“Come in.”
James pushed the door open and walked in.
Dolph was reading a book in his study room.
James walked in.
A while later, Dolph put his book down and looked at James before pointing at a table and saying calmly, “Have a seat.”
“Alright.”
James took a seat.
“Father, the gathering is tomorrow, and I’ve been uneasy recently. How would the Great Elder explain to the other races?”
James was concerned about this issue.
Dolph was the Patriarch, and he must have discussed matters with Youri. Perhaps he knew what Youri would say during the
gathering.
Hearing this, Dolph’s expression turned grim as he said, “I’ve tried looking for him multiple times. However, he refused to meet
me. I don’t know what’s on his mind, nor do I know what he would say to the world.”
“Father, what if...”
James said, “Hypothetically, what if the Great Elder really did everything? What if he has really reached the Omniscience Path’s
Ninth Stage, and he desperately needs the keys to obtain the Blithe Omniscience from Soren Plamen? What should we do?”
Hearing this, Dolph fell into deep contemplation.
He had thought about this before. As the Patriarch of the Dooms, he had to prepare for all kinds of scenarios.
“Wynnstan, what will you do if you are the Patriarch?” Dolph ignored James’ question and posed him a question instead.
James was taken aback. After some contemplation, he said, “If I’m the Patriarch, I won’t hold the Great Elder accountable if he’s
doing this for the sake of our race, even if we have to fight against the rest of the Greater Realms. The current balance of power
has lasted for too long. It’s time for a race to step forward and lead the Ten Great Races or even the Greater Realms.”
James answered Dolph’s question truthfully. These were his honest thoughts. Since his objective was to infiltrate and throw the
Greater Realms into chaos, this was the perfect opportunity to do so.
“Reckless!” Dolph reprimanded and cautioned him, “Always remember, Wynnstan... Without absolute strength, you have to hide
your ambitions.”
“But the Dooms have already acquired such strength.”
James argued, “The Grand Patriarch’s cultivation base is unparalleled, and he could reach the Caelum Acme Rank anytime. The
Great Elder has reached the Omniscience Path’s Ninth Stage and obtained an indestructible physical body. Father, you are now
at the peak of the Terra Acme Rank and could cross into the Caelum Acme Rank anytime. Besides, we have many other Grand
Elders at the Acme Rank. What other race possesses such strength that could rival us? With our strength, we can annihilate
anything that stands in our way.”
“You are dismissed.”
Dolph simply waved his hand slightly.
“Understood.”
James stood up and turned to leave.
Dolph watched him leave.
After he left, a shadow silently appeared in the room. The shadow was illusory, and her age and gender could not be discerned.,
“What do you think, Patriarch?” The shadow spoke in a hoarse voice. Even so, anyone could tell that she was a woman.
Dolph said, “Wynnstan is too young. He can only see the superficial. Indeed, our race is able to crush all other races. However,
even since the Primordial Realm’s age, no major races have ever fought against each other. Throughout the Epochs, many
powerful figures have been born into different races. Their numbers are unknown. So, our strength relative to the rest is only on
paper. Besides, the Great Elders of the other races are no pushovers, and our race is not united as one.”
Dolph sighed.
The hoarse voice came, “The Minor Patriarch is indeed too young. He doesn’t know how cruel the world is. Perhaps he will
understand once he encounters trouble when he becomes the Patriarch.”
