Chapter 3953

As long as James could help him escape, Lord Samsong was willing to give him anything. James

taunted him. “Do you remember taking away the Light of Acme and leaving me to face the powerful

beast alone? I went through hell to kill that beast.”

Lord Samsong hurriedly explained himself, “You’ve got it all wrong! I actually wanted to go back to save

you, but I got trapped in a dangerous place and couldn’t escape. If I could leave, I would’ve definitely

gone back and helped you kill that beast.”

James did not believe a word from Lord Samsong’s mouth. He spoke nonchalantly, Tm giving you two

options.”

“What are they?” Lord Samsong looked at James.

James said, “I’ll leave you to fend for yourself. In your current state, there’s no way you can escape this

place.”

Lord Samsong hurriedly asked, “What’s the second option?”

James replied, “Submit to me and obey my orders. If you betray me, don’t expect a single shred of

mercy.”

“I…” Lord Samsong hesitated conflictingly. He was a Ninth Stage Lord, and the ruler of Triple Star

Welkin which was one of the Dark World’s Nine Heavens. Having to submit to another was a fate worse

than death.

As he weighed his options, James turned around and left the area.

As soon as James had disappeared, Quiomars reapproached as a ferocious monster and charged

toward Lord Samsong. Terrified, Lord Samsong shouted hysterically, “Don’t go, Forty-nine! Don’t leave

me! I’ll follow your orders! I’ll submit!”

James smirked, turned around, and walked forward. He instantly appeared before Lord Samsong and

faked an attack against Quiomars, who was disguised as a monster. Quiomars followed his cues and

pretended to be blasted away.

James looked at Lord Samsong, sitting weakly on the ground, and said, “I’m warning you, if you dare to

disobey me, it won’t end well for you.”

After speaking, James raised his hand, and mysterious sigils materialized. The sigils sank into

Samsong’s body.

A mighty Lord like Samsong immediately knew what the sigils were for. James now had control over his

soul and would be immediately notified if Samsong harbored

thoughts of betrayal. In that event, James could set off the sigil, and blow Samsong to bits instantly.

Samsong was terrified as he realized the consequences. However, there was no backing out at this

point. He had no choice but to comply with James.

Samsong immediately pledged his loyalty, “I won’t betray you.”

James raised his hand, and a dazzling light emerged from his palm. A large amount of Life Power

poured out and was absorbed into Samsong’s body. His injuries were healed instantly, and he regained

his strength shortly after.

Samsong stood up, stretched his muscles, and asked, ” Master, this is a very strange place. Are you

sure you can leave safely?”

James gently waved his hand and said, “You don’t need to address me as Master. My name is James.

You can just call me by name.”

Samsong replied, “Alright, Lord James.”

At that moment, Quiomars approached after returning to his original form. James hopped up and sat on

Quiomars’ back.

Quiomars quickly galloped.

James said, “Just follow me, and you’ll get out of this formation safely.”

Samsong glanced around him and shuddered after seeing the lingering souls in the distance. He

quickly followed behind James.

James rode on Quiomars’ back, raised his hand, and a beam of light burst forth from his fingers to

bombard the lingering souls in the distance.

“Agh…”

Despairing screams resounded in the air. The lingering souls trapped in the formations were

obliterated. Samsong was terrified after seeing James’ strength.

‘How strong is Lord James?’ thought Samsong.
