Chapter 4415
Xezal went on in an unhurried manner, "I think I've seen it somewhere before. Oh, right!
James Caden, that human cultivator, cast a formation around the Soul Pagoda when he
infiltrated our territory previously. The formation inscriptions found there were strangely
similar to the ones you used for your formation over this manor."
"If it weren't for the fact that you were away training during that period, I would have
thought that you and James Caden were actually the same person.”
James almost flinched upon hearing her words. However, he managed to keep a cool and
composed expression on his face.
James smiled wryly. "I’d feel extremely glad if that were true. If I had James Caden's
powers, I would go ahead and challenge Sir Youri for the position of Patriarch right away!"
Xezal suddenly changed the topic as she asked, "How's your progress on mastering the
Chaos Sacred Art?"

James sat on a chair placed in the front yard of the manor.
'I can’t see Xezal's true form nor the expressions on her face right now. However, I have a
feeling that she probably has a huge, sarcastic smirk on her face right now.
'I think she's somehow figured out my true identity since the very beginning. She knows
who I am and that I was a human from the moment I stepped foot in the Dooms’ territory.
'Is it possible I traveled back in time from the future and I met Xezal during that time?’
James pondered.
James looked at the dark figure standing before him for a brief moment. Instead of
answering her previous question, he asked, "Isn't it taxing to remain in that form? Why
don't you just show me your true form? I’m curious about your actual appearance."
Xezal sat in a chair facing James.
"The time is not right. When the time comes, you’ll be able to see my true form. Also,
you’ll need the Chaos Token, the most precious and important token to the Doom Race, to
see my true form. Unfortunately, that token has been lost for a long time. If you find the
token, you'd be able to see me in my true form even if you're not the patriarch."
'Xezal has a nice voice. Though I can't see her appearance, I get the impression that she is
probably quite attractive.' James thought.
"By the way, how much do you know about the Chaos Sacred Art?" James asked.
James felt that there was a good chance Xezal had information about the true meaning
behind the Chaos Sacred Art given her mysterious background.
Xezal paused briefly before saying, "The Chaos Sacred Art was created when the Chaos
Master had just crossed into the Caelum Acme Rank. However, it was only thoroughly
perfected once the Chaos Master had reached the peak of the Caelum Acme Rank's late
stage."

perceive the true meaning of the Chaos Sacred Art even until now. I don't think I'll ever be
able to see the day when someone manages to master and unleash the Nine Voices of
Chaos again."
James' brows lifted. "You know about the Nine Voices of Chaos? Did you perhaps try to
master the Chaos Sacred Art and the Nine Voices of Chaos too?"
Xezal did not respond to the question. "Each tone of the Chaos’ Nine Voices represents the
true essence of the Chaos. The simplest way of interpreting them is by shouting them out
through one's mouth."
"Back then, the Chaos Master had the ability to unleash the true power of each tone of the
Chaos' Nine Voices. When the tones are combined differently, they can even produce
various powerful effects. The Chaos Master could unleash the Nine Voices of Chaos using
his sword, and he almost succeeded in defeating the Chaos Heavenly Path by using this
power. Sadly, he perished because he was overwhelmed by the Heavenly Path in the end."
James grew more and more curious about Xezal's background. He asked, "How do you
even know all these things that weren't passed down in ancient scrolls or records? Have
you lived through the Sky Burial Age? Have you been serving the Doom Race’s patriarchs
as their chambermaid ever since then?"
