Chapter 1982

The black lotus made it hard for Brayden to speak clearly.

James was surprised to see Brayden so afraid.

He had merely unleashed his Supernatural Power.

James replied softly, “This is my Supernatural Power.”

“Y-You’re from the Demon Race! You’re the demon that stayed on Earth back then!!!”

James frowned.

Demon?

What demon stayed on Earth back then?

However, he was not in the mood to think about it.

There was a murderous intent on his face.

Thump!

Brayden knelt on the ground and repeatedly kowtowed, “Great Demon Lord, please don’t kill me. I will

be your slave for the rest of my life.”

He was terrified.

Demons were terrifying existences.

The whole world had fought against the demons in the past but was defeated. Without the several

powerhouses that sacrificed themselves, the Earth and the other thousands of worlds would have been

wiped out by the demons long ago.

“Die.” James’ face darkened.

With a thought, the black lotus quickly floated out.

It hovered over Brayden’s head, and black energy burst out from it. The energy fell from the sky and

submerged into Brayden’s body.

Boom!

Brayden’s body was torn apart and exploded. He was reduced to nothing, leaving no flesh or blood

behind. James quietly watched as it happened.

He never expected his Natal Lotus to be so strong.

Brayden was a Supernatural that had unlocked the Seventh Inner Gate. However, he was helpless

against his black lotus and perished.

‘Who’s the demon he mentioned?’

James retracted the black lotus and thought in his heart.

He knew his current physical body was made with the black lotus and was aware of its origin.

In ancient times, a powerhouse had left the Demonic Lotus behind after his death. The Earth’s

ancestors worked hard to obtain the Demonic Lotus.

“Is the demon the enemy that the custodian spoke of?” James murmured.

He put away his thoughts and quickly left the place, returning to the mountaintop.

Xandra remained sitting on the ground, urging her True Energy to heal her wounds.

Seeing James return, she could not help but stand up, asking, “How did it go, James?”

At that moment, James had retracted his energy and was completely different from the person with

Demonic Energy just now.

He smiled slightly and said, “I got rid of him.”

“You?” Xandra was shocked.

She knew the Seven Star Sect’s Young Master, Brayden’s strength.

He was a Supernatural that had unlocked the Seventh Inner Gate. He could dominate the Earth.

She was in disbelief that James could kill a powerhouse like that.

James smiled and said, “Everything’s settled. You’re safe now. Let me treat your injuries first.”

He took out Crucifier and began to treat Xandra’s injuries.

Soon, Xandra’s injuries were all healed.

The two sat on a boulder on the mountaintop.

The bright moon hung in the dark sky, and dazzling white light shone down on the Earth.

“My child, what happened in the past few years? Didn’t you die in Floret Palace? How are you still

alive?”

Xandra looked at James dotingly.

Now that her injuries were healed, her face was ruddy again. However, her hair was still messy, and

there were blood stains on her face, which made her look miserable.

“I didn’t die. I went into hiding and have been training hard for the past three years. I only recently came

out.”

James lied. Information about the custodian had to remain confidential, and he could not tell anyone,

not even his mother.
