‘What’s the treasure, exactly?‘It’s surprising that it’s actually related to the seal.’He looked at Laelia, who was sitting on a rock, and asked with a smile, “Princess Laelia, what exactly is your family’s treasure? When the seal became loose, why did your family’s treasure become unusual? Does that have anything to do with the seal?”Laelia shook her head absent-mindedly. She knew little about the treasure that had been passed down through her family.“What’s the treasure, then? Can you let me take a look at it?”“That’s…”Laelia was hesitant. It was a treasure that had been handed down through her family. How could she simply show it to a stranger?“If you’re bothered, forget about it. I’m just curious.”When he saw Laelia’s unenthusiastic face, James waved his hand slightly and did not say anything more.Laelia looked at James and began to ponder. James had saved her. Furthermore, he was very powerful. He was confident in his ability to destroy the Dark Keep.If such
Chapter 2135
The Celestial Abode’s Spirit Tool once served an emperor, and he was very knowledgeable about many things.Even during the reign of Emperor Jabari, the Burial Jade was a thing of legend.The Spirit Tool went on, “According to my understanding, the Burial Jade once belonged to someone. Targwyn was his surname, and he was called the Guardian of the Tomb. He was extremely powerful. At one point in time, he was the most prominent figure in the world. However, for unknown reasons, he vanished along with the Targwyn family.“I never imagined we’d come across the Guardian of the Tomb’s descendant in this small Land of Taval.”The Spirit Tool could not stop himself from lamenting. The descendants of the most powerful person in history had fallen into such dire straits.James asked in his heart, “How does the Burial Jade relate to the seal of the world, then? Why did the Burial Jade show visions when the seal became loose?”The Spirit Tool explained, “The Burial Jade was manifested from t

Right now, in order to save the empire and her family, she needed James to return with her.“S-Sir…” Laelia could not bear to wait any longer and had to speak up.Her voice shook James from his thoughts. He opened his eyes slightly to look at Laelia and asked quietly, “What’s the matter, Your Highness?”There was a hint of pleading in Laelia’s slightly awkward face. She said, “When I escaped from the capital, the capital was already surrounded by Dark Keep’s cultivators. It has been three days since then. I-I’m worried that the capital has met with misfortune.”“So, you want to hurry back immediately?” James glanced at Laelia.He could see that Laelia was very anxious, however he was also calculating. Could he use Laelia's anxiety and worry to make another deal with her and trick her into giving him the Burial Jade?Laelia was unaware of the Burial Jade’s history, but he knew about it. It was something that even the creator of the Celestial Abode had laboriously sought after.“Y

As the voice rang out. From a distance, the sounds of footsteps could be heard.Soon, a large number of cultivators in dark robes and dark masks appeared.At a glance, the area appeared to be densely packed with approximately three thousand people.These people appeared quickly and surrounded James and the others.From the sky, an elder descended. He stood firm on the ground.The elder looked to be in his seventies. His face was wrinkly, and his eyes were sunken. His appearance was unsettling. He was dressed in a red robe and holding a red sword.“Saturio Hadecus?”When Laelia saw this elder, her face turned pale. The remaining dozen guards were all so terrified they were starting to shiver.James could not help but turn to face Laelia and said, “Saturio Hadecus? Who is he?”Laelia’s face was filled with fear. Her teeth were slightly chattering as she said, “The Dark Keep…the Dark Keep’s Deputy Master. His ability is only second to the Master’s. He is one of the top cultivator

As his voice reverberated throughout the area, incorporeal Sword Energy swept through.A dozen guards around Laelia were killed instantly.There was a flash of an afterimage. In the next second, Saturio was already in front of Laelia.After slashing down with his sword and killing many of the Dark Keep’s guards who were approaching him, James appeared in front of Laelia with a flash and grabbed her.Laelia’s body tipped, allowing her to avoid Saturio’s attack.Sword Energy hit the ground, and the entire area trembled in an instant.James drew Laelia along with him, stepped into the air, and appeared at a height of several dozen meters in the air. After that, he put away his longsword.“Hold on to me!” he shouted.Laelia knew James would be distracted if he dragged her along. She immediately held on to James.James raised both of his hands. In his palms, two entirely different True Energies appeared. The two streams of True Energy instantly merged to form a new power.“Cosmic

Laelia witnessed James’ body being stabbed. He was even struck with a palm, sent flying, and collapsed to the ground. The ground had even developed a deep pit.Her face turned pale from the horror. Even her savior had died horribly at Saturio’s hands. She would have no way out today.“Your Highness…” Saturio stood in the air. He smiled as he looked at Laelia, who was trembling in the distance. “Did you really think that this man could save you? How absurd.”James was already dead, as far as Saturio could tell.“I-I’ll give it to you.”Laelia decided to make a compromise. Even James was dead. If she did not hand over the jade pendant, she would also be dead and Saturio would still get the jade pendant.If she handed over the jade pendant, she could at least preserve her life. As long as she lived, there was a chance for vengeance.However, at this precise moment, a silhouette of a person shot up into the sky from the ruins below. His hair was unkempt, and his entire body was cove

After a while, she finally arrived where James was.She saw James lying on the ground. His aura was very weak.As she was reminded of how James killed Saturio earlier, she was a little frightened and did not dare to move close to him. Instead, she stood several meters away from him, keeping a wary eye on James. She asked cautiously, “S-Sir, are you alright?”James was lying on the ground and recovering. He said softly, “It’s nothing serious. I’ll be fine after resting for a while.”After hearing that, Laelia let out a sigh of relief.She did not dare to approach him and instead stood several meters away, staring at him.Under her watchful gaze, James’ complexion gradually grew rosy. In just half an hour, James had recovered. He got to his feet and started to move his body.“Wha-?”Laelia was taken aback once again. She could clearly sense how weak James’ aura was. He was on the verge of death. However, after only half an hour, he was full of vim and vigor.With a smile on his

Along the way, corpses were strewn about on the ground.It was a gruesome sight.Even James was appalled. He never expected the Dark Keep to be so devoid of morals that they would eradicate a whole city.Laelia quickly rushed in the direction of the Imperial Palace.Within the palace’s perimeter, more corpses were scattered on the floor.The floor was soaked in fresh blood.Laelia had to step over bodies in order to advance forward.Soon, she entered the palace.Many dead armored guards could be seen inside the palace, and it was evident that they died miserable deaths.Laelia rushed inside, but corpses were piled up around the palace, and she could not find a single living person.“Father…”She fell to the ground and wailed in despair.James had no idea how to console her.After a while, James attempted to comfort her. “Let’s search the palace first to see if we find your relatives’ remains. It’s possible they were spared and captured instead.”Laelia finally calmed hers
