Chapter 2315
Lucifer did not believe James’ words. Even if his father had died, the Primordial Spirit he left behind should have been invincible.
How did a guy who appeared out of nowhere manage to refine it?
“Leave us for now.” Lucifer turned and looked at the Protector.
“Understood.”
The Protector did not linger for long and hurriedly left.
Meanwhile, Lucifer released James, who collapsed to the ground. Then, he got up with great difficulty and sat in a lotus position
on the ground.
Lucifer, who was standing beside him, asked, “We’re alone now, so tell me the truth. How did you obtain this physical body?”
James furrowed his eyebrows. He had no idea what Lucifer was thinking of. Regardless, he stood no chance against him in a
fight.
“Lucifer, your father is long dead. Although the Demonic Lotus was once your father’s Natal Primordial Spirit, it has long
dispersed. The Demonic Lotus is now merely an object,” James spoke softly.
“Answer my question!” Lucifer roared. His Demonic Energy was so terrifying that it even made James’ blood run cold.
James took a deep breath and said, “I told you I was once dead. However, someone saved me and used the Demonic Lotus to
reshape my physical body. That’s how I came back to life.”
Hearing this, Lucifer’s knees gave way. “There’s no more hope... Now that the Demonic Lotus is lost, my father can never be
resurrected.” He was dejected.
James sat on the ground and rested for some time before getting up with great difficulty and looking at Lucifer, saying, “Do you
intend to take back the Demonic Lotus? I’ve already cultivated a new Natal Demonic Lotus.”
Lucifer glanced at James, saying, “The Demonic Lotus has perfectly merged with your soul. This means that you were
predestined to obtain the Demonic Lotus and that you have my father’s acknowledgment. Otherwise, your soul wouldn’t have
merged with the Demonic Lotus flawlessly no matter how powerful you are.’
Then, he stood up and headed outside. James followed suit as many cultivators were imprisoned here. Outside, the Protector
waited.
Soon, the two walked out of the room.
“Master Lucifer... Master...” The Protector looked at the two.
Lucifer said, “We shouldn’t stay here for long. Order our men to retreat.”
“Wh-What about the cultivators in the dungeons?” The Protector looked at Lucifer before glancing at
James.
James said, “You should leave first and remove the Magic Circle. I’ll think of a way to save them.” “Understood.” The Protector
nodded.
Then, under his order, everyone hurriedly retreated. Soon, they were out of the stone cavern. Outside, the Protector knelt.
“Master Lucifer, my ancestor is a Senior General under His Majesty’s banner. My duty is to wait here and resurrect you.”
Lucifer gazed into the distance. His memories were still stuck in ancient times. He remembered the words his father said to him
before they parted.
‘Lucifer, I’ll be sealing you away. Sleep peacefully. By the time you awake, you’d have reached the
brightest era of our times. You do not belong to this era. You belong to the era countless millennia in the future.’
‘Father, I won’t let you down.”
Lucifer clenched his fists.
“Master, that person has a Supreme Token of the Demon Race,” the Protector said.
Lucifer nodded slightly and said, “It’s understandable. He must have attracted the attention of some among the Demon Race.
That token must have been given to him by a core member of the Demon Race. Pay no heed to him. We should leave at once.”
Then, Lucifer left alongside the members of the Demon Race.
James walked out of the camp. Seeing that everyone had left, he returned to the stone cavern.
As the Demon Race left, the Magic Circle disappeared. James, however, did not act impulsively. Instead, he waited outside and
waited for another day to pass.
Then, he released Henry, Delainey, and the cultivators who were being pursued from the Celestial Abode.
He looked at the cultivators and said coldly, “Since you’re safe now, you may leave. Do not tell anyone anything about the
Celestial Abode. Or else...”
