Chapter 2684

James looked at the astonished Yuvan at the mountainside and asked,” Can I go through now?”

Yuvan stepped aside and made way for James to pass.

James continued climbing the stairs toward the mountaintop without hesitation.

Soon, he reached the mountaintop where many of the Blade Sect’s powerhouses were gathered.

The Blade Sect’s Leader approached him with a bright smile. “I heard from the Great Elder that a highly

skilled swordsman will come to our sect. I was skeptical at first, but I’m convinced you’re really a skilled

swordsman after witnessing that.”

James said humbly, “You’re flattering me, Sir.”

The Blade Sect’s Leader said, “I’m the Blade Sect’s Leader. My name is Yash Babington.

James greeted him respectfully, “Mr. Babington.”

Yash asked, “Did you come to our sect to see our sword techniques?”

James fell into thought.

His purpose for coming to the Blade Sect was to retrieve the Crepe Myrtle Divine Sword. Since he had

already met the Sect Leader, he did not hide his intention.

After briefly considering it, James shook his head and said, “The reason I visited the Blade Sect isn’t to

see your sword techniques.”

Taken aback, Yash asked, “Oh? Then what brings you here?”

James replied honestly, ‘To tell you the truth, I’m Sangria’s Emperor and the Crepe

Myrtle Sword Pavilion’s Sword Master.

‘The Crepe Myrtle Sword Pavilion used to have a Divine Sword, but it was lost many years ago.

“In the past, the Crepe Myrtle Sword Pavilion was destroyed, and our Divine Sword was lost. I have got

hold of information that the person who had taken the Crepe Myrtle Divine Sword is the Seafolk’s

Grand Patriarch.” James explained his intentions truthfully.

“Outrageous!”

After hearing James speak, a reprimanding voice resounded.

One of the Blade Sect’s elders expressed his dissatisfaction. He stepped forward and criticized James,

“Do you know what you’re saying? The Crepe Myrtle Divine Sword is our Grand Patriarch’s sword!

What does it have to do with the Crepe Myrtle Sword Pavilion?”

James gently waved his hand and said, “Sir, please calm down and let me finish.”

The Blade Sect’s Leader, Yash, waved his hand and said, “Let him speak.”

Only then did the elder step back.

James continued to explain, “As we all know, there’s a curse on Sangria that prevents men from

surviving after a month.

“Moreover, this world is cursed, and no living being can live over a million years.

“I came to find the Crepe Myrtle Divine Sword to lift the curse on this world. Once it’s lifted, living

beings will be able to make it past a million years.”
