Chapter 2009
Marcello left alongside his entourage.
After they left, his subordinate asked, "Young Master, how could you gift him such a precious token?"
Marcello briefly contemplated before saying, "He has the Demonic Body, so he'll be ostracized by humans sooner
or later. When that comes to pass, he'll become an asset to the Demon Race. Giving the token to him in advance is
akin to paving the way for him. Once he reaches a dead end, joining us will be his only choice."
"How wise of you..."
Meanwhile, Marcello took out the pearl once more, which had returned to normal. 'The Supreme Spiritual Root... I
never expected that there would be someone who possesses the Supreme Spiritual Root by James' side.
However, I can’t make a move on her for now. I should bide my time," he murmured.
Then, he waved his arm, and powerful True Energy gathered in his palm. True Energy entered the mysterious pearl,
and the black dot disappeared. Then, he catalyzed True Energy and imbued it within the mysterious pearl once

He looked in a direction. 'There’s another Supreme Spiritual Root near Mount Bane?”
Marcello intended to leave. However, he realized that someone who possessed the Supreme Spiritual Root had
approached Mount Bane. So, he decided against leaving and waited patiently.
The night passed silently.
The next day...
After making her way here in a hurry, Maxine finally arrived at Mount Bane before nine in the morning.
She looked at the mountain range before her and murmured, "Now, I just have to head over to Mount Bane. If I
enter unrestricted, it would mean that the message on the forum is real and James is still alive. He really did
negotiate with the Overworld and advanced the interests of we earthlings."
Just as she was about to continue on her journey, a group of people appeared. It was Marcello and his entourage
who had been waiting patiently for a night.
Upon seeing Maxine, Marcello looked at the pearl for confirmation before saying smilingly, "What a beautiful
woman... I was almost entranced by her beauty."
Then, he walked over to Maxine.
The moment Maxine saw them, she immediately tensed up. After all, only those from the Overworld would appear
around Mount Bane.
Marcello walked over to her and said smilingly, "Hello there, beautiful. My name is Marcello Mariano, pleased to
make your acquaintance."
Maxine looked at him and furrowed her eyebrows, asking, "Can I help you?"
"Oh, it's nothing. I just need you to follow us along for a while."
Maxine's face darkened as she staggered back.
At that moment, a man behind Marcello instantly appeared before her. Before she could even react, her
acupuncture points were struck, and her cultivation base was sealed.
"Wh-What do you think you're doing?” Her face paled.
Marcello walked over to her with a slight grin on his face and caressed her cheek, "What a beautiful face...”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThough Maxine tried to break free, her acupuncture points were struck, and her cultivation base was sealed. So,
she could not move a muscle.
"Release me now!" she yelled.
"Who do you think you're talking to, b*tch?!"
Then, a man slapped her across the face.
Smack!
Seeing this, Marcello’s expression darkened as he looked at his subordinate. Then, he raised his arm, and powerful
energy gathered in his palm before he struck him in the chest.
His subordinate was immediately sent flying and collapsed heavily to the ground while vomiting a mouthful of blood.
Then, he lay there on the ground motionless.
Marcello had taken his subordinate’s life. His other subordinates remained silent.
Marcello said coldly, "Remember to treat those who possess the Supreme Spiritual Root with utmost reverence.
They will be the future leaders of our race."
"Understood," they spoke in unison.
Maxine stared at Marcello, unable to comprehend his actions.
