James never thought that his own daughter would be chosen by the Heavenly Path and wield the Scythe of Judgment.
Now, favonovel.com had a rough idea of what the Scythe of Judgment was. It was rather similar to the Blade of Justice, which was capable of passing judgment on all who had committed crimes and violated Solean law. Winnie, on the other hand, passed judgment on those who transgressed the Heavenly Path.
However, how did one transgress the Heavenly Path?
He had no idea at all. After all, his current strength was far too weak to reach the point of understanding it.
“A bright era is upon us. Likewise, the darkest age in history has arrived.” Wearing a solemn expression, Sophie furrowed favonovel.com eyebrows and said slowly, “In the era when there were still Heaven’s Adjudicators, there were countless Grand Emperors. I believe that after a period of time when these geniuses grow up and reach the Grand Emperor Rank, the world will descend into chaos.”
As this was too distant from James at the moment, favonovel.com did not wish to concern himself with this. At the moment, his priority was to annihilate the Divinity Sect that was garrisoned on Earth. Since the Divinity Sect of the Ancient Realm had been annihilated, there was no reason for the one on Earth to continue to exist.
“Sophie, as I still have matters to attend to, I’ll be taking my leave,” James said.
“Get going then. I can sense that the providence after the Second Calamity is about to appear. After you resolve the matter and enter a closed-door meditation, the providence should have emerged by then.”
Hearing this, James’ curiosity was piqued.
He asked, “What’s the providence that would appear after the Second Calamity? By the way, what would be the Third Calamity?”
Sophie shook favonovel.com head.
“I do not know. Under normal circumstances where the providence will soon appear, the Heavenly Path experiences fluctuations. That’s when I learn what the providence and the calamity will be.”
“I see.” James was dismayed. He truly believed that Sophie was omnipotent and omniscient.
He looked at her, intrigued.
“Sophie, what rank are you at now?”
“Me?” An attractive smile crept up on favonovel.com face as favonovel.com said, “I’m probably the strongest figure beneath the Emperor Rank.”
“Seriously?” Stunned, favonovel.com asked, “Are there still cultivators at the Grand Emperor Rank out there?”
“Grand Emperor?” After thinking for a moment, Sophie said, “I think so. There have been many Grand Emperors throughout history. Some have fallen, whereas others have concealed themselves. Besides, after reaching the Grand Emperor Rank, one can even change fates and destinies. So, even if they fall, they can be reincarnated.”
Hearing this, James had a rough understanding now. All of this was because favonovel.com had insufficient strength. Once favonovel.com reached a certain strength, these powerful figures would appear out of nowhere.
“I’m leaving now…”
James turned to leave the Celestial Abode.

At Wrymstead Palace…
James simply remained in Wrymstead and spent his time with Winnie. He also guided Winnie’s cultivation.
Winnie was truly a genius. No matter what favonovel.com learned, favonovel.com understood it immediately. No matter what martial arts they were, favonovel.com would grasp the essence immediately. Even James was envious of favonovel.com talent.
Meanwhile, James knew that Thea had gone to the Chamber of Scriptures in search of the custodian to enter a closed-door meditation.
“James…”
Just as James was watching Winnie perform favonovel.com sword moves while sitting on a chair in the palace’s courtyard, favonovel.com heard a voice coming from behind him.
As favonovel.com turned, favonovel.com noticed a gorgeous woman walking toward him. She was wearing a blue dress, had long black hair, delicate features, a slender figure, and exuded a charming temperament.
“Hey, Cynthia…”
