please forgive me? I bought this car with all my money. I have no money to compensate you!”“Why be so arrogant if you have no money?” Xander kicked David to the ground, approached him, and began beating him.“Don’t hit him!” Alyssa rushed over and grabbed Xander.Slap!Xander
Thea’s family was in a state of panic after David was taken away.David was kidnapped right before the traffic police, but they did not try to stop him.They were not stupid and understood that someone driving a car worth tens of millions was definitely a person of great influence.Alyssa grabbed Thea and asked hopefully, “You’re the only one who can save David now. Aren’t you acquainted with Alex Yates? Hurry and give him a call!”“I… I’ll try.” Thea was not confident.However, now that her brother was taken away, the situation was so urgent that she had no choice but to try.“Sorry, the number you dialed is temporarily unavailable.”Thea called Alex, but his phone could not be reached.“I called, but it’s not getting through,” said Thea.“Then what else should we do? J-James! Isn’t he a retired soldier? Didn’t he say that he knew someone very influential? Call him to come, quick!” Alyssa was about to cry and said with a sobbing voice.“I’ve called him. He is on the way.”“
“Don’t worry, Yoel. Thea will divorce James really soon.” Although David was useless, he was still her son, so she could not stand by and watch him get in trouble.On top of that, James was a retired soldier and kept claiming to know someone influential. Compared to that, Gladys chose someone who was really influential instead.Yoel belonged to the Smiths and had a huge family business worth tens of billions.Thea getting married to the Smiths would be a thousand times better than staying married to James.“What do you say, Thea?” Yoel glanced at Thea.Xander was indeed terrifying. The Smiths were nothing compared to Xander. He was a real gangster that did not bother to earn himself a reputation or title.However, his father had some connections with Xander, and they even had dinner together.Plus, it was just a rear-end and not a big deal.His father could simply talk to Xander and compensate him with some money, and then the problem would be solved.It was not a loss to pa
Thea called and informed James that the problem was settled.James returned home and prepared the food, waiting for Thea and the others to return home for lunch.They returned very quickly.As soon as they entered the house, James noticed something was wrong.They all wore very strange expressions.There were even tears on Thea and Alyssa’s faces.James asked doubtfully, “Thea, is something the matter? I thought everything was resolved. Why didn’t David come back together?”Thea glanced at him and cried, aggrieved.“What’s wrong?“Tell me if there’s something wrong. I can solve it for you,” James consoled her.“Ha…” Gladys sighed.“What’s wrong, Mom? Why’re you sighing?” asked James.However, no one in the family spoke.They entered the house and sat down. Immediately, James went to prepare the bowls and utensils, serving everyone some rice. “Come, let’s discuss it while eating,” he suggested.“James, let’s get a divorce,” Thea said with tears welling up in her eyes.J
“Sir…Sir, I’m sorry. Please…please forgive me.”David was bruised all over, but he kept begging for mercy.Suddenly, someone walked in and reported, “Mr. Xander, there’s someone here claiming that he brought the money to ransom that brat.”“Bring him in.”“Okay.”Yoel was led into the basement by several of Xander’s subordinates. He noticed David tied from the ceiling and bruised everywhere from getting a beating. Immediately, his legs went weak, and he almost fell to the ground.However, when he thought about getting Thea as his after getting David out, his courage immediately skyrocketed.Moreover, there were plenty of rumors about Xander. Yoel knew that he was someone loyal to his friends and would not cause trouble recklessly.He approached Xander who sitting on a chair, took out a cigarette, and handed it over.He bent over and smiled, “Hello, Mr. Xander. My name is Yoel from the Smiths. My father is York Smith. You’ve had dinner with him before.”Xander smiled and mu
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
