Chapter 2521
Some familiar faces appeared in James’ view – The Callahans, led by Lex Callahan and the others; The Cadens, led by Bennett
Caden; The men from Japura led by his grandfather, Thomas Caden, and some of his subordinates; His grandfather Langston
Lafleur, His uncle Tyrus Lafleur, Callan Maverick, Delainey Cabral, the Blithe King, and many other acquaintances. Even the Elite
Eight of Wyrmstead, Scarlett Brooks, and the rest were here. Those who were brought into the Celestial Abode had some form
of connection with James. Back then, as James was concerned about their safety, he took them in.
“James.”
“James.”
“Dragon King.”
“Hey, James.”
Many greeted him, to which James returned the greetings. He came here to catch up with them and drink to his heart’s content.
“Prepare the wine! We shall drink to our heart’s content tonight!” James said smilingly.
Then, everyone cheered for James as they entered the village. For the whole day, James remained inside the Celestial Abode,
eating and drinking to his heart’s content with his friends and family.
After catching up with them, James left the Celestial Abode.
When he returned to the outside world, it was already the next morning.
He walked out of the room. As the sunlight shone on him, he felt a warm and comfortable sensation.
At that moment, a group of people walked in. Armour-clad with swords at their waists, these people exuded a powerful aura.
They were the guards of the Labhranns. As this was the divine realm, their rank was at least at the Divine Rank.
They greeted James respectfully, “Mr. Caden, the Patriarch sent us here to escort you to the main hall.”
“Mhm.”
James nodded. Then, with the guards’ guidance, James left his room and headed toward the Labhranns main hall.
When he arrived, there were already many living beings gathered there, many of whom James could not recognize. Meanwhile,
Txomin, the Patriarch of the Labhranns, was in the main seat, while Brielle was standing by his side at a slightly lower elevation.
Upon seeing James, Txomin hurriedly stood up and said smilingly, “Mr. Caden, you’re finally here. Did you rest well last night?”
“I suppose,” James spoke half-heartedly.
Last night, Txomin had gone looking for James. He wanted to question him about certain issues, but James was not in his room.
So, he missed the opportunity to ask James about Xandros.
Since there were many living beings here, Txomin refrained from asking, Instead, he said, “Since you have obtained the
Demonic Spiritual Herb, you’ll be able to marry Brielle after defeating her From today onward, you’ll be considered a member of
the Labhranns. As long as you marry Brielle, you’ll have our protection.”
Brielle lowered her head shyly.
Meanwhile, James was conflicted.
Marry Brielle?
Impossible.
However, if he did not agree to this, the other clans would definitely court him regardless. That would be troublesome indeed.
Since trouble was inevitable, he might as well battle against Brielle and purposefully lose to her.
“I understand.” James said smilingly, “The Labhranns are a powerful clan. With your protection, I’ll definitely thrive!”
