The Almighty Dragon General

As long as James could help him escape, Lord Samsong was willing to give him anything. James taunted him. “Do you
remember taking away the Light of Acme and leaving me to face the powerful beast alone? I went through hell to kill that beast.”
Lord Samsong hurriedly explained himself, “You’ve got it all wrong! I actually wanted to go back to save you, but I got trapped in
a dangerous place and couldn’t escape. If I could leave, I would’ve definitely gone back and helped you kill that beast.”
James did not believe a word from Lord Samsong’s mouth. He spoke nonchalantly, Tm giving you two options.”
“What are they?” Lord Samsong looked at James.
James said, “I’ll leave you to fend for yourself. In your current state, there’s no way you can escape this place.”
Lord Samsong hurriedly asked, “What’s the second option?”
James replied, “Submit to me and obey my orders. If you betray me, don’t expect a single shred of mercy.”
“I...” Lord Samsong hesitated conflictingly. He was a Ninth Stage Lord, and the ruler of Triple Star Welkin which was one of the
Dark World’s Nine Heavens. Having to submit to another was a fate worse than death.
As he weighed his options, James turned around and left the area.
As soon as James had disappeared, Quiomars reapproached as a ferocious monster and charged toward Lord Samsong.
Terrified, Lord Samsong shouted hysterically, “Don’t go, Forty-nine! Don’t leave me! I’ll follow your orders! I’ll submit!”
James smirked, turned around, and walked forward. He instantly appeared before Lord Samsong and faked an attack against
Quiomars, who was disguised as a monster. Quiomars followed his cues and pretended to be blasted away.
James looked at Lord Samsong, sitting weakly on the ground, and said, “I’m warning you, if you dare to disobey me, it won’t end
well for you.”
After speaking, James raised his hand, and mysterious sigils materialized. The sigils sank into Samsong’s body.
A mighty Lord like Samsong immediately knew what the sigils were for. James now had control over his soul and would be
immediately notified if Samsong harbored
thoughts of betrayal. In that event, James could set off the sigil, and blow Samsong to bits instantly.

Samsong was terrified as he realized the consequences. However, there was no backing out at this point. He had no choice but
to comply with James.
Samsong immediately pledged his loyalty, “I won’t betray you.”
James raised his hand, and a dazzling light emerged from his palm. A large amount of Life Power poured out and was absorbed
into Samsong’s body. His injuries were healed instantly, and he regained his strength shortly after.
Samsong stood up, stretched his muscles, and asked, ” Master, this is a very strange place. Are you sure you can leave safely?”
James gently waved his hand and said, “You don’t need to address me as Master. My name is James. You can just call me by
name.”
Samsong replied, “Alright, Lord James.”
At that moment, Quiomars approached after returning to his original form. James hopped up and sat on Quiomars’ back.
Quiomars quickly galloped.
James said, “Just follow me, and you’ll get out of this formation safely.”
Samsong glanced around him and shuddered after seeing the lingering souls in the distance. He quickly followed behind James.
James rode on Quiomars’ back, raised his hand, and a beam of light burst forth from his fingers to bombard the lingering souls in
the distance.
“Agh...”
Despairing screams resounded in the air. The lingering souls trapped in the formations were obliterated. Samsong was terrified
after seeing James’ strength.
‘How strong is Lord James?’ thought Samsong.
