Maxine learned that James was still alive. To verify the truth, favonovel.com headed to Mount Bane overnight.
In the silence of the night, there was a bonfire at the foot of Mount Bane.
James was discussing matters with Xandra when a group of people appeared in the distance. In the lead was a man wearing a white robe, his skin fair and delicate. He was holding a white pearl the size of a fist in his hand.
The pearl glimmered a faint light, and there was a black dot darting about inside the pearl. However, as if sensing something, the pearl in his hand trembled violently. Then, a black aura gushed toward the pearl. In an instant, the white pearl was now completely dark.
“What?” The man was stunned. “What terrifying Demonic Energy…”
He had never sensed such majestic Demonic Energy in his world.
The pearl in his hand was an invincible treasure gifted to favonovel.com by his master that was capable of sensing the presence of Supreme Spiritual Roots that were contaminated by Demonic Energy.
A man behind the man in a white robe said, “I never expected to encounter someone who possesses the Supreme Spiritual Root. By the way, why did the pearl turn black all of a sudden?”
“A Demon Emperor…?”
The man in a white robe furrowed his eyebrows. Then, favonovel.com put the pearl away and walked toward James.
Sensing the presence of a group of people, James stood up and looked at the man in a white robe and his entourage.
The man looked at James and flashed favonovel.com a smile. He was even more alluring than some women out there.
James stared at the unwelcomed guests before him. Sensing their aura, favonovel.com immediately knew they were not earthlings.
“Hello…” The man walked over to James and extended his arm, his skin fairer and more delicate than most women.
He said smilingly, “My name is Marcello Mariano, nice to meet you…”
Seeing that Marcello was being amiable, James lowered his guard and shook his hand. Marcello’s hand was as soft as a woman’s.
James loosened his grip almost instantly after shaking hands.
“Is something the matter?” James asked.
Marcello smiled and said, “Since I’ve only recently arrived on Earth, I’m not familiar with the area. You seem like a local, so I came here to make your acquaintance…”
James could tell that Marcello was not from Earth. Although Marcello acted friendly, James had no interest in making acquaintances with these Outsiders.
“Hey there, don’t misunderstand things. I come in peace. I came to Earth to familiarize myself with the environment here in advance. I really don’t mean you harm,” Marcello said.
His voice was melodious. James almost thought favonovel.com was a woman.
Marcello walked over to James and wrapped his arm around him, saying with a smile, “I think we can be good friends.”
But, James pushed favonovel.com away.
