Chapter 2315
The Almighty Dragon General
Lucifer did not believe Jamesâ words. Even if his father had died, the Primordial Spirit he left behind
should have been invincible. How did a guy who appeared out of nowhere manage to refine it?
âLeave us for now.â Lucifer turned and looked at the Protector.
âUnderstood.â
The Protector did not linger for long and hurriedly left.
Meanwhile, Lucifer released James, who collapsed to the ground. Then, he got up with great difficulty
and sat in a lotus position on the ground.
Lucifer, who was standing beside him, asked, âWeâre alone now, so tell me the truth. How did you
obtain this physical body?â
James furrowed his eyebrows. He had no idea what Lucifer was thinking of. Regardless, he stood no
chance against him in a fight.
âLucifer, your father is long dead. Although the Demonic Lotus was once your fatherâs Natal Primordial
Spirit, it has long dispersed. The Demonic Lotus is now merely an object,â James spoke softly.
âAnswer my question!â Lucifer roared. His Demonic Energy was so terrifying that it even made Jamesâ
blood run cold.
James took a deep breath and said, âI told you I was once dead. However, someone saved me and
used the Demonic Lotus to reshape my physical body. Thatâs how I came back to life.â
Hearing this, Luciferâs knees gave way. âThereâs no more hope⦠Now that the Demonic Lotus is lost,
my father can never be resurrected.â He was dejected.
James sat on the ground and rested for some time before getting up with great difficulty and looking at
Lucifer, saying, âDo you intend to take back the Demonic Lotus? Iâve already cultivated a new Natal
Demonic Lotus.â
Lucifer glanced at James, saying, âThe Demonic Lotus has perfectly merged with your soul. This
means that you were predestined to obtain the Demonic Lotus and that you have my fatherâs
acknowledgment. Otherwise, your soul wouldnât have merged with the Demonic Lotus flawlessly no
matter how powerful you are.â
Then, he stood up and headed outside. James followed suit as many cultivators were imprisoned here.
Outside, the Protector waited.
Soon, the two walked out of the room.
âMaster Lucifer⦠Masterâ¦â The Protector looked at the two.
Lucifer said, âWe shouldnât stay here for long. Order our men to retreat.â
âWh-What about the cultivators in the dungeons?â The Protector looked at Lucifer before glancing at
James.
James said, âYou should leave first and remove the Magic Circle. Iâll think of a way to save them.â
âUnderstood.â The Protector nodded.
Then, under his order, everyone hurriedly retreated. Soon, they were out of the stone cavern. Outside,
the Protector knelt.
âMaster Lucifer, my ancestor is a Senior General under His Majestyâs banner. My duty is to wait here
and resurrect you.â
Lucifer gazed into the distance. His memories were still stuck in ancient times. He remembered the
words his father said to him before they parted.
âLucifer, Iâll be sealing you away. Sleep peacefully. By the time you awake, youâd have reached the
brightest era of our times. You do not belong to this era. You belong to the era countless millennia in
the future.â
âFather, I wonât let you down.â
Lucifer clenched his fists.
âMaster, that person has a Supreme Token of the Demon Race,â the Protector said.
Lucifer nodded slightly and said, âItâs understandable. He must have attracted the attention of some
among the Demon Race. That token must have been given to him by a core member of the Demon
Race. Pay no heed to him. We should leave at once.â
Then, Lucifer left alongside the members of the Demon Race.
James walked out of the camp. Seeing that everyone had left, he returned to the stone cavern.
As the Demon Race left, the Magic Circle disappeared. James, however, did not act impulsively.
Instead, he waited outside and waited for another day to pass.
Then, he released Henry, Delainey, and the cultivators who were being pursued from the Celestial
Abode.
He looked at the cultivators and said coldly, âSince youâre safe now, you may leave. Do not tell anyone
anything about the Celestial Abode. Or elseâ¦â
