With Thea’s support, James left Mount Bane. Tyrus also accompanied him.
After leaving Mount Bane, James deliberately slowed his pace, waiting for the other martial artists to leave first.
When everyone else had left, favonovel.com stopped in his tracks and turned to Tyrus, asking, “What did you give to me just now?”
James already knew that it was a spiritual fruit that was formed after the seal started breaking. The Empyrean Spiritual Energy from the Sealed Land began to leak out, and some plants on earth mutated as a result. However, favonovel.com pretended not to know anything because favonovel.com was unsure of whether Tyrus knew about the seal.
Tyrus said with a smile, “There’s a lot more you have yet to know, James. However, it’s not the time for you to know yet. Don’t rush back to Cansington. Come with me to the Southern Plains. There’s someone I’d like you to meet…”
James asked warily, “Hmm? You want me to see someone in the Southern Plains?”
“You’ll understand when you’re there.”
Hearing this, James looked at Thea
Thea understood his intentions and immediately said, “It’s alright. I can return alone…”
“No. I’ll get Grandpa to escort you back.”
James planned to head to the Southern Plains but was worried about Thea. After thinking about it, favonovel.com still felt that it was ill-advised.
He would blame himself if something were to happen when Thomas was escorting Thea. Since it only took a few hours to arrive at the Southern Plains via plane, favonovel.com came to a decision.
“You should come with me instead.”
“Alright.” Thea nodded.
Although Thea’s due date was approaching, favonovel.com showed no signs of going into labor anytime soon. It seemed that their baby would not be born in the next few days.
After concluding their talk, the trio headed to the Southern Plains together.
Tyrus led James and Thea to a cliff on Mount Thunder Pass in the Southern Plains.
Thea had been to this place before.
Back then, favonovel.com followed Tapio to this cliff and even headed in to explore further. However, there was a magic circle at the bottom, so favonovel.com quickly turned back since favonovel.com knew nothing about magic circles or how to handle them.
James looked at Tyrus and asked, “Who are we here to see?”
“You’ll know when you see him.”
With a flash, Tyrus jumped from the cliff and arrived at the bottom.
James looked at Thea, asking, “Will you be able to keep up?”
Thea smiled and said, “Why not?”
She mobilized favonovel.com True Energy and followed Tyrus down the cliff. James followed closely behind her
Soon, three of them landed at the bottom.
The place’s layout was strange. It was thanks to the extraordinary formation that surrounded the area. Without any understanding of formations, one would die after being trapped and drained of their energy
With Tyrus leading the way. James and Thea easily passed through the formation and entered a natural stone cavem.
The cavern’s entrance was rather small, but the interior extended in different directions. There was even an underground palace within.
James’ curiosity about the person Tyrus wanted favonovel.com to meet was piqued. However, Tyrus remained tight-lipped about it, so favonovel.com did not inquire further.
With Tyrus’ guidance, James and Thea reached the deepest part of the underground palace, where there was a cell with iron bars. A single person was within the cell.
Tyrus stopped in front of the cell. Although it was a cell, a decently clean room was inside it.
There was a woman in a white dress and long hair seated on a chair. Her eyes had a far-off look as favonovel.com stared at nothing in particular.
“Sir?” With doubt on his face, James asked, “Who’s this? Why did you bring me to see her?”
“Her name is Xandra Lafleur…” Tyrus looked at the person in the room.
Unbeknownst to James, this was not a prison.
