Chapter 1619


    James froze.


    Lance was dead?


    The news came as a shock to him.


    “Yes, he died by Tobias’ hand,” Sky said.


    As he said that, he exuded a terrifying aura that shattered the windows of the convoys behind him.


    Even the Phantom Army was sent flying and copsed to the ground.


    James deflected the aura in time and prevented the convoy behind him from destruction. Staring at Sky


    in disbelief, a chill ran down his spine.


    He had never fought against Sky. He had only heard of him. Sky was a member of Lance’s Elite Four a


    hundred years ago. As the leader of the Elite Four, it was only because of him that Lance managed to


    secure his position as the King.


    Sky exuded a powerful aura that suppressed even James’. Slowly, he staggered backward. Although


    the two had yet toe to blows, it seemed that Sky’s True Energy was even greater than that of


    James’. This could only mean that he was more powerful than him. Since James was on the verge of


    ascending the Sixth Stair, this would mean Sky was above the Sixth Stair.


    As he thought of this, James’ face darkened.


    Sky walked toward James. With every step he took, James took a step back. Soon, James had


    retreated to where the convoy was stopped.


    “This is yourst chance. Do you agree to my demands?” Sky roared.


    His voice reverberated in James’ eardrums.


    James catalyzed True Nine Ordeals Energy and forcibly resisted the terrifying pressure.


    Looking at Sky who gradually approached him, he knew that there would be a bloodbath if he did not


    agree to his demands.


    James was unafraid of Sky since the Invincible Body Siddhi had the best defensive capability in the


    world. Even if Sky had reached a higher realm, he might not have been able to destroy his defense.


    However, he did not dare attack Sky. He knew the surrounding neighborhoods would be utterly in ruins


    if they resorted to violence. After thinking for a moment, he said, “Fine, I agree to your demands.”


    He had no choice but topromise. Besides, this deal was beneficial to him as well. At least Sky


    would not be antagonistic toward him, which would greatly benefit Sol’s stability.


    “That’s more like it.”


    Sky’s aura dissipated.

    Looking at James, he said while smiling. “I’ll give you time to rehaul the Capital and prop up a new


    King. Once the new King is in power and Sol has stabilized, we will conquer the West together.”


    A smile crept up on Sky’s face as he turned to leave.


    James watched Sky’s retreating figure as he murmured, “Does he truly understand the Vampire n’s


    strength? Why is he so confident that he can annihte them? Besides, he said that there’s something


    more crucial to him than controlling Sol. What could it be?”


    He was lost in thought.


    All of Sol was within Sky’s control. It would be nigh impossible for him to tussle for political authority


    with Sky if he insisted on holding on to power. Now, however, Sky voluntarily handed control of Sol to


    James. His only condition to James was this: head to the West with him and conquer the Vampire


    n’s headquarters.


    “What does the Vampire n have for him to willingly give up everything?”


    James could not figure this out.
