Chapter 2238
Hearing that, James froze.
“Also, who are you exactly? Which family are you a disciple of?”
“As far as I’m aware, there is no powerful family by the name of the Cadens in the Ancient Realm.”
Yoan asked several questions in a row.
James started to ponder. He was not from the Ancient Realm. He was from Earth.
He was hesitating because he did not know if he should reveal his identity. Moreover, he was slightly wary.
Cultivators of the Sealed Realms regarded earthlings as enemies. James was concerned that once he revealed his identity,
Yoan’s attitude toward him would change.
“Why? Is it something difficult to talk about?” Yoan said, “If you can’t tell me, I won’t force you to.”
James reflected for a while. He found Yoan to be quite nice, so he thought that he should not hide the truth.
If Yoan’s attitude towards him changed after he revealed his identity, that could not be helped. “Sir, I’m not from the Ancient
Realm.” After some deliberation, James decided to reveal his identity.
Hearing that, Yoan was slightly taken aback. “What? You’re not from the Ancient Realm?”
“Mhm.” James nodded softly and said, “I’m from Earth, outside of the Sealed Realms.” James made the decision to tell the truth
to his master, who had been very kind to him. “Earth?” Yoan was thunderstruck when he heard that word.
“Yeah.” James did not hide anything and said candidly, “I was fortunate enough to acquire a cultivation method from antiquity. A
Sect Elder from the Divinity Sect appeared on Earth. He desired my cultivation method and intended to take it from me by force.
So, he captured me. With the help of a very capable person, I managed to escape from Earth. However, I didn’t expect to still
end up in the Ancient Realm.”
“Phew...” Yoan took a deep breath after hearing all this.
“The seal is frightening. Only weaker individuals can pass through the seal and reach Earth. Powerful people will have to pay a
hefty price to get out. Furthermore, no one from outside can enter the Sealed Realms. Smaller Sealed Realms are fine, though.
With the use of some extraordinary treasures, the force of the seal can be evaded.
“However, entering the Ancient Realm is impossible. The person who was assisting you in the shadows must be immensely
powerful.”
James did not say anything about Sophie.
Yoan looked at James arid asked, “To my understanding, there are Four Holy Beasts on Earth, but the Four Holy Beasts were
fed with Demonic Energy. It was to target the Supreme Spiritual
Root on Earth in this era. However, besides the Supreme Spiritual Root, other cultivators will also be affected. Did you consume
the blood of the Holy Beast?”
“Mhm.” James nodded and said, “I did. But I wasn’t affected by the Demonic Energy.”
“You don’t understand.” Furrowing his brow, Yoan said, “It has no effect on you right now because you’re still very weak. Once
you reach the Sage Rank, the Demonic Energy will become active.”
Given that his body was a Demonic Body, James was not at all concerned about this. He was even less concerned about Thea,
as the Demonic Energy inside her body had been purified by the custodian.
“Alright. Let’s stop talking about this.” Changing the subject, Yoan said, “Regardless of where you’re from, I am your master since
you joined the Welkin Academy and chose me. I’ll keep you safe. However, don’t divulge the fact that you’re from Earth.
Everyone in this world despises earthlings.”
“Yes, sir. Thank you for the reminder.”
James nodded his head in acknowledgment.
Yoan also stopped inquiring about James’ cultivation method.
After that, James continued to fight with the Celestial Tiger. Using the Celestial Tiger’s force
to improve his body and stimulate the Helios Pill’s power.
