Chapter 7514
Upon hearing Yianni''s words, a heavy silence fell over the room.
Meanwhile, the mysterious figure hidden behind the curtain remained wordless.
Seated, James and those who had altered their appearances exchanged looks.This text is property of N?/velD/rama.Org.
After a brief pause, Wyot nced at Yianni. "Mr. Yakov Latas, are you a close friend of His Majesty?"
"Are you prompting him?" Yianni shot a nce at Wyot.
"No," Wyot quickly waved his hands. "I''m just surprised."
At that moment, the mysterious individual finally spoke up.
"I don''t know any Yakov. The only close friend I have with thest name Latas is Yianni, the founder of Marciais Power."
The room fell into silence once more.
Yianniughed. "You''re a fraud!"
The powerhouses present were stunned at this usation. They looked up in shock.
"James never addresses me by my first name," Yianni articted carefully. "Because I created the Marciais Path, he has always shown respect by calling me Mr. Yianni."
Then, Yianni pointed at the figure behind the curtain.
"Who are you? How dare you impersonate James? How dare you sow chaos in the Jademora Empire? Are you trying to control all realms?" The room erupted into turmoil.
Truett and Rebe exchanged nces and then stood up, turning around.
"Mr. Yakov, believe you''ve
misunderstood him," Truett responded, enunciating each word. "For the sake of the living being''s'' future and their fate, he wentto Zymurgy and risked his life"
"In his battle with the Five Path Emperors of the Forty-Ninth Heaven, he nearly died before finally
prevailing. As a result, Re
lost part of
his soul memories. It''s reasonable."
Hearing this, Yianni''s brow furrowed.
James and Thea, seated, exchanged meaningful nces.
They realized that when the impostor first met Truett, Rebe, and yton, he used this excuse to cover all traces that could reveal his true identity.
iming to have lost some soul memories was a convenient ruse; it allowed him to dismiss any past inconsistencies.
It was apparent that this fake James
was well prepared. Even Truett and
Rebe trusted him. Yianni''s
usations might only heighten the tension rather than resolve it.
Thus, as Yianni was about to refute, James interrupted.
"Yakov, we''ve been away for a long time. We''re strangers here now. Since James no longer recognizes us, let''s leave."
Yianni''s expression changed at this.
Thea stood up, smiling. "That''s right. He''s now the emperor of the Jademora Empire, revered by all living beings. His status is exalted. Why would he remember us?"
She nced at James. "We should leave. It''s awkward to stay."
James grasped her intent immediately. He smiled and nodded. "Alright. Let''s return to where we came from."
Seeing that James and the others were about to depart, Truett and Rebe grew anxious.
Given their deeply unfathomable cultivation, they could be a tremendous asset to the Jademora Empire. If they left, they might instead be its enemies.
"Hold on!" Rebe called out, bowing.
James and the others, having taken only a few steps, stopped and turned around.
