Female Novel
Chapter 2202
Boom!
A flash of lightning struck the stone pillar and then James.
When the lightning struck James, he could only feel pain so excruciating that even his soulshivered. Then, he let loose an anguished scream.
No one stepped forward to defend James, nor did anyone feel any sympathy toward him. After all,James was an earthling, a descendant of sinners. Their ancestors perished because of theearthlings’ ancestors’ betrayal.
After the first flash of lightning struck James, he already suffered grave injuries. However, DemonicEnergy immediately circulated throughout his body and healed his injuries.
Before he could react, the second flash of lightning struck him.
“Argh!” James cried out in anguish. His physical body and even his soul underwent agonizingtorture.
In the distance, Marcello furrowed her eyebrows and said, “Jace, are we just going to sit here andwatch?”novelbin
Wearing a calm expression, Jace said coldly, “I only need him alive. Besides, I believe he cansurvive this ordeal with that physical body of his. Once he completely gives up on the human race,it’ll be much easier for him to join our ranks.”
“But can he?” Marcello asked anxiously.
“Yes. He has no choice,” Jace said.
Marcello fell silent and turned to leave, unable to bear witness to James’ torture.
The footage of James’ trial was broadcasted live to the world. As they witnessed it, every humanbeing on Earth wept.
“Hang in there, James!”
“You can do this!”
…
Many offered words of encouragement.
Meanwhile, Thea, who was currently in Cansington, cried her eyes out upon seeing this. At thatmoment, she wanted to head over to Mount Bane and save James.
However, she did not lose her rationality.
James risked his life to save them. If she headed to Mount Bane, not only would she not be able tosave his life, but she would create even more trouble for him.
Upon seeing James being tortured, she clenched her fists, cursing, “The Ancient Realm and theDivinity Sect… Mark my words, I’ll have my revenge!”
Her expression was solemn. She silently swore to annihilate the Divinity Sect should James perishon Mount Bane.
In the beginning, James was able to resist the lightning strikes using his physical body. However, ashis Demonic Energy was slowly depleted, his injuries only worsened.
Soon, two weeks passed. Each day, James was struck by lightning repeatedly.
His body was horribly burned, and his Demonic Energy was completely depleted. James’ life washanging by a thread, and he constantly slipped in and out of consciousness.
Inside the Celestial Abode, Sophie knew what was happening to James. She furrowed hereyebrows and said, “He’ll die if this continues.”
The Spirit Tool glanced at her and said, “Lend him a helping hand, then.”
“But…” Sophie said, “You know who I am. How can I intervene just like that? Besides, he hasobtained the Infinity Steles. If I help him out, I will incur heavy Karma.”
The Spirit Tool said coolly, “James is the owner of the Jabari Celestial Abode in which you reside.All this while, you have accumulated great Karma while helping him.”
Sophie said, “I can release this Karma, and I have the ability to endure it.”
“Then help him out indirectly and send him away from where he is. If he dies, the Celestial Abodewill become masterless. Now that the remnants of Emperor Jabari have dispersed, it won’t be easyfor the Celestial Abode to find a new master.”
