Chapter 5709

Everyone returned to the Heavenly Court.

James and Thea sat together in a lounge of one of the Heavenly Court's palaces.

Thea asked confusedly, “Who were those people? Why are they trying to capture me? What kind of

place is the Theognostos? What’s inside the Halcyon Road? What kind of force are they?” James

frowned at her series of questions.

He knew about the Halcyon Road.

It was just a passage to leave the Dark World.

However, he was clueless about Theognostos from the Halcyon Road.

In the original Anceralos World, there was only a world created by the various forces to guard the

Halcyon Road.

Now, James was also curious about what had happened after he and Xayvion perished.

Why did the Halcyon Road disappear? James could not answer Thea’s questions.

He looked at her, rubbed her head, and said smilingly, “Don’t worry.

Everything will be fine.” Thea felt relieved by James’ comforting words.

In the Halcyon Road, there was a world with a massive spiritual mountain.

On its apex was a grand mansion, whereas at the foot of the mountain was a stone table with an

engraved word— Theognostos.

Inside Theognostos’ main hall, a man knelt on the ground and reported, “I’m sorry, my lord.

When trying to capture Thea, we were blocked by a man who could cast the Obsidian Body.

A handsome man sat in the highest seat, and a beautiful woman stood beside him.

The woman said surprisedly, “The Obsidian Body is history.

Only two people were capable of casting it, including James and Xayvion.

Could it be...” The woman looked at the man beside her.

The man said, “Impossible.

James chased Xayvion into the Anceralos Era.

I had deliberately waited to take action against Thea while he was gone.

I didn’t want to make it difficult for him.” The woman asked doubtfully, “Could it be he’s really alive?”

After thinking for a while, the man said, “Go pay them a visit.” The woman asked, “If James didn’t die,

did he return from the Anceralos Era?” The man replied, “Even if he returned, we must capture Thea.

We can’t let her continue to grow.

Otherwise, she’ll become a threat to the Dark World.” After thinking for a while, the woman said, “If

James returned, capturing Thea would be tough.

Unless you kill him, it won’t be possible to capture her.” Hearing this, the man fell into a dilemma.

He gently rubbed his forehead, thought for a while, and said, “With your current strength, you should be

able to trap him for a while.

Capture Thea first, then we'll explain it to him later.” “Alright.” The woman disappeared after receiving

the order.

James sat at the Thirty-Third Heaven in the Human Race’s Heavenly Court.

He released his Zen throughout the Dark World.

Under his induction, he found that the Halcyon Road’s entrance had reappeared in the deepest part of

the Dark World.

James wanted to venture the Halcyon Road again to see what had appeared in it.

However, he could not afford to leave.

He had to wait in the Heavenly Court for Theognostos’ Lord to arrive.

He was curious to find out who led Theognostos.

Meanwhile, many people had gathered inside a certain manor of the Heavenly Court.

The group consisted of friends of either James or Thea.

Additionally, their children were also present.

Hetsema sat on a chair and said puzzledly, “What the hell is going on? The Anceralos World had just

recovered, and we’re supposed to be ushering in a great era.

Yet, a bunch of powerhouses suddenly appeared out of nowhere.” “Perhaps Dad knows the truth but

didn’t tell us about it,” said Jacopo.

Winnie intervened, saying, “Don’t worry about this stuff.

Our cultivation ranks are too low and can’t be of much help.

We can only wait patiently and focus on improving.”
