The women looked at James. All of them appeared concerned and uneasy.James held his breath for a second before replying, “If everything goes smoothly, I’ll be able to return after New Year’s Day.”The Mount Thunder Conference fell on Christmas.It was only a few days away from the new year.The conference would last longer than a mere few days.If everything proceeded as planned, James could return after the new year.If not…James did not dare to think about the worst case scenario because he had no confidence in coming back alive in the first place.Hearing his answer, the women went silent.After a while, Cynthia suddenly broke the silence and said, “James, I’ve already cultivated my True Energy, but I’m still very weak and won’t be of help to you.”“Go back to Cansington. All of you don’t need to concern yourself with what’s happening here. After you return, you can do whatever you need to, but just don’t leave Cansington,” James said softly. He hoped that they’d listen

Only after Quincy and the rest had been sent back to Cansington did James feel slightly more relaxed.He believed that Lucjan would no longer threaten him with the lives of others since he had already consumed the Soul Eating Pill.Lucjan too was incredibly confident that James would continue to work for him.Lucjan stared at James in the villa with admiration and said, “I really like you, James. You’re a very rare gem and you’ve achieved such great strength at a young age. In a few more decades, you’ll be practically invincible. With you by my side, we’ll be able to usher in a new era of unprecedented prospierity!”James asked calmly, “I have no idea what the Gu Sect’s objective is. Would you care to enlighten me about it?”“Is that so?”Lucjan looked at James and replied with a smile, “Most people chase strength and power throughout their lives. It’s simply human nature to be greedy and stand at the top of the world. If it weren’t, there wouldn’t have been so many wars in the p

Not bothering with James’ lack of response, Lucjan continued to speak. “Back then, many countries around the world were swept up into the battle that ensued. The enemy went berserk and committed heinous crimes all over the world. However, the King at that time refused the war reparations.”James listened carefully.“Our sect advocated taking advantage of the opportunity to launch an attack, but the King prioritized the restoration of the country. Thus, the relationship between both parties frayed and eventually collapsed, leading to the first battle against the Gu Sect. Our sect suffered heavy losses, but the King brushed aside all its prior contributions to the country and wiped out the Owens and Davises.“I understand that a leader must be decisive in such moments to prevent problems before they arise.“...But he showed no mercy at all.”The more Lucjan spoke of the past, the more visibly agitated he became.Meanwhile, James continued to stay silent and kept his face expression

James understood that the two women would be killed if he refused their service. He had no choice but to accept since he did not want others to die because of him.The two women stood back up and began to undress James.Soon, his clothes were gone, leaving only his boxers.One of the women reached out to help him take it off. James quickly held out a hand to stop her. “That’s enough.”Then, he walked into the bathtub. The water temperature was pleasant. He lay down in the bathtub and let out a relaxed sigh.The two women suddenly kneeled on the floor and began to also undress.James immediately tried to interrupt them “What’re you two doing?”One of the women replied respectfully while pressing her head against the floor, “Emperor, we’re yours tonight.”James was baffled. “It’s an honor to serve you tonight, Emperor.”“Please accept us, Emperor.”“We understand that lowly insects like us aren’t worthy of being with you and as such, we won’t pester you in the future. You

The two whispered and talked about James.“I’ve heard some rumors about James… they say he’s devoted and loyal to Thea. He even married into the Callahans and endured their mistreatment all so he could be with her.”“Yeah, I’ve heard about that too. Thea sure is a lucky woman. People like us can only dream of having a life like hers...”“Yeah…”Suddenly, James walked back into the bathroom.The twins quickly stood up, exposing their naked bodies to James.James quickly turned around.“That’s enough. I’ll wash up myself. You two can go back in the room and stay there for the night.” James had no choice but to let them spend the night in his room even if he did not intend to pursue things with them. The twins exchanged a couple of glances and got out of the bathtub simultaneously.Their long slender legs were completely exposed for James to see.One of the twins hugged James from behind and ran her hand over his chest. “Let us serve you tonight.”The other sister also quickly

James was unable to accept such things.They currently lived in an era of peace where everyone was supposed to live as equals. No one was supposed to be inferior to others.He stood up, took the cigarette, and left. He opened the balcony door and walked outside. Standing on the balcony, he looked toward the distant landscape covered in snow.Seeing that James was completely uninterested in them, they had no choice but to get dressed.“Sir…”James was deep in thought as he looked into the snowscape when a sudden cry brought him back to the present.He returned to his senses and looked at the two women coming out to the balcony.The twins were identical and had even the same height as if lifted from the same mold. They were even dressed the same.James reassured them gently. “You don’t have to do anything for me. Don’t worry. I’ll keep you two safe while I’m here.”“Okay.”The two nodded simultaneously and bowed gratefully. “Thank you.”James sighed in relief and walked back

Hearing Callan being mentioned, James could not help asking, “Is Callan still alive? Is he still the current Supreme Commander of Gu Sect?”Lucjan smiled but did not answer James’ question. Instead, he changed the topic. “James, I’m expecting a lot from you. I believe your strength and talent will reach their full potential if you join me.”“You drive a hard bargain. Fine, I’ll join you.” James nodded after hesitating a moment.Lucjan laughed and clapped his hands together gleefully, “Atta boy! Come, drink.”Aphrodite and Venus quickly poured out the wine for the two men.They had a grand feast, but James ate silently throughout the meal without saying much.After eating, he returned to his room along with Aphrodite and Venus.A middle-aged man downstairs turned to Lucjan. “Sir, is James really someone we should trust?”Lucjan paused for a moment before he replied, “He killed Mount Thunder Sect’s leader, Jackson, to save his friends. I have eyes in Mount Thunder Sect. All the

Soon, James returned to the villa and leaped onto the second-floor balcony. He was about to enter his room when an unexpected voice from behind caught him off guard.“Where did you go?”James turned to the sound and saw an old man sitting in a lotus position in the courtyard.Lucjan jumped and instantly appeared on the second-floor balcony.James looked at him calmly, but internally his heart was racing.He had specifically checked the area before leaving. There seemed to be no one around, and he took great caution to ensure he was not being followed. He never expected Lucjan to spot him on his way back.James shrugged and replied, “I bored in the room, so I went for a short walk. What’s wrong? Am I not allowed to leave?”“Of course, you can.”Lucjan parted his mouth and said, “James, I really like you and I genuinely hope that we can work together as comrades instead of me having to use the poison against you.”“That’s out of the question.”James refused. “This is the last t
