Chapter 2263


    Marquis floated above the Ancient n’s Mount Trinvard, and Demonic Energy surrounded his


    body.


    ck Demonic Energy covered the entire sky and formed strange ancient characters, each


    containing strange but extraordinary power.


    At that moment, a bloodied Farley climbed out of the ruins.


    Earlier he acted a bit carelessly. His strength had not fully returned, so he should have hidden for a


    while and waited until his strength returned to its optimum state before revealing himself.


    His current state was still unable to resist the Curse Magic, and he was no match for Marquis.


    All the powerhouses gathered in the Ancient n could not resist the Curse Magic’s overwhelming


    burden on their bodies. Only one person was unaffected by it, and that was James.


    James knew the situation had taken a turn for the worse.


    After Farley was defeated, he quietly snuck away.


    Not even Marquis noticed someone had fled because his Curse Magic had already spread


    throughout the Ancient n’s territory. From his perspective, nobody could escape.


    James quietly made his way out of the mountain range where the Ancient n was located.


    He was safe and could leave unscathed.


    James looked at the broken formation from outside the Ancient n’s perimeter.


    He could see the situation in the Ancient n through the cracks in the formation and noticed the


    ck Demonic Energy hovering over the entire area.


    James said in resignation, “I’m sorry, Sir Yoan. I don’t want to die needlessly. I still have a lot more


    things I need to do. My wife and daughter are waiting for me on Earth. I have to return to them alive.


    Please forgive me for leaving without a goodbye.”


    James knew that even if he had trained for another 100 years, he would still not be able to defeat


    Marquis.


    He could only escape untouched because he had a Demonic Body, which was not affected by


    Demonic Energy or Curse Magic.


    Sophie’s voice came from the Celestial Abode. “Are you going to just watch them die, James?”


    “All of the Ancient Realm’s powerhouses are gathered there. If you leave, they’re all going to wiped


    out. Then, the entire Ancient Realm will fall into Marquis’ hands.”


    James replied helplessly, “What else can I do? I’m weak and stand no chance of winning against


    someone of such a high rank. He can kill with just the snap of a finger.”


    Sophie’s voice chimed in again. “You can still try to do something. Marquis is of the Demon Race.


    You happen to have a body crafted by a supreme Demonic Lotus. Moreover, your Supernatural


    Power is also a Demonic Lotus. You can use it to try to repel Marquis.”


    James said, “I don’t want to take any risks. If this n fails, I’ll die like a dog.”


    Sophie replied, “If you fail, I’ll find a way to help you escape. You’ll regret leaving for the rest of your


    life. It might even haunt you in the future. It’ll be very detrimental to your cultivation.”


    Hearing this, James fell into deep thought.


    At that moment, Marquis’ subordinates had already reached Mount Trinvard’s peak.


    All the powerhouses on the mountain resisted the Curse Magic but could not break free from it.


    Their cultivation bases were sealed, and they were trapped.


    Marquis descended from the sky, looked at the incapacitated powerhouses, and a smirk formed


    under his mask.


    “My god, Farley. You’re pretty impressive to have actually dispelled the Demonic Energy from a


    Curse Magic. I underestimated you. You had your little scheme against me, but it’s a pity your


    strength hasn’t fully recovered. If you were at your full strength and we had a fair fight, I might have


    lost to you.”


    Marquis’ hoarse voice grated in everyone''s ears.


    Farley’s cultivation base had been sealed, and he could only sit in a lotus position on the ground.


    Despite the circumstances, Farley remained calm. He replied, “If you want to kill me, go ahead.


    What’s with the unnecessary chatter? Do you really think you can conquer the Ancient Realm?


    Keep dreaming. After you destroy the Ancient n, our n’s hidden powerhouses will rise against


    you. When that happens, you''ll regret you ever did this.”


    Marquisughed. “Haha! If I were scared, I wouldn''t have attacked the Ancient n in the first


    ce. Do you think your n is the only one with powerhouses from the Primordial Age?


    “...And you, Welkin Academy’s headmaster.”


    Marquis looked at Welkin Academy’s headmaster and said coldly, “You like to act all high and


    mighty, so I’ll kill you first.”

    He raised his hand, and ck Demonic Energy formed in his palm.


    Just when he was about to strike, a voice yelled out.


    “Stop!”
