Chapter 2148


    “Y-You’re a demon?”


    Miguel’s eyes widened, and his face was full of panic.


    James said calmly, “It doesn’t matter what I am. I’m giving you one more chance. If you don’t answer,


    I’ll let you feel the full force of my wrath.”


    Demonic Energy seeped out from the ck lotus and engulfed Miguel.


    Miguel was shaken to his very core. He knew he would die if he refused to speak.


    He was terrified. Faced with death, his survival instincts kicked in.


    “D-Don’t kill me. I’ll answer your questions.”


    Only then did James retract the Demonic Lotus.


    Laelia also gave James a dubious look.


    She knew about demons from legends she had heard.


    Never would she have expected a human from Earth to have such terrifying Demonic Energy.


    However, she could not care less at this point. She did not care if she was fraternizing with demons as


    long as it would allow her family to be saved.


    “Talk,” Laelia threatened.


    Miguel quickly replied, “Your family members are safe and sound in the Dark Keep’s base. We did not


    kill any of them.”


    James said nonchntly, “Lead the way.”


    Miguel shakily stood up from the ground and said, “The Dark Keep’s base is in the deepest region of


    the Soul Beast Mountain Range.”


    Laelia turned to James and said pleadingly, “Let’s head to Soul Beast Mountain Range as soon as


    possible, James.”


    “Mhm.” James nodded.


    Afterward, James left the ce with Laelia with Miguel in tow.


    Three dayster, James and Laelia entered the Soul Beast Mountain Range with Miguel’s guidance.


    The Soul Beast Mountain Range was within the Land of Tabal and was full of towering mountains


    connected to one another. It looked spectacr from a distance.


    After they headed deep into the mountain range, they arrived at the Dark Keep’s base.


    With Miguel leading the way, the two easily made it into the base.


    After entering the Dark Keep’s main hall, Miguel ordered, “Bring the Targwyn family members here.”


    “Understood.”


    The Dark Keep’s guards promptly set off.


    Soon, hundreds of people were brought into the hall.


    These people were the Targwyn family members.


    “Father.”


    Laelia’s body trembled with joy after seeing her family. She rushed toward a middle-aged man.


    The middle-aged man wore a white robe that was soiled with dirt. At that moment, he hardly seemed


    like the lord of a country at all.


    “Laelia?”


    Zoe Targwyn was shocked to see Laelia. With a disappointed expression, he sighed. “I see… Even you


    weren’t able to escape. Our family must be destined to perish.”


    “Father, everything’s alright. We can leave.”


    Laelia wept happily.


    “What do you mean?”


    Zoe was taken by surprise.


    James walked over and said, “Princess Laelia, you should leave with your family first.”


    “Father, let’s go.”


    Laelia guided Zoe away.


    The Targwyn family left the Dark Keep’s base in a state of confusion.


    Miguel pleadingly looked at James in the main hall and said, “Since I’ve already let everyone go, don’t


    you think you should unseal my acupoints and spare my life?”


    James nced at him.


    Meeting his gaze, Miguel kneeled on the ground in fear.


    “I’m willing to serve you, Sir. I swear to submit and obey you for the rest of my life.”Text content ? N?velDrama.Org.
