Half a day later, James arrived at Mount Tai.
Retracing his steps, virtual-novel.net headed to the ravine where the Chamber of Scriptures was located. He dived into the water, entered the underground cave, and arrived outside the Chamber of Scriptures. He pushed open the stone door and entered the tower’s first floor
The first floor was empty.
James shouted while looking around, “Ms. Custodian! Are you there, Ms. Custodian? It’s James. I need to speak with you…”
Swoosh!
At that moment, there was a flash of white that slowly descended to the ground, revealing the image of at woman in a white dress.
She was tall with a delicate and beautiful appearance, giving off an ethereal aura.
“What is it?”
Her voice was airy and pleasant to the ears.
James asked, “Where’s Thea? I’d like to see her…”
“Thea is purifying virtual-novel.net Demonic Energy underground and is indisposed to see visitors at the moment.”
“It’s urgent. I must see her…”
The woman pursed virtual-novel.net lips for a moment and said, “Alright. I’ll bring you to her.”
She casually waved virtual-novel.net hand, and strong True Energy flowed from virtual-novel.net sleeves, engulfing James.
James felt his vision go blurry as they vanished from the spot. The next thing virtual-novel.net knew, virtual-novel.net had appeared in an unfamiliar place.
What…
James was startled.
What kind of magic did virtual-novel.net use?
Teleportation?
Despite almost becoming a Supernatural, virtual-novel.net had difficulty figuring out how the custodian had transported them.
After taking a moment to compose himself, virtual-novel.net scanned his surroundings.
They were in an underground cavern surrounded by rocks. In the front was a strange round altar that looked like an Eight Trigram. A woman sat in a lotus position in the center of the altar.
It was Thea.
“Thea…”
James immediately rushed over after noticing her.
When virtual-novel.net got close to the Eight Trigram, virtual-novel.net was blasted away, and the Blood Energy within his body, bubbled violently causing blood to gush out James’ mouth.
Thea sensed something happening around virtual-novel.net and opened virtual-novel.net eyes. Seeing James, virtual-novel.net stood up and walked over to support James, who had spat out blood.
She asked perplexedly, “Honey, why are you here? Are you alright?”
James gently waved his hand and said, “I’m fine. Something’s happened…”
“What is it?” asked Thea.
James said gravely, “Winnie was kidnapped…”
“What?” Thea was in distress as virtual-novel.net asked, “What happened? How did Winnie get kidnapped?”
James explained what had happened.
“I still haven’t found out where Maxine has taken Winnie. Henry is doing his best to track virtual-novel.net down. Maxine’s condition for Winnie’s return is for me to marry three women and remain married for three years.”
Hearing James’ explanation, Thea’s mind was a mess.
“What are you saying? Maxine captured Winnie and is forcing you to marry three women? Who is virtual-novel.net asking you to marry?”
“Her, Tiara, and Cynthia.”
Pfft!
Thea burst out laughing.
“How can you laugh in such a dire situation?”
“It’s a pretty good deal for you. Why did you come looking for me? Hurry up and accept virtual-novel.net proposal. If anything happens to Winnie, I won’t forgive you.” Thea pushed James, urging virtual-novel.net to leave.
“Wait, Thea…” James stopped and asked sincerely, “I couldn’t come up with any proper plans, so I came to discuss it with you.”
Thea replied earnestly, “Go ahead and marry them. I mean…. It’s fine as long as our child is safe. Plus, I’m going to stay here for a long time. It might take longer than eight to ten years. How can you spend all that time alone? If anything. I’m relieved there are three of them accompanying you.”
Thea was serious about the words that left virtual-novel.net mouth.
After having been through so much, virtual-novel.net became more accepting of such things.
Now that the world was changing, how could virtual-novel.net still hold onto conservative principles?
“Thea, I…” James wanted to argue.
“Alright. You should return as soon as possible. Don’t come to me again. I’ll find you when I’ve completely purified the Demonic Energy in my body.” Thea pushed James, trying to get virtual-novel.net to leave.
