The only woman among them spoke calmly, "What intriguesthe most is how he managed to turn the ice-cold Ying governor so devoted to him." James slammed the Chaos Absinthe onto the table and looked at them smilingly. "Why is there only there of you? Weren't they supposed to be eightt?" The old man with sideburns replied smilingly, "To be precise, it's seven. We know about Clayton's ties with you, so we weren't expecting his help." The middle-aged man scoffed, "What do you mean, Lord Xenova? He contributed significantly." The woman chimed in with a sneer, "He's right. Without Clayton, we wouldn't have found the Chosen One so easily." She looked at James and said mockingly, "Your old friend is pretty strong and also very arrogant. However, he is a little dumb. You have the HongrHidden Bead, allowing you to alter your appearance and conceal your aura. It would be impossible to detect you.
"It's unfortunate he got too excited upon seeing you and exposed you." James smiled lightly and replied, "I suppose I should thank him later. It was becoming rather uncomfortable to move around under a disguise." After speaking, James reverted to his original, striking appearance.

The old man with sideburns clasped his hands respectfully and said, "Allowto introduce myself. I'm Xenova Aldwyn from the Thirty-Sixth Heaven's Ananda Temple." James nodded in acknowledgment, then turned his attention to the disgruntled middle-aged man. "Cedric Stormborn from the Thirty-Sixth Heaven's Shivam Temple.

"I'm James, but I go by the nicknForty-nine sometimes. Since you're here, I'll entertain whatever way you'd like to fight." The tlooked at each other after hearing his words.
Afterward, Xenova twirled his beard and asked, "Do you love fighting that much?" James shrugged and asked, "What else could you possibly want from me?" Cedric sneered, "Do you even have the strength to fight us? Even though you're the Chosen One, you might not be able to stand against three opponents at the Yitro Daeclon Rank.
James smiled indifferently, grabbed his Chaos Absinthe, and said, "I'm not interested in talking nonsense. If it's a fight you want, then hurry up. My patience is running out." "Arrogant!" Cedric stood up abruptly.
Just when he was about to take action, Slyvia stopped him.
Slyvia said anxiously, "As long as you hand over Morgott's spirit and cwith us to the Tai Chi Grand Temple to explain it, we'll still acknowledge you as the Chosen One."
