Chapter 6935 'The situation has gotten trickier for US, James." Wiktor looked at him intently.
'The release of the unorthodox sects' and factions' men, especially, could bring utter chaos and destruction unilaterally to those in Zymurgy and all living beings.
'They would still cause a ruckus at Zymurgy even if you didn't join them..." "Who was it that had released the unorthodox sects' and factions' men?" James interrupted yet again, "Have you guys looked into it? Was Xanthakos involved in it?" Wiktor shook his head. "Um... We are still investigating that. Now..." 'That's the problem." James said monotonously, "Will you guys truly ever be able to do that? "The Five Path Emperors have the highest status and power in Zymurgy currently. Can you really find out which of them are the bad guys under such conditions? "Even if you did, would the group of you have the ability and determination to exterminate those men?" James' questions rendered Wiktor speechless.
"During my journey to perfect my cultivation, I've made many friends." James continued, "However, I still hold on to my beliefs even now.

However, Wiktor knew from the moment he met James that his preparation was pointless.
After a brief pause, he conjured a halved orb shining with the Wama Divine Light on his hand.
James spotted the object and frowned slightly.
"I know I can't convince someone such as you who has a firm belief." Wiktor looked up from the orb. 'Therefore, I would like to propose a deal using this pearl.
"You probably recognize it since you already have Xyloria Tai Chi's, Xyloria Tirta's, and Xyloria Taishi's pearls. You're still short of two out of the Five Spirits." 'That's half of a pearl?" James narrowed his eyes.
"My master needs the other half to help monitor things at the Forty-Ninth Heaven for now. That's only reasonable, right?" Wiktor responded, "Besides, Xyloria Taishi, Tirta, and Tai Chi have all perished. On the contrary, my master is still alive.
'This half pearl is equivalent and even better than those three pearls you have combined. It's good enough for your Five Spirits Integration." James gave a slight shrug. "So, what is it that you have in mind for the deal?" "Hand over the two Chosen Ones, the two emperors, Yehria, and Morgott to me." Wiktor requested straightforwardly, "In addition, you'll promise not to approach the members of the unorthodox sects and factions." James' brows lifted. An enigmatic smile played across his face. "You have no use for those captives." Wiktor sighed softly. "If you agree to the deal, we can use this to stop the rumors accusing you of working with Morgott to harm the Chosen Ones and emperors.
"Our people can also support you by saying..." "You can have the two Chosen Ones and two emperors." James began," However, I won't agree to the rest of your request." Wiktor retorted, "You..." "Morgott is my friend, whereas Yehria is my enemy," James said in a steely voice, "I will never turn against a good friend. On the other hand, I can't forgive what she has done to the people I care about.
"I won't change my mind on this." Wiktor slowly closed his eyes. It appeared he, Wesley, and the Xyloria Taichi had very little understanding of James' character. James was someone who would live by his discipline and do what he felt was right. He believed in the importance of having great power.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmWiktor sighed again, i'll modify the terms, then. In exchange for the pearl, I will secretly bring you to the Forty-Ninth Heaven. "You can find the answers to the questions you have all this while." James simply smiled and said nothing.
Just then, the Taishi's Primordial Spirit Tablet floating in the air shone brightly with colorful lights.
The lights dimmed and disappeared a few seconds later. Curiously, the tablet had transformed into a dull, ordinary rock.
Judging by what had happened, James could tell that Silver had successfully entered the Great Historial Land. She also took the Primordial Spirit Tablet with her.
With that, Zymurgy had lost Taishi for good.
Meanwhile, Wiktor let out a deep sigh. "Congratulations, James. You've earned Taishi's full support. However, I must remind you that the only way to resolve the crisis..."
