In the inner courtyard of Jorvahn Temple, the Chaos Absinthe that the impostor James had used to entertain the real James and his companions was nearly consumed after several rounds of drinks and dishes The mutual probing and polite exchanges were winding down. However, the members of the Jademora Empire were not in high spirits due to the absence of Wyot and Xzavion. Even with the return of 'Empero Caden,' they spoke much less than usual.
After another round of toasts, the disguised James smiled and asked, "James, now that you've becan unbeatable force across the Greater Realms, what do you plan to do next?" At these words, everyone turned to look at the impostor James. James' question was the one they most wanted to ask.

"This secret return is to prepare you all for the upcoming tribulation." Upon hearing this, everyone was taken aback, each showing a look of surprise. Then, the impostor James began to craft his elaborate lie.
He started by describing the dangers he faced while traversing Zymurgy. He then spoke of the Five Path Emperors of the Forty-Ninth Heaven, who were vicious and controlled a vast amount of cultivation resources, suppressing the living beings of myriad realms and dictating their fates. Finally, he talked about the downfall of Emperor Qadeer, Emperor Zdravko, Emperor Cosimeon, and Emperor Stavros, leading to the involvement of the Nine Caeloros Gods of Xanadu Realm.
According to him, these four Path Emperors were merely pawns of the Nine Caeloros Gods who controlled Xanadu Realm, causing immense suffering and oppression to the living beings of myriad realms. More importantly, the reincarnation of Waitara Path was also a conspiracy by the Nine Caeloros Gods. To prevent the return of Waitara Path's Soremsia, allowing them to eternally control Haleth Realm, the Nine Caeloros Gods created a group of puppet gods, including those impersonating him and others.
Listening to his seemingly plausible tale, James exchanged glances with the gods beside him.
They all understood that the impostor was trying to make three points. First, he was the true and irreplaceable James. Second, if the real James returned, he could be labeled as a puppet created by the Caelords Gods, making it impossible for the members of myriad realms to believe in him. Third, by weaving such an elaborate lie, he could better control the myriad realms under James' identity, driving the members of myriad realms to serve him wholeheartedly.
Seeing through the impostor's schemes, Yianni was about to stand up when James stopped him.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmLooking at the impostor, James smiled and said, "James, from what you're saying, it seems we might be facing a great disaster?" "Indeed," the impostor took a deep breath and said softly. "Now, we can only prepare for the impending tribulation." "Master, how can we overcit?" Xatia asked.
The impostor hesitated, then looked unnaturally at James and his m companions, clearly wary of these powerhouses he did not recognize. James and the others noticed his hesitation and stood up with smiles. "James, we've had enough to drink. We'd like to stay in the Jademora Empire and the myriad realms for a while. There's no inconvenience, is there?"
Hearing this, the impostor James laughed and said, "We are brothers. Though I temporarily can't recall who you are, you can stay as long as you wish."
He then pointed to Rebella and said, "Vice Grand Steward, you know the empire best. Please find the best training dojos for our brothers and ensure they are well taken care of."
