James was perplexed by Yegor’s behavior. He initially thought Yegor was afraid Tirta would do something drastic against him because of the Demonic Spirit. However, it became apparent the situation was far more complicated..
After a prolonged silence, Yegor said calmly, “How much do you know about the Demonic Spirit?”
James replied, “As I mentioned, I didn’t know him before this. My understanding of him is limited.”
Yegor turned abruptly, fixed his eyes on James, and said, “Then how do you know my master sacrificed to seal the Demonic Spirit?”
James was caught off guard by Yegor’s question. The information he possessed was from Lesia, an existence unknown to Yegor. James felt slightly hesitant about disclosing this secret.
He did not doubt Yegor’s trustworthiness but he remained unaware of Lesia’s true identity. Therefore, James did not want to be careless and disclose unverified information.
James smiled faintly, and answered, “You seemed to have forgotten I’ve been to the Ying World. I encountered Clayton’s master, and he mentioned the Demonic Spirit.
Yegor scrutinized James intently, his gaze growing sharper by the moment. It was evident he had doubts about James’ response.
James asked abruptly, “Why do you appear so uneasy at the mention of the Demonic Spirit? It was only a remnant soul.”
Sensing James’ hesitance, Yegor sighed, “Even a mere trace of its remnant soul has the potential to endanger even the Zymurgy’s supreme beings, also leading to catastrophic outcomes for you and others.
James was taken aback by the revelation.
Yegor pressed further, “Considering what you’ve told me, Wesley was willing to give you the Wohrdaemon Tower in exchange for the Yuraeceon Genesis Bell. So why did you refuse?”
“I already provided my reasons.” James furrowed his brows.
James said calmly, “She knows my wife and I will seek vengeance. To achieve that I would need the strength to break through the Thirty-Three Heavens. She knew I wouldn’t miss any opportunity to improve my strength.
“So when the Demonic Spirit’s remnant soul’s appearance was a trap. As soon as we use its powers, she could immediately call upon the supreme beings to eliminate use under the pretext of exterminating the Demonic Spirit and secure her position as Tai Chi.
James paused momentarily, then sneered, “It’s a cunning tactic. She took a step back but was secretly luring us into a trap by exploiting human greed and resentment.”
Yegot looked at him and said, “I’ll go look to Wesley and request to have your Yuraeceon Genesis Bell traded for the Wohrdaemon Tower. That’s basically another Genesis World.”
James shook his head and abruptly asserted, “No. Since Tai Chi set up such a big scheme, how can I back down now?”
Shocked, Yegor asked, “No way. Are you insisting to keep the Demonic Spirit?”

"Good things take time" Lol yeah, a hundred and fifty trillion years, apparently....
How was Sheldon Jame's first disciple? Wasn't the Black Eagle King the first? Where has he disappeared to all this time?...
Unbelievable... I thought James was rid of the annoying "honey, darling" Thea by going to the Demonic Realm, but now she's gone there too *puke*...
This Thea is the most narcissistic woman of all, constantly interrupting James's cultivation, getting in the way of his plans and slowing him down. He was well rid of her but the author went bonkers a few hundred chapters into the story and decided to pair her back with James.. Yuck!...
Thea doesn't deserve James, it so sad he loves her...
Thank you so much for all the effort. I love all the stories I've read. I hope to continue reading "The Almighty Dragon General" story. 😊...
