Chapter 4497

Henry looked sacred and mysterious as a golden radiance emitted from his body.

Many of the powerhouses gathered in the hall were envious at the sight.

The Heavenly Lord of the Heavenly Court was a high status among the humans. A Heavenly Lord

would occupy a tremendous amount of luck, only inferior to the Heavenly Court’s Lord.

Moreover, a Heavenly Lord could borrow the Heavenly Path’s Powers.

Jacopo continued with the appointment. “Sophie.”

A slender, beautiful woman wearing a blue dress walked out of the crowd and got down on one knee.

“Yes, my Lord.”

Sophie used to be James’ mentor and was highly respected by him. Despite that, she followed proper

protocol before the Heavenly Court’s Lord.

Jacopo waved his hand, and a powerful force emerged to pull Sophie back to her feet. He said

smilingly, “As a Heavenly Lord, you need not kneel before me.”

Sophie stood straight, awaiting the announcement.

“You’ve been nominated by my parents and have received the Heavenly Path’s blessing as well. I now

name you as the Heavenly Lord of the Second Heaven.”

A golden light immediately shone down on her. Sophie went through a transformation, and her aura

increased tremendously.

“I object!” called out a voice from the hall.

Everyone immediately turned in the direction of the source.

A man wearing a black robe strode forward.

It was the Omnipotent Lord, the former Lord of the First Universe.

Jacopo looked at the Omnipotent Lord and asked, “What is the reason you object?”

The Omnipotent Lord replied, “She is not qualified to be a Heavenly Lord. Her cultivation rank is too low

to be worthy of such a title.”

When James was still weak, Sophie was indeed considered a powerhouse.

However, she had been improving rather slowly. After such a long time, she had not reached the Quasi

Acme Rank yet and was still a Macrocosm Ancestral God.

The Omnipotent Lord looked at the other powerhouses in the hall and laughed aloud, “If a Macrocosm

Ancestral God like her can become a Heavenly Lord, everyone here is qualified. Instead of the Thirty-

Three Heavens, why don’t you create a Three-Million Heavens and make everyone here a Heavenly

Lord?”

James and Thea silently watched from aside.

“Presumptuous!” Jacopo’s face darkened. He waved his hand and unleashed a powerful force. Unable

to withstand the pressure, the Omnipotent Lord was forced to his knees.

Jacopo shouted, “After the battle in the Primordial Realm Era, the humans had entered a dark age.

Who led the humans back to glory? It was the Human Race’s matron, Thea, as well as James. During

this period, there have been many obstacles. When my father was still weak, Sophie was the one that

guided him. She saved him time and time again, even almost sacrificing her life for him.

“Without Sophie, my father would have never achieved what he did today.

“And without my father, the humans would not have peace.

“If Sophie is not qualified, then who is?

‘The Designation Book is a list of names nominated by my parents. However, they will have to be

approved by the Heavenly Path. Since her name has remained in the Designation Book, she has

already obtained the Heavenly Path’s blessings.”

Jacopo’s assertive voice resounded through the hall, leaving the Omnipotent Lord speechless.

After making his point, Jacopo withdrew his force. The Omnipotent Lord was relieved from the pressure

and stood up from the ground. His face was pale as he silently returned to the crowd.

James’ smiled faintly at the sight and tightly held onto Thea’s hand. He was satisfied with how Jacopo

handled the situation.
