Chapter 2324


    That was because he could not intervene in the battle between superpowers.


    With the headmaster’s assistance, he hurriedly left.


    Soon, he arrived outside the Divinity Sect. However, the entire ce was surrounded by a group of


    men in ck robes. Standing in mid-air was the Demon Race’s Protector James had encountered at


    Mount Walvern.


    “I can’t leave now…”


    James’ face paled. There was nowhere else for him to run.


    He returned to the Divinity Sect once more. However, a fierce battle had broken out. The Divinity Sect’s


    Patriarch had joined forces with Marquis Tenzin to fight against the other cultivators.


    Mount Divinity disintegrated. The battle aura was so overwhelming that even James’ blood ran cold. He


    did not dare wander about.


    After diving into a pile of rubble, he entered the Celestial Abode, which gradually shrank until it was the


    size of a grain of sand hidden deep beneath the rubble.


    At the same time, many cultivators were gathered inside the Celestial Abode. They wore baffled looks


    on their faces as they had no idea what had happened.


    On the mountain outside the city, everyone looked at one another.


    At that moment, James appeared. Immediately, everyone swarmed toward him.


    “What’s going on, James?”Content property of N?velDra/ma.Org.


    Among them were Harold Carmelo, the Grand Supernatural of the Divinity Sect, and others such as


    Loki Xabi, Demetrius Lev, and Quintina.


    The moment he appeared, Quintina grabbed his arm firmly.


    “Tell me what’s going on, James!”


    “Woah, calm down!” James gently patted Quintina’s hand and said, “A woman should be gentle, or else


    you won’t be able to get married.”


    Quintina released her grip and said, “Cut the cr*p and tell me what’s going on!”


    Everyone’s gaze was fixed on James, who narrated the chain of events that unfolded-from how he


    rescued Farley Gideon at the Ancient n, how Marquis Tenzin was scared off by his token, to the


    Divinity Sect’s conspiracy.


    “What? It was you all along?”


    Quintina was stunned.


    Some who were doubtful said, “How can this be? The Divine Holy Emperor is a well-respected figure in


    the Ancient Realm. How could he have colluded with the Demon Race?”


    Harold said, “That’s right, I don’t believe you. My master isn’t that sort of person.”


    James said coldly, “Are you guys dumb or what? He was the one who chose the Grand Tournament’s


    location. Could he really not know that there was a Demon Race camp in Mount Walvern? It’s obvious


    he sent us to our deaths. If it wasn’t for me, all of you would have died long ago.


    “Besides, the Demon Race has already surrounded the Divinity Sect. Do you have any idea how fierce


    the battle outside is?”


    Unwilling to prolong the conversation any longer, James descended the mountain and headed toward


    the city.


    Quintina chased after him and grabbed his arm, pleading, “James, you have to save my father.”


    Upon hearing this, James stopped in his tracks and said, “You must be kidding me. Your father is the


    greatest figure in the Ancient Realm, whereas I have only recently reached the Immortal Ascension


    rank. I haven’t reached the Mage Rank.”


    James had no idea what was going on outside, but he did not wish to concern himself with the affairs of


    the outside world. Since he had no wish to die, he did not want to leave the Celestial Abode. The


    moment


    he took even a step out, the Demon Race could annihte him easily. At least he would be able to


    guarantee his own safety by remaining hidden inside. Based on his n, he would only leave the


    Celestial Abode only after it was safe outside.
