"General!" Quattro roared without any warning, then suddenly hugged James.


    The sight instantly dumbfounded the women. In their eyes, Quattro was like an untouchable god. It''s


    too abnormal for him to lose hisposure in front of others.


    Quattro clung onto James with tears and a runny nose. He cried, "We missed you so much, General. I


    thought you would nevere back!"


    "Do you know what we''ve gone through all these years? I could hardly eat and sleep, worried about


    your safety."


    "We''ve sworn to live and die together. There had been no news from you after leaving for the Fodtt


    Land. We even erected a memorial tablet and set up a tomb for you. I never expected your miraculous


    return."


    Hearing Quattro''s exaggerations, James pushed him away and said, "What kind of nonsense are you

    spouting?"


    Quattro wiped his tears and said, "Nonsense? We missed you but had no idea where to search.


    Moreover, we bear the heavy responsibilities you''ve delegated to US."


    "You missed me?" James pointed to the women around them and asked," Was I in your thoughts more


    than them?"


    Quattro frowned and looked at the women. He suddenly realized what James was implying and quickly


    said, "You''ve misunderstood, General. It’s not what it looks like."


    James asked yfully, "What else could it be? You should know the boundaries I''ve set, right?"


    Quattro said hurriedly. "Of course, of course! I never forced them into anything. They act on their free


    will."


    "Did they sleep with you willingly?" James rolled his eyes.


    Quattro was unable to answer confidently to his question.


    The group of women, however, quickly surrounded James and expressed their dissatisfaction.


    "Who are you? How dare you talk to our marshal like that? Of course, we''re with him voluntarily. So


    many others wish for the chance but aren''t lucky like us."


    "Our Marshal is so handsome. Although you''re also quite charming, you shouldn''t be disrespectful


    toward him. That''s rude!"


    "He worked so hard for his current aplishments. He saved US from the Dark World and allowed


    US a better opportunity in life. We''re thankful toward him."


    "That''s right. We’re honored just being able to be with him. We''d agree without hesitation if he''d asked


    US to be his cultivation partner."


    James was stunned by their loud shouts.


    Quattro raised his hand and pped each of the women. In just an instant, the women’s cheeks had


    bright p marks. "Presumptuous! How dare you behave so rudely toward him?! Do you have a death


    wish?"


    The group of women hurriedly knelt on the floor.


    James waved his hand at Quattro and said, "Hey. There''s no need to get angry." After speaking, James


    walked over to a chair and sat down. "Since they speak of you so high, it shows your prestige here is


    pretty high. That’s good."


    Quattro hurriedly approached James and said, "They''re trying to kill me.


    I''ve never thought about iming any achievements. I..."


    James said smilingly, "We''re brothers. Exining makes it seem like we''re not that close. How many


    people are out of the Dark World, and who''s in charge?"


    Quattro raised his hand, and a dozen recording orbs appeared before James.


    James shook his head and said, "I don’t care about these details. Instead, tell me how many of our


    Dark World acquaintances are already here?"
