Chapter 3949

Xerxes asked, “What’s the second plan?

James said, ‘The second plan will be enacted once the Dark World is united. We’ll need to find the

remaining Universe Seeds and enkindle them. Then, we must merge them to form a world that’s as

powerful as the Primordial Realm was during its prime.”

As he explained, James’ expression gradually turned grim.

“I still don’t know how strong the Watchers hiding in the Dark World are and if they have already

reached the Acme Rank. If we act rashly, our plans may fail, and our previous efforts will be for

naught.”

“Then how do you plan to carry them out?” asked Sienna.

These matters were complex and were not simply a conflict between forces. It would affect every

inhabitant of the Dark World and the twelve universes. If anything unexpected were to happen, Yukia’s

efforts throughout this whole time would have been wasted.

James said, “I don’t know where Thea is right now. If she was with us, everything would be so much

easier. I don’t know the exact details of her plan, so I don’t want to act rashly and attract our enemy’s

attention. Suppose the Watchers discover our plans and report the information to the Ten Great Races,

they would swiftly dispatch powerhouses and easily obliterate us.”

James’ lips were drawn taut. He had formulated two plans which could be carried out concurrently.

However, he was also worried about interfering with Thea’s initial plans. He was worried about arousing

the enemy’s suspicion, so he hesitated to take action.

Sienna asked, “Should we take action or not?”

James rubbed his temples frustratedly. Although he had learned some things about the Primordial

Realm Era, there were still many details he was unsure of.

What exactly were Thea’s plans?

Also, how many Watchers lurked in the Dark World, monitoring the situation?

An idea suddenly formed in James’ mind and he exclaimed excitedly, “How about this? The Watchers

hidden in the Dark World were searching for Thea this whole time and she didn’t reveal herself

because she wasn’t fully recovered. This was why she was afraid to show herself. If so, what if we

created a fake Thea to draw the Watchers out of hiding?”

“Once these Watchers expose themselves, we’ll be able to follow them and capture them in one fell

swoop.”

After hearing James’ plan, Sienna nodded lightly and said, ” This is the best we can do considering all

we know at the moment. How will we fight these Watchers with our strength, though?”

James considered the question for a moment and said, ” Perhaps these Watchers aren’t very strong.”

Xerxes glanced at James and asked, “Oh? Why do you say so?”

James said, ‘These Watchers spread rumors about the Acme Path to lure three hundred Ninth Stage

Lords to the Dark World’s Unknown Region. This led to the Dark Strife. They only took out everyone

after both sides had sustained severe injuries. They wouldn’t have gone through all that effort if they

were truly strong enough.”

Sienna balked at James’ explanation.

“Seriously, James?! We’re talking about three hundred Ninth Stage Lords here. Even if they were

wounded, it’s terrifying that these Watchers could take out all three hundred of them. There aren’t even

thirty Ninth Stage Lords left in the Dark World, let alone three hundred Ninth Stage Lords.”

“Personally, I don’t think they’re strong. Just look at Quiomars. His cultivation rank is at the peak of the

Lord Rank’s Ninth Stage. Yet, a Ninth Stage Lord isn’t able to scratch him. I think he’s capable of taking

on and killing a few dozen Ninth Stage Lords,” countered James.

James explained his reasoning. Xerses felt that James’ words were reasonable. However, Quiomars’

strength alone would not be able to eliminate all the Watchers.

To James, the Watchers were not strong. However, these Watchers threatened the Dark World’s and

Illuminated World’s inhabitants. They were powerhouses capable of destroying the Dark World.”

Sienna said, “I think we need a more conservative approach.

The Watchers don’t seem strong, but that’s only if they go against you. I admit you’re powerful now, but

can you really fight every single Water? Before we understand how to deal with them, it’s best not to

act recklessly.”

Sienna expressed her opinion.
