Chapter 1992


    Xain pressed on, “Have you heard of the battle that took ce in ancient times?”


    “Oh?”


    James’ curiosity was piqued. Though he had never heard of this battle, he roughly knew that it had


    something to do with demons.


    “Do tell.”


    He looked at Xain.


    Xain exined. “In ancient times, a foreign Demon Race invaded Earth, and chaos and destruction


    ensued. The mighty ones amongst the human race went to great lengths to expel and annihte them


    in exchange for peace.”


    James furrowed his eyebrows and asked, “What does this have to do with the seal on Earth?”


    Xain thought about it and said, “I don’t know about the specifics. I can only give you a brief


    exnation.” “Do tell.” James looked at him.


    Xain was lost in contemtion. After some time, he said, “In ancient times, Earth was a heavenly


    ce. So, the foreign Demon Race invaded Earth hoping to seize the for themselves. Upon


    seeing this, every living being gathered and fought back. However, at that moment, a group of


    earthlings chose to side with the Demon Race, and those people were your ancestors.”


    “Preposterous!”


    James rebutted him.


    Although he knew little about this, he firmly believed that his ancestors would not havemitted such


    a wicked act. He learned from the Chamber of Scriptures’ custodian that the earthlings’ ancestors were


    heroes who sacrificed their lives to expel the foreign invaders.


    “I speak the truth.”


    Xain continued, “Back then, just as the human race was about to emerge victorious, a group of people


    turned traitors and defected to the other side. In the end, we lost the war. And what did we get in


    return? Earth was sealed away, while countless beings were trapped in the seal.”


    “But, what about the Demon Race?”


    James asked, “Based on your statement, Earth should’ve been conquered by the Demon Race. Why


    are they nowhere to be seen?”


    Xain shook his head and said, “I don’t know either. These events took ce a long time ago. I also


    have no idea the reason why the Demon Race left Earth and sealed the. In any case, you


    earthlings are the descendants of sinners. Once the seal is undone, the great purge will happen, and


    you, descendants of the traitors, shall die a painful death.”

    Hearing this, James was lost in contemtion.


    “Is that really the truth?”


    He believed otherwise. After all, this happened a long time ago. How would Xain know about the


    specifics?


    To unravel the truth, James had no choice but to consult the Chamber of Scriptures custodian. As she


    was an influential figure, she had to have some insider information.


    “Not only that, but you’ve also cultivated Demonic Arts. You’re the worst among all


    Xain stared James in the eye, trying to pierce through his thoughts.


    “Haha


    Jamesughed.


    “What’s the point of telling him this, Xain?”


    Samarth, who had remained silent all this while, nced at James and said coldly, “The earthlings will


    perish sooner orter. What’s the point of wasting your breath with him?”


    Upon hearing this, James red at him.


    James’ gaze sent a chill down his spine. So, he hurriedly shut his mouth and averted his gaze.


    “Hahaha, Xain


    A burst ofughter boomed.


    Then, a schrly man walked into the main hall. In just a few steps, he was already before James and


    the others. He looked around twenty years of age and was wearing white clothing. Holding a fan in his


    hand, he exuded a charismatic aura.


    Xain stood up and said with a smile. “It’s been a while, Yandel ”


    “How do you do? I’ve been in closed-door meditation all this while. I heard that an earthling killed your


    disciples?”


    The man in a white robe said with a mischievous look on his face.


    Xain smiled faintly and shifted the subject. Looking at James, he introduced him to Yandel, “James, this


    is Yandel Harlow, a genius disciple of the Overworld’s Schstic Sect. Don’t underestimate him just


    because of his youthful appearance. Though he’s not even thirty years of age, he’s reached the


    Supernatural Consummation and is about to cross into the Herculean rank.”


    Saying that, he looked at Yandel and introduced James to him, “This is James, a martial artist from


    Earth.”


    Hearing that, Yandel looked at James scornfully and said coldly, “Xain, how could you allow a mere


    earthling to sit in the main hall? If word of this spread, you’d be held ountable.”
