Chapter 2693


    “I see.” Realization dawned on James’ face.


    Shaken, the demaster said, ‘The curse’s power is immensely malicious. Even I stand no chance


    against it. I’m afraid I cannot continue any further. I’ll leave everything to you two. I’m turning back


    now.”


    Fearful for his life, the demaster wanted to turn back. James nodded and said, ”Mhm, this ce is


    filled with evil. You should leave.”


    “I’ll be waiting outside.” Saying that, the demaster stood up and hurriedly fled. James and Walganus


    looked at one another.


    James asked, “I’m able to disregard the curse’s power here because I possess a Demonic Body. But,


    why aren’t you affected as well?”


    Walganus smiled faintly and said, “I’m no ordinary man. I was able to appear on Galileo despite


    the seal on the. What can a mere curse do to me?” ‘True that.”


    James nodded.


    Since Walganus was full of secrets, James was not surprised that he was also able to disregard the


    curse’s power.


    He did not question him further.


    The two continued on their journey. The deeper they ventured, the stronger the curse’s power became.


    However, the curse’s power was unable to deal any damage to James and Walganus.


    The two continued straight ahead, traversing the barrenndscape for approximately six months before


    eventually arriving at the core region of the Barren Wastnd.


    There was a city there. However, the city was deste, and half of its walls had already copsed.


    The two entered the city.


    The city had been uninhabited for many years. The streets were silent without any signs of life. A


    gentle breeze blew and lifted theyer of umted dust on the ground.


    “Looks like this ce was once a bustling city.” Walking on the wide streets, James scanned his


    surroundings and said, “But, how did it be so deste? Besides, what’s with the curse’s power


    being here? How did thise to be?”


    A string of questions appeared in James’ mind.


    “Walganus, was some treasure here contaminated by a curse? Is that why this ce is full of the


    curse’s power?”


    Walganus shook his head and said, “I don’t know. Besides, I’m not interested in knowing about the


    origin of the curse. I only want to know the location of Sangria’s Imperial Jade Seal.”


    Wearing a bitter smile, James said, “I too wish to know the whereabouts of the


    Imperial Jade Seal. But, this city alone is huge, not to mention the size of the entire


    Barren Wastnd. How are we supposed to search for the Imperial Jade Seal?”


    At that moment, Walganus suddenly turned around and stared straight ahead.


    However, there was nothing there.


    James turned around and asked, “What’s wrong?”


    Wearing a grim expression, Walganus said, “I sensed something watching me.”


    James scanned his surroundings. The city waspletely deste. How would anyone be watching


    them?


    “Maybe you’re mistaken?” James asked.


    “No, absolutely not. There was certainly something watching me just now.” Walganus’ expression was


    grim. There was no way he was mistaken.


    “How creepy.”


    James looked at the deste city that had been uninhabited for many years as a chill ran down his


    spine.


    Seeing there was nothing behind him, Walganus turned around and looked straight ahead, saying,


    “Let’s walk around.”
