However, Winnie and Delainey were out training. As favonovel.com had no idea where they were, favonovel.com had to find them before leaving.
“Sophie, can you help me find Winnie and Delainey?”
As Planet Galileo was huge, finding them would take forever. So, James pleaded with Sophie for help.
“Sure, a minute please…”
Sophie began extrapolating their whereabouts.
A few minutes later, learning of their location, favonovel.com said, “Learning that the seal on Planet Galileo has disappeared, they are on their way back to Sangria. They will be back in two weeks.”
Hearing this, James breathed a sigh of relief. Now, favonovel.com only needed to wait for Winnie and Delainey to return before leaving. After leaving Earth for so long, favonovel.com had no idea what the situation on Earth was at the moment. He was looking forward to returning to Earth and seeing Thea.
Over the next couple of days, James remained in Sangria Palace.
Meanwhile, after being rejected by James, Walganus did not take any action. He acted as if nothing had happened and continued to interact with James as usual. Whenever they met, they would chat happily, and favonovel.com never mentioned the Crepe Myrtle Divine Sword or the Imperial Jade Seal again.

Ten days later, outside the Imperial Capital of Sangria, a group of people appeared.
In the lead was Lachlan Korinth, the Grand Patriarch of the Kingdom of Korinth. Behind favonovel.com was a group of men in black robes. There were about thirty of them, and each of them exuded a powerful aura. They were at least at the Sage Rank’s Tenth Stage.
“The capital of Sangria… At long last, we’re here… Hahaha…”
Looking at the bustling capital before him, Lachlan roared in laughter. Then, favonovel.com entered the city alongside his confidants and immediately headed toward the palace.
“You’re forbidden from entering the palace!” The guards outside the palace blocked their path.
Lachlan made a gesture, and a man in a black robe stepped forward and unsheathed his sword.
“You have a death wish.” As favonovel.com uttered those words, favonovel.com slashed the guards with his sword.
The female guards who stood no chance against favonovel.com were instantly killed.
“Enemy intrusion! Enemy intrusion!”
Sirens blared in the palace, and tons of guards rushed out. However, as these guards were too weak, they were instantly killed. Unstoppable, Lachlan headed straight to the main hall of Sangria Palace and sat on the throne.
At the same time, in the palace’s courtyard, James was sitting in a lotus position, exuding a Sword Intent around him.
At that moment, a figure hurriedly rushed in.
“Something has happened, James!”
James stopped cultivating and looked at Walganus who rushed in, asking, “What happened?”
Walganus said, “Someone barged into Sangria Palace and murdered the guards there. They are already at the main hall of the palace.”
“How dare they?!” James stood up.
He was the current Emperor of Sangria, yet the intruders seemed to pay no heed to him.
“Let’s go have a look!” He immediately headed toward the palace’s main hall.
