“There’s no need to rush”
A long-haired man wearing blue clothes sat on a rock and said nonchalantly, “We’ve guarded the Sacred Tree for more than six months, but this woman stole it from us. How can I not get it back? If no one returns it to us, we’ll kill her and then head to Lothian.”
“She said the Sacred Tree was taken away by her accomplices. She’s Langston’s daughter, and the person who took it must be from Lothian. Wouldn’t it be better for us just to attack Lothian?” Another person advised.
The man in a blue robe gently waved his hand. “We’re in no rush and can wait a few more days.”
“Understood.”
Since their Young Master had said so, the others did not dare insist anymore.
These people were from the Overworld and had come to Earth one year ago.
When they arrived on Earth, they searched for mutated plants born from Empyrean Spiritual Energy in the deep mountains and forests.
As Overworld cultivators, they would not want ordinary things.
The Sacred Tree they found in Mount Silbergh was magical.
It contained concentrated amounts of Empyrean Spiritual Energy.
They waited six months just for the tree to bloom and bear fruit. However, when the fruit was about to ripen, it was stolen from them.
They waited patiently.
Meanwhile, James was slowly approaching their location.
A journey of about fifty kilometers was nothing to him. Soon, he reached the mountaintop.
“Someone’s here, Sir.”
As soon as James appeared, he immediately attracted their attention, and everyone on the mountaintop stood up.
James strode over, and anger boiled in his heart when he saw Xandra covered in blood and tied to a tree.
“Where’s the Sacred Tree, brat?” a man asked coldly.
James looked at them coldly. However, he suppressed the anger in his heart and maintained a calm expression. Then, he asked calmly, “Who are you guys?”
To him, these people were already fated to die.
However, he wanted to figure out their identities before killing them.
James’ sudden appearance also caught Xandra’s attention.
She slowly opened her eyes. Although it was dark, she could still see James’ face clearly. After seeing James, she was shocked. Her throat moved slightly, and she parted her lips, wanting to say something. but no words came out.
One of the men shouted, “Kneel! How dare you not kneel before our Young Master?”
After roaring, he charged over and swung his leg at James’ knee, attempting to kick James to his knees.
James dodged suddenly and returned in front of the man.
The man was taken aback. Before he could react, James thrust his palm into the man, sending him flying with a terrifying palm attack. The man slammed into the ground in the distance and let out painful screams.
James was showing him mercy. Otherwise, he would have died.
“Huh…” The man in a blue robe looked at James solemnly.
His sect’s disciples were strong, and the weakest among them had unlocked three of the body’s shackles. The one sent flying by James was already a Supernatural.
However, this person had sent a disciple of the Supernatural rank flying with one move.
That meant he must have also been a Supernatural that had high attainments in his rank.
The only Supernatural martial artist on Earth he knew of was the Prince of Orchid Mountain. However, the person before him was evidently not the Prince of Orchid Mountain.
“Who are you, and why are you here? I’m the Young Master of the Seven Star Sect, Brayden Waber. Which Overworld sect are you from? Why haven’t I seen you before?”
Brayden thought James was not a martial artist from Earth but from the Overworld.
Although Brayden was strong, he was not a match for Xain and the other Overworld Outsiders. Still, he had unlocked the Seventh Inner Gate.
However, his heart palpitated uncontrollably as he was faced with James. It felt like the person before him was not human but a demon.
