James stood up and loosened his muscles.
He was no longer in a state of post-battle exhaustion and was full of energy.
After stretching his body, he glanced at Mount Heavenly Path ahead. Stepping forward, he walked toward Mount Heavenly Path.
In Herschel Palace, Mount Heavenly Path, an unfamiliar man appeared in the main hall.
He wore a plain grey robe and had an average look. He appeared to be around thirty years old. On his forehead, there was a mysterious sigil. The sigil looked like a flame.
“Master,” the man spoke in a dull voice.
“Quinn, I’ll leave James to you. No matter what means you use, you must kill him outside of Mount Heavenly Path.”
Herschel issued a death order.
“Got it,” answered Quinn Zalesky before asking, “Shouldn’t my brother fight against him first? Why am I fighting him first?”
With a dark expression, Herschel responded, “Gutierre has already admitted defeat. I’m afraid Jackson won’t be his match, so I’m sending you directly. You can’t admit defeat. If James doesn’t die, you’re the one who’ll die. Do you understand?”
“I understand.”
Then, Quinn disappeared from the main hall.
Glancing at Herschel, Thea could tell that he was panicking. Her confusion grew as she had no idea why Herschel was adamant about killing James.
What kind of unresolvable grudge was there between Herschel and James?
Outside Mount Heavenly Path, a man was advancing slowly. Each step he took left a footprint. At this moment, he had already entered Mount Heavenly Path’s territory.
At the mountain range ahead, there was a thousand-meter-high stone tablet. Several vivid characters were engraved on the stone tablet.
“Mount Heavenly Path.”
These few words contained the Supreme Path Rhyme.
When James arrived at the entrance of Mount Heavenly Path, he realized that a man was standing before the stone tablet.
The man wore a grey robe and looked normal with a strange flame-like sigil on his forehead. It seemed to be burning.
Halting his steps, James stared at the person from afar.
“Is he Jackson Zalesky, the second in the Martial Ranking?” James mumbled.
Then, he walked over to the person.
Meanwhile, the living beings following behind James stopped in their tracks. They were all looking at the person before the stone tablet.
“He isn’t Jackson.”
“He’s Jackson’s brother, Quinn. He’s champion in the Martial Ranking.”
“Why is James going against the champion in the Martial Ranking directly? Is Jackson not going to fight?”
Many people were confused.
“Stop,” came an indifferent voice.
Although the voice was dull, it sounded like an order. Even James was surprised when he heard it. He wanted to move forward, but his legs did not want to obey. Involuntarily, he stopped walking.
James was startled.
‘He’s strong. His words sounded like an order. Even I can’t resist it.’
He took in a deep breath. Stopping, he looked at the average-looking Quinn and asked, “Who are you?”
Quinn glanced at James and said, “A dead person has no right to know my name.”
“Hah.” James found his words amusing. The powerhouses in the Martial Ranking were crazy.
“Gutierre also said that the last time, but he still lost to me. He even admitted defeat,” spoke James.
However, Quinn responded, “I watched the battle. Even though you injured Gutierre, Gutierre did not use all his strength. If he were to go all out against you, you might not be his match.”
Quinn fought with Gutierre several times before.
Thus, he knew Gutierre’s strength. Based on the power James showed, James might not be able to truly defeat Gutierre.
“Is that so?” James smiled.
The two continued to stare at each other.
On the other hand, the powerhouses in the distance went crazy.
“What a surprise.”
