Chapter 5139
Then, he moved his feet and began walking toward the mountaintop.
Simultaneously, the guards were eerily vaporized as they tried to pounce at James. They
were exterminated even before they could get close enough to their target. Not even a
fragment of their souls had survived James’ attack.
Since there weren't any formation cast around the mountain, James was able to ascend
the mountain fairly quickly.
Meanwhile, Lor had detected an unusual aura coming from the direction of the mountain's
base. As he used his powers to check who was there, Lor witnessed how James managed
to take out his subordinates in just a matter of seconds.
A small frown creased his forehead.
Whoosh!
James had materialized before Lor inside the manor located near the top of the mountain.
Lor remained in his seat as he started in a calm voice, "I wasn't expecting you to show up
here voluntarily, James Caden."
James walked over to an empty chair next to Lor and plopped down. "You shouldn't have
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtcome to the Endlos. To be honest, you picked the wrong time. If you had chosen to come
here during the first or second invasion attempts, you probably would have succeeded in
conquering the Endlos. You’ve lost your best opportunity when you choose to appear now."
"Is that right?” Lor smiled faintly and asked, "Are you saying that I’ve lost the opportunity
because you are here now?"
"Precisely." James slowly nodded. Then, he met Lor's gaze." You come from the Central
Plane. Have you heard of the Supremusseum?"
'The Supremusseum?"
Lor's eyes widened in surprise at the mention of that name.
"It seems you have.” James' lips curled.
"You... How are you associated with the Supremusseum?" Lor kept his gaze trained on
James' face.
James replied nonchalantly, "Well, the Supremusseum was my old dojo. I was a bit
careless in the past, and I almost got exterminated by a group of cultivators. Luckily for
me, I have learned the Thousand Souls Secret Art. I managed to survive the attack by
using that secret art. By chance, I was then reincarnated into the Endlos Plane."
There was a loud crash as Lor jumped out of his seat but tripped and fell onto the floor.
The Supremusseum belonged to a force that was once feared by all in the Central Plane. It
was also one of the strongest groups known by many across the different planes of
existence.
Although Lord Supremus had perished, one of his subordinates had taken over to manage
the Supremusseum. Even after so long, the group still possessed immense power and
influence among their people.
Lor's family had kept a portrait of Lady Wikolia all along. Therefore, he was able to
recognize her when he saw Xezal.
However, Lor had not had the chance to see Lord Supremus in the flesh. He had no
information regarding Lord Supremus ' age and gender. If anyone were to come up to him
and admit that they were Lord Supremus, Lor never would have believed them.
However, he had just met the reincarnation of Lady Wikolia not too long ago. He could run
into Lord Supremus’ reincarnation just like this too.
"Lord... Lord Supremus, I... I..."
Lor scrambled to his feet. He could not even finish his sentence coherently.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"I... I'll leave right now. I won’t ever step foot in the Endlos again."
"You don't have to do that." James continued, "I will allow you a chance to challenge me.
You can leave Endlos if you win. If you lose, I will end you right away."
"I..."
Lor scrunched his face as if he was about to burst into tears.
He had never imagined that he would receive a battle challenge from Lord Supremus
someday. Even though James was merely the reincarnation of Lord Supremus, Lor dared
not go into an actual battle with him.
Lord Supremus was such a mighty and powerful cultivator that he could probably take out
the lord of Emyr Island with just a snap of his fingers.
"My soul has sustained severe damage during that final attack in my last life. Though I
have regained my memories, my powers are still not fully restored. I am still in the same
cultivation rank that I have achieved thus far in my current life. So, there’s a chance you
may defeat me."
James spoke in a calm and collected manner. He was never going to allow Lor to leave the
Endlos alive.
Also, James postulated that he had a sixty percent chance of winning a battle against Lor.
So, he intentionally shared the stories of his past to exert pressure on Lor and to raise his
chances of winning by another twenty percent.
