“That’s right. Stick right next to him.” Beatrice pointed to Raquel and said, “You will follow and serve him starting today. “You are to obey his every command, no matter how harsh or dangerous they can be. Even if he tries to beat you to death, you are not allowed to resist or fight back.” Raquel had a look of bewilderment on her face. She could hardly believe her ears. James was about to object to the notion when Beatrice waved her hand dismissively to stop him. “I know you are fiercely loyal to your wife, James. Even if it’s just a fling with another lady, it’s probably considered unacceptable in your relationship. “However, you don’t have to worry. My disciple is obedient, quick-witted, and kind. You can just keep her around as your servant. “If you do happen to take a liking to her, you can always make her your mistress later on.” James dropped his jaw upon hearing those absurd remarks. Similarly, Raquel was staring at Beatrice with bulging eyes. Her master’s sugge
Suddenly, Thea pinched his earlobe and pulled hard. “Ack!” James yelped. “What were you looking at?” Thea asked in a low voice, “Should I strip myself so that you could compare us?” “No! No!” James hurriedly waved his hands. “You can punish her as much as you want since she’s your captive now. So, why don’t we discuss urgent matters first?” “Are there matters that are more urgent than you ogling Yehria and fantasizing about sex with her?” Thea raised her brows. James knew he had to explain himself. He closed his eyes. “Honey, you can’t say that. “I am a healthy, normal man. Wouldnʼt it be abnormal if I didnʼt look at beautiful women at all?” Thea was rendered speechless by his response. James grinned. “However, looking at beautiful women doesnʼt mean that I will make a move on them. “I am loyal to my wife. My heart is forever yours.” Thea chuckled as she watched how James’ face suddenly became animated. She lifted her hand and transferred Yehria to her storage s
James heaved a deep breath and looked up to the sky. He knew Thea better than anyone else in the world. Her biggest concern was not about something measly like him not wanting to do this. Instead, she was probably afraid of losing her current self after fusing with the Light Heavenly Path to become the Yin governor. Whether it was her or the Light Heavenly Path, they were both forced to go through reincarnation. Their emotions and desires were removed. They experienced various things while eventually becoming the Heavenly Paths again. No one could tell what would happen if they were to fuse two people with different hearts and minds to make one again. Moreover, the Yin governor was born an Alcide being. According to Emperor Yardenʼs theories, the returned Yin governor would lose all her past consciousness. In that case, James might lose Thea for good once she became the Yin governor. It was the outcome both James and Thea feared the most. Thea sighed. “It’s a little
“You can put away the Three Treasures Formation already.” Morgott adjusted his robe and sat on the floor. “Xanthakos wonʼt come here.” Jamesʼ brows arched. He learned from Chuba and Zemra that Morgott was the only living being who had the experience of battling Emperor Qadeer. Naturally, Morgott would know more about Xanthakos. James lifted his hand and undid the Three Treasures Formation. As the view switched, they could see how everything in their surroundings had been reduced to rubble. Even the Thirty-Third Heavenʼs landmark, the Tai Chi Grand Temple, was completely obliterated. “Let me have a sip of your Chaos Absinthe. I need to calm down for a bit.” Morgott stretched his palm out toward James. James chuckled. “I was always the one who would ask others for free drinks. “Besides, can you have the Chaos Absinthe at your current level of cultivation?” Morgott clicked his tongue. “Consider this as a favor to me. Once we make it to the Forty-Ninth Heaven, Iʼll treat
For a while, Morgott stared silently at the Xyloria Tai Chi Pearl with rounded eyes. Suddenly, he leaped to his feet and shouted excitedly, “Shit! Did you dig up Xyloria Tai Chiʼs grave? “She’s not buried in a grave, though. There is the Kronosia Realm…” James rolled his eyes. “I took it from Yehria.” “Sheʼs one sneaky lady.” Morgottʼs eyes widened even more. “I searched everywhere after killing the Xyloria Tai Chi but couldn’t find the pearl. I thought I must have somehow destroyed it. Who knew it was hidden so well?” James responded, “You donʼt have to elaborate on your past wrongdoings. So, is this considered one of the Five Spirits?” “Of course!” Morgott nodded vigorously. “The Xyloria Tai Chi Pearl is a manifestation of Xyloria Tai Chiʼs spirit. “It can be used to control all living beings. What’s more, it is a top-grade item of the Tai Chi Aura required for the Five Spirits Integration. “You’re in luck, James. You got such a great item for the Tai Chi Aura. You’ll
James also finally understood why Morgott was so frightened when he unsheathed the Jozo Sword. “Good heavens!” Morgott stared at James. “I’m glad I’ve chosen to join your side. Otherwise, I would probably be exterminated for good this time.” James took a deep breath. “So, can I head up to the Forty-Ninth Heaven and defeat the Five Path Emperors using this sword?” Morgott fell silent and looked to the side. There was something strange about the look on his face. It was as if he was trying to plot something. James knitted his brows. “Perhaps you can.” Morgott tapped his finger on his chin. “However, it is a different story if they use the gates in the battle.” James replied, “I have the knowledge of the Three Treasures Integration, this sword, and the cultivation of a Soma Daeclon Rank cultivator…” “You should still master the Five Spirits Integration first.” Morgott cut him off. “The Forty-Ninth Heaven is like a huge trap for us. “We only have one chance to attack that p
James raised his hand and cast a small cloud of Innate Energy into the energy ball given by Wesley. In a flash, an open scroll appeared before his eyes. Several lines shining with blood-red light were written on the scroll. “For a long time, we had hope. All beings waited for the Caden Supreme Path to restore peace and restructure the world. “Donʼt fret even if it’s a matter of life and death. I will do everything in my power and risk my life even if I have to. To prepare the way for you to achieve the Supreme Path and realize the Bloodshade Theory. “Therefore, I have three reminders for you. “First, practice the Three Treasures and search for the Five Spirits. Strengthen your base and steel your resolve. Recluse yourself and enhance your powers. “Second, bring peace and order to the Tai Chi. Open up the Historial and let others in. Use your men wisely and form a new system. “Third, pause the Tai Chi Tribulation. Keep the Yin governor and Morgott under control. Be extre
A good-looking man wearing a black robe levitated mid-air in a seated position. A bright purple light and a tremendous amount of Qrohm emanated from his body. Apart from that, the man was surrounded by countless colorful, slow-rotating light orbs. Upon a closer look, those light orbs were actually mini universes. The word “Path” floated above the manʼs head, glowing faintly and rotating slowly. It added an air of authority and holiness to the man. A beam of Quell Divine Light appeared in a far corner just then. A beautiful young lady in a white robe stepped out of the light the next instant. Her body glowed with the Quell Divine Light as well. The man’s eyes flew open. “Huh? What are you doing here?” “I have good news and bad news.” The lady smiled mischievously. “Which do you want to hear first?” The man clicked his tongue. “Leirita, I donʼt like playing your childish games. Just say what you have to say.” Then, he closed his eyes. “You already have the Three Treas
